ericisshort,

Not if you choose engineering as your major. I’ve never worked harder or longer hours than when I was in college.

ericisshort,

I’m a millennial but too old to have ever watched Blue’s Clues, so I couldn’t give two shits when Steve left.

Also, it’s hilarious that this meme completely ignores Gen X.

ericisshort,

I do, but I was writing from the perspective that it was invented for the Hunger Games.

ericisshort,

The shipping containers make it so much more dystopian, and calling it “The People’s Park” is just bad writing, even for schlocky YA fiction.

ericisshort,

Is there a The Ocho community around here yet?

ericisshort,

Cylinders prefer to be called thicc circles.

ericisshort,

I’d hope they’d at least be in stalls so that I can only see the feet of the dudes getting sucked off on either side of me.

This. Like ten years ago, when Samsungs had swappable batteries, they were super proud of it. They would advertise it as a feature that Apple doesn’t have.

When I was at a festival, Samsung had an activation where you could tweet at them with your phone model and location and they would send someone with a full battery to trade you for yours. It was an amazing free service that I used so many times, and every time, the jealousy on the faces of all the iPhone people was palpable. Then one year, they quietly removed the swappability from their new phones.

Swappable batteries are such a huge feature that most people don’t even know that they want.

ericisshort,

Can confirm corn dogs and pigs in a blanket are NOT abortions, as evidenced by the fact that they are legal in US states where abortions are not.

This package of bagels I bought expired on a date that doesn't exist. (i.imgur.com)

I originally posted this on the other site back when I took the picture, and it resulted in a lot of confused comments, especially from Americans, eventually getting removed by overzealous mods. Either way, I promise you that this date does not exist, and has never existed.

ericisshort,

Please stop. That is another correct way to do it, and I said there is more than one, not two.

I’m so tired of this “proper order” date debate among regions. Can’t we just accept that there can be more than one correct way to do things?

We commonly write dates 02/29/23 because we speak or write “February 29th 2023” while in other languages, it’s customary to speak or write “29th of February 2023” leading them to the common format 29/02/23.

Edit: to curb the ISO standard comments, yes, that is the most efficient and organized way to write a date, but how many of you speak dates in ISO format? If you don’t commonly say “2023 February 29th” out loud, then you intrinsically understand that not all situations call for the ISO standard.

ericisshort,

Thanks, I should’ve looked up “electric massage” on urban dictionary after the translation.

ericisshort,

I was hoping translation would clear up the picture, but no such luck…

ericisshort,

That leads me to the question oas to why border patrol would be so concerned with directing people in Vermont to Florida.

ericisshort,

You’ve discovered doxing in the wild!

ericisshort,

I don’t think so. The Death Star was a military vessel, and spouses/children don’t usually don’t get to come along on those sorts of things. Having said that, maybe there would be some children on if there was some sort of christening celebration or school field trip on board at the time of the attack.

ericisshort,

It’s really a fun joke, but since I usually just assume most people are terrible, if I saw this sticker, I’d immediately conclude it was placed by some entitled parent that felt like this public pole belonged to them. And if someone made this sticker of my son’s bike, I’d be afraid it would attract a troll who would purposefully lock their bike on top of it or otherwise fuck with the bike simply because of the picture.

ericisshort,

SMDH They apparently granted the sky the rank of Master, but not Anakin.

ericisshort,

Brb gotta figure out how to get this new odo/quark image out of my head. unzips

ericisshort,

No, that’s a Pippin. You’re thinking of a Gen 5 Water/Ground-type Pokémon.
