Radiohead sued Lana Del Rey over her song “get free” because it’s a shameless loving copy of creep. She owes them like 40% of all royalties post law suit. It’s worth a listen because it’s impossible to not hear Creep being played.

Also the cat looks like Thom Yorke.

I’ll hang up and listen.

I was wondering what STP and The Vines had to do with the meme.

Chandler is the guy who is constantly doing zingers on everyone around him, but they like him anyway. For years he's been coasting through life with a "temporary" job doing data entry.

Ross is a nerdy guy who has had a crush on his little sister's best friend since they were all teenagers, but never had the guts to mention it to her. He's a paleontologist who works at a museum and is the only one of the friends making enough money to have his own apartment without needing a roommate. He had a pet monkey.


Soooo . . . neither?

Chandler also makes enough money (by the end) to have his own apartment - he just lets Joey mooch. So the only thing Ross has is the pet monkey.

Well, yeah. But if you skip to the end Ross isn't an incel anymore either.

It's about the midway point somewhere where Chandler gets successful. Ross is always someone they should have severed - even right at the end.

That's easy.

A mortgage is where the bank buys a house, and you agree to buy the house from the bank.

The bank pays $200,000 for the house. They then charge you $1050 a month for 30 years.

"But wait" you say, "that works out to $378,000! That's nearly double!"

"Yes" I say.

"LOL, gently caress you, pay me" laughs the bank. "What are you gonna do about it, pay $1,800 in rent? Suck my dick."

Why are these numbers so low?

I was wearing my robe/kaftan down the street and saw a guy waiting to make an illegal turn that, living nearby, I know that causes a incredible amount of accidents

So I called out "double line dickhead" and pointed to the sign and the guy driving just had no response to a guy in a dress actively calling out his bad driving

That's my robe story

Also, lot of robe wearers ITT

Maybe it depends on your state. In NSW you can cross double lines to turn right at an intersection, to enter/leave properties, or to pass cyclists to maintain 1.5 m distance and avoid road obstructions. Unless otherwise signposted.

You cannot here, only to pass a cyclist, and there was a big sign there in front of the driver

I lived like 80 Meters from it and there was easily a crash/ding/squeezing brakes there once a month and the sign had been added in response

I'll try and remember next time I drive in QLD.

There's been some benefits Hawkins played in the past for some "autism" group which is probably linked to anti-vax. But then again the Foo Fighters were playing Vax only shows and getting protested by anti-vaxxers. So googling makes it hard to find out exactly.
