When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the shitposters."

The post coital ritual of saying "a party sub would be great right about now".

Beefy Mofos

Every so often the timeline hands you the perfect shitpost, worded so well, so smoothly, very obviously delivering a scathing point subtly, that you can't help but read it over and over, trying to hone in on the perfect emphasis and inflection for each word as you hear it in your head.

the entertainment industry has long been myopically focused on appealing to the parts of the country where people live, leaving hundreds or even THOUSANDS of dollars on the table

1001 Island Ranch. The flavor packed salad dressing crossover event we've all been waiting for.

1001 Island Dressing. More Flavor than that lame 1000 Island Dressing.

A self-operating suicide pod that causes injuries? The suicide didn't take? Did people wait to heal before trying again? "Ugh, it didn't kill me. And my back hurts now! They can't even make a working death machine!"

It is logically impossible to both be a supply-chain risk to National Security and not be used by the government. If you're not being used, there is no risk, especially when the basis for the risk is not being able/willing to deliver the product/services. This is part of all vendor assessments.

A couch fucker claiming they're cool could be a secondary character from Revenge of the Nerds.

Why the fuck is slack turning domain names with underscores into hyperlinks? Underscores are not valid in hostnames, despite being valid for DNS RR names.

Everyone is someone else's "supply chain risk".

New DOOM weapon just dropped.

Who is all this being done for? From a certain angle, the AI is doing work that might not actually need to be done.

While they're screaming, I like to whisper through the metal grate of the microwave "You dirty dog. You want me to eat you, don't you? Yeah you do, you'd like that. Oops, the mustard squirted all over you. Oh no! Now you're spicy. Oh it's making you hot, oh so hot, you dirty dirty hot little dog."

We need the State of the Union to have pop-up-video style context and lie correction.

Kind of surprising that jailbreak-prone customer service LLMs are not being used as free token generators.

WTF, dude!

Dude appears on the cover of Nevermind nude as a baby, and we gotta hear about him as an adult. This guy takes a load in an ad and we never hear from him again. Hey load guy, show yourself!

I can't believe they turned that movie into a book.

Flipping channels last night, I ended up on The Sound of Music, the scene where Mary Poppins is chastised by Big Austrian Daddy about the kids staying up late. The kids line up to be disciplined with the ugly curtains behind them very prominently and I said "those are Chekhov's curtains".

It's just average. You asked for typical.

Sometimes you hit the important topics, and sometimes your posts are rambling minutia, incessantly arcane.

A little bit of Bozo in my life A little bit of Krusty by my side A little bit of Pagliacci's all I need A little bit of Pennywise's what I see A little bit of Shaggy 2 Dope in the sun A little bit of Slim Pickens all night long A little bit of Gacy, here I am A little bit of you makes me your man

Timeline Serendipity.

$10 for a 40 year old hardcopy of the Sybil Danning August '83 issue of Playboy from this vending machine. It's less than $6 on eBay. But then you don't get the experience of getting it out of a vending machine. Nothing like slowly inhaling a musty whiff of an 80s Playboy.

All the "are compilers actually deterministic?" rhetoric is merely an attempt to No-True-Scotsman deterministic computation in order to claim that LLM vibe coding output and compiler output are on the same level.

This would be less damning if there was an extremely wide variety of textures, but there's, like, only three: chunky slop, soupy chunks, gruel.

Trying to describe the major points of the movie Weird Science to my teenager, realized that the overarching theme is the same as The Cat in the Hat.

Dads love to say "feels good to finally sit down" when getting home after a six hour car ride.

The Gen X urge to shoot the duck and stand back up.

Ha ha! Your father did his job.

What if you consider the Supreme Court saying your actions are illegal to be an award? You could write the SCOTUS position on a little plaque and mount it on a fake gold trophy. You hate losers, so having an award for being the world's biggest loser would make you a winner. And you'd have a trophy.

There is a huge tax processing apparatus that regularly takes money, holds it for a few months, and then, when receiving paperwork, issues checks to tax payers when they, ahem, overpaid.

Consent is a one way street.

Brits' language use is so weird. You get taxed and pay tax, you don't tax yourself. And why would a boot have its evening ruined by being put on a car? That's its only purpose! Boots dream of being put on a car!

About ¾ the way through this, it dawned on me that this was written in the style of and is roughly the same topic as "The Game" by Neil Strauss. harpers.org/archive/2026...
