What’s the most inexhaustible song you love every single time you hear it without any sign of fatigue?
NOTE: please don’t use this as an opportunity to show off your Cool Taste™. Genuine answers only.
Man, poor PewDiePie. Could you even imagine being associated with an atrocity like this just because some violent extremist misinterpreted your beliefs? It's-- wait-- OK, could all the Muslims please stop raising their hands at once?
Jokes aside, I just want to say that without Twitter and all of you on here, I think my quality of life would be much better and I regularly hate myself for letting any of you reckless strangers make me feel anything.
I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of standing over my son’s crib as he sleeps thinking, “I made this. With an alan wrench and some detailed directions, I made this.”
I don’t understand why everyone is blaming Trump for not bringing Barron to the World Series. Have you all forgotten so quickly that when Obama was President, he didn’t bring Barron either? Let that sink in.
When people in 2016 said “at least there’ll be good art made” I didn’t anticipate it would come in the form of Jim Gaffigan napalming dummies all night.
I used to think it was far-fetched in Hook that Peter forgot so many important moments from his childhood until I became an adult and had to call my mom to see if I’ve ever been on a boat.
Well I watched my first written by episode of American Dad tonight with my parents and their friends and I can say confidently it was a spectacular failure in the 70 year-old demographic.
Dear Elon,
9 days ago access to my work computer was cut but HR cannot confirm I was ever an employee. Please tell them about me Elon, tell them how I shipped all those horses to women who agreed to touch your weird dick. It was a very complicated job, Elon.
It never stops being surreal to see this. New episode out this summer featuring the real Scottie Pippen! So, you know, do what you need to do to prepare.
Even after a 12 hour night shift at the hospital last night, my wife still has the energy to shovel the driveway. God bless her and all our frontliners. Time to make her some breakfast. 🙏🏽
Here’s why I hate the Writers Strike:
I love my job. I work with great people and I write for a show I love and respect. Tomorrow was supposed to be the table read for an episode I wrote and which I was really proud of…
I hate the Writers Strike for selfish reasons but it’s crucial to preserving this industry. So I’ll carry my signs and lay on my horn when I see other people doing the same. We’re all in this together.
I took a week off all social media, used that free time to build a canoe in my garage. It was badly flawed and my uncle drowned. Just a reminder to stay on Twitter if you cherish your uncles.
Several of my very good friends lost their jobs today at Cracked. They are smart, funny people who any site, magazine, newspaper, show would be crazy not to snatch up. Yessir, a company would have to be pretty dense not to recognize their talent.
Me: Do you understand what it means when living things die?
Son: Yes.
Me: So where do you think things go when they die?
Son: Basement.
Me: Our basement?
Son: Yes. My basement.
Me: Coolcoolcool. Ok. Goodnight.
This is obviously wonderful news for
@DOB_INC
and exactly where he belongs, but also heartbreaking news for his friend, Soren, who will stay in Los Angeles trying to remember how pen pals work.
Batman: Alfred, I’m thinking of telling Vicki Vale about the Batcave.
Alfred: I wouldn’t, sir.
Batman: Then Selina Kyle. Or a boy maybe. A boy from the circus.
Alfred: Is this about the giant dime, sir?
Batman: It’s like, what’s the point of having it if I can’t show anyone?!
All little kids like garbage trucks. Something about the size, the greasy noises, the headlong acceptance of filth hits all their bliss points. But my son’s appreciation teeters on the brink of worrisome obsession. (Thread)
Me: *Pushing cup against any ice dispenser*
Ice Dispenser: “Wait, you want what?Ice? Ugh, hang on. OK, you can have two cubes. But that’s it.”
Me: *Pulling cup away*
Ice Dispenser: “And also these other twenty-three take them quickly there’s no time!”
And from the ashes, a mighty phoenix will emerge and the people of the world shall look upon it’s majesty and say, “Oh. That again. I thought we moved on.”
BEST DAD: When his son wanted to dance to "Frozen" songs, this dad put on an Elsa costume and danced with him – because it's important to just "let it go" and be yourself 💙
On our walks, my son likes to hold hands with his left so his right is free to grab the things he loves the most along the way. I hold his hand with my right for the same reason.
It’s exhausting explaining to city people why guns are NECESSARY in places like the mountains where I grew up. YES there are really WOLVES, YES they eat guns and NEED a steady diet of guns or else they start digging up the lead piping under our most treasured historic buildings.
If you’re an adult who still celebrates your birthday, eats kids cereal, orders juice or milk at a restaurant then congratulations, I’m glad you found things that bring you happiness, keep doing what you’re doing.
A thing I don’t think a lot of liberals realize about the right is they genuinely believe democracy died when Obama was elected. They’re not trying to make anything better, they’re only goal is to push democrats into the fire because it feels good.
Which kids? The ones who have survived mass shootings in their schools or the ones who heard the president talk about moving on married women like a bitch?
Shout out to all the youngest siblings out there who “believed” in Santa far too long because they knew the minute they stopped it would fundamentally change Christmas in the family forever.
Sometimes when I see my son just playing in the garden, I look on and think to myself, “I can’t believe I created a life. And now that fucking kid is pulling it out of the ground and smashing it like a total asshole.”
Conservatives announcing they would die to save the economy is a superhero’s fallacy. They don’t get to make that choice. The choice is whether you would let the people around you die to keep your money.
Update: As ofcrs contacted the suspect and OIS occurred, one of the officer’s rounds penetrated a wall that was behind the suspect, beyond that wall was a dressing room. Officers search the dressing room and found a 14 year old female victim who was struck by gunfire.
Jokeless sappiness forthcoming:: We did a Cracked goodbye show tonight orchestrated by
@DOB_INC
and it was incredible to see my friends kill it on stage and to hear how much the site once meant to the audience. It was really magical in a very genuine way.
Years ago a magician messed up a card trick and told me I’d eventually see my card again. I just found a single playing card outside a Ralph’s. It also was not my card but I can appreciate how neat that would have been.
@KEBrightbill
I accidentally cut myself with a secret pocket knife I wasn’t allowed to have when I was five. I dragged a piece of paper through it so I could tell my parents it was a paper cut and provide evidence. I had to get stitches.
When my son doesn’t want to go to bed, he calls me into his room to lie to me about animal facts because he knows I’ll stick around and ask questions. Tonight he told me snails can clap with their eyes.
Here’s some extremely valuable advice for any interaction you have with an artist or creator you are a fan of:
Revealing a deep knowledge of their work = totally fine.
Revealing a deep knowledge of their personal life = horrifying.
Just a periodic reminder that everyone who responds to your creative work with, "How high were you when you made that?!" or "I want whatever you were smoking when you came up with that!" are some of the most boring people you will ever meet.
Peoples lives are being shattered and destroyed by a mere allegation. Some are true and some are false. Some are old and some are new. There is no recovery for someone falsely accused - life and career are gone. Is there no such thing any longer as Due Process?
I do wood work just infrequently enough that any good lessons I learn, I forget by the next project, but I still enjoy it very much. Here is a children’s picnic table. For my childrens.
I don’t believe anyone is exclusively a dog person or cat person because each animal serves its own important function. If you want a loyal friend who trust and loves you implicitly, get a dog. If you want to know where the ghosts in your house are, get a cat.
I’m sorry but burger flippers shouldn’t be earning $15/ hour. They’re just going to blow it on rent instead of using their family money to properly invest in home ownership.
I think it’s absolutely true that because of biology, women and men cannot be friends. I also can’t be friends with any other women’s children because my instinct is to eat them so they don’t compete with my offspring.
In sixth grade, we read our New Year’s resolutions out loud in class and I was so horrified about how honest mine were (having more confidence, being less self critical, etc.) that I changed them at the last moment to shit like, “Touch a penguin.”
