A collection of weak or insignificant people are "small fry," as in baby fish. Not "small fries," like you're going to Burger King.

I mean you're doing the exact thing. I'm not trying to brag but she is a legit cutie by objective standards, and it fuckin sucks to have people I'm close with (or was, honestly rather) be all "drat you love that bimbo slut now"

Yeah, I think she's cute, but it's the single least important reason I adore her.

Feel fuckin sorry for some of y'all who seem, much like my former loved ones, really fuckin upset that you can't find anyone pretty to love you. That really sucks. You're a fuckin sad peeve though.

For the last time, nobody wants to see your homemade porn.

Wolf packs in the wild are mostly communal family units. The whole hierarchy thing happens to wolves bred in captivity. So when a dude says "I'm kind of an Alpha," he's really saying "I was raised in a cage and never allowed to mate."

Wait, abnormally big head size makes you sweaty? I've never heard of this before but I was born in the 95th percentile for skull size and I instantly believe it.

When you make negative assumptions about the future and people accuse you of being a Cassandra. The whole point is that she was right.

Yeah, the climax of Black Panther 2 thought it was super important that I see the ultra wide shot that makes it really obvious that they're all standing on a soundstage.

In general the whole Alexa thing is a sack of poo poo, and I'm glad that Amazon have discontinued any further work on it.

They're apparently relaunching it as a subscription service in June.

I got a steel stockpot and there's a tag on it imploring me to use the QR code and register my product online. It's a goddamn pot. You don't get my email.

Okay what the gently caress is it about trying to hide gifts that makes people go in the most ridiculous loving spots that they never usually go in? I swear to god it can be months that nobody looks in a particular cabinet on the porch, but I stick some valentine's candy in there and five minutes later sure enough someone's on the motherfucking porch, opening cabinet doors.

It's really nice when you have enough trust built up in an adult relationship where you can just say "Don't look in the bottom drawer of my file cabinet, I hide presents there."

Then you hide your booze there because you know they won't go poking around.

There's this trope in RPGs sometimes where a "Vorpal" weapon can kill in one stroke by decapitating enemies. But the line is

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
He swung at least 4-5 times and cut the head off after the fight was over.

I know it's petty and wrong to gatekeep. HOWEVER! I'll be five years sober next month and I would like to take a moment to roll my eyes real hard at people who throw the word "addictive" around for things like Candy Crush or Cheez-Its or whatever. I find it disrespectful to my hallucinations and all the bile I puked while drying out.

I hate when people misattribute quotes to Albert Einstein because they think it makes them sound smarter. I would yell at them about how much he'd be annoyed by that, but then *I* would be the one putting words in Einsteins mouth to sound smart. I won't be like them!

Guy on a motorcycle rolled up blasting his speakers so loud that there's no way he actually heard me shouting "loving HELL MAN, ARE YOU DEAF OR JUST UGLY?!" from the sidewalk. The woman riding on the back just smiled at me obliviously as I scowled and pointed angrily at my ears. I failed at being mean.

Does no one do the polite double-beep thing where you guys live? Where I'm from if you want to use your horn in a more friendly way you give it two quick taps.

It's the automotive equivalent of loudly clearing your throat. Same *a-HEM* cadence.

Every direction is time if you're standing on a clock. If you keep moving forward in time you will eventually cross the Time Pole and start moving clockward.

I can hear Mass getting out across town and I realize there's only so many songs you can actually play on church bells but 5 PM is too early for Lullaby and Goodnight, Catholics.

I am a grown adult man. A childproof cap just had me so stymied I was Googling the patent number on the bottle to make sure I wasn't missing out on some trick.
