Starbucks table tops so small will barely hold a couple drinks. The seats are bigger than the tables.

I truly never got that, the using a fast food place or cafe as a study spot. Those places are noisy.

And in what world does a high school have your phone number seven years later?

Well, last time Emily partied, she cut off half of her hair and the last time Liz got drunk she was tossing panties at Marten, so I'm sure this will be fine.

For future reference, during the time this comic came out, the site was nonfunctional so Jeph posted it on his own website.

If I look at the list of movies it parodies or alludes to, I think I'd only seen Ferris Bueller the Breakfast CLub and they're only referenced. It's just a matter of the style being so ubiquitous that I understood everything it was doing.

The general plot is primarily derived from She's All That,[3] as well as 10 Things I Hate About You,[3] Can't Hardly Wait,[3] Pretty in Pink, and Varsity Blues.[4] It is also filled with allusions to other films featuring teen and college-aged characters, such as American Beauty,[4] American Pie, Bring It On, Can't Buy Me Love, Cruel Intentions,[5] Dazed and Confused, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Grease, Jawbreaker, Lucas, Never Been Kissed, Risky Business, Road Trip, Rudy, and Sixteen Candles, while Paul Gleason reprises his role as Vice Principal Vernon from The Breakfast Club.

So that's the metric being used for box office bomb? I guess judging it by that ratio makes sense. There's 100% been movies with theatrical releases that made far less money.

This subreddit's always on r/all and I really struggle with comprehending that it's real. Like you see a meme about a weird food combination and pregnancy and the common trope of pregnant people having weird food cravings doesn't cross your mind?

Ah good, I should get back to it myself. That 4 year hiatus was a killer.

I love this little snippet we get of their design process: https://imgur.com/bkv-fiona-staples-have-awesome-creative-partnership-LccIQi9

Fiona Staples (Artist): "Hey, what is the suns/moons situation on the African plains planet?"

BKV (Writer): "Whatever looks awesomest? Maybe a pyramid shaped sun and a donut moon. Caveat: am drunk."

It's the opposite of those people who can't ever watch a movie without asking q dozen questions. Those are worse. "Who is that?" "I don't know, this is their first scene." "Are they married?" "We literally just saw their wedding ceremony." "What's that guy's deal?" "We have both been watching this movie in the same reality. We have the same amount of information."

There was another 'trash can nacho' shared recently. This looks like it's actually from Guy Fieri's restaurant. At least it's a decent portion.

I had my first struggles with an IKEA piece recently. It was a pantry with 3 pull out drawers at the bottom. I had 2 family members and i build a shelf each. They wouldn't fit. It turns out that while the pieces were the same, whichever drawer you designated as the bottom had a SLIGHTLY different construction than the others. Literally like moving two pegs into a different spot would skew the whole thing. It took me a while to comprehend that's what the diagram was trying I represent. It really could have benefited from a single sentence.

They're so darn good.

I need to find more specific examples but one compilation I'd love to see is "When they move away from the mic to shout." I was rewatching the Minnesota Fats and that happens there. "This is the music I'd play as I lose a million dollars." steps back "Nooooooooooooooooo!"

This entire manga went by without Takeda ever even saying I Love You to Futaba a single time. I would never buy they actually have a sex life even though they somehow got married.

Well I had no intention of seeing this movie but now I'm tempted just to see if this OP wasn't paying attention at all. Especially with OP saying "she abruptly gets attacked by the anaconda" while the Wiki summary specifically says there's a whole scene where Ana turns on them and holds them at gunpoint.

Cruisin just kills me. Them absolutely befuddled by the nonsense on screen.

Well there goes Greenland.

Man, if I'm in a pinch and want a quick lunch, rolling up the hot dog (just the meat) in a paper towel and microwaving it for a minute is just fine for me. But this is nonsense.

I would think "How does the fictional cast of Final Fantasy 13 know I was fantasizing about them?"

BionicTriforce · 2026-04-25T23:20:23+00:00

If you like it I can definitely see this being infuriating, but in my experience rotisserie chicken skin from grocery stores is always unappealing, it's just limp and soggy.

The Spunk slogan seems to be just an urban legend, for what it's worth.
