Bring them back? My bank never got rid of them.

Well that’s genuinely one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a looooooong time

Guinan?

US south. Weed eater or weed whacker, but the second is much less common. It’s also the name of the thing you’re doing. You use the weed eater to go out weed eat the yard

Ooh, I’ll try that one. Tbh, nuke isn’t said for the funny. It’s just what it was called when I was a kid. I never really considered it as a term until I was well into adulthood lol

Generally “nuke it” but occasionally zap make an appearance, microwave as a verb, and sometimes me-crow-wa-vay if I’m feeling extra

I am in no way techy, but from what I gather because the posts are federated they are also stored on the other instances as well, so posts are still visible. In the post announcing the shuttering of .ee they specifically mentioned adding a note on your profile to link to your new profile, so people can find your new profile after that shut down. That implies to me that everything not intentionally scrubbed remains open/visible long after the shut down of the original source.

Again, though, not techy, so I may be vocalizing from my posterior

I don’t have a strong opinion one way or the other. But I do have a fun story!

When my mom was pregnant with my older brother, they had a phone repair guy at the house. She was going through a book of baby names and trying to pick one, while her husband was yelling from the other room that his name would be the same as his (we’ll go with John for the example and privacy).

Husband: (yelling) his name will be John, same as me!

Mama: no! I will not do that! He’d be a junior, I’m not naming my son Junior like some redneck!

Husband: it’s not a redneck name! You don’t have to call him junior, call him john!

Mama: no, it’s trashy! It’s a white trash name and I’m not doing it! I want him to be able to read, not learn how to make moonshine out of an old radiator!*

*That one’s an actual direct quote

Phone repair guy: turns around I need something from the truck.

Mama looks up and notices his name tag. Junior.

Dude left, got in his truck, and drove away. Sent someone else out the next day to fix the phone

Which one?

This is literally how my mom met her first husband

We’re in the south. Near Beaufort/Hilton Head, SC

Chonk looks so much like your puppy, I wonder if they’re related someone down the line

Don’t forget BFE. The sticks are almost always right about halfway between BFE and YouGottaPurdyMouth

She looks SO much like the dog my brother found/adopted last year, named Chonk!

That’s nothin’, can’t beat my signed first draft of the Mahabharata, before it was ever even sent to an editor!

Absolutely

The content of this is weird AF (I get what it’s referencing), but I’d like to see more bardcore comics

I should note: this NOT autobiographical lmao

Someone exploded a beached whale and then you drive home in the rain

Well… Not entirely true. It was a comment not dissimilar to the one at the top of this thread that made me realize we shouldn’t be keeping cats outdoors. We had always had the indoor/outdoor cat and never really thought anything about it. After that comment and doing a little research all of our cats became indoor cats from then on.
