The hypocrisy is just the worst part.

I get the humor of the comic, but I generally think it’s a bad idea to compare two people in order to make a judgement, or even two groups of people. If you actually look at the groups, you’ll almost always find that each community has its strengths and weaknesses. They can actually learn from each other.

I was watching a video of a lady who escaped from North Korea. There was a real food shortage, and people were barely surviving. But she also said that she missed the feeling of community that she felt in her home town. That there was a certain kind of happiness that she felt living in a poor community struggling to get by that she couldn’t replicate.

That was necessary because for that toilet if you were misaligned, things could go very wrong. I don’t know if the newer toilets require the same training.

Astronauts have one of the weirdest jobs. How many prestigious jobs require you to watch a video of your own asshole?

Sounds like somebody’s got a case of the Mondays.

Also, don’t forget that Israel spends a lot of money to influence US elections. Until we have genuine campaign finance reform that disallows this, we’ll have to deal with politicians who treat Israel better than it otherwise needs to be treated.

I generally disagree with the entire plan, but if you’re going to do anything like this, there is a large difference between getting caught with a weapon and not. Maybe even a squirt gun. You do not need to have a weapon to get convicted of robbing a bank.

By these standards, most of my adult relatives are actually children.

But that inevitably leads to the next question: How did he expect to make this joke in 1949? He should have known that Jimi Hendrix hadn’t even started playing guitar by then.

How did he expect that to work, when it doesn’t even have an amp?

Also what’s with the circle around women vs. the triangle around men? Is this some meaningful gender related symbolism that I’m unaware of?

I didn’t get the joke until it was explained, but I can explain this much.

In the fall, for daylight savings, you set the clock one hour back. Basically, you get an extra hour that is inserted into the night.

In leap years, you get an extra day, so the joke is that this extra day is inserted into the night.

The analogy doesn’t account for the spring part of daylight savings.

It seems like a better joke for a child going to school, then. An adult would have already experienced many leap years.

The thing about a cat, it’s got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll’s eyes.

Cats have very expressive colorful eyes. “Lifeless black doll’s eyes,” would be a better description of rabbit eyes.

Spoiler for the movie Gravity:

In Gravity, George Clooney’s character wasn’t her husband and it was he who drifted away. But other than that, it’s a pretty common interpretation that this is the same thing that happened to Sandra Bullock’s character. That she died and the ending on Earth was her already being dead. This comic is basically a summary of the movie.

A while ago, there was a story about a man who made pretty good money from filing lawsuits against companies that ignored his do-not-call requests. If the laws still allow it, it might be a good way to make them stop.

I believe that all he had to do was to keep notes about the businesses and numbers that called him and when he asked them to add him to their do-not-call lists.

Are new instances automatically federated? If not, then it seems like making an instance, then hosting content enough to be federated, would be an awful waste of time and money, as I’d expect an instance like that would be quickly defederated.

There are few theoretically possible technologies as overwhelmingly powerful as time machines. Even an extraordinarily weak time machine, for example, one that could only move you a few minutes back and forth, would be enough to make me insanely wealthy, assuming that it wasn’t cost prohibitive to run.

This one is easy. I would simply do what they tell me to do. After all, since they came back to see me, it’s certainly because the future me sent them back in time.

If it wasn’t me that sent them back in time, then it’s probably a set up, and I would be powerless to resist it.

If they insisted on my ordering them around, I’d have them bring back a copy of their Wikipedia from 50 years in the future, and then I’d try to use the rest of the time to figure out the physics behind time travel, and see if I can’t get plans for a time machine.

Trump actually promised to leave us alone if he lost. He also suggested that he’d move to a foreign country.

“If I lose to [Biden], I don’t know what I’m going to do. I will never speak to you again,” Trump told supporters at a rally in North Carolina.

Trump made similar remarks in 2016 when he rivaled Hillary Clinton for the presidency: “I don’t think I’m going to lose, but if I do, I don’t think you’re ever going to see me again, folks,” Trump said. “I think I’ll go to Turnberry and play golf or something.”

Also, any number whose digits sum to a multiple of 3 is divisible by 3. For 51, 5+1=6, and 6 is a multiple of 3, so 51 can be cleanly divided by 3.
