Whip smart and irreverent
It's crazy that every day we find out that the only public figure with any aversion at all to pedophilia is Katt Williams.

Can't help but suspect that arresting Don Lemon is the dumbest thing you could have done during the moment that the media was possibly about to cool down on their ICE coverage.

I think solipsism is real but not for me, I think we're all a product of some other guy's brain-in-a-jar imagination. I'm a shadow inversion of his need for external validation made manifest, he's a racecar driver who just noticed that his childhood pet turtle is sliding on the backseat.

We're so lucky that ADHD wasn't a big concept yet in the era of unrestrained cigarette ads. A Marlboro helps you focus, the overactive mind loves Newport. Menthol cigarettes to cool down an overheated brain. Psychiatrists love Paul Mall.

Never clicking on this type of thumbnail btw, have some dignity.

The happy place that I transport to in a meditative state is a covered pedestrian bridge connecting two high rise buildings. Activates the tree house instinct in my brain. I'm cozy in here, and better than every ground-y down there on the street level, with the pigeons and rats.

The way some boomers get themselves into a panic when they hear about MS-13 is how I react when I learn about a new kind of poisonous mushroom.

Sending it to family members, look out for this. They're called death cap, sick stuff. They say they aren't in Pennsylvania but I wouldn't trust them.

have said it before but I’ll say it again: believing in evil in our secular age is a radical proposition. that’s partially why it feels unbelievable to see what you’re seeing. ICE and its enablers are evil, and if you are on the side of the good you have a responsibility to stop them

The Internet makes everyone talk like an idiot but one peculiarity that's really bothered me lately is how every YouTuber started using the word 'Explained'.

You're not "explaining" every Mario sidekick right now bro, you're describing them. "Toad is a little guy" isn't clearing things up for me.

Fun fact that I just learned that feels like a joke is that Sega responded to 'Mike Tyson's Punch-Out' by making a game called 'Buster Douglas' Knockout Boxing'. Really capitalizing on a very, very brief moment.

Date: Yeah, do you have a favorite movie?

Me: Hmm, yeah uh.. ooh actually sorry let me just run to the men's room, haha.

(3 minutes later)

Me: Sorry about that, anyway yeah, my favorite movie is Shawshank Redemption, then probably The Godfather, The Dark Knight, and the Godfather Part 2.

Scientist in spiritual awakening: "There's a mysticism in the mere fact of existence that we've lost touch with. We have so much to learn from our past."

Guy who just saw an AI generated image of Bart Simpson shooting Charlie Kirk and thought it was from a real episode: "I was just thinking that."

Google: By the way, have you ever wondered What was Wrong with Dan Marino?

Okay, what was wrong with Dan Marino.

People in the comments for Crystal Method's Name of the Game (released 2001) reminds them of the early 2000s for some reason.

Me: He said ethereal but what he meant was more like effervescent. Ethereal would imply that it's hard to grasp but it's more of a jubilant vibe.

Me playing Scrabble: Morove. Like, that wall is painted with a sort of morove shade of red. If you're irritated you might be in a morove mood.

rip in advance to Scott "Mr Dilbert" Adams who is perhaps most famous for writing a now-deleted four part blog post where he attempted to hypnotize his readers into nutting and asked them to email him after they have nutted to tell him about the nut.

One thing that sucks about being a Pittsburgher after the Steelers lose is having every sports fan and talk radio guy condescend to you, asking if you're finally tired of mediocrity and ready to make a real change from the top down. Dog I don't have shit to do with this.
