The stupid "eat laundry pods!" meme has actually reached this point:



The worst thing is the suspicion that this will only encourage the idiots who're already-inclined.

I guess there's a joke about winning Darwin awards in there, but really it's more a classic example of getting caught up in one of those moments of herd stupidity.

This is America, you don't criticize the choice of Baby Containment Field I've chosen to use in my own home.

That is 100% exactly what I would expect of the person in the Barney suit.

Mongrel: So hey you remember the guy who played Barney the purple dinosaur?
me: Lemme guess, he was a massive pedo and trapped children inside the suit during shows, for later "consumption"

That moment when you realize your relief that someone in the news is actually only shilling consensual adult escort services, and not what you thought at first.

I understand that if no one was young and dumb we'd have nowhere to keep all this cum, but when an entire thread of responses to that tweet os basically "it's funny because the holocaust happened" I'm a little bit more on isis' side of things.

Ok I know we don't really have to have this conversation but you do actually realize that ISIS's main beef is that we won't let them do another Holocaust, right?

It's really more of an "everyone who isn't us has abandoned god and been corrupted beyond hope" as I read it. Not that I subscribe to their magazine or PSN group or however they recruit these days.

Okay, which one of you wrote this?

NPR: Kansas Scrambles To Change Rules After 6 Teens Enter Governor's Race

You need to read it to the end (it's not a long article). The last sentence is everything.

Not phrasing it as "There's nothing in the rulebook that says a dog can't be governor" is possibly the biggest missed opportunity I've ever seen.
