- Comment on They used to send these out every year. Anyone remember what year they ended it? 2 weeks ago:
Vaguely remember getting a phone book until about 2000. After that, there were these off brand phone books that started showing up in my driveway for a few years. Those stopped around 2003 I think.

Aww. Tell them I said “Wheek wheek”!
- Comment on “It’s who I am what do that defines me” -Batman 5 weeks ago:
I’m guessing this is not real. Too many AI quirks in that image.
- Comment on Justin Baldoni Dropped From WME After Blake Lively Files Complaint Accusing Him of Sexual Harassment 5 weeks ago:
WME is his agent company. Dude barely had a career starting and he’s seemingly sunk it completely by being an asshole.
- Comment on Hypothetically, if you are a witness or whistleblower who's adversary was a very big corporation (such as boeing), what measures could you take to prevent yourself from being "suicided"? 5 weeks ago:
All it takes is money to hire someone who is capable.
- Comment on Does anyone else think the NYPD photos of the UHC CEO shooting suspect don’t match? 1 month ago:
Definately 7’ 8" female. Asian descent. Bald. Possible Alopecia. Dwarfism.

Or, girl was flirting and op missed his big chance!:
girl: You didn’t ask for consent.
op: [hands penis statue back] Can you show me?
girl: [asks penis for consent. Mimics penis responding ‘yes’ in Muppet voice. Proceeds to slowly and erotically apply condom while maintaining eye contact with op.]
op: I’m not getting it. Do you offer private tutoring?
- Comment on According to the Wall Street Journal, "Wicked" Parts One and Two cost $320 million ($160 million per film). Both parts were shot back-to-back. 2 months ago:
I want it to flop so that studios stop pulling this multi-part bullshit.

Circuit City blew all their money trying to create a disposable DVD called Divx. It was intended to replace video rental stores.

Yea, I read it. I’m not buying it.
- Comment on Seriously, what the f*** is keeping Donald Trump in this presidential race? 4 months ago:
I feel like this is just gift wrapping being a dumb racist hick in prettier paper. They are scared of cities because their full of black people, gays, and Mexicans. They like assholes who show the same level of hate as they do - who will keep the black people, gays, and Mexicans away. And they like someone who justifies hiding behind religion so they can tell themselves that God made them this dumb and rascist. So they can delude themselves into thinking they are really the good guy.

It’s not about diarrhea?!
- Comment on That Time Trump Nearly Died in a Helicopter Crash? Didn’t Happen 5 months ago:
I see they packed the dirty flag and old American milk jug for the photo op.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
It needs to be a nobody. Frankly, probably an boring older white man, so people could picture them in the Pres seat if needed, but otherwise unremarkable. Keep the interest on Kamala.
- Comment on The Conscience of the Wig 7 months ago:
Shatner definitely has them all
- Comment on Robert De Niro has award withdrawn after calling Donald Trump 'monster' outside trial 7 months ago:
At least we can look forward to Trump making fun of Dustin Hoffman for being denied the award.
- Comment on Old comic, more relevant than ever 8 months ago:
As an older developer, you could replace “machine learning” with “statistical modeling” and “artificial intelligence” with “machine learning”.

- Comment on ‘Romeo & Juliet’ Play Starring Tom Holland and Francesca Amewaduh-Rivers Faces ‘Barrage of Racial Abuse,’ Producer Says ‘This Must Stop’ 9 months ago:
It’s clearly there in the first lines of the play:
Two households, both alike in dignity and whiteness, In fair Verona where we lay our scene,
- Comment on Screenbound is a platformer where you play in 2D and 3D together 9 months ago:
All the thrills of texting and driving?
It’s novel, but watching the video, I just want them to put the damn device down and focus.
- Comment on [Weekly thread] What have you been watching lately? 30 March 2024 9 months ago:
- Lift - Netflix - total garbage. Like a really bad "oceans 11"
- Shogun - Hulu - Pretty entertaining. It’s 50% culture clash between Japan and a “Barbarian” from London, and 50% warring Japanese clans.
- Bill Burr - Paper Tiger - Netflex standup. The feminism jokes at the beginning already feel dated, but if you stick it out, the latter half is pretty great.
- Halo - Paramount+ - Season 1 was fun, but pretty slow. Season 2 picks up and starts to have a compelling story. I never played the game btw.
- Curb your Enthusiasm - HBO (I’m not calling it Max - no one knows what that is). For me, this continues to be some of the best comedy I’ve ever watched.

Somehow, Archimedes returned
- Comment on What does "araffe" mean? 10 months ago:
Whatever/whoever posts these captions used to often use the word “lingers” to describe lingerie. Ex: “Women in lingers on a bed.”
One day, some guy responded to a post and said he couldn’t take it anymore and to stop saying it. It actually stopped. Hasn’t used that word since as far as I’ve seen.
- Comment on What does "araffe" mean? 10 months ago:
It’s the new “lingers”
- Comment on oc based on a true story 10 months ago:
Did he hit his head? The lead kick in?
I’m only half joking. I had a neighbor who I used to describe as slightly conservative-leaning. He suffered a brain injury on the job and is now a full tilt QAnon MAGA goofball.
- Comment on Can you live a fulfilling life with autism? 10 months ago:
Autism, especially higher functioning, often comes with clinical-level anxiety. Definately talk to a psychiatrist and therapist. If you’re already on anxiety meds that aren’t working, try a different one. Keep in mind that the wrong one can cause suicidal thoughts. They vary quite a bit, and new ones are coming out all the time. You’ll eventually find one that helps take the edge off your anxiety. That will help you cope with the other things better. From my experience, things also get naturally better as you age, so there is light in the tunnel.
- Reviews for "Leave The World Behind" being brigaded with copy/paste negative reviews - presumably because it was produced by the Obamas.g.co ↗Submitted 1 year ago to mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world | 93 comments
- Comment on Dollar Stores: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO) 1 year ago:
Dollar General is not a “dollar store”. It just happens to have the word “dollar” in the name. They are a normal general store whose bread and butter are poor neighborhoods or far enough out in the sticks that Walmart won’t build.
- Comment on Thinking of visiting a pawn shop. What should I know? 1 year ago:
I see what you did there. I’m wondering if others don’t get it, or just don’t like the joke.
- Comment on McDonald's franchisee group says new $20 minimum wage California fast-food bill will cause 'devastating financial blow' 1 year ago:
BS. They said the same thing about $15, then COVID forced it on them (and presumably also raised their own costs for supplies), and it’s been fine. I think my McDs charges 1.25 for a soda now instead of a dollar.
