The Intergalactic House of Pancakes

I am everywhere, anywhere, and nowhere. The Alpha and the Potato. I am the one who dwells in the rectum of time and laughs back at you in the darkness for forgetting how to set the timers on small electronics. I am like five batmans, or shall I say batmanæ? I am that mixed with Chuck Norris and a narwhal; a fact you find strangely stimulating to senses you did not know you had! For I am High Admiral Exxos von Steamboldt of the Intergalactic House of Pancakes! Bringer of darkness when it is already dark out! And facilitator of squirrel dancing!

OK I know the pickleback (shot of whiskey followed by a shot of pickle juice) is a joke drink, but... I actually really enjoyed it

[cowpokeredeemed]

Nah joke drinks are like the steak shot or a cement mixer. The Pickleback is an expert beverage

[mexicain-sans-frontiers-v2]

This is the best joke drink

[uncle-beanbag-mojave]

pickleback is just a version of posca, which is Roman soured wine and vinegar. So it's also a drink that, hell, I remember my grandfather sipping on a time or two. Pickle juice and whiskey. He never called it a pickleback, though. I don't think he ever had a name for it. But I mean, he was doing that in the early 80s when I was around, and so it's not a joke drink. It's pretty good. I drink pickle juice regularly anyways, and I don't mind throwing in some bourbon there.

This is that PG-13 version I keep hearing about

Statists will look you dead in the eye and tell you that "Give me your money or I'll kill you" and "Don't take my money or I'll kill you" are morally the same thing.

"Watching my dad (a GP doctor) watch House is more entertaining than the show"

[zoi-no-miko]

GOD, I wish more doctors were more like this redditor's dad

[sighinastorm]

been ages since I saw a rage comic!

>thread is from 13 years ago

oh.

[tomboiny1]

And this is why my father REFUSED to watch House. After one episode, his response was, it's because of fucking morons like that is why, I, a celebrated surgeon with extremely low complications, has to pay over half a million dollars a year just to open my door to the public

[dittography-direwolf]

Cynical take but I don't think the AI bubble will burst.

Not because of some breakthrough that will make AI genuinely and generally useful or anything like that. Rather because I think when these companies start to fail they'll be propped up by bailouts/buyouts/investor takeovers that will put them under the control of companies that are government fronts (like Palantir).

The bubble will be turned into a dome for the surveillance state to hang more cameras from.

The world is full of shitty, harmful technology that makes our lives markedly worse. But the shittiest people find them useful and thus they become nearly inescapable.

Have I Been Flocked? – Search Flock ALPR Audit Logs

Have police looked up your travel history? Search Flock Safety audit logs for your license plate.

Well? HAVE you?

My plates didn't show. But:

No Searches Found

This does not mean your license plate has never been searched.

This website only displays searches from audit logs we've obtained through public records requests. Our dataset is incomplete because:

While our most recent data is from 7/31/2026, there may be significant historical gaps.

Most agencies don't proactively publish audit logs

Records requests can take months or years to fulfill

Some agencies heavily redact their logs

We may not have requested logs from your local agencies yet

Since December 2025, Flock no longer provides full logs to agencies (More info)
