100%. Seagulls are such dicks. For me, it's their sense of entitlement. It's absolutely insufferable.

Absolutely. The orderliness mocks and humiliates me. 😞

Lit.

Those clear/gray zippered storage containers on the top shelf in the 'After' photo look very handy indeed.

It wasn’t a 'bullet on his neck' that killed Kirk.

He had recent methamphetamine use & fentanyl intoxication — along with hypertension & coronary artery disease. Kirk was also suspected of having used a counterfeit $20 bill at a store just prior to the event so… basically deserved it, amiright.

Ah yes… the eternal question for advertising any product that has an inherent, adolescent 'snicker-factor'. Does one lean into it, or does one attempt to ignore this snicker-factor by choosing instead more clinical, austere ad copy? 🤷‍♂️

That said, 'Butt Shower Experience' is not too bad an effort. 🤔

Sadly, one of the poorer efforts in the James Bond franchise. The best part about this film remains its theme song (Duran Duran).

Anyhow, this scene immediately called to mind the one below (filmed 2 years later). Evidently Brian De Palma and David Mamet were James Bond fans. 🤷‍♂️ hehe

(2.) I missed this neologism back in 2022. Having just encountered it, what came to mind was how nicely its definition captures 21ˢᵗ century America's decline & fall (𝘪.𝘦. the rat-fucking of the 'end-user' (American citizens) by the 'platform's' (U.S. government) enthrall to predatory Capitalism).

(2.) That someone would even 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 guidance on how to prepare a lemon for juicing already puts us at 14/10; but the fact that they 'intuited' the answer to be 𝘭𝘦𝘯𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘸𝘪𝘴𝘦… well, I can't tell you how 𝘥𝘦𝘦𝘱𝘭𝘺 satisfying that is to me.

(𝘗.𝘚. The solution is pictured RIGHT ON THE FUCKING BOX.)
