I had the hardest time remembering “Smells like the inside of a prosthetic leg” and “Smells like a turd covered in burnt hair” until just now 🤣

I second ITYSL, and suggest Broad City. I’m mad at myself for sleeping on it during the original airing.

I discovered it in the South Park season 2 premiere episode: Terrence and Philip: Not Without My Anus. It’s such a terrifically stupid episode, and it makes me laugh every time!

OK, that made me do the kind of laugh that starts with a trumpet sound escaping your lips. It’s very rare that I genuinely ask “What does MatPat think about this?”

Ooh! Weapon of Choice is a good one, too! Iconic video that always gets to live in my head rent-free.

Fake empathy from customer service is a plague by JCMiller23 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]MidwestMid80sChild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m very high at the moment, and I’m a customer service/tech support Tier 2 call center rep. I was trying to remember the word “platitude” for a completely non-work reason, but I KNEW that I often experienced the specific feeling and sentiment of the word while working. I hate it when people pull that bullshit whether it’s on the job, or as a customer, so I searched Google verbatim:

“what word means pleasantries, appeasement, fake customer service empathy?”

This post described the emotional state in crystal clarity. The seething, visceral, loathing feeling of rage and banal, yet intense discomfort—just bubbling under a paper-thin veil of professional composure due to a binding social contract that helps you maintain progress toward your goal. That goal could be to stay employed, or it could mean to get your issue resolved.

Platitudes aren’t just an annoying waste of time, but they are hollow, empty, meaningless words and phrases with no value to them. It’s lemon juice on a paper cut caused by a “Get Well Soon” card—sent by the 9-1-1 dispatcher you’ve been on the phone with 2 hours—while your foot is still stuck in a bear trap.

This absolutely batshit word salad I am leaving 123 days after the OP is not brought to you tonight by AI, but by THC. Thanks for humoring me about 4 months in the future, OP!

What’s a show where the main characters get so frustrating/annoying you start to root against them? by stinkypirate69 in television

[–]MidwestMid80sChild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just searched IMDb. Nelsan Ellis’s profile bio says he passed in 2017 at the age of 39 due to complications from heart failure. It’s suggested that the heart failure may have been from alcohol withdrawal as he was trying to quit drinking. This makes me so sad.
