My parents visited a T-shirt factory and all I got was this lousy T-shirt.

I'm going to invite Ms. Amos, Mr. Belleci, and Ms. Spelling over to my place. I need to take inventory.

I thought about making a joke like "and now the US will join them" but it's too horrible.

No insurance ad has ever topped Progressive's "It's the Dog Park," IMHO.

Here's your tragic hero in 2024 posting a video claiming that Haitians in Springfield are eating pets. Did your reporter make any effort at all to do background research? www.facebook.com/100000851504...?

It's always "difficult" for employees, never for executives.

I first encountered it in Syracuse, New York, though it was a place with a surfer vibe.

I'd call it eleven. Even when he wasn't president, we still had to hear from him, which was worse.

Can we please stop the pop on/pop off subtitle/caption style? Give people a moment to read them, especially if the joke is that the person is saying something other than what they're thinking. Accessibility isn't supposed to be a stylistic thing, it's supposed to actually make media accessible.

I bought a huge bag of chicharrones, a huge bag of tortilla chips, some queso fresco and some salsa verde. Now I need to figure out how to make something resembling actual meals out of those and the contents of my fridge instead of just snacking on them for several days.

Does the mall count? I was thinking about going to the Sherman Oaks Fashion Square because you mentioned Sunkist fruit gems and the mall is across the street from the old Sunkist headquarters.

"The Most Famous Bisexual By Far" is the centerpiece song of the musical that someone will write about Mara.

We're all in a constant state of the former. Sometimes experiencing the latter is a nice change of pace, IMHO.

I don't have kids and if I did, I have no idea how I could tell them "Work hard and be a good person and you'll be successful" when there are so many awful people getting rich and running/ruining our lives.

In the winter of 2020, I got an email from my electrical utility saying that I'd been using a lot more electricity during the past few months. Gee, I wonder what might have been the reason for that?

Pfft. At Syracuse, there was a guy who cooked the skull of a former mayor of the city.

Could this be an opportunity for personal care products that make you appear sweaty and unclean? Maybe a smelly, dirty sweatshirt that has a hidden liner that keeps you from actually getting dirty but repels others.

I worry about clicking like and then looking at the profile and finding something awful in their posts or other comments. Why must horrible people like the same cultural references and puns that I do, thus lulling me into a feeling of connection that will prove to be false?

True. I admittedly have played with it out of curiosity and it interprets the same prompt sometimes in wildly different ways.

If they're lazy enough to use generative AI, they're too lazy to try regenerating the images with instructions to make the pictures more realistic.
