Yeah I'm a real person, the name is just a reference to getting banned on Reddit many times, and then getting banned immediately across several discuss.online communities for hurting a mod's feelings. I guess if it's going to happen, might as well ask for it.

  • Man posts his incorrect opinion online

    Jump

  • I got in and out of my house about 50 times per day, and my feet are size 13.5s, so all my shoes are tight (they don't make most shoes in anything larger than 13s). Plus my back isn't what it once was. If I had to bend over and take my shoes off 50 times a day, I'd actually lose it, "it" being my L3-4 disc.

    Whereas, litereally nothing bad has ever happened to me because I wear shoes in the house. It's all some hypothetical ... I don't know what exactly. Grossness? Is grossness hurting me?

    Tell you what's 'gross,' as a thought exercise tho - walking around barefooted where my dogs and cats walk barefooted, they're not exactly wearing shoes outside, or in the litterbox, nor are they putting a handkerchief down under their assholes when they sit down.

    But a pair of flip-flops for in the house plus floor cleaning regularly... I don't really worry about it either way. IDK why anyone does.

  • Me after too long of a nap

    Jump

  • Also his lower intestine is filled with a plug of moss and pinecones, which have trapped the material in his digestive system, stopping digestion entirely, which he will now need to expel in a painful and gruesome deification so it can start up again.

    Much like me in the morning

    But he doesn't need coffee for it :/

  • "We had sex in a Chinese hotel, then found we had been broadcast to thousands"

    Jump

  • Aaaand you've got my attention.

    I don't like video tho, just pictures, so I followed Tumblr till it went down and then NewTumbl until it went down and now a third-gen clone that doesn't have anywhere near the niches but is getting better, and pretty soon it'll go down too.

  • Family sues Nebraska police over fatal shooting of depressed teenager: The family says officers shot their son dead within 30 seconds of unlawfully entering their home.

    Jump

  • I called the cops to break up a fight between my husband and I where I thought he'd kill me, I got a domestic with intent charge because they don't know how gay couples work, and someone has to go to jail. Also there was a "ridealong" bitch who basically sat there like she was a tourist, having the time of her life with the whole thing. Just some chick the cop knew. So yeah even overprivileged white men learn their lesson on cops.

  • How could you?!

    Jump

  • Does eye contact shut him up? Cats use eye contact as a primary communication mode, and meowing to communicate with humans, he might be conditioned to think the meowing gets the eye contact he wants.

    Or, he's just an asshole, lots of cats are assholes too.

  • Signed by Homer himself

    Jump

  • A lot of hollywood writers and especially script doctors aren't really well versed in literature or ancient world classics, it's not germane to the form they produce. I know a hollywood writer and he certainly didn't graduate with an MA in English.

  • Adobe backlash is getting louder — time to escape proprietary creative tools?

    Jump

  • That's the modern CEO template

  • Just, wtf

    Jump

  • Black Republicans: "I sure hope that's fake or you guys apologize"

    How the hell could it be fake and you know he won't, but keep towing that party line.

  • What are some of Kid Rock's healthy habits?

    Jump

  • RFK looks like he forgot to take the last person's skin out of those clothes before he put them on.

    Kid rock looks like -- well let's be real, that's the first book he's ever held.

  • To USB, or not to USB

    Jump

  • Dude's gone full tilt psychotic as a result and is selling shares to excavate the landfill it's in (he'll never find it intact and usable, but his life is forever ruined by his refusal to give up)

  • Real Struggle 😔

    Jump

  • Dean at my college makes 4x my salary, he thinks I personally invented "VPN" to confuse him and make his life difficult

  • U.S. Dealers In Full Panic Mode After Canada Green-Lights Chinese Cars

    Jump

  • I thought Tesla was going to change things a little bit but it turns out they were only interested in fucking kids

  • YSK that smokers are 30% to 50% more likely to suffer from erection problems that men who don't smoke

    Jump

  • It's causation. Fucks up the blood vessels. Also causes degenerative disc disease, which I really wish I didn't have now, two back surgeries later. But that's what made me quit vaping, my surgeon wouldn't operate on me unless I did.

  • Minute Maid is discontinuing frozen juices after 80 years

    Jump

  • Yeah I drank OJ like it was going out of style until I realized it was rotting my teeth and making me fat, just soda with fresher taste (and more acid). They don't give juice to kids anymore. It was a scam. Fruit is awesome tho, I try to eat a couple pieces a day.

  • Pentagon warns Scouts: Ban girls or we will pull your funding

    Jump

  • Sort of depends on your troop. As a young teenager we had to endure winter survivalist training which included building usable sleeping quarters in the sub-zero snow and spending the night in them, by yourself. Yes you could come back to the main building but you failed at the training if you did. Actual chance of freezing. They gave you a styrofoam cup half full of chili but otherwise you were on your own for sustenance too, including water. It did give me a sense of independence, but also a fear of the cold.

  • ICE is as American as Apple Pie

    Jump

  • Heyyy that photo was taken a couple miles from where I am sitting. Terrifying.

    When I moved here, we rented a house in an all-black neighborhood. They weren't um, super warm. In my "post-racial white savior" mentality, I'm like, this is odd, I'm trying to desegregate this place! Eventually one neighbor took the time to kindly educate me. Many of those older folks had family, grandparents and uncles, who were lynched in pubic. Many of them remember that photo being taken, most knew the Little Rock Nine personally. Their neighborhood was about safety, about a place they could be without constant worry. They reflexively did not like seeing young white folks move in. Holy shit I suddenly got it. As a gay guy I could imagine that applying to my own minority status.

    I live in a gayborhood now and sure enough, as the house next door goes on the market, we're trying to make it clear conservative straight folks are not welcome.

    Perspective is interesting. I keep my mouth shut and my ears open when it comes to race, cause I grew up in a literally all-white town.

  • New Mexico warns against consuming raw milk after newborn dies from listeria

    Jump

  • I was briefly interested in raw milk in the early 2000s. There was a lot of info floating around about how pasteurization destroyed beneficial bacteria that healthy people could benefit from, to avoid risk to those with compromised immune systems, infants and elderly, etc. The gut microbiome was just starting to be talked about, and we didn't know much, but people were curious about improving it.

    Fortunately I did a little digging and realized it was a fairly radical and unproven concept, but it's not just the belief they're adding something harmful. It's the belief they're removing beneficial bacteria that would somehow improve our health.

    Considering how the last 20 years have been full of mostly unproven probiotic and prebiotic marketing insanity, it's not surprising, it's the same base concept. But science has been demonized since then, people actively think science and medicine is trying to keep us unhealthy now, and the top levels of government are promoting that bullshit.

  • Nope, not visiting that

    Jump

  • Then how did he have an affair?

    Is power itself not enough to coerce someone, you're saying it has to be physical coercion? That would undo a lot of what we know about sexual assault.

    I'm certainly not saying he did it, but "he's paralyzed" is not a good enough defense.

  • London knife crime vs viral content about London crime

    Jump

  • France is starting to get it. I hope more countries do.
