Hmm, these huge trucks are killing pedestrians, causing worse crashes due to crash incompatibility, destroying the climate, and now smashing through guard rails and flying off cliffs. We'd better change our entire country's infrastructure to accommodate them.

Some tourists in the Museum of Natural History are marveling at some dinosaur bones. One of them asks the guard, "Can you tell me how old the dinosaur bones are?"

The guard replies, "They are 65,000,011 years old."

"That's an awfully exact number," says the tourist. "How do you know their age so precisely?"

The guard answers, "Well, the dinosaur bones were sixty five million years old when I started working here, and that was eleven years ago."

I think they're onto something. In fact, these water mountains seem to be so common, it might just be one big water mountain that covers the whole planet, and is so big it eventually wraps around and meets itself at the bottom.

Years ago, I had to do customer service training for a job, and one thing they said is to always say "you're welcome" instead of "no problem", because some people think "no problem" is rude. But I think it's a generational thing, and it's kind of the opposite with younger folks.

You gotta admit this post is a little ironic.

Don't you hate when you show up to a party and your X is there?

God forbid your 2 ton hunk of metal doesn't get free storage everywhere you go.

Before playing the game, the participants sniffed either female tears or a saline solution

Why would they not include male tears in the test?

Most of the guys i know seem to have gotten Star Wars.

For me, one of the most annoying things about shopping in stores is that I'm forced to drive to a big box store like Target or Walmart because they've forced the local stores out of business, destroying traditional downtowns and walkable neighborhoods and making people need a car to get anywhere. Did they fix that?

We can't lick sodium or chlorine, but combine them and you get something we literally make blocks of for the purpose of licking. What a world!

This is just like the dumb HR tests that are like "You see a coworker engage in inappropriate behavior. Should you A. Notify your supervisor, B. Punch them in the face, C. Piss on the floor.

I know a girl who thinks of ghosts,

She'll make you breakfast, she'll make you toast.

But she don't use butter.

And she don't use cheese.

She don't use jelly, or any of these.

She uses Coooooooooaaaaaal

Me: I need some tires.

Michelin: No problem, anything else?

Me: I don't suppose you know where I can get a list of the best restaurants in the world?

Michelin: You're not gonna believe this.

Earlier this year I tried out a Steam demo of a game called "That Time I Found a Box" and got hooked on it. It's a very unique card game where you create and enhance the cards as you play. I played it for days and eventually beat the demo - the devs told me I was the first person to beat it.

The full version just came out on Steam - I'd recommend taking a look. It's a bit janky and not for everybody, but it does something unique that really clicked for me.

Phoebe: "Enshittification has a specific meaning"

Joey: "Enshittification is when something happens that I don't like"

Is she trying to say "I am, baby"? Do people abbreviate like that?

Tarn mentioned a couple of his favorite bugs in this interview:

My favorites are the one where the farmer walked over to the furniture stockpile, grabbed a bed, walked over to his farm and planted it, and the one with the injured hammerer. The hammerer is the dwarven executioner. When both of his arms were broken and he was unable to hold his hammer to administer Dwarven Justice, he still went ahead with the punishment, but he bit his victims. This included shaking his head vigorously and tearing their arms off, which he then held in his mouth for years.
