Book of Mormon is just a toned down South Park riff turned into a musical so yes

280 "doesn't bother" me either, but that's because my eyes/brain just automatically skips tweets longer than 150/160 chars, I've noticed. It's a terrible change, taking the pace and USP out of twitter entirely. If I want long winded updates I'll check FB, which I'd rather avoid tbh.

comedians aren't important at all

― Terry Micawber (Tom D.), Tuesday, 14 November 2017 22:50 (six years ago) link
well i keep reading "comedians are important, especially in this day and age" as if its a truism.
seems like its a popular narrative in the media, they really "tell it like it is" and "push boundaries". is any evidence that any of this has helped anyone ever?
― AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Tuesday, 14 November 2017 22:53 (six years ago) link

lol i agree with Adam, Norm MacDonald nailed it re: this new perception of comics: "Now people say comedians are like 'modern day philosophers'.... which I think is pretty insulting to... modern day philosophers."

all casual uses of "garbage person," "trash person," "dumpster fire" etc etc are fucking played-out and annoying

Your diet has fuck-all to do with how long you'll live, or even how you feel and/or look while you live. I firmly believe this.

it's becoming accepted that genetics has a greater influence on our make-up than we thought, but i believe it's closer to being the absolute, predictive variable

i can tell you the second part is not true. i have had many different diets in my time (while never dieting) and have fluctuated in weight massively, had worse or better acne, been more or less anxious/tired, slept worse or better.

seriously just like don't even eat
I saw a documentary on that
Yerman had only green tea for five days and was able to stand on one leg for idk a minute longer than he had been previously
This was taken as a major success. I took two things from it:
- it must be highly individual in effect cos if I miss lunch by like ten minutes I can hardly stand on both legs
- who the fuck wants to be a hungry flamingo

if you consume only green tea and beets, you will literally become a flamingo

all books should be around 6x9" and limited to 300 pages maximum. longer books should only be published as a collection of ~6x9" books.
