A guy who lived with us a few months moved to Ireland and left a few Fossil watches behind. I wanted to look up what models they were and found this fucking eyesore on their website. 450 bucks man.

A Hulk themed Fossil watch. It's the brightest green and purple you've ever seen. It's frankly quite difficult to look at much less discern what is going on.

The odyssey reigniting my love for Greek mythology has reacquainted me with some of my favorite aspects. Namely, the fact these stories have been around for 3000 years means every character is fully fleshed out. The characters belong to nobody so their stories are written by committee.

What is your favorite example of when the cheap version of a product is legit better than the expensive one?

here's a fun lil exercise for cis people: how many articles would a publication have to print calling for your extermination before you would expect people who care about you to stop giving them money? and how would you feel if their excuse for still supporting them is some fuckass crossword puzzle?

I wish you could understand how much these feel like a monotesticle’d scrotum.

A taro mochi in my hand. It looks like a disembodied scrotum covered in flour.

This is a barely changed quote from Hillel, from the Talmud. Moreover, I am not saying this is true to every Jew. This is what Judaism is, to me. Take a breath.

The William Davidson Talmud
There was another incident involving one gentile who came before Shammai and said to Shammai:
Convert me on condition that you teach me the entire Torah while I am standing on one foot. Shammai pushed him away with the builder's cubit in his hand. This was a
common measuring stick and Shammai was a builder by trade. The same gentile came before Hillel. He converted him and said to him: That
which is hateful to you do not do to another; that is the entire Torah, and the rest is its interpretation. Go study.

"Making the world a better place, tikkun olam -- that's the whole thing. That's Judaism. All the rest is commentary." Sorry, but this is just the inverse of "Only True Jews Are Zionist". It's "No True Scotsman" BS.

Bathroom stalls are giving folks privacy. There's only one problem: I can't see what they're doing in there.

So… they’re working

My daughter came up to me with one of her flash cards for practicing her numbers. "I just found the most wonderful thing!" *holds up the 69 card*

One of my wife’s core memories was being babysat at 4 years old while her parents were at the theatre to watch Speed. When she was about to go to sleep, her parents got home, burst into her room and said “get up, you HAVE to see this movie” and they all went back to see it.

is there some future competitive advantage with college admissions if you deafened your child to Ludwig Göransson

I can't tell you how many products I've bought off amazon which turn to shit within six months and when I go to leave a bad review, the product is just gone and sold under some new name. Never buy shit by RASPSIUSP or HOMEIKA or whatever. It's super not worth it.

The amount of reading you have to do on Reddit to background check any purchase over $50 is wild. Side note: you absolutely cannot trust Amazon reviews because sellers routinely give away free product and cash in exchange for five star reviews.

Appropriate air quotes because the most infuriating part about Americans debating "lockdown" is that it simply never happened. Having to pick up your Applebees and eat it on the sectional does not count. There wasn't even a brief moment where "everything" was closed. That's not real.

if you hated covid "lockdowns" try long covid

My theory is The Sirens were singing Resonance by HOME. I mean wouldn’t you freak out if you’d only ever heard flutes and drums your whole life?

My daughter regularly walks into our room and wakes me by prying my eyes open with her little fingers and droning "GOOD MORNING DADDY"

I watch a lot of horrors and lemme tell ya: no one prepares you for how creepy it is for your toddler to just walk into your room at night Especially as THEY ARE SO QUIET

never thought short form video would be able to capture a type of humor i can only describe as “the far side-esque” but this comes close.
