My parents didn’t smoke but that’s literally how I knew the babysitter was gone and my parents were home from a night out.

Do we have clearance, Clarence?

I know. Different movie but I couldn’t resist.

I hope the Great Lakes region of the Midwest is on the precipice of raising a giant middle finger to the GOP.

Relatable.You bet your ass if I ever find out who stole my Talkboy shit’s gonna go down.

For me it’s about having something relevant to say.

The urge to talk just so you can make a dumbass point contributes nothing to the conversation.

If you aren’t going 90mph on your way into Detroit you’re causing a traffic jam. Full stop.

They decided ERIC was the best one to spin this?

Yup. These are expert scientists with their hands up in the air explaining how this shit is exponentially hitting the fan.

This is an inflection point. The fire alarms are blaring.

They should get every penny of funding available to deal with this.

The wisdom of the elderly that aged too young.

The beauty of the scientific method is that you get the chance to be wrong as long as your hypothesis sounds plausible. You’re allowed to explore and innovate.

Failure and success can both advance knowledge. You just have to know when to say “Well, that didn’t work… what if we try this?”

I grew out my winter haircut only to sweat my ass off with this shit. I know where I live… I was born to suffer through a freezing February.

I hate how so many local news anchors try to play it down, too. They’re WAY too enthusiastic about saying “Wow! How nice to have such unseasonably warm weather!” while we’re roasting ourselves into a global death spiral.

Dude… What did SpongeBob do to Sandy to get the whole rodent mafia involved like that???

Artificial Intelligence at this stage is Artificial Ignorance. It’s not ready to be unleashed onto anyone who blindly trusts anything they read.

Go fuck yourself, Vlad.

The entire city of Detroit is about to ask “The fuck you doing fuckin’ with our big ass ship?”

Also Billie Joe: Openly bisexual since 1995. Love the one you’re with. That’s literally the only thing that matters.

StumbleUpon was my jam. I could procrastinate my homework for HOURS with that toolbar!

The temptation to explore felt real. Not like clickbait.

It was that wonderful time on the internet where you got the chance to enrich your knowledge without having an algorithm force stuff on you because it thinks it knows what you like.

I love being surprised and love learning new things. The algorithms, AI, and SEO have stripped all of that curiosity and discovery away.

A friend of mine also did Peace Corps work there. She had to pretend she was married to someone in an adjacent village to deter getting kidnapped and forced into marriage.

A more lighthearted (but scary at the time) moment was when a bat peed into her eye while she was using the outhouse. No diseases, thankfully. She’s been back in the US now for a number of years and loved the work she did while she was over there.

Dude on the left has zero shame dangling that much brain 😂
