I think we can all agree it's a good thing at least we don't live in the Berensteen Bears universe.

Fuck that place.

"I was a landlord and I couldn't figure out how to squeeze the tenants for every cent so the meme is entitled garbage" is quite the take, and honestly hilarious given the community it's posted in.

8, but I settle into a 9 when I'm in a good mood

There was once an emergency medical flight coming into the hospital I live next to, but someone noticed that a person had parked dead center of the helipad.

The hospital was undergoing some construction, and the crew was on site at the time.

To my understanding, nobody saw what happened and no cameras caught it, but the car miraculously ended up about 40ft away from where it was parked, with orange-yellow paint scraped along one side and heavy equipment track imprints in the grass next to the pad.

The helicopter was able to land, and someone had to decide whether they wanted to admit to blocking the helipad and try to blame the construction company for damages, or let it go and drive around with a big dent in one side of the car.

English IS my first language and it still tripped me up. It's an easy thing to swap, especially without much context.

I read it as "to break off" not "to temporarily interrupt"

I respect drag.

I cannot respect showering corporations with money to buy lights to cover your already unnecessarily large mcmansion in gaudy baubles, and waste enormous amounts of electricity for over a month just so everyone can see how much more "festive" you are than your neighbor.

The money wasted on the setup in just one of these pictures alone could feed dozens of homeless for a month. And I think feeding the hungry fits in way better with the supposed theme of Christmas.

It worked so well in the 1930s and 40s!

Han solo didn't "shoot first", he was the only one who shot, period.

Greedo didn't shoot the wall (and miss a 6ft target sitting 2ft away), that was added (poorly) many years later for a special edition.

They changed the movie because in the interim years, George Lucas was feeling like it made Han Solo look less "noble" and more scoundrel-like.

By all means, inform us of all you are doing to help so we can also support things.

Otherwise you're just trying to feel morally superior
