Remember to make time for criticism of your enemies in between criticizing your friends

Sun Chips sound super gross but there's an inner voice demanding that I get some. I'm not sending my husband out for powdered roofing shingles.

You know how a new car immediately loses value when it leaves the lot and depreciates nonstop from there but generally fares better if you protect it from the elements? Opening a bag of potato chips starts a similar clock. Clip that bag!

Hitting a pipe loaded with the scooped-out contents of the blunt (real tobacco) I accidentally bought. You can't spell "PTO" without the letters P, O, and T. Dusting this off for the occasion.

I know it’s the most obvious thing in the world but it’s really sad that so many people have absolutely no desires or dreams in life except to accumulate money and our entire world is becoming a fucking pit because of it

Who's gonna tell them about phone books

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

I used to spend the equivalent of a car payment on on-demand car shares. So convenient, no upkeep.

I used to think people just didn’t understand what Columbus did but now I think some are really attached to him (as opposed to other worthy italians to celebrate) because their whole thing is not only getting away with doing horrible things but forcing everyone to praise them for being horrible
