when you finally put together all 500 pieces in the molly guy jigsaw puzzle, you get a picture of My Little Pony

xp call your mom _every day_? my mom would wonder wtf is going on

Give a Clif Bar to a homeless person. Drink water. Have an orgasm.

Contrary to what your mid-20s, intoxicated, star-fucking, smeary-eyelinered self might think, the warm, worn body you have now is beautiful. It has housed and fed two humans who like to lie on your lap and legs like furniture.

"the body you have now has legs like furniture"

my legs do like furniture, I suppose

pretty girls house trap furniture

I don't even know what to make of this veteran-related post:

I don't even know what to make of this veteran-related post:

Near as I can make out, it is playing on the idea that vets make 'normal girls' freeze up with fear, because all vets are screwed up head cases who are likely to scream with night terrors or start punching holes in sheetrock walls. ha-ha.

vets are supposed to see this and think "it's funny because it's true."

i was thinking maybe it's trying to play on the vet's fears about isolation. that they finally open up to someone about what happened and the other person kind of gives an empty supportive response but doesn't really understand, maybe it's impossible for them to understand, etc

of course, it would be kind of weird for the vet to be opening about these things while also hitting on someone, so it is kind of weird

it's weird ok

I think it said 'hitting on', not 'opening up to'.

I think the main thing is vets aren't like the other girls

Is Pop Smoke a description of an IED going off under a humvee

nah, just means "leave"

"PLEASE DATE ME"

There are plenty more.

One of those good old-fashioned back-breaking jobs that made men old before age 50, that we all miss terribly because we never had to do it ourselves.

what are bin men like now? non-white?

Perhaps (being charitable here) most bins are now the kind that get hoisted/flipped by hydraulic thingies?

that looks worryingly like my street

I saw a similar macro shared by an old schoolfriend which was complaining that back int' olden days binmen would come into your garden for you and drag the bin out and empty it and replace it and they weren't too lazy and now its terrible that we have to put our own bins on the street the night before. I pointed out that if someone was to start dragging six bins through my close at 8am on my day off and wake me up I would be a lot more angry than the minor unnoticable inconvenience of taking my turn to put the bins out.

Fucking serfs

Other than the implication that somehow respectful people are rare gems from another era for which one feels nostalgia, making young people of the present era, by implication, disrespectful oafs, I can't see much to object to in any of the specific actions mentioned.

"I hate purity, I hate goodness... I don't want virtue to exist anywhere"

It's not the actions, it's the self-satisfied tone.

is it just me or is there an odd disconnect between the bottom two rows and the more 50 Shades of Grey type pictures on the top row

i take it this British Nostalgic Bible site a parody then?

following the British Nostalgic Bible, it will help me assimilate

having looked again, the picture on the left of the centre column looks like it comes from some sort of adult film as well?

I looked at the page... It's full of really badly degraded watermarked images of old ladies sweeping their doorsteps and memes that say things like 'Share if you remember the name of your rag and bone man'

It's mostly too banal (share if you're hoping for a white christmas!) to be satire imo.

yeah it's not satire, but some of it is very very close. I want to trump it with one that clearly nostalgises things that happened in pre-WWI Britain, and once that's become popular, make another page for late-Victorian Britain etc etc until I'm doing 'Share if you remember powdered wigs' or whatever

DO IT

"only carthaginians will get this..."

share if you remember when all it took to keep your country safe was the ritualistic sacrifice of newborn children at the temple of baphomet!!

I'm quitting facebook for new years. It's been a long time coming, but mainly because of this guy.

Urrrrrrrrgh my head hurts.

my new pet peeve is people who are posting political infographics they found on twittter and thinking they're sourced from PBS because twitter's image host is "pbs.twimg.com"
