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

that's a pink shoe with white stripes but I have notably blah color perception

Haha, I know people were completely done with this the first time around, but I find this color perception stuff interesting. It looks grey with teal to me, and i just can't see it as pink at all.

It’s just a bad photo of a shoe

reminds me of this dumb project some coworkers are trying to fix: a stationary camera takes pictures of a bunch of samples that have an image that's basically a QR code on the top. at some point, the image recognition got worse, so they're trying to fix it up by filtering/rotating/etc

every smartass is like "yeah, but my phone can scan those easily!" and you have to realize when scanning that kind of thing with a phone, you're moving a camera that's autofocusing around until it gets to a position where it gets it. you're doing the rotating/panning manually

so from a stationary image with blown-out (or in this case, what looks like florescent) lighting, some people will extrapolate based on light, some will pick up the color as captured, and there's just enough variation in color perception that you get another layer of vagueness on top

the only way to tell for sure is to mail me the shoe

in short, silby otm

grey and mint green

Get ready for this one folks.

Ready?

Okay:

lmao i wasn’t ready

"we mate on the dating site"

My mind went instantly to the family members who would circulate that and find it a scream

the family members who would circulate that are all over 50, right?

I’m really disappointed that “Viber” is not a teledildonics app

so strange to imagine what real life situation leads to someone identifying with that and reposting it. i'm assuming it comes down to a kid having met someone online, and maybe they also, unrelatedly, use twitter. the parents are obviously way more likely to spend their days on ebay.

I feel like it’s from the forced, fake perspective of a parent created by a kid who feels their habits are judged

but they aren’t really like that at all

it’s created by a young man who yearns for an arranged marriage his parents are not competent enough to arrange, but wishes he could find love in a marketplace

Aimless, yes very much so, but that will also apply to me in two years' time

But the age threshold for finding that hilarious will rise inexorably, ever out of reach beyond your fingertips, until you are elderly enough to find telemarketing calls a refreshing change in your daily routine.

"Hey dad, fuck off and die, hope you enjoy the nursing home I'll be dumping you in as soon as possible."

The dad looks down on the daughter's internet use but still, we notice, texts

Like kissing a hand. And putting a horse's head in someone's bed.

is there anything stupider and more classless than decrying the decline of intelligence and class?

i can't place exactly why but that stupid fucking meme has enraged me like few others have ever managed

it's probably a combo of the infuriating vagueness of 'so many things' with the suggestion that enforced fealty to unelected power via intimidation, violence and fear is somehow compatible with morals, respect and intelligence

don corleone is a fucking monster u idiots

latecapitalismsiren.wav

he was always respectful to the guys he had wacked

my main trigger is imagining the kind of clueless dipshit approvingly sharing these tho

like it's not some scion of an ancient bloodline supping on his port and tsk-ing to himself as laments the tempura and the morays

the content of the image and the content of the text are so flagrantly at odds with each other that i'd almost think it was a joke were it not for, y'know, having a facebook account and regularly seeing shit like this shared by my er less-contemplative acquaintances

it's only like when fedoraboys approvingly share photos of Al Capone and stuff

'he putsh one of yoursh in the hospital, you put one of hish on your newsh feed'

my main trigger is imagining the kind of clueless dipshit approvingly sharing these tho

Mid-forties. Never left parents' home and has trouble staying at jobs for any period of time but has opinions about government assistance programs and whatever else comes down the pike from Fox News. Fortunately they quit sharing political stuff a while back for the most part. At the same time a sweet and fun person who I hate to drag too much, but not exactly the most self-aware.

Just want to point out that Don Corleone was very strictly against moving into the narcotics business. If that's not a clear sign of morality, respect, and intelligence, I don't know what is.

it's a v unamerican shirking of entrepreneurial duty imo, shame on him for not moving with the demands of the market

ultimately happy for black people to be peddled to iirc

this is my favorite kind of political meme

My friend's widower dad posts these to facebook all day and gets like 0-3 likes for each one. It's pretty sad.

i think i was imagining more the m'lady massive than older people where i'd expect a higher percentage of yearning for a gentler, more bigoted past

Men are stupid babies lol lol lol

the weirdly precise "16 accidents," gah

I have seen plenty of freaky shit but never crashed because of it

drunk driving: hilarious

gonna go ahead and hazard a guess that this staged photo session of a stationary vehicle concluded with everybody opening some beers and calling it a day and that the actual number of accidents caused on "road I-35" was zero

the internet: where fantasy meets electrons and make beautiful love together

I-35 is real
I have my doubts about that story

yes but who says "road I-35"

the only segment of I-35 that'd have moose would be near Duluth, so I'm assuming this is some Duluth regionalism

:)

maybe that's your answer: moose say "road I-35"

Relatedly, the usage of "the" before a highway or whatever is a classic tell for TV or film set on the East Coast but written and made on the West Coast. We don't say "the 95."

"road" I-35 is weird

also mh good point, also the fact they are saying I-35 instead of 35W or 35E means it's either north or south of the metro and there ain't much for moose in my homeland
