Never had a real Vietnamese curry, just imitations of Thai curries from Vietnamese shops. My friend’s family promised to make it for me but it’s been 20 years and I think he might be dead or on a meth-fueled tour of every truck stop bathroom on the east coast. Anyway, how’s it compare?
But don’t windmills kill birds and cause cancer and make the view from my golf course unsightly? Thanks, Obama
Damn, only one I was excited about. Guess I’ll have to get my campy vampire action sequences elsewhere
Reindeer, polar bears, and arctic foxes really need to step up their engineering game.
“Mrs Krinkle, why is Mrs Cigarette out?”
“There was an unfortunate accident in her class involving hydrochloric acid, so she was sent home for the week.”
“…But doesn’t she teach band?”
For real. Well, minor amendment. The only people surprised by this are the folks who find no connection between extensive firearm sales and firearm deaths.
Exactly. Taking in the expansive view before you is nice, but the giants we stand upon, stable societies and technological advancements, are worth a glance or two.
What an absolutely monumental achievement! People throw parties for the dumbest garbage- Columbus Day, new years, pagan plagiarism day (Christmas). This deserves celebration. Can we get an Eradicated Malaria Day?
Wild dogs and angry magpies are the only ones that usually seemed to be a consequence of misfortune, rather than fucking around and finding out. YouTube removes most that involve actual bloodshed so “animal attack hiking” offers plenty to chew on.
Funny, I ended up going down a similar rabbit hole with minor animal attacks on hikers. I imagine there’s a mental interstice between the two, but animal attacks/stalking certainly left them less enthusiastic for the remainder of their vids.
This is definitely a concern, but so long as this data isn’t pooled, we’re mostly fine. Credit card fraud is usually an hour of frustration per person. However, stalking certainly received a fresh new method.
No, I don’t like vanns. Not the automobile or the shoe

Looking for a specific channel on YouTube
Long shot but I hope someone might know. The channel hosts parodies of superheroes and superhero tropes through the medium of motion comics and is characterized by its dry humor and sarcasm, reminiscent of the channel “How it Should Have Ended.” Videos often involved a competent woman parody of Superman acting alongside their equivalent of the justice league.
The channel, despite not broadly advertising this fact, hosts exclusively English translations of their main channel’s videos. (Original channel may be in Portuguese, Spanish, another language common in south America?) While the English translation channel might have stopped posting ~7 years ago, the main channel would have continued posting content for a year or more.
Really, I’m looking for a specific video wherein a spy (possibly a parody of black widow but I can’t recall) is looking to complete their mission while their operator ceaselessly suggests additional members for their team, lampshading the “spy by accident” genre with ever more absurd assertions and justifications for the spy to reject. It takes place in a fancy dining room setting. One suggestion is a chimpanzee and another is a waiter, referencing Jackie Chan in Tuxedo. It was a surprisingly complete deconstruction and I’d love to reference it.
The interior of your house is hot, the exterior cool. What would the most efficient orientation be for a box fan? Pushing hot air out of a window or pulling cool air in through it? (Solved)*
Secondarily, should the fan be outside or inside the window?
Asking for a friend. (Me, help. I can’t remember physics, it’s too goddamn hot)
Edit: I’ve opened all the windows and set up a fan a short distance from the window pointing out and it’s reduced the temperature to near-tolerable levels. Unfortunately, venting through the attic was a no-go but moving things aside might make it an option next time. Thank you all, I appreciate the help!
A dog’s life
[panel 1: A small, bespectacled man sitting at a table takes a bite of pancake. Their glass is filled with golden liquid, matching the color of the dog staring over the edge of their table. Their eyes lock.]
[panel 2: the dog’s tail shifts into overdrive and its eyes pleadingly grow to the size of saucers.]
[panel 3: the man grins and hoists a pancake above their canine companion. Its eyebrows arch and body quivers.]
[panel 4: the man releases the pancake and it stops with a soft plop atop the dog’s head.]
[panel 5: the dog searchingly turns toward the noise, pancake still resting between its eyes.]
[panel 6: the dog’s brows lift in grief as it turns right, continuing to helplessly investigate the mystery of the missing pancake.]
Patterned clothes are less interesting than textured clothes
I rarely find myself taking a second look at a piece of clothing whose only notable quality is a properly applied shade or hue. The main draw in every piece of compelling apparel is its texture. Does it look sheer? Soft? Stiff? The emotion evoked by a slogan, illustration, or pattern is nearly always superseded or at least altered by apparent textural context. A bad Christmas long sleeve or a knitted “granny’s little cumstain” sweater would elicit vastly different reactions compared to their more conventional cousins.
All of that is to say that texture is the end-all for clothes. It is the medium through which your message is broadcasted. Tones and shapes are transient, texture is forever.
Love me… love me not
[panel 1: a cartoonishly drawn child wearing a pink t-shirt and black spandex shorts sits on a grassy hillside, nearly resting their back against the verdant scene. They put their weight on their elbow and pluck a flower from the grass with a smile.]
[panel 2: they lean over the flower and, whilst plucking petals, say “Loves me… Loves me not… Loves me… Loves me not…”
[panel 3: they point at the flower and focus their attention further.]
[panel 4: their finger wags at the petals as they enumerate and whisper “Loves me… Loves me not.]
[panel 5: they sit up and glance about to see if anyone is watching]
[panel 6: they simultaneously tear off two leaves and say “Loves me…”]
[panel 7: the flower shouts at the now sobbing child, “HEY, HEY, HEY. NO CHEATING! YOU ALREADY KNOW YOU’RE NOT LOVED!”]
Timeless
[panel 1: a large dodo approaches a clean, well dressed vagrant youth sat beside a well fashioned wood and stone building. The youth warily guards a bag holding their belongings and the stick they use to travel with it. The dodo asks “Pardon me, do you have the time?” and the youth replies “yes, it’s -“]
[panel 2: the dodo exclaims “You have the time!”]
[panel 3: a quartet of dodos appear and excitedly chatter over one another: “He has the time.” “The time! he has it!” “At long last! Our desperate search is at an end! The time has been found!”]
[panel 4: they lean in amongst one another and whisper “PSSHHWSSSSPTT SSHSSHHPSSTT”]
[panel 5: the group approaches the youth and asks “Will you… give us the time?” And the youth replies “It’s nine fifteen.” The dodos exclaim “AAAAAHHH! NOW WE HAVE THE TIME!”]

How do I direct link to an Imgur gif/video/webm?
I’m trying to submit a direct link on lemmyshitpost but not one of my attempts has yielded a direct image link that actually plays the giffeo.

Links I’ve tried so far:
https://i.imgur.com/6VfBQfa (obviously not right) https://i.imgur.com/6VfBQfa.gif (doesnt play) https://i.imgur.com/6VfBQfa.webm (doesn’t load) https://i.imgur.com/6VfBQfa.gifv (doesn’t anything) https://i.imgur.com/6VfBQfa.mp4 (nope)
Anyone know how to direct link to an Imgur giffeo?
