why do i hate that artist thing that people keep posting on my facebook so much? why am i such a jerk?

But that's how I make my afternoon iced coffees ;_; why you gotta hate, pp?

I think if they were presented as quirky ideas for a rainy day project clipped from Reader's Digest or Highlights, they'd be fine...the name 'hack' and the meme-generator presentation implies they are mind-blowing ways to cut through life's red tape, stunning left-field solutions from techy firebrands who have figured out how to live and don't want to waste any time doing so. When in reality it's like... so...you put Koolaid in a bottle and shook it up...? Or: You found a good use for all those old-timey wooden ladders you have lying around for...some reason? They're not 'lifehacks,' they're almost unsurpassedly ordinary.

There's an implied YOU'RE WELCOME at the end of every one of these things, like someone accepting your apology when you have offered none.

why you gotta hate, pp?

I told you, I can't put it into words. Pouring coffee into an ice tray isn't going to enhance your life in any way.

This is the recent one that made me really lose my shit. But you know, when you lose your shit over something that someone has done, that's your fault. #lifehack

the worst ones are the "creative" ones, the ladder-turned-shelf ones, which by virtue of being "lifehacks" are viral and have seen by everyone on the internet, so everyone who sees your twee as fuck creativity will know exactly where it came from

dying at the picture pplains posted.

the legend is amazing

Food kit a. cinnamon candies. travel food kit

''Oops, damn, won't close...what is it? One too many pretzels? Fuck, crushed 'em again. I bet I can fit in one more Cheerio. Where are those tweezers...'' (meanwhile people who were actually traveling have long since given up and left)

also lol @ emily's carl sagan one. Is someone in your feed on a Carl Sagan listserv or something? I feel like you posted a similarly rainbow-colored one, with Haunting Thoughtful Face, way back at the beginning.

That Carl Sagan fellow is all bollocks. I mean, you can see right through him.

Plz somebody photoshop dreads onto Don Cheadle's head for future posts

They're not 'lifehacks,' they're almost unsurpassedly ordinary.

^seriously. A lifehack would be, like, how do I make money to live on without working or something.

Casino, I think I sent the Sagan one to you in a private message, but yeah, I have a lot of fucking lovers of science on my fb. Also loving that this thread is enough of a priority for you to check from China!

Re: Sagan picture, I wd argue that the reduction of the phenomena of the sunset to 'romance' is the real harm

you know what else would work for all that food, a plastic bag, but then the different colors of food might touch each other

She is slightly more resourceful than the ''10 Rules for Dating my Daughter'' dude.

terrifying

When people share that, are they sharing because it's a funny caricature of what they think ... or because they actually think it?

Either way, fucking hell

Huh. My own mothers rules would go something like:

1. OMGThankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou

hahah

lol

lol mine would be "Are you sure?"

Unwritten rule: I own my son the way other people own a dog, and I have no intention of ever changing that.

11, You never her

My rules for dating my imaginary daughter:
no playing your "slow jamz mix" on first date
if you text your penis to her that photo WILL go on a freeway billboard
if you chat me and my husband up like a car salesman, she will NEVER, EVER date you because you are a secret creep
if yr skinny jeans are falling down around your ass when you enter my home I will pants you

emilys, no, i'm sure there was another! Around the time of one about Descartes maybe? No way will i try to load this whole thread on my phone thru hostel internet to check tho.

and yes, high priority

that is the least Blake-y sounding quote those morons could possibly have made up

I looked at that & began to run up image of Blake's Newton with Drake inspirational quote attached, but there is no point to parody or jokes in this thread, Facebook sincerity will always outpace you
