  • they’re taking advantage of the fact most people who are without prior knowledge otherwise (which is why they’re so big on targeting the young) will start to believe what the advertisers are saying is actually true – without proof – if they hear it enough.

  • Well it’s too bad that Harold Ramis is dead. I’m sure if he were alive, we’d have a new Ghostbusters movie where this cat is possessed by some powerful ghost from 1000 years ago.

    Which I never understood. Why are the ghosts always from hundreds of years ago? All their unfinished business would be finished without them. All the people they want to haunt are long dead.

    They should be like “This is the ghost of Tom! He died last week trying a stunt in real life that he watched on youtube which warned him not to try himself!” You know those cords that they call suicide cords? The ones that are 3 prong electric outlet prongs on one end, and also 3 prong outlets on the other end? They say not to plug both ends in to the same outlet. So that’s what he does, and then he dies.

    THAT should be the ghost who possesses this cat. But because it’s a cat, he still does cat stuff. Like pushing 6 foot gargoyle statues off of the ledges of skyscrapper buildings.




  • What pisses me off about this was a video I saw on youtube a few years ago. Originally recorded from a twitch stream.

    Snoop dogg was to be interviewed by some music promotion stream. He showed up 45 minutes late, and when the host was interviewing him, he asked why snoop was so late. To which snoop responded with something like “DAAAAMN! I’M HERE, AIN’T I??? DON’T WORRY WHY I’M LATE! YOU ASKIN STUPID QUESTIONS! I GET HERE WHEN I WANT TO GET HERE! THIS IS RIGHT ON TIME!!! WE WENT TO GO GET CHICKEN! CAN’T A MAN GO GET CHICKEN???”

    Then later in the interview they asked him about when he was going to release a new album. And he responded by going off on a rant about how albums don’t make money. Then he started saying all he made from spotify from people playing Doggystyle (the album that made him famous back in 1993) was $42,000 in a month.

    He was complaining about getting $42,000 from an album that came out almost 30 years prior at that point. All he did was grant spotify the right to stream his music. He didn’t record new music. He didn’t make some new project. All he did was sign a contract to make passive money from songs that were recorded a decade before most listeners were even born.

    I lost all respect for him when he casually dismissed an entire year worth of some peoples pay, to be paid to him monthly, for doing nothing. He acted entitled that it wasn’t enough. That it was insultingly low pay for a month of work.

    As much as he’s wrong to take that tone, I’m not defending spotify either. They’ve been caught, multiple times, creating fictional AI bands, so the small amount they do pay, they don’t have to pay. The idea was to slowly push real artists out, and create new pop culture icons discovered through their app. Which they don’t have to pay for ever.

    I don’t know what the plan is if ever their plan had worked, and people started demanding a tour.



  • I remember on reddit I said something to the effect of “if I were a parent I would not let my kids go in the ballpit. It’s covered in urine, and hasn’t been cleaned in decades.”

    Some idiot said that they do put the balls in a washing machine every night.

    No they don’t! They would need dozens and dozens of industrial sized washing machines to clean all the balls in one night.

    And also, how do they dry? Can’t just put them in a drier. They’ll melt.

    Hand drying would take a whole crew months.
