I knew I’d been playing too much GTA (would have been around the VC/SA days probably) when I was out driving one day, heard sirens, and looked up in the corner of my windshield to see if I had any stars.
That The Knack/Ting Tings/Toni Basil mashup got me thinking about other great mashups, so I’m wondering what your favorites are. Here are a few of mine:...
Completely random stoned hypothetical. Lets day im old as fuck and I decide I’m ready and done. Could I have the same postmortem autopsy done on me while I’m still alive? Like give me a ton of drugs and let me watch myself get dissected as my final moments. I understand there is a legal and possibly moral concern, but is it...
Specifically, Finn Shelby since the actor is actually from Birmingham.
That was one thing that always kinda bugged me about that show. How do a bunch of siblings who all grew up in the same place all have different regional accents?!
I don’t think I’ve ever seen any of those except for just plain Slug Bug.
The other game we used to play, probably at least 20 years ago now, was if you saw an oncoming car with a headlight out, you’d yell “sex” and everyone has to touch the ceiling, and then iirc the original spotter got to punch the last person to touch the ceiling. Dunno if that’s still a thing or not.
Much as I admire this fine artwork, I initially doubted its historical accuracy. However, after diligent research I can confirm that it was closely based on archive photographs of the notorious Waffen SS Scantily-Clad Hell Vixens division in action
It’s simple, really. When you were born, the government rented a million steam carpet cleaners in your name, which you can now use to pay off your credit card debt, by writing the serial number of one of the carpet cleaners in the “pay to the order of” section of your bill and mailing it to your landlord via a certified letter. However, this only works if the last two digits of the serial number are written in red ink, and if your landlord flies a gold fringed flag in the back of his pickup. Or, wait, maybe it’s if he doesn’t fly a gold fringed flag. I don’t remember. Anyway, if the judge has a large dog that sheds a lot, and thus has a strong need for a carpet cleaner of their own, they may choose to waive the red ink requirement, but this can also only occur if you have exactly 4 silver stars on your License To Travel, which is a document that you obtain from that sketchy tweaker who works at Kinkos. He will only print these on his lunch break, if his supervisor isn’t watching. Luckily, he also accepts payment in government-rented steam cleaners, though he’s not really very happy about that, because word got out and now he has like a hundred steam cleaners in his garage that he doesn’t know what to do with. So you have to make sure he doesn’t spell your name incorrectly out of spite. Note that spelling your name “incorrectly” is, in this case, actually spelling it correctly per your state-issued birth certificate, because you fucking told him to spell it in all caps and follow it up with “, LLC”, damnit Jimmy you’re going to get me arrested again, what the fuck, you stupid tweaker, can’t you do anything right?! I’ll get you your goddamn meth, just shut up and print the fucking thing like I told you to, Jimmy.
