God damn. Mark Twain is over here talking about the internet. I started hearing about the internet when I was 13. So I can remember a world without the internet, but it still feels like it’s always been there. Same thing with CallerID. Imagine cell phones without callerID.

Hell for that matter, I can remember NOBODY having a cell phone. I remember car phones. A landline style phone installed INTO your car. But it still feels like cell phones have always been around.

Sadly, I remember a world before school shootings. Yeah, imagine if the whole year there were 0 school shootings. And 0 the year before that. And 0 the year before that. Then in 1998, Columbine happened. Those 4 kids were pussies! They claim they did it because they got bullied. I went to school in a place where on any day, for no reason at all, you could be in a fist fight. It was just a rough school, with a bunch of hormonal angry tough psychopaths. I’ve seen videos of them interviewing the survivors of Columbine. The impression that I got was that their bullies were rich preppy boys who tie their sweater around their waist because it might be a bit nippy on the golf coarse after school. If THAT guy can bully you, you deserve to be bullied. If those 4 kids at any time in their life had balls, and just punched a prep in the mouth? 27 kids would have lived to see 1999. Including themselves. And people say violence isn’t the answer…

Usually these make me feel old. This one doesn’t make me feel old. This one makes me have an existential crisis. Because 2100 sounds like it’s going to be filled with just this dark dystopia of hatred and anger.

And 1950 had racial lynchings, and Japanese-American citizens, who had full citizenship as a legal born citizen, had just gone through the past few recent years of being held in camps, and worked, in terrible conditions, all because their parents came from the wrong country. It had governments actively trying to brainwash their citizens into being patriotic and thus easier to control.

I look at the past, and look at the future, and it makes sense why we are where we are. This is what humans are. Humans are the worst people. It’s not going to get better. We’ve thrown shit at ourselves for so long that now we’re all a bit dirty and smelly. But also an elephant is trying to use your body as a poop knife, so it can break up the shit in it’s butthole, and take an even BIGGER shit on you. Like 80lbs of shit just falling on your head.

That’s where we are right now as a society, because we’ve paved the way to get here.

Oh man. This becomes like a philosophical thinking exercise.

Do you steal the tank, and have the GREATEST BAR STORY IN THE HISTORY OF EVER, (with the caveat being that not a single person would ever believe your story)

or

Do you not risk government and military personnel hunting you, stay safe, and just take uber home (with the caveat being that you’re a huge pussy who has no exciting bar stories that anybody want to hear)?

Decisions decisions…

Dig a tunnel, dig dig a tunnel.

Dig a tunnel, dig dig a tunnel.

Dig a tunnel, dig dig a tunnel.

Quick before the hyeenas magic elfs come!

And these new njmbers have shown that users are choosing not to use facebook.

It doesn’t HAVE to cost so much. The wedding doesn’t cost a lot.

The ceremony and the party are what cost a lot.

But you can go down to city hall, in plain clothes, pay a small fine, fill out some paperwork, bada bing bada boom, married.

But good luck getting 99% of women to give up their dream wedding for a city hall wedding with 1 city appointed witness, and no guests.

Small penis.

Is it bad that I saw that movie in the theater, but without your link I would have never pieced that together?

So, NOT great at an orgy.

And about a century later the event was memorialized with the release of the song “It’s raining men”.

What? You thought it was a gay positive song released in an era where that lifestyle was condesended upon for it’s negitive stigma in society?

Turns out no. It’s actually the very first black metal song celebrating gore and torturous death reigning down on earth in some kind of religious macabre.

Do with that information what you will.

reminds you of the newest bullshit going on in the news

Jay Leno voice

“Hey, did’ja see this? Did’ja hear about this??”

…I wonder if the reference is too old to land.

You’re asking why the politicians don’t reach out to the 34%. Meanwhile for the past 10 years politicians have been ranting about dead people voting. A statistic that is blatently false, and has NEVER shown any significant amount of votes coming from dead people. They did find some confusion when old people voted early by mail, but died before election day. But those numbers were a rounding error at best.

So maybe these politicians are thinking “Well we can’t reach the non-voters because they’re dead!”

And then they go on fox news and argue about frogs being gay, or whatever bullshit to distract from actual issues.

So you’re saying I SHOULDN’T preheat my toaster oven to 425F???

UH-OH!!!

brb. Gotta put out some fires.

Never heard of foobar, and honestly surprised it doesn’t have a linux version. It has a windows phone version, but NOT linux.

I know I shit on linux a lot on this site for having a small userbase, but COME ON!!! You make a windows phone version but NOT a linux version??? At least linux has something like 5% of the pc market userbase. And while that may be mockingly small, windows phone probably only ever had 5 users total!

You know it’s bad when I’M the one insulting a program for not having a native linux port.

A “ringleader of a child fight club” would need to organize fights and betting, make sure everyone keeps their mouth shut.

How long until DraftKings takes over the betting aspect?

A hamBURGLAR!!! C’mon, man!!! What’re you doing??? IT WAS RIGHT THERE!!! AHHH!!!

kicks over trash can on the way out

What if you’re just kinky and into that shit?

WHO is downvoting this??? A psychopath. That’s who.

To be fair, there was a time most people DID like him. People forget, but the reason Tesla was innitially sucsessful is it was one of the only good electric cars at the time being sold by a leftist who wants to help the environment. And people loved him, both on reddit and twitter.

Then he went batshit crazy.

Now we’re here.

Why are you being downvoted? Bad people can exist everywhere. Putin is a world leader in the east. Putin is a huge piece of shit.

Or does everyone else need me to give you all a history lession on evil leaders from all over the world?
