I wonder what so many people on YouTube would think if they knew that one of their most regular viewers is 47. That's not normal, right? That's why I could never meet them in person. I'd spend half the time apologizing for being old. Like, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it, honest. :(

WTF. The electric company in Texas doesn't have a map of outages so people have been using the Whataburger App to figure out who lost power. This is like when Homer was using the Krusty Burger map when they got lost at sea.

At this point, pretty much the only 'reviews' I trust are the opinions of people I either knew personally, or who I generally respect.

I want to go to a LARP where it's historically accurate but to the early 1990s and we don't fight vampires or orcs or anything we just sit around in period-accurate garb drinking Capri-Suns and discussing whose mom can give us a ride to the mall.

Why does the Australian Go-gurt packaging go to such great lengths to convey that the Go-gurts (plural) are both sentient and afraid of death
