Absolutely. This is my problem with the Big Bang Theory. The jokes are not about ‘science things’ or ‘nerdy things’ - they’re other jokes with the names of science or nerdy things randomly inserted. Them being universally targeted isn’t necessarily a bad thing - comedy doesn’t have to be niche and intellectual to be…

Oh yeah that’s what I always thought - just standard sitcom jokes!

And here in a state that abolished the helmet law because FREEDOM, I dearly want to scribble “Start wearing helmets!” on those douchebags’ bumper stickers.

But that’s all groups. Emos, goths, hipsters— all of those people look and act the same. They looked like glossy young women; nothing weird about it at all.

In my experience, a baseball game is something happening in the background while you drink overpriced beer and hang out with your dad. Every so often something happens, but you can usually tell when its about to.

They were participating in a promotion that involved taking selfies put on by the stadium. It had just been announced right before this clip.

Hm. My face sweats more than most people. Definitely. That started in my late 20s, I would say. I went through kind of a sweaty period in my 20s, but I think I’m average now. I’m just very sensitive to temperature changes now, for sure.

My daughter for years called a penis a tail. “My daddy has a tail!” it was great.

When my mom was in the ICU, families of the other critical patients took turns buying deli platters for the ICU waiting room; apparently it’s a tradition in some towns. Made me sniffly with gratitude, not lying.

911 Police Dispatch Centers do that a lot, too. People always kind of forget about the people taking the 911 calls from victims of events like this, even though technically, they are first on scene.

Um...how is 9 or 10 way too young to be exposed to reproductive stuff? I’m sure I’m not the only woman who got her first period at age 9 - good thing I knew what it was, and didn’t think I was dying, right? Children should know the proper names for body parts as young as they can pronounce them, and not be given a…

My kid (age 6) sees me naked all the time. I don’t think it even registers with her anymore.

Thats also what sexism does. If a man is anything but a perfect “man” it is debilitating, especially for someone a bit borderline. We need to stop pigeonholing people into specific gendered roles. Its not healthy.

I mean, I tend to be an isolated weirdo but I’m not about to murder people for kicks.

...except agriculture yields a commodity, a product... that provides a purpose, meets a need.... how dumb are people to continually compare this to using water for green lawns and infinity pools?

Uh, that is a rather significant drop. That could water a farm in itself.

Because teachers are grossly underpaid? We maximize corporate profits at the expense of paying actual living wages to workers, public servants, and anyone not middle management and above? Is that really the argument you want to make?

the gif always fills me with such wonder. what happened right before!? what was said?!

sometimes when i’m in class i will get distracted thinking about where i would hide or how i would play dead if a shooter walked into the classroom. i think all of us who were old enough to experience columbine have never really felt safe in school, and it’s only gotten worse in recent years (virginia tech, sandy…

Holy shit, if this woman did not consent to this, let her rain fire and brimstone upon them until even their bones have turned to ash. I want their children’s children’s children to still be paying her, and I want these people in jail.
