I guess the Ikea didn't pan out since currently they seem to be inside a Costco's clothing aisle honking repeatedly.

I'm trying to figure out her angle because some quick Googling suggests she does have a degree in anthropology.
I think the funniest guess I could make based on the info I have is that her kid did bring back a permission slip, she just signed it without looking and refuses to admit she's wrong.

Those patties do not look "ground". Or even grilled, really.
Now, granted I'm having to look them up since I haven't made ground chicken patties and some images suggest they might look similar, but man, in that image they just do not look appetizing.

To clarify, serial monogamy (having more than one spouse but not at the same time) is classified as a form of polygamy (not just typical group marriages or harems), at least according to Wikipedia.

Sure, records across centuries and thousands of cultures suggest polygamy has been in practice for thousands of years but, you see, some rando moonbrain named "The Pool" on Twitter said "nuh-uh!" which instantly contradicts all scientific evidence.

This feels like one of those "would you press the button" memes.
"You gain the ability to sense the gender of anyone you meet BUT you have the object permanence of a baby."

1930 would be just around the depression, pragmatism taking hold for a lot of people, death looking far less glamorous when you have a real chance of starving in a ditch...
It might be similar to the reasons we abandoned notions of the "glories of war" after wars became more industrialized.

Parents fret not, if you fear your kid may be infected with The Gay™ you may cure them with a simple procedure:
Circle, circle, dot, dot, now you have a cootie shot.

I think I tried those cheese ones once and they were just...the worst. Like, outright rancid.
I don't quite remember and I might be mixing up my reaction to it with a chicken-and-apple sausage I ate that had like...whole chunks of apple in it for some reason?

Honey: apparently a magical panacea that can prevent all sickness, better than any medicine, so powerful a cure it could topple the entire medical industry and shatter the grip of the powerful should the secret get out. Conveniently sold in the grocery store for $10.
$6 at Walmart.

I mean, if you've got some extra information about this account in particular that's great but like, all I did was check their profile and I couldn't really get a read on them, I'm not doing a deep dive to see if the guy talking about harvesting prisoners' organs was joking or not.

The profile in question is full of a lot of awful memes. And the n-word. Just like...constantly, in almost every post.
If it is a joke, it's a shitty one.

I had this game as a kid and it was basically Crash Bandicoot but every other level you had to solve math problems.
The game still lives rent-free in my head. So many hours going for every collectible, especially in the stupid surfing levels...

I've been meaning to watch it because it reminds me of a more cartoony, lower-stakes Rosario+Vampire or Mx0, I feel like I'd love it based off what I've seen and heard.

Sweet and spicy sauce from Arby's, apparently it's supposed to be really good with their jalapeno poppers.
I've never had it myself though so I can't vouch for it.

I complained about this exact thing 21 days ago but forgot about it, clearly this is a sign of the enshittification of Bluesky.

Why does the g look like a completely different font than the other letters? I know people draw g's like that and it's not some wild unicode character or something, but it looks so distinct to me.

The trick is to find the tiny little switchboard located on the DNA strand and switch the "allergies" lever to off.

These statistics they make up are always hilarious because they're always like that one bit in the Simpsons:

You don't combat misinformation by defending the person spreading misinformation using a pedantic technicality. You do not, under any circumstances, "got to hand it to them".
You missed the point, wanted to feel like you were right, and got angry when someone pointed out you were wrong.

That's not what was meant by "scent-based attraction" and you know what was meant.
Stop being pedantic just to defend conspiracy theorists.
comment in response to

We DON'T have scent-based attraction. Human attraction is primarily visual. You don't sniff someone's butt to see if you're attracted to them.
We are not dogs, we do not live in the omegaverse, and you have a fundamental misunderstanding of how human sexuality works.

Antagonism over a technicality that no one disagreed with to begin with is not "criticism", it's just running defense for the conspiracy theorist in the picture.

Bill's just scared because he knows he's the only Hulky character who hasn't been drawn mpreg yet.

"The person who believes in human pheromone pseudoscience deserves defending because some people are aroused by smell" is a bizarre hill to die on, dude.
comment in response to
post
That's neat but she didn't say "scent factors into attraction"; she said people smell "genetic compatibility" and that "this is why women stop being attracted to their partners when not on birth control".
You don't have to fish half-truths out of a lie when it's clear what they mean to begin with.
comment in response to
post
No, she's wrong. Unless you have a smell fetish there's nothing about losing your sense of smell that will kill your libido to such a degree.
Humans do not have "scent-based attraction". Nor the ability to sense "genetic compatibility" (whatever that's supposed to mean) olfactory or otherwise.

Firestarter was reducing style rank? I thought my scores seemed lower but I figured that was just a combination of the encore levels' difficulty and the fact that I suck.
Glad everything's getting fixed.

Always love a good lie that can be undone by asking a single question, such as, for example, "how would the body even know to eat the old and sick cells first?" or "what the fuck is an 'Alzheimer's cell'?"

Pretty sure munching on both pollen and royal jelly is a good way to guarantee death via allergies.

As an internet personality, you owe me your undivided attention for every thought that passes through my head. This is only natural and not at all indicative of a toxic parasocial interaction.

I'd guess they were farming engagement since most websites have (sometimes functional) basic protections against bots that just come out of the gate and spam links.
You saw that often with Reddit bots that were getting around account age-based posting restrictions on subreddits.

I remember it as a funny anecdote told by my bio teacher in highschool or somewhere similar, so feel free to take it with a grain of salt regardless.

We did actually have to stop doing DNA testing in schools for biology class, though that was more because people kept discovering they weren't related to one or more of their parents than anything else.

I genuinely didn't realize Sierra Mist was being phased out for Starry, I thought Starry was just a different lemon-lime soda.
I wasn't attached to it or anything, I just didn't realize.

Now that you mention it I am extremely curious and/or concerned about why a solid 70% of all nerf balls I have ever played with have had a bite taken out of them....

They always fixate on "survivable" because they literally have nothing else to go off of. Who the fuck wants to sit at home infected with measles even if you had the mildest symptoms on the goddamn planet? Especially when, as an alternative, you could just—y'know—NOT do that?

I'd bet good money that this person is the type to claim they broke their arm as a child and "didn't cry, didn't even hurt, just walked it off".
I'd also bet good money that in reality they'd cry like a toddler the minute they suffered something worse than a paper cut.

Asterisk is definitely my favorite opening by far, maybe out of anime openings as a whole.
Relatedly, Echoes is definitely the best ending theme.

You gotta appreciate the first result still being a Reddit thread asking if you could hypothetically iron your balls, though.
