  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

Shouldn't Easter be an egg holiday?

Not everyone likes eggs. And it's not inclusive of vegan.

Not everyone likes chocolate, and for the 7 people worldwide who are both deeply Christian and vegan, you can celebrate the holiday by hatching an egg.

I'm sorry it was funny the way I said it out loud. I hang my head in shame

I want the hatching an egg tradition. Every year you get a new mystery chicken.

According to this guy, it's a chocolate holiday. Idk what the potato is for but I would just make it more about eggs and egg dishes.

Idk what the potato is for

It's for boiling, and mashing, and sticking in a stew.

You can also power a clock with it.
