Big beefy boi

I wondered if the 1/3 replica at King’s Island in Ohio would make the list, and it did!

When I was a kid it was the closest amusement park to where I lived, about 45 minutes away. When I was old enough to drive four of us would pool our money for a family pass, which paid for itself in two visits. We went every week of summer break, every summer for three years. I should say gas was less than $1/gallon then.

Once we graduated we all got too busy to go that often, but it was some fun times while it lasted.

The park would close at 11:00, and at 10:30 they’d set of fireworks from the top of the “Eiffel” tower. We all swore they would “speed up” the rides after dark. Dunno if they actually did, but we were convinced lol. Of course we also knew with absolute certainty that if you swallowed gum it stayed in your guts for seven years, and that Marilyn Manson had a rib removed so that he could fellate himself. Man we were dumb

The one I learned at recess was

This land ain’t your land, this land is my land
You better go back to Ellis Island
If you don’t get off I’ll blow your head off
This land was made for me not you

Have you ever looked at a word and the longer you look at it the more misspelled it seems? Like, that can’t be the correct spelling of “suspicions”, right? Also, unsupported belief was what I was going for. In the vein of “I Googled my symptoms and I suspect I have cancer”

Very interesting. Also the following is not directed at you OP, it’s just a general shitpost…

InB4 a bunch of people comment that they think they have visual agnosia because they don’t recognize X. In fact, they don’t recognize certain objects because they have the life experience of a baby prawn and are hoping they are special and different from everyone else in some definable way.

But not you, dear reader. You are special, and your suspicions are valid and correct (agathawink.gif)

Oh I like them, I just think the staging and setting are more interesting than the story lol

Any recent live action movie by Wes Anderson?

I think the last time I was genuinely engaged with the plot of a WA movie was… maybe The Grand Budapest Hotel, it’s been a while. Moonrise Kingdom for sure was an engaging plot

I’m glad you posted your original comment. I tend to be pretty tongue-in-cheek, both online and IRL. Sorry if it comes off as abrasive, in my mind it’s all in good fun. Love you and hope you have a fantastic day <3

This is a very good point. In rebuttal

A. I did say “a suitable habitat”

B. I was very clearly shitposting

You’ve considered a capitalist solution, but have you considered

Restorative justice: the spider is a trespasser, but will likely not find enough prey to survive. Capture the spider and relocate it to a suitable habitat where it can thrive. Check on it occasionally to ensure it is doing well

Libertarian anarchism: leave it be. It will die, survive, or thrive on its own terms

Authoritarianism: tell the spider if it doesn’t remove itself it will be arrested, start ordering it to get on the ground, fire 13 rounds at it, preferably missing all shots but hitting a nearby toddler. Institute martial law against the “foreign threat”, citing the recent death of a toddler

Liar!

Clearly you just smeared some store bought peanut butter on the blender for clout

(Seriously tho, it looks delicious)

Real question. How does one flip small stuff during baking? Your instructions say to flip the peanuts. Lots of baked things are supposed to be flipped halfway through. Flipping peanuts or sweet potato fries is random and haphazard at best. Do you have any techniques that are fast and thorough?

I’m seeing the parent of this comment thread as jdr@lemmy.ml.

I’m on sync, so maybe it’s an app issue? Or maybe you’re blocking .ml and can only see the OP that jdr replied to? Dunno.

Really!? But I know about VPNs

Goddamn Gosh-diddly this is gold

This right here is exactly why I haven’t blocked .ml

Yes the mods over there can be twats, and yes there are militant shitbirds with asinine opinions (let’s be honest, every instance has them). And then you get a post like this…

She looks like Zooey Doofenshmirtz, but without bangs and eyes that don’t pierce your soul and weight your heart against a feather

I’m so glad I don’t pay for films he’s in

I feel like I saw an interview recently where he says he’s terrible at pitching and describing movies. If I didn’t dream that, this quote certainly reinforces that opinion

99% of the time I’m just there from ddg trying to find a solution for a problem
