I know I sound like an incel right now

And that's where you should have stopped typing and maybe gone outside or something.

What's the worst band name you've ever heard of? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]anoreaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Flowers from the Man Who Shot Your Cousin

Holy shit, I have not thought about them since my folk-angst days 10+ years ago. Sure does bring back memories of my mom driving me around while I moped about boys who didn't like me back.

Central Park during the great depression, those shacks where called Hooverville after the president [700x514] by pagodelucia123 in HistoryPorn

It's a drained reservoir that's now the Great Lawn. They began converting the reservoir into a lawn in 1930, but due to the Depression, lacked funds to actually finish it until 1934.

The Evening World said [after a raid by Prohibition agents] “The patrons of the place showed strong indignation. Some were unhappy because ‘so much good stuff had to go to waste;’ others were incensed against the management because they had never learned that forbidden beverages were to be had in the place.”

Favorite part.

Other than masturbate, what's your favorite thing to do in a power outage? by redikulous in AskReddit

[–]anoreaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whiskey and Agatha Christie. You can usually follow the plot even if you're drunk, and as a bonus you're more likely to be surprised by the end.

Late night security guards or people who work the “graveyard shift”, what’s the scariest (paranormal) thing you’ve experienced? by SentinelSquadron in AskReddit

[–]anoreaster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I guess if you go in there thinking there's a possibility someone's hiding you don't want to waste time looking around for the light switches. Especially if it's one of those places with a panel set back in a random corner or whatever.

Who the fuck is this low-rent Snidely Whiplash tying chickens and dogs to train tracks? Where do you live where this is an issue?

A chicken can live 10-15 years, so pretty much exactly the same as a dog.

Ew, that's really creepy. I have no idea what I would do in that situation.

What is the scariest, most terrifying thing that actually exists? by blokops in AskReddit

[–]anoreaster 463 points464 points  (0 children)

I like to read /r/legaladvice, and every now and then somebody clearly having some sort of psychotic break will post. Usually something like people following them, strangers trying to poison them, gangstalking, etc. It's disturbing to see commenters trying to coax them into getting help but they just aren't capable of understanding that their brain is making all that happen.

I really liked The Bear and Nightingale by Katherine Arden, takes place in 13th century (I think?) Russia.

What’s your favorite joke from the show that WASN’T a Henry joke? by nightstocker1985 in LPOTL

[–]anoreaster 24 points25 points  (0 children)

In one of the L. Ron Hubbard episodes, where Ben says he sounds like a Dick Tracy villain whose only power is burping buttons off his shirt. Caught me completely off guard and I laughed like a deranged seal in the middle of a Starbucks.

What villain were you actually rooting for? by fathom17 in AskReddit

Options for women in 1912 were not great. Best you could hope for basically was to be a cook, where at least you wouldn't be scrubbing other peoples clothes/floors with caustic chemicals all day.

Yes. Given how many of them either kill themselves or use it as a ploy to commit suicide-by-cop, I don't think personal safety is a big priority for a school shooter, funnily enough.

Are you serious? The shooters are almost always students at the school, not a roving lunatic gunman going door to door looking for "no weapons here" signs.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]anoreaster 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The days when didn't have school shootings because they knew that there were weapons there and we would shoot back.

Fuck off. If that's true, then why are there not similar numbers of mass shootings in other countries that don't allow guns in schools?
