Double trouble. 🙂

...and the carrot thief. 😍

Easy enough...

analogharbor442 said:🙏 🙏 🙏 I never had the patience to sit through Winnie's stuff—honestly, that original writing style is just too much. I got so fed up with it that I decided to teach myself how to read when I was only four and a half, just so I wouldn't have to rely on anyone else.

Same here, I’m with Bee on this one... though I only got Winnie after finishing fifth grade. Parents, man. 😍

Feeling pretty emotional right now. 😢 😍

unnamed person, anyone looking to offload a Bee?

lonebison37 said:I left the Barber concert about a third of the way through. Pretty sure they're still playing. You can probably do the math yourself.

😈

Out of those picture books, I can only vaguely remember Joe Poriluk and Tony Rajcica... Joe had a skateboard, and someone knit him a sweater that just kept falling apart... or maybe that was someone else. And wasn't Tony Rajcica a painter? She messed up all her colors. Or something. 🤔

Favorite picture books with blobby characters:
1. Barber
2. The Happy Crew from Timbuktu

boldscout72 said:So they finally shut up. 😬

🙂 They were actually decent back then. If I were fifteen again, I’d probably have a massive crush on every single member of the band. 😍

hollowseal33, his stylist basically finished him off...

My memory is a little fuzzy on this one... 😢

Why did they turn the lights on on the Lieutenant? 😢

gentlepuma20 said:you seriously use way too many sad faces in your posts 😁

Because I'm wasted. 😁

Am I really the only one here who actually digs both Joy Division albums?😢

hollowseal33 said:Both the President and the KCP. 😬

Facts. 👍 👍 👍

Robert Wright4 said:Man, I'd love to see the President too, but I doubt I'll live that long.

Just skip JJ and Cincinato and you might actually make it to the President.

Robert Wright4 said:...so everyone’s gonna be shoving each other at Spider. We’ve got 2k ready, so we can actually pick our spot.

You can always just hang out at Kset cafe. Last year was such a zoo that people were practically falling off the balcony.😁

I’d bet my life on the FBI. 😢

Top 5 mythical creatures I can actually draw:

1. unicorn
2. mermaid
3. dragon
4. pixie
5. some kind of avenging angel

🤣 Man, where have I seen this before... 😂

My top 3 versions of "If I Had a Hammer":

1. some salmon singing
2. a complete tone-deaf disaster that inspires Dick Clark to host a show where people mock their own talents like in Confessions of a Dangerous Mind
3. a MIDI file from this page

Honestly, I’ve never actually heard the original version or anything where someone sings it properly. I have zero clue how this song is even supposed to sound, which is pretty hilarious 🤣

Haha, look at what else I found 😂

gentlepuma20 said:Is that some kind of forum slang? Yeah, I guess so.

Just talking to little Sid now and he says the same thing. It's 100% true.

Timothy Jones85 said:Look, most people think just like you. They either don't realize other cultures exist, or they do and fall into cultural relativism—thinking our culture is only "superior" because of tech, while those other cultures actually run circles around us when it comes to spirituality and wisdom.

🙄 🙄 🙄

Where did you get the idea that I think Western civilization is superior? I was just saying every culture is civilized... basically, that "civilization" isn't a word that only belongs to Western culture.

Back to the topic... here are the top 3 forum slang terms that actually made it into everyday speech:
1. altronativno
2. gejpeder
3. government schemes

Timothy Jones85 said:hmm, gentlepuma20 what do you think—how many human cultures are out there besides "civilized" ones?

All human cultures are civilized. Or are you just thinking about Western culture?

ari peka nikkola said:what’s the point of a grasshopper?

To jump while throwing sand in the eyes of the snake trying to eat it. 🥳

coastalpanther11 said:In short: those guys in the band are basically Gilmour. Just playing random stuff non-stop. 😁

In short, 🤣 Gilmour 😂 👍

Can anyone actually report this right now? I highly doubt it was just a one-off.

Susan Clark10 said:Okay, I tried it, can you hear me now? 😁

Just kidding, that was useless. Now my nails are all messed up. 😉

Man, that sound makes my skin crawl too. It's like when someone scrapes a fork against a plate. Just pure cringe.

Sandra Chase16 said:John Wrong's hat looks better than his suit.

Honestly, that hat on John Wrong is perfect.😍

Anthony Davis6 said:I'm so sick of all these so-called "animal lovers" and their little clubs. If things worked their way, we'd all be dropping dead from basic pneumonia or some other minor crap.

Don't even get me started on how they'd just walk right past someone lying in the street with a broken leg or arm... God forbid they actually look at someone who doesn't fit their "perfect" image. They wouldn't give them the time of day.

As long as some sparrow from Domino's is a freaking martyr, they're happy. Such hypocrites... yikes.

My blood pressure spiked when they started those fundraisers for animals hit by the tsunami. Before that, I had a tiny bit of sympathy for what they did—meaning I didn't think they were *all* idiots—but now? I take them just as seriously as the members of Heaven's Gate.☕

I have no clue what you guys are even talking about 😢
