"'I meant,’ said Iplsore bitterly, ‘what is there in this world that makes living worthwhile?’

Death thought about it.

‘CATS,’ he said eventually, ‘CATS ARE NICE’"

For me it’s a toss up between Night Watch and Reaper Man. Probably NW by a Librarian’s hair

How they do rise up

What is this goddamn UP Michigander bullshit? You count to ten with a six and a four, like any civilized human

More like the Vimes Unified Theory of Adulthood

Another gem from that theory:

“That was always the dream, wasn’t it? ‘I wish I’d known then what I know now’? But when you got older you found out that you NOW wasn’t YOU then. You then was a twerp. You then was what you had to be to start out on the rocky road of becoming you now, and one of the rocky patches on that road was being a twerp”

High school was only a few hundred million seconds ago

Reminds me of Sam Vimes seeing his younger self and thinking “Thirty damn years of being hammered on the anvil of life, you poor bastard. You’ve got it all to come”

Hexcuse me, I do not steal memes, thank you very much!

I procure image macros

Arschgeweih is my favorite, my second favorite is from Dungeons and Daddies (Not a BDSM Podcast), where they called them Women’s Empowerment tattoos

This is the type of pedantry that annoys me and yet I admire. Bravo, good fellow, I salute you

I wonder if “regardless and irregardless” was in there 🤔

I too had the same thought. I would say great minds think alike, but I’m dumb as shit

Unfortunately I don’t have a recommendation.

I tried Heliboard but it just didn’t do it for me

Lol, been there

As a past victim of GBoard I will not pile on to OP for their glaring typo. Instead, here’s the quote from the Wikipedia article linked above

Osama Khalid (أسامة خالد), a Saudi Arabian former administrator of the Arabic Wikipedia, was sentenced to five years imprisonment in September 2020 for “swaying public opinion” and “violating public morals” by making edits “critical about the persecution of political activists in the country.” Khalid’s sentence was increased to 32 years in September 2022 as part of a campaign to lengthen the sentences of political detainees, according to Democracy for the Arab World Now and SMEX, a Lebanese non-governmental organization.

Ziyad al-Sofiani (زياد السفياني), also a former administrator of the Arabic Wikipedia, was likewise charged with “swaying public opinion” and “violating public morals” by making edits “critical about the persecution of political activists in the country.” He was sentenced in September 2020 to eight years in prison and was released in March 2025.

I can’t remember if the show did it, but in The Expanse books poly relationships were part of Belter life, especially on smaller ships

I understand hating on Ohio. It’s mostly flat and pretty much flyover country.

On the other hand, Ohio is a perfectly cromulent place to live. It’s an even better place to be from

Tuck in undershirt, button, buckle belt. Do things for a couple hours. Wife tells me my pants are unzipped again

Aaah you’re right. I’m being a pissy shit today. I’ll apologize to OP next time I’m in the portajohn
