There's one in every crowd
  • Its like people who claim to love Escape (The Piña Colada Song) without knowing it's about a couple who are both actively cheating on each other only to accidentally end up on a blind date with each other.

    Or those who think Born in the USA is super patriotic when it's about kiiinda the exact opposite

  • "You'll have to excuse my friend. He's a little slow." - Lloyd Christmas
  • I always made the joke that a girl could reach her hand down the front of my pants at the bar and I wouldn't pick up on those signals.

    Until the time a girl actually did reach her hand down my pants a bar and when I tried to act on it I was called a creep.

  • There's one in every crowd
  • There was a small bar we used to frequent, so small the only "live music" they used to have is dudes who finish their guitar lessons because it was always some little douche in a white v-neck and jeans playing an acoustic by himself. And every single time they'd play the same 10 songs and always mildly enthusiastically say "so who wants to hear some Wonderwall?"

  • Battle of the Cap'ns
  • I don't remember all of them, but only a couple of those are legit he got game...

    • Jean Grey was a mate designed to fall in love with the person she first saw

    • Ardra was a con artist

    • Luxwanna, while weirdly in love with him, that scenario was to piss off someone else, nothing more

    • The last panel, that was a mental simulation of someone else's life he was living and they were already married before Picard was forced in.

  • Damn. Sorry duder. A coworker buddy of mine used to work at a large solar manufacturing and research company a few years ago. He said upper management outright told the workforce that they can't tell you who to vote for, but if the orange turd is elected...the company is literally fucked.

  • title
  • I work at a nonprofit hospital, and this week they announced all raises and bonuses are suspended...for regular employees, not docs or execs obviously.

    The even sadder part, is a month or so ago there negative ads all over Hulu about how the democratic rep was pLaYiNg PoLiTicS wItH mY mEdIcArE.

  • These are the thoughts that form grey hairs
  • Watching TNG as a kid

    Realizing, now, you're only 5 years younger than Patrick Stewart was when he started filming TNG (47)

    Which is even more mind-blowing when you consider that a lot for these long-awaited sequels...the protagonist in the sequel is as old, if not older than, their mentor in the original.

    I could be mis-remembering on some of these, but...

    Creed: Stallone was older in this movie mentoring Apollo Creed's son, than Mickey was in the original Rocky

    TopGun Maverick: Tom Cruise is >= Tom Skerritt (Viper) in Top Gun

    Cobra Kai: Ralph Macchio >= Pat Morita in Karate Kid

    SWTLJ: Mark Hamill >= Alex Guinness

  • "Seventeen separate temporal violations. The biggest file on record." - Agent Lucsly
  • Even worse, they're wearing uniforms you're not familiar with.

    Which reminds me of an old DI topic...why star fleet had changed their uniforms so many times. 1 theory was that Starfleet does it on purpose as a means of helping time-displaced officers identify the general time period they're in. That way they can try to do whatever is possible as not to contaminate the timeline if they go backwards. If they go forward, then the natives can ID where they're from.

  • A totally rational, level-headed person lives here

    This completely normal person also used to have a wooden sign in front of his house before Biden bowed out. It said "I'm pooped I'm gonna go" and had the general shape of a diaper under it that said "BIDEN".

    But good to know he legitimately spent money on those cardboard cutouts of Harris and Walz. There used to be several more signs for the orange turd but I think he was asked to dial it back a little
