LOGIC💣

The US military has had many incidents where it was sloppy as shit. I wouldn’t completely write off the idea that they might just be a lot more incompetent than most people think.

If he’s actually afraid of the axis, then he’s in trouble because the axis is always there, even if he’s not moving along the axis.

Didn’t you hear how many wars he ended? There was the, uhhh, Albania-Azerbaijan war, the uhh, Israel-Palestine war that he completely ended moments before they started a new completely different war. Also Robot Wars and Storage Wars. And many others behind the scenes, so that from the outside, he seems to have done nothing at all.

Yeah why does the teacher have the equation for a line next to what appears to be a parabola?

And I don’t think either function is going to describe some random cock very accurately.

The God she tells you not to worry about.

If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you. - Lyndon B. Johnson

I think I don’t get it.

Like, the only thing that looks like a joke is that Batman filled out he form with NA and signed it “Batman” because he’s not Bruce Wayne. But then, why would he fill out the form that was given to “Mr. Wayne” at all?

So, I think I don’t get the joke. Can somebody explain it to me?

EDIT: I got it right after finishing the comment.

Have you ever gone up to a stranger and asked them to give you something for free? It’s about 1000x more socially awkward than anything the other person could do. So, the other person doesn’t need to stress, at all.

Whether they give you something once, or they give you more than one thing, or they don’t give you anything, it is a trivial thing compared to asking. My advice is just do what you want to do, and if you think about it and change your mind later, then, just do the other thing.

One time, somebody came up to me on the street and asked me for money, and I said, “sorry,” and he got super pissed off at me. He said something like, “You can shove your ‘sorry’.” I assume he wasn’t used to begging, and was ready for people to either give him money or ignore him, but he wasn’t ready for the awkwardness of somebody speaking to him to refuse. Begging is super awkward.

I was not familiar with this book, so I just watched a video of a Canadian lady reading it.

My biggest takeaway from the book was that “FUCK THAT’S A MOOSE! IT IS GOING TO KILL YOU. THAT’S WHAT MOOSE DO.”

I bet she could do double threading if she just loosened up a little.

It’s my estimation that every man ever got a statue made of him was one kind of sumbitch or another. – Malcolm Reynolds

I used to think that it was a shame that we started having more information about how horrible people are. I used to like Roseanne before I found out what an asshole she was. I used to like Bill Cosby. I used to like Lance Armstrong, Michael Jackson, and it even turns out that Michael Jordan is a huge asshole.

Where have all the heroes gone? If only we didn’t know how horrible these people are, we could still have heroes.

But then, I thought, what’s so great about having flawed heroes? That type of thinking is probably why people build cults of personality around politicians. Just get rid of the whole idea.

Celebrities who suck should just be written off, and if that means that we have to live with cover versions of Michael Jackson songs, I think that’s something I can live with.

Maybe this will be the best use case for AI. We can just take all of these movies and TV shows, and use AI to replace the assholes with some fake person. Fuck 'em.

Maybe if we did this, celebrities, who are disproportionately concerned about being famous, would start to be worried about being forgotten and replaced, and they’d start to know their place.

I didn’t mean to be confusing, as you may not recognize the term. Here’s the introduction sentence from its wikipedia.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authoritarian_personality

The authoritarian personality is a personality type characterized by a disposition to treat the voice of authority figures with unquestioning obedience and respect.

I wonder whether some egghead has actually tested if sitting too close to the TV hurts your eyes.

For example, perhaps the reason some children sit too close is that they are nearsighted. So, they sit too close because they have poor vision, and later when the parent brings them to the optometrist, they have poor eyesight, and the parent makes the wrong conclusion.

I also wouldn’t be surprised if the reason parents started saying this has nothing to do with the kid’s eyes. It used to be that TVs were big heavy things, and they often sat on the floor. When kids sit too close to the TV, they can block the TV. Or maybe kids are very distracting for the parent who is watching the TV. So, the parent gives them a little lie saying that it will hurt them to sit that close, and then the problem goes away.

A sequential mate search seems too inefficient for the likes of her.

If I had to say which group of people were killing the planet, I’d say it’s people who don’t think about things at all and just do whatever they’re told. You know, people with authoritarian personalities.

So, the first time I read this, I interpreted it as these guys spent their whole lives saying they should hang out, but never got around to it.

But then, I was like, “Hey, if their graves are next to each other, they’re totally hanging out in the last panel.”

And I realized that you put people’s names on their tombstones. So, is the comic really just two guys with really weird names who are repeatedly greeting each other by saying each other’s names at various times in their lives? If their graves are next to each other, maybe they even got married or something.

Actually, hearing about this, I’m now surprised that our military didn’t stop the fishing boats first to siphon all of the gasoline out of their tanks before blowing them up and murdering their crew.

It was carrying drugs?

This type of drug has several street names, among them, black gold and Texas tea.

If you want to see a lot of Star Trek actors playing small parts in a different franchise, there are a lot in Babylon 5, probably to nobody’s surprise. Including Barclay.

Barclay would probably identify with a lot of that super toxic incel crap, which can be a stepping stone to extremism.

I know the character worked it out to some extent, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it lingered.
