I think there’s a good bit of sincerety even within the meme, at least in art/craft communities. He’s kind of the patron saint of not getting stressed over your work, and a lot of people will pass on his videos, or gifs of them, as a calming aid.

Wait, he died in 1995? I thought it was a more recent passing, damn how time flies. He died when I was 7, I think that’s the time both of my grandparents died too, they couldn’t get their Ross fix so they gave up on life. It surely wasn’t the anger, alcohol or 10 packs a day that killed them.

He learned from this guy the wet on wet technique. They had a falling out

... how do you follow the chat on a twitch stream?

I always loved watching Bob Ross as a kid. My older brother and I would watch Bob Ross and then the Frugal Gourmet. Good times!

It makes me sad that there are kids today who wouldn’t know who Bob Ross is. So thank goodness for stuff like this.

I’m a guy, and this horrifies me more than I can express.

Chris Christie would be Luca Brasi, the physical and mental similarities are just too close.

Trump would be Jack Wolz ( the guy whose bed they dump the head in). Powerful, blustery guy who spews racial slurs and enacts petty revenge.

Uh. Jeb likens himself to a crime boss because of his ability to veto and cut budgets? Does he think that’s supposed to be cool or sexy? Because like, though The Godfather is a great book and film, Vito Corleone is a horrible human being.

Jeb! is no Vito Corleone. He is clearly Fredo Corleone.

Kind of a dick? I lived in Florida during his entire Governorship. Dude is a straight up tight-fisted cock-muncher.

A list of daily affirmations :(

A metaphor

Except the bike was attempting a double pass, the bike wasn't anywhere near him until it attempted to pass both the car and SUV behind the car. I doubt he even knew the bike was there.

common courtesy dictates that when there’s traffic behind you, you match the number on the sign or you pull over.

a) You probably don’t ride. Believe me, there are plenty of places that are unsafe for a car to pass where it’s no problem for a bike (either due to the bike being able to do the pass or simply because of things like better sightlines due to lane positioning etc). So it comes down to The Law vs. common sense, being…

Looks to me like a case of asshole (swerving into them) on asshole (speeding recklessly, passing in a no passing zone, no safety clothing) crime.

This was like when they’d ask Chris Farley to play every fat white politician: “Newt Gingrich” = Farley in a white wig, not perceptibly trying to do the voice. It was pretty excellent.
