Buffalo buffalo of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but your wings.

quote:The meme is a reference to a Twitter post on 12 June 2016 by Ben Ward, an Australian cartoonist using the online handle "pixelatedboat".[1] His Twitter joke describes a fictional Internet viral phenomenon of a "lovely duck that drinks milkshakes" and is subsequently discovered to be racist. Ward described the Twitter message as "a pretty good joke" summing up a recent trend where popularity that comes via the Internet can be quickly undone by the discovery of something troubling in a person's past. When asked in 2017, Ward was unsure what actually inspired him to make the joke, but recalled it was partially influenced by the Chewbacca Mask Lady.[7][8][9]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usenet_personality Alexander Abian (19231999) American mathematician who taught for many years at Iowa State University and became an Internet legend for his incessant and frequently bizarre posts to various Usenet newsgroups. In particular, he gained international notoriety for his claims that blowing up the Moon would solve virtually every problem of human existence, and that mass and time are equivalent. (With regard to the second claim, it was suggested on the "sci.astro.amateur" newsgroup that his demise be observed with a gram of silence.)[1] One of Dr. Abian's most endearing hypotheses was the challenge to the Big Bang Theory with the Big Suck Theory.[2]

The wiki page on frituur/friterie (a place where you can buy freshly prepared fries) has an audio clip of the background noises of a typical frituur. https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File%3AWWS_8220Fritkot8221.ogg Is this meant to be ASMR or something? Here's the page btw. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friterie

El_Elegante posted:Ive never seen the word youthquake before it was a big thing in uk politics around the 2017 election, labour's much better than expected result being evidence that the younger generation were starting to turn out to vote. almost immediately it was disproven - under-25 turnout was higher than normal, like 30% instead of 25%, while all the boomers turned out to vote to gently caress poo poo up as always. what actually happened was much more complex and way out of bounds for this thread, but "youthquake" stuck around as a salve for the consciences of all the blueticks who both got their election predictions completely wrong and wanted desperately to ignore the possibility that there might be more reasons that people turned out than "hurr labour offered students free stuff", so in a way it's pretty apposite as a word of the year.

not worthless, but wikipedia: Guitarist Peter Buck explained why the song slows towards its conclusion in an interview with Guitar World magazine: The truth is, Mike [Mills, bassist] slowed down the pace and we all followed, and then I noticed he looked strange. It turned out he had appendicitis and we had to rush him to the hospital. So we never wound up redoing it.[8] Peter Buck   my brain will probably never forget the phrase "berrybuckmillsstipe"

He obviously didn't know what he was talking about but that never stops animu nerds from showing off their "knowledge" of Japanese. goddamnedtwisto fucked around with this message at 20:44 on Jul 20, 2020 |
