dude came up to me in the street claiming he needed $ for the bus because his car broke down but I recognized him as the same dude I gave $ too like a month ago for the same supposed reason so I told him I heard his story already and he did NOT appreciate that

my single favorite part of the many SAW movies is in SAW 3D when they flashback to a younger (still alive) John Kramer and wardrobe dressed him like "how do you do fellow kid serial killers"

People from outside Ireland occasionally ask me, "Why is Bono, an international music titan from Ireland, not all that loved in Ireland?". The answer in its entirety is a complex one, but "He sent Dolly Parton a birthday cake and put his own name on it" goes a long way to summing it up.

obv the big headline here is “look what you made me do” in re extrajudicial murder but also: why is he wearing Homer Simpson Reading In Bed glasses

most anxiety i had about political indoctrination after seeing my kid's elementary school pals doing jokes about joe biden being brain damaged was dispelled by watching them do charlie kirk impressions and fall to the ground
The popularity of brainrot Charlie Kirk/Jeffrey Epstein memes on TikTok etc have made me think hard about how much of the perceived shift right of young people was irony-poisoning.

Not 100% of, but a lot of it. Dems were the Be Nice party, Trump was the Shitposts and Memes candidate.

shout out to Dan McQuade, who took me up on an offer to see Hannibal Buress at the Troc, pulled out his phone to record the Bill Cosby joke, and through the butterfly effect of the internet sent Bill Cosby to prison and kickstarted the #MeToo movement. He was one of the kindest guys I’ve ever met.
