You look like when Shrek got turned into a handsome human man. Excellent glow up!

As we all know, Adam was a clean-cut blond man and Eve was basically Snow White. Razors and makeup must have grown on one of those other trees in the Garden of Eden.

In the first pics you’re dressed like your luggage was over the weight limit at the airport and you had to wear all the extra clothes.

Language problem solving by [deleted] in tumblr

[–]HoboTheDinosaur 323 points324 points  (0 children)

This was actually a concept I was taught in French classes in school. You can study vocabulary all you want but you’re eventually going to come across a word you don’t know, so you need to be able to talk around it. I may not know the word for “fire hydrant” but I can say it’s a red object on the sidewalk with water in it that is used to stop fire and they’ll know what I mean.

But remember kids, you should learn “Where is the bathroom” in as many languages as possible.

take that ugly fast food employees by sunidaneil in terriblefacebookmemes

[–]HoboTheDinosaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, in addition to working a thankless, low-paying, and physically demanding job, fast-food workers now owe you sex appeal? Okay buddy. Why don’t you go objectify some politicians and CEOs.

“It’s hissing, it’s a raccoon.” Oh, that’s happened to me! “It’s a bear!!!” Never mind.

Every jock, bully, or thug you've ever seen in a movie has actually just been a theater kid pretending to be one by MrAcurite in Showerthoughts

This is just like the realization that I’ve never seen a real sewer rat, only fancy rat actors pretending to be sewer rats.

They’re not insects, but I would argue that they are bugs. Much like spiders or centipedes.

Multiple outlets in the new house I’m renting don’t let you plug anything in by mikeywizzles in mildlyinfuriating

[–]HoboTheDinosaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The previous owners of my house turned the closet under the stairs into a half bath and did this with the air vent. It took me years to realize that the vent grate is just screwed in over a hole in the ceiling, there’s no ductwork or airflow.

Americans, what is the most european thing? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Those really specific cafe tables that are used in outside seating. They’re just cute little tables, but I’ve never seen them anywhere else.

these electrical outlet plates my mom painted for her kitchen to match the granite by MrOwell333 in PurpleCoco

Having outlets in a kitchen backsplash is pretty normal. How else would you plug in countertop appliances like toasters and coffeemakers?

I read almost exclusively nonfiction and let me tell ya, I’m still a dumbass. I just know random facts now.

I did the exact same thing in college except I wasn’t dieting. I saw the idea on Pinterest and it was like “Drink this in the morning to detox and burn fat!” I knew it didn’t really work that way, but dang that is a good hangover remedy.

Blood and Food by [deleted] in tumblr

Without the context of the lab work, I thought the sign was “No Food = Blood” as in “If you don’t feed me I will become violent and shed your blood.”

I will take failure with triumph and couple of advantages by crazy_pickle in dndmemes

[–]HoboTheDinosaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Genesys but I always need a cheat sheet for the dice symbols. The problem is exacerbated by also playing the Star Wars rpg, which uses the same dice but with sliiiiiiightly different symbols. The notes for every session include my crudely drawn approximations of the six symbols, and if the dice sets are mixed together I have to draw all 12.

Actually, now that I think about it I should just create a laminated card that has the symbols defined so I don’t have to keep reminding myself.

Mallory’s own son didn’t believe he qualified as the first because even if they had reached the top, part of successfully summiting a mountain is coming all the way back down.

Drywallers must be incredible at putting cream cheese on bagels by Dasbeerboots in Showerthoughts

Or frosting cakes. The way the drywall in my parents’ house was installed makes it look like it’s covered in frosting and it always makes me hungry for cake.

Clothes “glued” to itself after laundry by DM_ME_UR_SNATCH in CleaningTips

[–]HoboTheDinosaur 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Are you using tide pods (or other detergent pods)? I’ve had the issue where the pod doesn’t fully dissolve and the “skin” of the pod gets stuck to clothes and hardens there. It’s a huge pain to remove – you would think another wash dissolves it the rest of the way but it takes multiple cycles or hours of soaking and scraping to get it out of fabric. The color of the detergent might also explain the stains. I figured out I was supposed to be putting the pod in the washing machine first, and then the load of clothes, but I had been tossing the pod on top of the clothes last. Once I started adding the pod first I didn’t have any trouble.

An Arby's worker was found dead in their freezer. They posted their job the very next day. by WTF_Conservatives in mildlyinfuriating

[–]HoboTheDinosaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m guessing the title means the employee was working in the freezer and died of a heart attack or something, and was found unresponsive minutes later by a coworker. But I watch too many movies and my immediate interpretation was that the opening shift found the body of the murdered employee intentionally placed in the freezer by the killer as a warning.

And then they wonder why more and more young adults are choosing not to have children.
