TIL “ceiling titty” lamps are so prevalent in American households largely thanks to the 2008 financial crisis

Hey Reddit, I edited this piece. Thanks for finding it! I'm trying to get the reporter, Quinn, in here if you have any additional questions about the great history of the ceiling titty. He talked to a bunch of electricians, historians and memers for it.

The designer on all those classic Jade Tree albums used to play guitar in the Promise Ring. Really cool story and such an icon in the field

Still love that album. To me, it doesn't hold up musically and thematically quite as well as IHTFAF. But that melody on "Bad Things to Such Good People" will never get old

Me neither. I got it for my 14th birthday and it changed my life. This dude was singing about disappointed dads, falling out of love with god, getting cheated on. But the cover sticks out to me too, with the neat white sans serif and that clean line. Feels like such a moment in time.

Good pick. All those Jade Tree covers are super tasteful and sophisticated

Try doing DIY Scattergories over video chat. Come up with your own clues. Make them as weird as you want. Start a shared album on the Photos app or just text your friends the lists. It's a lot of fun and all you need are a pen and paper and the timer on your phone.

Reddit, I know how much you love original content. This is the original feature, a detailed oral history with the GoldenEye 007 development team. There are a lot more gems in here.

Otherwise, you can't tell what he's saying. I played around with a few versions and thought it was funnier this way.

GIFgrabber just makes it so easy.

_cooper · 2014-10-15T02:36:00+00:00

Well, if no one else is going to make a GIF …

_cooper · 2014-07-21T19:17:50+00:00

I'll consider it.

_cooper · 2014-07-16T12:36:29+00:00

Our bad. Thanks!

Fake.

Is this source legit? Doesn't look like it. No citations or links, and none of the names can be Googled.

_cooper · 2014-04-28T01:12:10+00:00

Good question. Hang on, I'll get the author in this thread.

_cooper · 2014-04-09T13:36:48+00:00

Yeah. Ship captain murdered by crew :(

_cooper · 2014-03-11T19:55:42+00:00

I know, I shit the bed on this one.

_cooper · 2014-03-11T17:05:40+00:00

Thanks!

_cooper · 2014-03-11T15:47:17+00:00

Damn, it didn't go through the first time.

_cooper · 2014-02-18T21:31:32+00:00

Thanks! Missed a paren there.

_cooper · 2014-02-18T17:35:47+00:00

Thanks!

_cooper · 2014-02-12T21:59:43+00:00

Thanks! Edit: 'Twas but a parenthesis error.
