Radical chaos pineapple. I love it. Would be great for a short film or a ship-in-a-bottle episode. I want to see a scene in which an antagonist is being really verbally abusive, but the other person hears it as being supportive. The target of the abuse kindly returns the supportive rhetoric effusively, but the abusive person can only hear the most psychologically damaging scolding they’ve ever gotten.

There’s a monkey’s-paw-style story in there somewhere about dramatic, ironic consequences, but I don’t know that I want to bring it into the world by writing it.

Extra weird for people who favor pineapple and are eating pineapple (not the pineapple, obviously. I did read the post).
“Oh my gosh! My pineapple tastes just like my grandmother’s baklava! I thought I’d never taste it again!”
“Mine taste like my Nonna’s lasagna!”
“Pirozhki. I’ve got tears.”
“How about you, Greg?”
“Hmm? Oh, yeah, it’s really good pineapple, my favorite. I used to spend summers working with my grandfather on the pineapple plantation. This is, um, nice.”

This is a really interesting question. I hope you crosspost it elsewhere so it gets the coverage it deserves.

No apology necessary. Some of the best parts of Scrubs were beating a dead horse, bits with Dr. Cox condescending to and terrorizing the interns, residents, fellows, etc.

Too true.

This should be the top comment. I’m still going to vote, for what that’s worth, but I’ll spend my time contributing to a future general strike. Historically, it’s the only thing that works. Hit 'em in the coin purse.

You’re not wrong. Still, they’re going to shoot us, like they did before, but the strike will work, like it did before. It will still be worth it for our descendants. I don’t think we’re going to get to enjoy it personally. I also don’t care. We’re not really going to get anywhere good until the average person plants trees to make shade for future generations to enjoy.
To answer some potential questions, yes, I joined a union and pay dues, attend meetings, etc. Yes, I’ve protested with them. No, I haven’t striked yet, but I’m about there. I have a lot of respect for the work we do in our industry and I don’t like the idea of work stoppages. Nonetheless, ownership has made it pretty clear that any advances we make in efficiency will be distributed among themselves with no regard to our or anyone else’s quality of life.

I’d argue that the Nixon era is more to blame by paving the way, but yeah, ultimately Reagan accomplished the most.

No, it was perfect. Thanks for keeping Scrubs alive in the wild!

This is why employers typically let someone go at the end of the day or immediately escort them outside. Props to the former employee that reminded Netflix that it’s not invulnerable.
I don’t actually know what happened. Just assuming.

Introducing the Knife Horse horse knife. It’s knives and horses all the way down.

I love the absurdity of it. Two Sentence Horror can get pretty cringey at times, although I love it when it’s done well.

Dean: Guys, I need to apologize for my behavior today. When I switched bodies with Jeffrey–
Jeff: Nope.
Dean: --I thought I knew what it would be like to have Jeffrey inside me.
Jeff: That did not happen.
Dean: But as it turns out, having Jeffrey inside of me–
Jeff: Nope again.
Dean: --only brought out the worst in me. Which is to say, having Jeffrey inside of me–
Jeff: No one was inside of anyone.
Dean: --was wrong.To have Jeffrey inside of me.
Jeff: Shut up.
Dean: So I’m sorry. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I scolded Leonard today, and according to Greendale bylaws, I now have to grant him three wishes.
