Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So, someone put together a webpage that shows homophobic language being used on twitter.

You can see mentions "today" and "last week", etc. Granted it just hits search terms so context isn't provided.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I love the Mattress xkcd, because I deal with this problem every. single. night.

Yeah, I really like the infographic ones he's done. Not funny, but amazing. Someone on the Internet is wrong is totally my favorite though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Someone is wrong on the internet is just...right. It's not funny, per se, and I can barely even call it clever because that's not the angle--instead, it's hella perceptive and succinct as all get out, though, and it's a fuck of a shortcut and I'm glad it's now common (righteous) lexicon.

Apparently the opener of "You know, I've heard some very good things about your technical expertise here at [ita !'s workplace] in the IT department" doesn't automatically make people IIS subject matter experts. I'm somewhat disappointed in that failure.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

FUCK YEAH!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

So now you can apply for your job? Hooray? Relatively speaking, hooray, I guess. This whole thing has been such a farcical nightmare.

Good...that was some *bull*shit, Consuela.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

No love for "Sudo get me a sandwich"? That's the one I find myself quoting most often.

I have no one to quote it at--but that is the only one I wear. I think it's when I really truly noticed xkcd as something I needed to go back to and read regularly.
