I thought Josepha was already making that joke

It's hard to imagine his war against woke will resonate nationwide. All of my friends think he is Scott Walker 2.0 but who knows

fully support all action to erase bad Scott Walker from existence and replace with good Scott Walker.

that the lift part of a swivel chair base regulates the height of the chair with a pressurised cylinder of gas. I never thought about how they worked before, but at least now I know why my old knackered chair doesn't rise any more.

See, you manually raise it to the top, sit and commence work. It should very slowly descend through your work. When you reach the bottom, you have completed one seat-session of work. It’s like the worst xkcd comic ever.

"It should very slowly descend through your work"

if it goes down before you have a completed a work session then you aren't farting hard enough

"they just grifted apart" lmao unreal

By "socially impenetrable" I mean, is there a female musician in her late 50s doing songs about particles and ancient kingdoms or whatever who can attract a crowd as large as TMBG?

Faith Hill is 56 and she DOES pack arenas with her stories of love and centrifugal motion.

This is more of a controversial ILM opinion, but I'm really sick of posters who think I want to read Christgau's opinion on literally anything. Post Christgau quotes in the Christgau thread. We don't need to hear it otherwise.

Budo proves Groucho’s First Axiom. The club ain’t having it either. C-

low-hanging fruit perhaps, but i loled

i still don't understand if i'm being told i shouldn't post here anymore, but it is clever i guess

I thought the C- was being awarded to Christgau in that exchange?

xp i didn't take it that way budo! posted it here just because it was a satisfyingly good imitation, but yes i agree with halfway that the intended meaning is that christgau ain't here, and we don't want him

The smug satisfaction of my first-ever excelsior shout-out tarnished by the spectre of budo taking offence — none meant! I was posting in character for lulz only. Don’t go changin’

yeah I just took it as a hilarious riff on Christgau's style. I'm a budo fan!

haha, ok! i see now how Lavator's interpretation makes sense

happy to assist here, hd

I felt bad for Christgau, though

Good post budo

I Killed Christgau with My Big Flag Post

hahaha

"pissin a shit" as they say in the uk

omg mattkkkk made me spit out my drink

tiny payback for your comedic riches Neando

Just because:

"Daddy's gone mad, hasn't he?" Dudley asked Aunt Petunia dully
"I'll be in my room, making no noise and pretending I'm not there," said Harry dully.
"How many monsters d'you think this place can hold?" Ron asked dully.
Dully, Harry turned it over
"Madam Pomfrey fixed him best she could," said Hagrid dully
“Balderdash,” said Harry dully.
“Great,” said Harry dully
Well, it might be easier to get past a dragon if he were a ferret, Harry thought dully
“Quidditch,” he said dully
“Fairy lights” he said dully
“I asked her to go with me just now,” Harry said dully
“Dunno,” Harry said dully
“No,” said Sirius dully
“I’ve told you,” Harry repeated dully
They bowed clumsily, muttering dully
And all the while, his scar burned dully
There you go, Sirius, Harry though dully
“Fine” said Harry dully
Some of them had broken windows, glimmering dully
Harry wondered dully
“Well I tried,” she said dully
“Well,” said Angelina dully
“Yeah, I suppose you’d better,” said Harry dully.
They glimmered dully
An ornate letter S, inlaid with many small green stones, glinted dully

(All but the last are from the first five books, maybe one bit of editing advice finally got through)

seeing some clips from this and it looks like Chappelle is straight up a Jeff Dunham-level comedian now. obviously there's no one like this here but do those who actually love the anti-trans shit actually think this shit is funny? it's like the same variations of the One Joke that boomers have been making for decades now
