“Samantha, I noticed that your “fun-o-meter’ is stuck in the middle. Why is that?
“Well the robots are cool, but why aren’t there any girls?”
“Why couldn’t the long lost brother be a long lost sister?“
“And how are all their disparate technologies able to connect to each other?”
“Doesn’t like boys!”
“Doesn’t understand robots!”
“That’s”
“That’s not what I said!”
Damn.
Cartoon Network is getting too damn real
That’s pretty goddamn ironic from a network which cancelled a superhero show because it was watched by too many girls, due to belief that it’s impossible to market superhero merch to girls
I’m fairly sure that’s the joke.
(Also the network doesn’t make the show – people may not realize that Cartoon Network isn’t a giant conglomerate cartoon factory and actually consists of tens of thousands of individual creators, many of whom spend a significant portion of their day wondering what can we sneak past Cartoon Network?)
At least that’s what I’m like when I write for them. Zing!!
nobody likes the “bad boys” who insult and degrade their partners while wearing pastel polos with popped collars, people like REAL bad boys who wear leather jackets and take a lot of care in how they shape their pompadour and carry around stiletto switchblades and care about their communities and ride a motorcycle and rebel against the government and says stuff like “NOBODY insults my gal” and gets in fistfights with dudes who catcall their girlfriends. THOSE bad boys are the guys everyone wants.
every semester, without fail, there’s some freshman who’s like “oh I never check my email lol” and i get worried for them, bc they’re going to miss some important email about a pop quiz or a test, or something and then fail. so if you’re a freshman reading this, CHECK YOUR EMAIL im not joking, professors will send you stuff via email that they’ll never mention in class. I’m in my email every hour on the hour before and after class. check that shit. put that app on ur phone, turn on notifs, go in and refresh every hour, check your spam, check your email
this has been a message from your concerned dad. check ur email, do well in school, i love you
REPOST @TinySnekComics – you know what’s cool? VOTING THIS NOVEMBER!!! if you retweet anything today, make it is!!
Just so you all know, it is LEGALLY REQUIRED for employers to let you off work long enough to vote. If they say otherwise, they are in violation of federal law.
i just got a super predatory debt collection letter. it was for a $113 debt from citizens bank, who i had an account with when i was 16 (20 years ago). the letter appeared to be an offer to cancel the debt if i paid them $22.75. HOWEVER, the actual wording is, “The amount of the debt is $113.77 and we will accept $22.75.” so, no MENTION of canceling the debt, but the implication is there because many collectors of current debt offer to settle for a percentage.
at the bottom of the letter, it says: “Because of the age of your debt, we cannot sue you for it and we cannot report to any credit reporting agency. In many circumstances, you can renew the debt and start the time period for the filing of a lawsuit against you if you take specific actions such as making payments on the debt or making a written promise to pay.”
basically… i don’t owe this money anymore, the debt is so old they can’t legally sue me for it OR put it on my credit report, BUT if i take their generous offer of paying them $22.75… they can sue me for the full amount because making a payment makes the debt current.
no thanks, jefferson capital systems llc.
always, always read the entire letter! it is so important because of semantic awfulness like this!
NON-TEXANS: DONATE, SPREAD THE WORD, COME DOWN HERE TO KNOCK ON DOORS, DO EVERYTHING. We’re working our asses off to get this ghoul Cruz out of the Senate, but he needs HELP. Beto is accepting no PAC money, and he’s already raised millions JUST from donations. KEEP IT UP. Cruz is shaking in his boots, but he’s got a lot of grimy money behind him. https://betofortexas.com/
I just looked this up and it turned out it was about a production of “cat on a hot tin roof”, a play which famously features a closeted gay lead character. a member of the audience was catcalling female actresses and shouting homophobic abuse when actor john lacy, who played the character big daddy, paused his performance and called him out. the heckler replied “what are you going to do about it?” to which lacy responded by leaping down into the audience and knocking him to the ground.
so there’s this terrible spotify ad (i don’t have premium because unemployed. boo) from biore, about their ridiculous nose strips, and i want to throw something across the room every damn time i hear it. FIRST OFF, those “blackheads” on your nose usually aren’t even blackheads, they’re sebaceous filaments. if your skin is properly washed and exfoliated, then they’re not dirt, they’re supposed to be there. they’re just going to come back and biore KNOWS THAT, so they have that awful ad telling you that they look “dirty” and disgusting (their words!!! idk about the word disgusting but i know they used dirty and the entire ad is very very self esteem-killing) so you’ll keep on buying the damn nose strips for a fake condition that isn’t going to go away. you can diminish their appearance using AHA exfoliants, but they will be back within 24-48 hours if you try to remove them.
in other words: fuck you and your predatory scam, biore. throw out ur biore strips guys.
I NEVER KNEW THIS IF ONLY SOMEONE TOLD ME WHEN I WAS 12 I MAY NOT HAVE DEVELOPED DERMATILLOMANIA.
FOR FUCKING REAL
From the Wiki article on sebaceous filaments: “Unlike blackheads, however, they cannot be removed and are a permanent part of the human skin.”
This has honest to god changed my life okay thank you OP thank you so much
