Why are people asking questions in a question asking forum? Why won’t people just stay in their little SEO bubble and stop trying to have a soupçon of human interaction? I am so annoyed with this trend of reaching out to other people for consensus or understanding! I’d block this community, but I’d rather ask condescending questions instead

What do you call someone who barely graduated medical school?

Doctor

(Good job passing your exam :-D )

Beef, it’s what’s for dinner

You may or may not be aware of composer Aaron Copland. You’ve probably heard his work, or something inspired by it, at some point. In fact, if you remember the 90’s (edit: in the US) you most certainly know one of his works, from the Rodeo suite. Specifically “Hoe-down”. You just associate it with a particular food

Just past the 1 minute mark is where it gets real familiar

You have to go faster to get on top of the snow. Like a speedboat. Especially in a rear wheel drive vehicle. I recommend the Dodge Viper

(/jk, in case it wasn’t obvious)

All jokes aside, there’s a vast difference between driving slower in inclement weather and doing 10 mph in a 40, as the top commenter suggested. Now, was my original comment a bit of a shitpost? A little tongue-in-cheek? Sure!

At the end of the day, we just want to get home safe. But if conditions are bad enough to be doing 1/4 of the speed limit just to be safe? Stay home. People that drive that too slow in the snow are just as dangerous as those that drive too fast. And it’s not just ability, but equipment as well

Too right. It was a gross oversimplification, thank you for building on it

It’s like a record, but your dad doesn’t get as mad when you throw it at your brother

Yo Squid, this is TIL, not No context comics

(Just kidding, keep posting you legend)

If we were neighbors I’d let you borrow my (very well-worn) copy

So i have trouble visualizing things, particularly people, and especially faces. When i watch a show or movie i can register a face to a name, and that in turn let’s me “see” them in my minds eye as I read.

The Expanse was just about perfect for that, i just had to mentally stretch Naomi to 2+meters tall, and things like that

If you haven’t already, I invite you all to read the graphic novel

Here’s the television studio scene as a taste:

…There are of course those who do not want us to speak. I suspect even now, orders are being shouted into telephones, and men with guns will soon be on their way. Why? Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn’t there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression…

The graphic novel has some differences, mostly related to the era it was written in. Do yourself a huge favor and go ahead and read it. Like Watchmen and The Killing Joke, it’s not just the writing, but also the panel layout, colors, and framing.

Until you’ve read “This Vicious Cabaret” in it’s original layout you haven’t really experienced V for Vendetta.

They say that there’s a broken light for every heart on Broadway

They say that life’s a game, then they take the board away

They give you masks and costumes and an outline of the story

Then leave you all to improvise their vicious cabaret…

I do love watching film media first, and then reading the book. When the film version is done well, the book is like DVD extras. When the film is done poorly, the book redeems the story

Enjoy your DVD extras

I’m not out there tailgating people and passing, but I’m sure as hell wishing they’d piss off back home and let those that know how to drive get where they’re going

I don’t care what you think, and I’ll die on this ditch.

HILL! This… damnit

So you’re the dickweed out on the roads doing 10 mph in the snow.

Stay home

Some of us know how to drive in the snow

(Slow on ice is acceptable, but if it’s an ice storm, stay home anyway. No reason to wind up in a ditch because you wanted Twinkies)

Dude, he wasn’t playing an Indian! He clearly says that his ancestors are from Pittsburgh

(is /s necessary here? Eh, I’ll put it in anyway)

Imagine being an animated skeleton.

Imagine that skeleton has a thin layer of nerves over the bones. You know, for touching things

Imagine being allergic to gluten

Imagine your bones itching because your asshole roommate gave you glutenous snacks

That necromancer was a dick btw

Acht, nae fairies! Pictsies! Nae flitty flitty

Hehehe, I like your funny words, magic man
