Zactly. The Nazis can’t have my “OK” sign just because a couple of them randomly claimed it meant something "secret."

Oh, now Colin’s just making shit up to mess with the white people in marketing.

No, if there is some additional evidence that this flag is being used by a significant group of hate groups, then it needs not be commercially used for anything. However, if it’s just this one instance? Then, yeah, it’s a complete overreaction.  You don’t give up a symbol or item to a hate that easily.

I guess you could say these are the Droidekas players were looking for

Pat Bowlen, Lady Godiva, and 1989 Joe Montana?

How in the hell do you know what the scoreboard advertisement designer had meant to do from the context of this photo?

A dropped fork in my own house?  No problem.  A dropped fork in a restaurant? No way I’m using it.  It’s not an assessment of the cleanliness of the restaurant but just of reality.  The floor immediately below your table has had the feet, or more specifically the bottoms of the shoes of every previous customer that…

Better question: “Do servers actively wait until you are mid-chew to come up and ask how everything is?”

They also go from “aww, look how adorable you are!”, to: “JESUS CHRIST, LOCK THE DOORS!” in roughly .5 seconds.

So we’re all going to pass over his mounted spud-gun howitzer?

This gives me my second opening today to relate my “raccoons are clever little bastards” story. I was on a Boy Scout camping trip years ago and we realized we forgot bungie cords to secure the lid of our cooler overnight. We decided instead to drag a picnic table on top of the cooler so the bench part was holding the…

The only thing keeping raccoons from stealing cars is they can’t reach the pedals. Once autonomous cars become widely available expect to see raccoons in cars racing down the highway. Which won’t be half as terrifying as the occasional black bear trapped in a self-driving Subaru, clawing at the doors trying to escape.

It would take a real qwyjibo to miss all those references.

and in some cases, fully automatic machine guns

I, for one, welcome our new procyonidean overlords.

This post contains the requisite amount of Simpsons references. Well done sir. A cromulent job all around.
