And it's dark and there is nobody driving And something has got to give

Back in my adolescent dork days, I was on a roleplaying message board that had "cock" on its autocensor, which produced a lot of simultaneously incoherent and filthy sentences about characters ****ing their heads

how is it even a "challenge?"

like what's supposed to be challenging about it? it's extremely easy to do, just dangerous.

the article its pulling from is a list of dangerous things kids might get tricked into doing because they are called challenges, they arent things that are actually being done

yeah no i'm not mad at alexa, i'm mad at the kids on tiktok calling every dumb poo poo trend a "challenge." it's not a challenge unless it's difficult to do.

water bottle flipping was a challenge. dumping an ice bucket on your head is unpleasant, but not difficult, and thus not really a challenge. dropping a penny onto an electrical plug is just being stupid for views

the ice bucket challenge was named that because you would challenge people to do it, not because it's hard to accomplish

also the other half of it was after you dumped yourself you said "hey <named person>, donate to charity or dump an ice bucket on yourself" and it very quickly became "just dump an ice bucket on yourself and post it on youtube." hopefully the als people got a couple of bucks out of it at least.

classic case of pineapple derangement syndrome

the first computer i ever used was a teletype connected to a mainframe via an acoustic coupler. I got to go play chess on it during class cause i was in some gifted program. I have really fond memories of the noise it made and the little paper tape reader.
