Thankfully, I've never imagined gaining anything from my mom when she passes some day. Thankfully her parents set up a trust so she isn't homeless, but when she finally gives in to assisted living, those bills will eat whatever is left.

She's always like, "but I'm leaving you the house!"

The house is full of worthless collectibles and smells terrible after decades of floods and cats. If she got hit by a bus tomorrow I'd probably sell it to one of those seedy We Buy Ugly Houses companies.

It is common for people to vote Mickey Mouse as a write in for voters that are unhappy with the names on the ballot. Sometimes a humorous Write In gets a decent chunk of the vote.

It looks exactly like a 'rad car' that I doodled in my social studies notebook after slamming two bottles of Robitussin.

My last office job was QA at a game studio. They kept our whole team in a stuffy windowless room full of partitions. Three screens took up the one desk that was only a bit wider than your chair.

When feeding time happened you could hear everyone's lips smacking.

I would have killed for a cubicle like this.

The devs out in the civilized part of the office had open plan, but they had L desks and 4-6 screens. Some had mini fridges and drawers.

I played Phantasmagoria 2 and knew it was supposed to take place in a brutally oppressive corporate hellscape, but each characters cubicle seemed expansive and cozy.

Look at the king of England over here with a pillow and a double wide mattress!

An autistic life isn't a ruined life.

I've been awake too long, but isn't murdering infidels and blowing up thousands of years of culture so you can seize a land promised to you by an invisible omnipotent being that only important powerful people can talk to kind of like the Crusades?

I could be wrong. I'm an illiterate pagan. I find religious expression hugging trees and doing a number of other activities in the nude.

I paid for an argument, this is just contradiction!

Am I the only one that misses a thick bezel?

Imagine being a five year old and being forced to film an unboxing vid whenever you got a toy in the mail.

Imagine becoming popular online at 6 and the toys start coming in the mail so fast you can't even play with them, there is always more unboxing to do.

Imagine being 14, and everytime you tripped, sneezed, misspoke, cried was documented and shared across a dozen networks.
