  • I mean... you're kind of right, but this is a "read the room" situation.

  • FWIW most clowns are hard-working, skilled individuals who bring joy to people's lives.

  • Yeah, I know... it's easy to be cynical and do nothing... I have to fight against that feeling every day, I'm dealing with it now even...

  • A lot of thought went into that haircut, friend-o.

    [The haircut] is wedgy, greasy, somehow old womany, and that, combined with Bardem's machismo, makes it unsettling. The actor himself is supposed to have reacted, "Oh no, now I won't get laid for the next two months," when he saw it.

    Now the man behind the cut has emerged. He is a Canadian hairdresser from New Brunswick called Paul LeBlanc who has previously styled hair on movies such as Star Wars and Casino, and who shared an Oscar with make-up artist Dick Smith for his work on Amadeus.

    Le Blanc says that his inspiration was from the crusades, "when knights and Muslims were murdering each other, and this was a typical haircut. It was a dangerous time and we wanted to make Javier timeless and dangerous at first sight."

  • It was kind of funny to watch Hanzawa Naoki, and they'd be like: "As punishment, we're transferring you to this city outside of Tokyo!" And they'd be like: omgz a fate worse than death. And I'd look up the city and it'd be a place with great public transportation, a famous temple, and amazing local cuisine.

  • "You don’t get better on the days when you feel like going. You get better on the days when you don’t want to go, but you go anyway. If you can overcome the negative energy coming from your tired body or unmotivated mind, you will grow and become better. It won’t be the best workout you have, you won’t accomplish as much as what you usually do when you actually feel good, but that doesn’t matter. Growth is a long term game, and the crappy days are more important." -Georges St-Pierre, mixed martial artist

  • Dunno, I'm not a natural at this, so I'm still "decompressing". I kept thinking of that picture with the kid holding a sign saying "It's so bad, even the introverts are here!"

  • Hey, I was working solo through a 42-door canvass list when I saw your post, it was encouraging!

  • I disapprove of Mrs True's use of violence here, but I think it's good to occasionally post some of these cartoons that are more dated, for the same reasons as the earlier post about selection bias. See also these other cartoons that came out on the same day over the years:

    The cartoon selected above is also a bit tougher to clean up, and I didn't spend that much time on it. The newspaper page it was on was pretty damaged. There are some very interesting articles on that page though, including "Bolshevists Plan Unique Monument", "German Intrigue in Bomb Plot", and a bunch of ads and classifieds (which are always fun).

  • Suggest a first date that involves a mosh pit.

  • One side of my family was all farmers. I don't know much about that life, but I believe the youngest girl would be raising those two babies (while cooking, cleaning, doing laundry, etc), and those two boys would be working the field with the mother.

  • Unfortunately the other kids will call her a "door-k" for the rest of the school year.

  • their insides look like a mix of their outsides and their personality.

    Good lord... imagine getting a little cut on your finger, and you look at the cut, and you see a face staring out from inside saying "HI THERE I SECRETLY HATE YOUUUUU" while a set of toes and genitals try to seep out of the cut before you bandage it up forever. That's some cthulhu-level stuff, man.
