I was so sure someone else would have got there first, but I think I am legitimately the first person on this site to have called an AI clone a sloppelganger.

Sometimes I'll see a thing and be like "I simply don't have the energy to get as into that as it deserves" and sort of make the conscious choice to bounce off it.

Maybe I'm stupid, but this is common for diplomatic gifts, no? Like, you get to keep the chocolate and MAYBE the tie clip, but the big ticket stuff is "for the people" and gets put on display somewhere.

Had a dream that there was a Discworld character named "Feather" who was a wolf person who braided and tufted her fur into "feathers" so she could live with the bird people, and there was a huge hullabaloo about whether this was A) good and B) deliberate trans representation from Sir Pterry

I can't believe they're going to kill Ponce de Leon

I've had the Sanford and Son theme song stuck in my head and awful lot for somebody's never seen Sanford and Son

Turning left is always either too reckless or too cautious, and in either situation it puts too much vulnerability and emotional instability on one or both parties for a first date.

I used to think the pipe weapon from Clue (and crucially the Clue books) was a smoking pipe, and dedicated a lot of bandwidth figuring out how to beat someone to death with a meerschaum.

God, I'm still so mad Dungeon Settlers had to go and fail at the final hurdle with AI localization. Rimworld slapped over a dungeon crawler releasing the literal day I was about to have a bunch of time off work? It's like it was made for me personally.

I just don't buy "pedophile protector" as an insult. It's clunky and you're adding a word with no punch in the name of alliteration. Just call them pedophiles! Who cares! There's no reason to do what they're doing if they're not also pedophiles!

We're going to reinvent court eunuchs from first principles by 2035

Once every 3-4 years I go "surely I'm misremembering how little salt that shit had. Surely it would be closed if it's as bad as I'm remembering" and trick myself into trying it again.

You ever wonder if being in The Wiggles post Bluey feels a bit like being Francis Fukuyama on September 12th?

Hate it when you get a medium ticket kids play item (most recent example a pop-up play tent) and it comes with $1.30 worth of plastic accessories. Who thinks this is a value add?

That guy is going to be so confused about what green eggs and ham tastes like when it hasn't been soaked in seawater.

The only good thing David French and David Frum have ever done is decide to be shitty in ways that largely overlap so you don't need to waste energy remembering which is which.

Didn't realize my doctor was using some fuckass AI transcription service at my last appointment and I asked if I needed any kind of booster with measles being on the rise again and now my chart says I'm not vaccinated against measles.

It’s so funny when people are like “sure you’re an abolitionist now but wait until you’re the victim of a property crime.” Buddy, the most useful thing the police have ever done for property crime is put the form you need to submit to your insurance online.

"As a pedestrian, I support them more than the oblivious drivers on the roads in pedestrian filled areas. They’re less likely to kill me," one Westword reader says about dirt bikes on Denver's streets. https://www.westword.com/opinion/denver-preapring-laws-against-dirt-bikes-some-unmoved-40914367/

War is making mistakes at each other until one of you stops being able to send enough soldiers and weapons (and food).

Oh damn, a website and everything? Made by real people who haven't cooked their brains thinking about kids genitals and everything?

5 bucks this is Evangelical crankery about porn

Best part of making pancakes is realizing that I've completely forgotten how to make pancakes.

I swear I'm not a bad cook, but every time I make pancakes it takes me a dozen tries to get one that wouldn't get me taken behind a Denny's and shot.

This one always makes me giggle

If you need a honking laugh

Ebike that lets you hot swap batteries.

If the police actually enforced firework bans it would be a good thing and also more people would hate cops.

Suburban cities like to say "use alternate transport" when all they really mean is "use someone else's parking lot."

só canetada

relevant to an email i just got

It's going to so funny for Galatzine when Sheep Detectives makes more money than He-Man

Snooze wouldn't be worth it for no wait and half the price. IHOP tier food that's somehow one of our defining breakfast spots.

How do these people not notice this is clearly a different guy in every picture?

Big hoodie and little shorts.
