Looks like he lost weight too. Good for him.

GRAVITY IS A SCAM!! Try pissing upside down. Checkmate, whatever this is.

InputZero ,

Scientist are stupid removed because they’re liars, Sometimes. Gravity is a complete scam! Ask a scientist, any scientist to explain gravity to you. They can’t. Newton thought he could, but then Einstein came and proved he was a liar and a little removed. Einstein thought he could, but then some other scientist proved he was a liar and a removed. So how do we know they’re all not lieing removed. /S

Not often you get to see the clown take off their makeup.

That FTC guy who went “ha ha! I actually hate the Telecom industry and I will restore net neutrality!”. Except he needed only 2 panels.

EmpathicVagrant ,

Do tell us the story - who is this?

ours , (edited )

Tom Wheeler. Sorry, I had to look up the name. He succeeded the professional ass clown that was Ajit Pai, seemed like another Republican Telecom shill coming from the industry to further errode the regulatory agency.

Turns out he had made his start in Telecom and the big players ate up his small company. He seemed to have joined them but he secretly had an ax to grind or at least the public’s best interest in mind.

Top notch guy. Greatest anime betrayals right there.

EmpathicVagrant ,

Yo that’s actually amazing.

Parents: you need to read lots of book in your free time to get smart and go to collage.

~~~ Many years later ~~~

Me: I would like to attend university next year. I will pursue an education in literature to achieve my goal of becoming a published author.

Parents: you will not! There is no success as an author, I will not support you going to to school for such a waste.

GiveMemes ,

You really don’t need a degree in literature to become a published author. That’s like getting a degree in media studies so you can become a youtuber. Yeah, you could do it, and it may give you some advantages, but like… You’re already literate, right? Besides that, taking a class or two on literature or creative writing would give you a lot of the skills you need to get you on your way, which you can easily do while pursuing another degree that ensures greater monetary security or (less easily) at a community college while also working.

I’m not saying that the system that begets this thinking is good, but it is the one we live under.

helpImTrappedOnline , (edited )

I know…college is a joke for a lot of careers.

I made up this situation pointing out the opposing stereotypes of books and authors.

Reads lots of books = smart person who has lots of potential in life.

Writes lots of books = bum who can barley pay rent.

0ops ,

I was going to ignore it but then you did it again and so now I can’t help but be a pedantic ass: it’s spelled “college”. Collage is those art pieces made of scraps of other art/media

helpImTrappedOnline ,

Yeah, the first time was for the joke. Second time must have been umm autocorrect.

I am defiantly not making things up to excuse my poor spelling…what can I say? I made a double oops 0ops.

corsicanguppy ,

You’re technically correct.

That’s the best kind of correct.

abbenm ,

and go to collage.

This is who I want telling me reading is bad

thesporkeffect ,

It’s an extremely large collage, they have to charge admission to afford the maintenance on it.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

English degrees are great if you plan to go into law.

To earn money while hoping you make it as an author because otherwise you’ll either starve or become an office clerk.

Ain’t no doubt about it that liquor is blessed

Life is hard when you don’t know how to use a dollar sign

Bros I’ve used the sign. Finally life will be easy!

Reddfugee42 ,

Small failure so far but keep at it

Tlaloc_Temporal ,

I honestly like this usage better. It matches verbal useage (fourty dollars), and also matches other units (40kg, 40kph, 40cm, and so on).

kabi ,

I agree and always write it like that at first, but it’s also true that for example fifty kilodollars (50k$) just looks better as $50k

…although it might just be silly enough that it works…

GoodEye8 ,

Have you considered that it looks better because you’re used to seeing it that way? It’s the same with Fahrenheit vs Celsius, the one you’ve grown up with make more sense and is more pleasing to the eye.

msage ,

Or 50€

I once saw a cop car moving at the same speed as a shadow cast by a cloud. It looked like the cop was bringing darkness. The metaphor would hit me much harder now; this was in maybe 2000.

I am a German born American who worked for the post office. Still fighting my alcoholic demons but I’ll have something to write about when I’m done.

If I had a kid that asked for Newports, I’d just give em to them. Kinda curious to see where that goes

Probably Shriner’s or St. Jude’s.

Chainweasel ,

I’m pretty sure that’s supposed to be a juice box

HonkTonkWoman ,

That’s how Big Tobacco gets ya…

Donkter ,

Nah. Wife wants coke, a brick of hash, bottle of pills, some meat and some sausage. Kid wants a sandwich and some ciggies.
