So they're doing this specifically to flood and destroy some sacred Tibetan archeological site, right?

disgusting. These conservative nutjob terrorists disgust me.

I'm just amazed they haven't tried to use AI to write and record their shoddy muzak, cutting out the musician all together.

James Acaster is so gosh darn funny. As a comedian myself, I'll always respect him for that time he released like, 4 hours of standup in one go. It was brilliant.

What an enormous surprise, a nazi cop.

Considering that rich boomer parents are almost exclusively fucking terrible, I'd say having to grow up with them makes it more palatable. They may get some money, but they never got love.

"Off-season body builder"

Used one of those for a long time, when the blades start to dull, it becomes the most painful haircut you can imagine

I have a disabled neighbor that I help out around the house every now and then, she's been a smoker for decades. Long enough that she had to get tracheotomy so she breathes through a hole in her neck. Hasn't stopped her from smoking like a pack a day. Because of her disability and advancing age, a very kind neighbor built her a house and gave it to her for free. Her smoking has ruined that cute little two bedroom, to the point that everything in there is stained nicotine yellow, and reeks. That house will just have to be torn down when she leaves, because they'd have to gut the entire thing just to get rid of the smell. It's disgusting, and the fact that she got that house for nothing makes me all the more pissed about it.

A lot of great shows aren't coming to mind, but one great show is:

Atlanta - The Goof Who Sat by the Door (Season 4, Episode 8)

Without a doubt top 5 funniest episodes of anything I've ever seen. This show was absolutely brilliant, with a lot of great episodes, but this one was... chefs kiss

Something like this would have paused and galvanized the entire U.S. 20 years ago.

I wonder if this will even be mentioned in tomorrows news.

People already making jokes, we've truly lost all hope.

i don’t think it’ll be impossible to generate immune response to wrong chirality bacteria

you know what they say about assumptions

I'll just leave this Wikipedia entry for Castle Rock vs. Gonzales right here

of course, they all said yes. invited 20-ish people, hoped for 7-10, got none. They started bailing about a day before, but only 4 definitively said they couldn't make it.

My last party went much like this. First party thrown since the divorce, went all out on a halloween costume party. Was hounding my best friend about it for months, only for him to flake saying he didn't want to drive the 40 minutes to my house. Nobody came, spent over $1000 on decorations alone. I'll throw another party at some point, but I'll need to find some new friends first.

My parents forced me to attend after school tutoring when I was a kid, at a place called "Kumon" 🤔

I'm learning Dutch so I can eventually move there, what phrase is that? Wasn't mentioned here

Do you not have a car?

I'm pretty good at... just about everything. With some rare exceptions, just about every new thing I try, I pick up really quickly, and am pretty good at it. Ice skating, volleyball, stand-up comedy, acting, dancing, singing, gymnastics, hockey, rugby, capoeira, woodworking, drawing, painting, sculpture, chemist, surgery, gardening, swimming/diving... Just a whole bunch of random stuff that I've had the opportunity to try and... yeah, I'm pretty good at 'em.

I've often thought about being the subject of some sort of "Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe" style show except they challenge me with new tasks/activities to see if they can find something I legitimately suck at.
