man cannot live on memes and news alone. there is a void here. news stories breed reasoned discussion, generally filled with stringent, on topic remarks. memes breed tepid remarks, a step above twitter blue check replies, but little worth reading....
If you put mustard on a cat’s arse, it’ll start to burn, so the cat will lick it off, making the cat’s mouth burn so then it’ll feel burny at both ends and start spinning in circles, creating infinite power
Did anyone else get the line “Born white in the world’s richest countree-ee” in their heads there, or is that a way too obscure Jello Biafra reference?
Waste disposal is a weirdly American thing. That’s why when you go on holiday and chuck your food down the drain like a special-needs kid discovering toilet roll for the first time, you have to phone people like me to fix it for you
I asked a builder why this was, and he said that the lateral forces created by a slightly tilted window has just enough force to rip the entire side of a house clean off due to houses having the structural integrity of wet newspaper, which is the preferred construction method in the States

due to houses having the structural integrity of wet newspaper,
This line is pretty much only there as a setup to the next line. Houses, I’m sorry to inform you, do not have the structural integrity of wet newspaper. That would be as dangerous as it is impractical
which is the preferred construction method in the States
This bit, unsurprisingly, isn’t exactly true either
I hope, now that I’ve broken the comment into its constituant parts, that you’re rolling on the floor, clutching your aching ribs and laughing tears of joy.
Each time I try AMD graphics, something is fucked for me. Back with fglrx, fglrx just sucked, so I used Nvidia. Then I had an AMD right around when they finally had opensource drivers, but it was still buggy as hell. So I went with Nvidia again (first a GTX 790, then a GTX 1060). In the meantime I had a new work notebook where I...
