Well… You are a terrible influence and I love it! 😂
Hi I want to say. This seems cool in theory but please do not try this on your front door or other doors that you ever want to be able to lock again.
I know this is going to sound really dumb, and I’m not proud of it, but one day I got locked out of the house and, because I had seen this exact post like once, and having plenty of bobbi pins on my dumbass head, decided I might as well try and pick the lock. In my defense, I was in the middle of a nervous breakdown and was fully aware that I probably wasn’t going to be able to actually pull it off, but figured I’d try to amuse myself for the hour or so I had to wait for my mom to come home.
HERE’S THE CATCH. LOCKS ARE REALLY, REALLY FUCKING SENSITIVE. If you fuck around with them even a little bit, you will just absolutely ruin it and the key will be completely useless from that point onward. Obviously this did not occur to me in time to stay my destructive little idiot hands. The many times that I have seen thieves and cool action heroes pick locks in movies or vidya games, it was in situations where they didn’t really give a shit if they ruined the lock forever. But, that’s what I did to the front door of my own fucking house. Spoiler: I didn’t even manage to get in. I just fucked up the lock so bad that NO KEY WOULD WORK. That was fun to explain to my mom when she got home to let me in with her now completely useless key. I wound up climbing in through a window and we had to replace the front door lock.
So yeah. Your thieves skill did not increase from seeing this post but my Dumb Idiot That Fucks Up Everything skill skyrocketed. Please don’t be like me.
i made my cat listen to the audio clip in from the article + he loved it
I called my skittish kitty, Aislynn, into the bedroom and up onto the bed next to me, and I played the Cozmo’s Air for her. No reaction. But she’s my “suckler” kitty, who does nursing paws and drools on stuff when she is happy. So I put on Rusty’s Ballad instead. And she stopped moving, just staring at me like she’d found god. Then she closed her eyes. I played it again and she carefully laid down with her head near the speaker of my laptop. I paid for and downloaded the whole song immediately and halfway through playing the full song, my other cat came into the room and stared at the computer like she had also found god, and now they are both laying near me listening with their eyes slitted and their ears ticking.
I bought this mug last year specifically to take to staff meetings, thesis defenses, and guest lectures and let me tell you the amount of grumpy old physicists that were absolutely delighted by this mug warms my heart
tHIS IS THE SINGLE MOST BRILLIANT THING I HAVE EVER HEARD I WAS IN HYSTERICS AT 2 CUIL
i find this hilarious considering The Cuil Theory was a popular meme back in 2012, with a similar format as a popular Welcome To Nightvale meme. “weird” posts would usually have an additional reblog with “and now, the weather” in reference to WTNV but for a few months, “weird’ posts would be ended with “i give you a hamburger”. the peak of the meme was around late october of 2012, the actual video itself being published february of 2012.
Can I just say, from the bottom of my heart, in regards to Dewayne Johnson winning his lawsuit against Monsanto and being awarded $289 million in damages and also lost 11 BILLION in stock value following the jury’s decision and also opened up legal precedent against Monsanto for other people to go after them for damages thanks to exposure to their shit;
FUCKING GOOD, and also my deepest sympathy to Mr. Johnson, who has terminal cancer thanks to their products, but FUCKING GOOD, FUCK YOU MONSANTO, SUCK A THOUSAND HORSE DICKS IN HELL
Consider this my open request to society: destroy them. If you have the money and the misfortune of being able to take these fuckers to court, then destroy them.
They’ve got other similar lawsuits still ongoing against them right now that total $5.5 BILLION in damages sought.
This lawsuit can now be cited by all the others, and I promise it will be.
And gods, but I hope that it ruins them.
For those of you who don’t recognize the name “Monsanto” they produce Roundup, which is a herbicide (weed killer) known for killing weeds but not crops.
Roundup, incidentally, is specifically the chemical that Mr. Johnson was exposed to that contributed to his terminal cancer.
There are about 5,000 more current lawsuits being filed against Monsanto for the same thing. Monsanto claims Roundup is safe, and points to lots of studies done on it…the majority of which, coincidentally, have been conducted by/funded by Monsanto.
One of the main points in the trial was recently unearthed evidence that shows that Monsanto has been actively suppressing studies that show that Roundup is dangerous for decades now.
