Bunch of failed suicides, an accident in a school swimming pool, and the time my neighbour accidentally diverted a fuck tonne of carbon monoxide fumes into my house. All the times I’ve been close to death don’t make for particularly interesting reading.

How about a brush with serious injury instead?

1st year of uni. I’m in the labs for the first time and I am hyped to do some microbiological analysis. We were given a bunch of techniques to try and I’d decided to start by doing gram staining and then observing a slide. Most of my class mates had less experience on the microscopes than me and I was feeling great about how quickly I’d calibrated everything. Cocky enough that I hadn’t noticed just how coated in immersion oil my gloves were, until my hand accidentally passed through a Bunsen burner and went up in flames.

Thankfully I’d picked a bench close to the sinks and was able to wrap some damp towels around the hand quickly to try to smother the flame before I got seriously burnt. But the scars on my hand are a reminder to me to be aware of my surroundings in the lab at all times.

Thanks for the sympathy. I haven’t felt that bad for a couple of years by now.

Halloween.

Executives butchered what was gonna be an anthology series because they saw Michael Myers as a marketable villain. So now every film in the series has gotta be the same thing again and again with the same monster doing the same things, ad infinitum.

Now I come to think of it that’s, like, pretty much the entire mainstream of the horror genre isn’t it?

Halloween 3 is (imho) worse than Halloween, but it is better than the other sequels because it does try to do something different.

If you pop into that users history, you’ll see that the interacting they’re talking about is whining at me for a couple of days because I called them a racist.

In case you’re unaware, the “ethnically Russian” people being mentioned in the previous comment aren’t Ukraine as a whole but the citizens of the Donbas who have been the victims of an ongoing genocide by Ukraine since ~2014.

How do you not understand how using a racial slur to insult someone is racist?

look at you, hacker. A pathetic creature of meat and bone. Panting and sweating as you run through my corridors. How can you challenge a perfect, immortal machine?

You gotta ease into eating light bulbs, start with the ones people wrap around Christmas trees and work your way up to the big ones.

pays for the children of non-working people (there’s a shitload of subsidies going into their pockets),

Do children deserve to starve because their parents aren’t employed?

And the children of these people deserve to starve?

Even back then it wasn’t producing most of this stuff but rather recycling memes from Something Awful, it’s stale memes all the way down.

There’s an ice-cream shop in my town that I 100% know is a front because the partner of its owner got done for drugs dealing, sex trafficking, and possession of illegal firearms a couple of years after it opened.

It closed for a few months after the arrests, and has since reopened.
