there are people out there in the world who can pull off the wide legged comfy pant look in a business casual manner, but I am not one of those people

[cappurrccino]

I need to go grocery shopping, but also I need to make a menu so I know what groceries to buy, but also. headache :(

[cappurrccino]

a compromise: I will go get the non-food things I need (no thinking required) and hope I don’t also have a headache tomorrow

[ID: A series of gifs of Grace and Carl having a conversation over walkie talkies.

Grace says, "Hey, Carl? Do we have an expense account?"

Carl replies, curtly, "We don't."

Grace scrunches his lips and then sighs into the walkie talkie. Caption: *disappointed molecular biologist sigh*.

Carl raises an eyebrow and continues, "But I do." Grace looks over at him, and he smirks. End ID]

I have no explanation for this other than it's what pops into my head whenever I hear this on the radio

it sucks being someone who gets ideas for really elaborate projects while also being a person who cannot even reliably follow through on very simple projects

here at the sandwich shop, we’ve started to notice some people who are new to sandwiches aren’t used to meat and cheese between two slices of bread. they find this practice strange and confusing. that’s why we’ve decided to cut the bread out all together. from now on, we’ll just serve slices of meat and cheese on a plate.

[junkratsadstuck]

we know that many of our loyal sandwich shop customers have been coming here for years to buy our delicious sandwiches. but some people don’t “get” sandwiches, and we need to try and appeal to them with an easier-to-understand meal format. we will no longer be serving sandwiches. all of our food will just be cold cuts on a paper plate. we love our customers and appreciate your understanding <3

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Yes we know Craig's Cold Cuts down the street does cold cuts better than we do and has millions of customers. That's why we need to switch to cold cuts, to get their customers. We hope that our long-time sandwich loving customer base will be patient in this transition to cold cuts and welcome the certain influx of Craig's Cold Cut customers who will surely come here to enjoy our worse cold cuts with you, our sandwich-deprived customer base, whom we value so much.

the nyan cat bmw that i think actually played the song at all times

the homer simpson car built by uranium workers

this limo whose brakes caught on fire

the dumbest corolla and supra wearing funny hats

I've just seen a TV show review describe teen pregnancy as an "adult theme" and I'm sorry but what are we even doing. how is that. how is that a. like it says in the name of the thing that it's

today I learned that in 2008, the city council of florence overturned dante’s sentence of execution if he returned from exile. yes, dante’s inferno dante, who died in 1321.

but the funniest part of this is not that they were debating the exile of a man who has been dead for over 500 years.

the funniest part is that the vote was 19-5. five people voted to uphold dante’s exile.

[stabethadeathwhisper]

The objectively funniest part of this is actually that the city that holds his remains, Ravenna, refused to give his remains back. This was a ploy from florence to have his remains moved back for the tourist money and its been ongoing for a long time. Florence had a fake tomb built in the city to trick people into visiting, and have tried to force the return of the remains.

His actual caretakers have been very steadfast in keeping them hidden, moved, or generally out of reach to respect his choice in life to never, ever, ever return to florence, even when he was first offered the chance to return. This is at this point an almost millenium long feud that florence is really, really mad about losing

[mysteryteacup]

so basically the five people who wanted to uphold his exile were in the right
