The following is an account of a dream I had that I woke up from laughing my ass off. I have no idea if its actually funny. And go:
Imagine if you will a convenience store with a stereotypical middle-eastern shopkeep. He has just received the week’s grocery order and is starting to put it away. One of the stacks of items is several large bags of generic cereal too cheap for boxes. These bags can talk and they’re being quite rauccous. One bag speaks with a brooklyn accent and appears to be the one in charge. The shopkeep looks annoyed, but tries his best to ignore the talking cereal as they’re just having a few yuks before they’re ultimately eaten by Poor or frugal people. However when the head cereal turns his comedic ire on the shopkeep “will not stand for this kind of biggotry from cereal!” The cereal then says “What ya gon’ do? Blow us up? ‘Ear dat boys? Dude’s gonna blow up a bag of breakfast!”
…At which point I woke up laughing my ass off

don’t read this if you don’t like opinions
i was thinking about this on the bus ride this morning because i hear this phrase a lot.
just because you’re from a certain area of the country you shouldn’t think you have the right to use that as an excuse for your actions and/or attitude.
this isn’t a completely formed thought in my head anymore because i’ve had a bit of time between its first conception and now.
the reason i always say i’m from cincinnati is because the immediate reactions i get when i say kentucky are usually KFC, you actually wear shoes?, and do you really go to family reunions looking for dates?. i mean come on people. just because i’m from the south doesn’t mean i talk slow.
blaming your actions on the place you’re from is one of the most pathetic scape goats i’ve ever seen and frankly, it really just shows you’re merely a product of your raising. [yes i know people are going to get angry at about this point but this is merely my opinion so don’t get your panties all up in a bunch]. people aren’t born biggots or racists, they’re made that way by the people that raise them to think like that.
For the most part, I agree with this, but I would say that in some cases, social norms are different in different areas of the country/world and that can affect how you act in certain situations. What might be completely acceptable in, say, Ohio might be backwards and out of line in, say, New York. Not that you should use regional norms as an excuse for your behavior, but you might have to let someone’s behavior slide the first time before the know how things work ‘roun’ dees parts.
It’s TMOPMO Tuesday! (Click on image to read full size)
“The Seven Minute Rule” is far and away the most popular TMOPMO we ever made, by far, by far. Who knew people would respond to something universal more than they did to me complaining about how I feel fat. What I like about this comic is it changed my perspective on rejection. I used to feel bad when cute girls told me they had boyfriends. Now I smile and think, “Seven Minute Rule, nice.”
P.S. If I could have written one more panel, it would be about how this rule works both ways, GENTLEMEN.
ALL GIRLS NEED TO LEARN THIS RULE.
my cat in a nutshell.
I WANT A CAT D:
someone gimmie a kitty cat, pleaseeee :Dcarson in a nut shell
I want another kitty :( I miss mine so much, but my dad is allergic so we can’t have any cats in the house. He doesn’t want to put up with another. Sad times.
get a bengal, they’re hypoallergenic.
ask the status guys, a couple of them are allergic to cats and they were totally fine with mine
Yeah, they’re great if you can shell out 900 big boys for them.
I am eating a pancake for lunch
because I am an adult and can make my own decisions.
my life
any time is pancake time.
SO. TRUE.
This Penny Arcade comic really hits home. Am I sacrificing nerd points by playing Fantasy Football? What about drinking Budweiser? I don’t think so. I support Gabe on this one. New club idea: Nerds for Fantasy Sports
