Yeah, it was quite the scene. My girlfriend’s friend was screaming right back at her and was about to get in a fist fight with the woman. Her BF had to hold her back.

On a 9th grade trip to six flags, we were riding the brand-new Titan roller coaster, and my girlfriend at the time decided to ride with her best friend while I rode with the friends BF. We rode the train after, and when we got off she was standing on the platform covered in blood getting screamed at by some woman who had been riding behind her claiming that my GF had bled all over her on the ride. It turned out that someone at the very front of the ride got hit in the face with a bird on the first big drop and sprayed blood all over everyone behind them the rest of the ride.

Sounds like some “Type 3” fun. Great story.

Nope. But my friend snorted sour skittles powder on a dare. The aftermath was like he had been pepper sprayed.

Probably switched to phone gaming.

Regarding the “market tripled in size” I assume that means the amount of sales not users. So fewer people playing them, but they are buying more games.

I suppose this is one way to keep the CIA spy drones from becoming E-waste when they introduce the new models.

Nah, I called you a fucking toaster, you fucking toaster.

Only if something actually interesting happened. Interesting enough for me to still care about it once I walk out the office door. I think it irritates my wife that I don’t have more to tell her about my workday. But for me, I pretty much just mentally flip a switch when work is done, and don’t give a shit about it until 9am the next work day. I say this as someone who generally likes their job. I’m also lucky to work somewhere with no drama.

On the other hand, I have a coworker who has several 20+ minute phone calls with his wife throughout the day, where they tell each other literally every fucking thing that has happened to them since the last call. I cannot wrap my head around that level of co-dependency.

This is just down right sad.

I should have dragged the trashcan outside and asked them to help me take it to the dumpster.

I went to college in a small town, there was a festival every fall in the old downtown area, and a religious group would get a booth right in front of the bar we liked to go to. They would forcibly hand out those tiny little new testaments to everyone trying to walk into the bar. The bar owner put a 50 gallon trash can right inside the door. It was full of those bibles. Such a waste of paper.

See, my cynical self assumed they both were hoping to lock you down as a BF or husband to mooch off of you, and cheat like crazy while you are deployed.

Maybe I have just heard those stories too many times, from people I know who were in the military.

Fun fact: It’s still used to describe an access hole in a barrel, or drum. At work, I sell stuff that sometimes comes in 55gal drums. I regularly have to explain what a bunghole is to people who have never worked with drums before, because they think I am being vulgar at first.

Yep. It totally makes sense for Denton and Amarillo to have the same representative. /s

If they would vibe code a functional Proton Drive Linux client then I might be OK with it.

I live in CD4, and it’s already just as ridiculous. A massive swath of rural voters to drown out relatively diverse parts of Plano, TX.

Yes. I thought the same. Really dumb color choices.

There was a point where he was heavily embraced by internet nazis, and incels. He kinda became associated with them. The original creator tried to reclaim him and disavow all that, but the damage is done for alot of us.

I know pepe didn’t start out that way, and I know the original creator has tried to reclaim him. But for far too long he was linked to internet nazi incel bs, and I can’t really get past it.

Oh shit, now I’m gonna start getting calls about my vehicle’s extended warranty expiring!
