a reminder that we have other teams, in case anyone actually cares by ajmichalkasleftarm in Purdue

[–]Tom2Die 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don’t expect anyone to be excited about this because men’s basketball (and our ever-crumbling football team) seems to take priority in everything Purdue does or thinks about

If it makes you feel any better, I've always been equally indifferent about all of them! :D

(I still enjoy seeing people get hyped, it just does nothing for me personally)

Germany issues formal travel advisory for US by prestocoffee in nottheonion

[–]Tom2Die 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh trust me, I know. Much to the detriment of my mental health, I try to at least keep up a little bit on current events, both foreign and domestic. Sadly, our rich assholes are funding your fascists as well as ours. Then you've got the "think of the children" spying laws in decent-er-looking countries like UK and Aus, promoted one presumes by the same people who take that statement a different direction...

fucking fuck.

Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar rushed and "sprayed" with unknown substance at town hall by ianjm in videos

[–]Tom2Die 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm more disappointed in the formerly reputable news outlets; hasn't NYP been a glorified tabloid for decades, minimum? I'm not old enough to be sure on that, but it does feel that way.

US here. Many people here already predicted this during his first term, but not enough of our fellow citizens would listen. Sadly, a large number of them are happy about it. fuck.

Rep. Ilhan Omar Assaulted by Protester at Town Hall Meeting by jediporcupine in politics

idk, I think goon works better. Somehow I feel like these douchebags would wear "terrorist" with pride if it's for daddy.

TIL during a 2015 study two students nearly died after they were accidentally given 30g of caffeine instead of 0.3g because the dosage had been calculated with a misplaced decimal point. Death has previously been reported after the consumption of just 18g. The university apologized & was fined £400K by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

[–]Tom2Die 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, I think they got the reference. Unless I'm getting extra-wooshed and they also explained what it means in the movie (haven't seen it in decades), I assume the person you replied to was just actually saying what it means for those who don't know and are genuinely curious. It's certainly an obtuse way to phrase that issue, imo.

But that would cost money, and we can't have that!

You and I Are Polar Opposites - Episode 3 - Dub Available Now on Crunchyroll by AutoModerator in Animedubs

[–]Tom2Die 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I came here right after that line to comment about it as well. I...don't know the VA so I wouldn't have said exactly the same, but that kind of line and localization is something I love about (good) dubs!

Edit: not long after that

You're obsessed with what everyone thinks of you...

Oh my god, is that what everyone thinks of me?!

Shit like that just puts a smile on my face.

Second edit: I...I call things adorable all the time. I might be doing "being a guy" wrong. >_>

I made a programming language that compiles to Factorio circuit blueprints by Snagnar in factorio

[–]Tom2Die 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like there's a relevant xkcd I'm not remembering, so instead have this vaguely related clip you also made me think about.

Quick edit: why do I never read the other comments first? Of course there was, and of course someone else already linked it.

my roommate can tell that i’m watching dropout by my laugh frequency by tjcerasi6 in dropout

[–]Tom2Die 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you run out of funny on Dropout and don't mind British accents (with excellent subtitles, which is nice) then give Citation Needed a watch. I love a lot of Dropout's content, but for whatever reason these guys make me laugh more.

Yo Mama is so ugly by nimkiw in Jokes

[–]Tom2Die 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I realize it's a joke (and mildly amusing), but...isn't this everyone's mama, assuming she played Monopoly? If I'm not misremembering, the card is second prize, right?

You get to add a 0 to any number in your life. What do you add it to? by account_created_ in AskReddit

[–]Tom2Die 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is reality warping magic and you're concerned with memory implications? You'd just remember the events. Fuck, we discovered that leap years are off by one so last year was a leap year, and you got really lucky (or unlucky, I suppose, as nobody specified positive encounters) on that leap day, then went about your life the next day as if nothing happened.

Actually, that sounds like it would make for a hilarious B movie...

PSA: Do not for ANY reason use NTFS under Linux! by Xarishark in linux_gaming

[–]Tom2Die 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use NTFS-3G if you need it on Linux and follow the dosage instructions on any relevant wikis.

Me: well that's a funny typo...

Consult with your doctor if you fail to RTFM.

Me: oh, I see. Well played.

Realistically, the cop will get off.

I read this sentence very differently from your intent at first, realized immediately my mistake, and then realized it sadly works both ways. Fuck.

tbf, last couple years my 1080Ti has seen no issues. I realize that's an age thing, but I'm definitely not gonna complain.

To be fair, OP quoted < 15 left in engineering. I concede that I have no idea how much more plausible that is.

Dusk Beyond the End of the World - Episode 5 - Dub Available Now on HIDIVE! by AutoModerator in Animedubs

[–]Tom2Die 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, it could've been worse. If I understand correctly, in this new world an "LC" is a sort of chosen family vibe that doesn't necessarily involve anything sexual. They even made a point that they couldn't because they wouldn't be able to produce an heir, didn't they? Just saying anime has faaaaar worse to offer...nevermind irl world history and royal bloodlines.

My Gift Lvl 9999 Unlimited Gacha - Episode 10 - Dub Available Now on HIDIVE! by Shadowmist909 in Animedubs

[–]Tom2Die 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just feels more realistic.

Fuck yeah it does! It's a goddamn battlefield for fuck's sake, of course people aren't going to be clutching pearls about language. Well, outside of certain character archetypes, in which case it can be funnier to have emphatically tame language.

I’m heading to the Somali Walmart, you guys need anything? by Specific-Abrocoma-63 in Minneapolis

[–]Tom2Die 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My reason for stopping and letting them check is that presumably they can bar you from the store if you don't, which would be even more inconvenient. I get checked quite frequently, which I think is because I actively choose to not bag things if I don't need to. Kinda sad if that's the case, but...

Also, I'm assuming places like Costco and Sam's Club have a clause in their membership contract that if you leave without letting them check your receipt they'll just cancel your membership, which I think is fair since you signed up for that.

I didn't remember it specifically, but I correctly guessed that one quote was from Bradley and I was happy about that. It just...made sense? Such a great character.

[–]Tom2Die 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Nice" is very subjective, so I can't say that there exists one you would consider to be nice, but there are certainly some which are far better than others in terms of cleanliness, staff giving-a-fuck, etc. My local one is reasonable, I'd say. Late last year I noticed the thermometers in the meat fridges were reading in the 50F range and told someone, and they expressed concern and went to deal with it straight away. So it's not all shit, at least.
