- Comment on I'm so goddamn sick of this fat, orange, narcissistic asshole and I will celebrate when he dies 3 days ago:
Only if it’s from natural causes. In case you hadn’t figured it out sooner, he’d otherwise become a martyr. You think the Charlie Kirk stupidity is bad? Imagine how bad it world be if the cult’s object of worship was popped. Such a martyrdom would give the cult something to rally around after his end. If he dies naturally, however, the cult is FAR more likely to descend into infighting with a side of conspiracy theory, and tear itself apart as all the horrible people tried to scramble for whatever they could get by stomping on each other. Cults are complex monsters but have ways to survive the death of their leaders.

He appeared in Robot Chicken and admitted that he was never all that clear on his motivations.

Insects have hair that serves several purposes, and birds can have feathers that resemble hair. Also there are mammals that lay eggs so there’s that too.

I looked it up and she was added in 1966 - Smurfette is a boomer. Incidentally I learned that they retconned in female smurfs starting in 2008. Also, here’s my disgustingly necessary condemnation of rule 34.

This means that Gargamel was heroically working to contain the infestation and researching a cure.
- Comment on Why do so many boomers and even some gen x believe so peristently that if you dressup and show up in person anywhere you will get whatever you went there for? 1 week ago:
Gen-X here. The reason they’re giving you that advice is because that used to actually work. If you wanted a job, for instance, you needed to comb through newspapers or physically go around and look for places that were hiring. It wasn’t uncommon for ads to to say “apply in person.” Without the Internet making applying for a job almost trivially easy compared to how it used to be, going through the extra effort of showing up dressed professionally was a way to show that you were serious and willing to put in real effort.
The Boomers and Gen-Xers telling you to do the same aren’t living in the same decade as the rest of us, mostly because the Internet wasn’t pervasive in the time they were looking for jobs. Back in the 90s the Internet was kinda a novelty that you had to go looking for. It wasn’t, IMO, until smart phones came along that being online REALLY took off, though arguably iMac computers really pushed the “tech is trendy” idea out there.

- Comment on Aight. Let's be honest. How many of you dress for yourselves, and how many dress for others? 2 weeks ago:
Myself, always. I’m one of those people who wears normal clothes just numbing around the house, rather than just underwear or pajamas or something. My fiance is practically a nudist and I’ll be sitting there in the couch with her on jeans and a tee shirt lol

Canned out homemade, it’s always good to remember that cranberries are nearly inedible without a substantial volume of delicious sugar.
- Comment on Batman probably checks for the bat signal the way we check our screens for notifications. 2 weeks ago:
Plot twist, there’s a transmitter attached to it that signals whatever his communicator is. The bat signal is pure theatrics, turning it on just pings Batman’s pager.

It really needs to go across the northern states from Chicago to Seattle - that’s so much empty bullshit that would be so much faster to cross and could connect what passes for cities along that route.
