Oddness

And thinking that *your* truth ought to be *everyone's* truth is what makes you a zealot.

If I have a physics question, I'll ask a physicist. If I have a biology question, I'll ask a biologist. If I have a money question, I'll ask a businessman, an accountant, or an economist. I probably won't ask social media.

Pick up lines that work on an Ancient Eldritch Terror: I didn’t know chaos until I saw your tentacled black abyss. I’ve never seen a shapeless, malevolent mist as traumatizing as you. I didn’t believe in madness at first sight until I gazed into your seven pulsing eyes.

Okay. There. Now just blocking all of the propaganda mill accounts, and everything's puppies 🐶 and rainbows 🌈. If 80% of what you talk about is politics, thanks, but no thanks. It's nothing personal. I'd be blocking the right-wing goofballs too.

Alright. How do I unsubscribe from all this lowest common denominator political propaganda? It's, on average, half-true, shallow, and worst of all, boring...

There was this albino incident at Taco Bell, where this — you guessed it — albino guy, left a big, steaming, pile in the middle of my work bathroom in Port Saint Lucie, Florida. Know who got to clean it up? True story. Good times. 💩

Being blocked by a ridiculous person:

Want follows? All you've got to do is put a rainbow in your profile pic. Post some cat pics. Talk about Donald Trump. Tell the people what they wanna' hear. Doesn't it hurt? Being that 2-Dimensional, that predictable, that easy to manipulate, photo copy? Where are the unique people at?

That's the tooth, and it's methed up.

Ain't nobody got time for all these excuses. It's not hard. You just need to...

I'm from Missouri. Show me.

There's a reason why I don't watch the news... I never enjoy watching my country self-destruct, regardless of who's running things. I want good things for you knuckle-heads (all of you). Sort it out, people.

Yeah. The hedonic treadmill's a bitch...

Never mind the lava and ice, and the questions that raises... I wanna' know how those people sit down with balls that big. The testicular fortitude of these goobers is unreal. 😅

I made the world's fastest computers for 25 years. One thing I learned is that people have a great tendency to use what they already know how to use rather than learning a way more efficient or different. Only necessity forces them to change.

Sounds like a recipe for hypocrisy...
