The Ig Nobel is incredible , one year an Indian guy won it for calculating the average surface area of an elephant and during his acceptance they had an elephant hold up a sign with the surface area of the scientist on it, they do showbiz better than the Oscars

When I worked at McDs this woman would go twice a week and order a large sweet tea in the drive thru and then pull off and come in to complain about it. Order, pay, complain, get a refund. Twice a week.
Finally my manager refused to give her a refund and goes "Maybe you just don't like sweet tea?"

I've been deleting comments from the bathroom police but I am annoyed that people pretend to care about the safety of women when they literally elected a rapist felon president. No one is falling for your lies. We know you don't care about women. Stop pretending. It's pathetic. You're pathetic.

As a Canadian, yup. Also all the school shootings and guns everywhere.
Very hard to imagine why Canada and Greenland don't want to be part of a country that offers its citizens no health care, has no department of education and will soon have no other social services. I don't get it. What is wrong with these people?
