Ostrichgrif,

Remember that admittedly low bar I mentioned? He clears it easily it’s not even a competition. The fact that he hasn’t given the middle finger to every union puts him ahead of the rest.

Ostrichgrif,

One thing I always loved when taking Latin in school was how succinct the insults are. Are you an idiot simply boils down to stultus es, a common insult was fur meaning thief which in practice was used for many circumstances. My favorite was bustirape (pronounced Boos-te-ra-pay) which meant grave robber, but roughly translates to lowdown son of a bitch. Maybe it was because they had to chisel so much of their language into stone, but the Romans really were champions of brevity.

Ostrichgrif,

Yeah as a bass player I never fell for that video for one second lol. Get out of here with all those strings!

Ostrichgrif,

Well Georgia’s purple now but has been red since the party switch, it’s not democrats making these maps. This last election was the rule, not the exception. Anecdotally the whole region north west of Atlanta is solidly purple, and almost all Republican candidates are moderate. MTG wouldn’t survive in any reasonably drawn district in this region of the state.

Ostrichgrif,

As someone from twenty minutes south of MTGs district I’d like to point out that nearly every district (minus the one north) touching hers is firmly blue and she only gets elected because every rich and rural town in the area has been gerrymandered to fuck into one district. Certain parts of Georgia are deep red but the only reason she gets elected is fucked up maps.

Now that DuckDuckGo is out. Give me your search prompts and I'll answer them as best I can. That includes images (based on what I have saved on my PC). So what is it you wish to know or see?

Edit: Due to popular demand FatTony Search servers are down for the time being. but has gone open source just in time (Yes that’s how it works 😡) . You may now get responses from other users. Servers will be back up some time later.

Ostrichgrif,

The search engine is just down temporarily.

Ostrichgrif,

Is it just me or does the tick in the picture look like a delicious slice of tomato? Maybe I should get some lunch…

Ostrichgrif,

Best I can do is a guy I went to school with who had a big following on Music.ly which later turned into tiktok. He got famous when he was singing and dancing in front of his dying grandmother… Here’s a link

Ostrichgrif,

That’s totally valid and I respect it, I was going long distances on American highways, I’m sure in Europe it’s a much more suitable vehicle. I also deeply relate to turning off the AC to overtake, my car has around 160 horsepower which might as well be nothing in the states. Much respect and again congrats on your hard work paying off.

Ostrichgrif,

Holy shit I know nothing about blender but this is a seriously impressive model. 180 hours on anything is an accomplishment and this reflects all the time you spent on it, it looks perfect to my eye. My only question is why that car? I drove one of those as a rental car and it was without a doubt the worst vehicle I’ve ever driven. Either way the actual model looks stunning, congratulations on a job well done.

Ostrichgrif,

They just copied and pasted the text. It’s spelled fairly.

Ostrichgrif,

As an iced tea enjoyer, who has been to almost 40 states that is absolutely untrue. I’ve never been to any restaurant that serves sweet tea but does not serve unsweetened as well. Some places especially in the north don’t consistently have either, but in my experience, if they have one they always have the other

Ostrichgrif,

Okay fair enough, I haven’t been to many Midwestern states, especially rural areas of those states. I was more referring to places carrying only sweet tea and not unsweet

Ostrichgrif,

I’m a big car guy so I typically use car makes and models but never ones I actually own, usually I’ll go with some like SubaruImprezaWrxSti2012 except I scramble the order of the words and throw the year in a random position. This is really easy to remember while also being long and insane enough to be difficult to guess.

What's a band that has one album that is just about perfect in your opinion, but rest of their discography misses the mark with you?

One of mine is Commit This to Memory by Motion City Soundtrack. I basically took the title verbatim and know the album word for word. And while I would love if it did, the rest of MCS’s stuff just doesn’t hit the same way....

Ostrichgrif,

I like some of the songs on the subsequent albums but you’re absolutely right. That first album is just banger after banger and each album after got 30-50% worse until we ended up with whatever the hell panic at the disco is today.

Ostrichgrif,

I heard a story once that he made that song to show how easy it is to have a mega hit song even though he didn’t like it himself, kind of like the guys that formed MGMT. Unsure of the source on that and it could very well be untrue but it would make sense.

Ostrichgrif,

Oh wow I had no idea they stopped using the band name. Definitely for the best, I don’t think they’ve really been a band for quite some time.

Ostrichgrif,

Aren’t bimbo titties specifically not jiggly though?

Summer is the worst season of the year, isn't?

The sun sucks, being forced to shower like every 4 hours just to not feeling sweaty, the fucking mosquitoes, the fact you can’t wear anything that you want anymore due the heat, the people outside… The fucking beach. I try to avoid it… The fucking sand, not a fan of it. Is scratchy, harsh, annoying and it infiltrates in...

Ostrichgrif,

Simply move to the southeast US, summer starts at the beginning of April and ends around Halloween

Ostrichgrif,

Marijuana maybe? I don’t know how strict the guns laws are there but that’s the closest I can think of.

Ostrichgrif,

Why are tall centrally obese people a different category than regular obese people? Just seems like a weird distinction to make.

Ostrichgrif,

Yikes that sounds like she was trying to give you an eating disorder. Im sure that was stressful anytime you just wanted a snack

Ostrichgrif,

Sure you can believe that as much as you want but it doesn’t change that fact that some percentage of people are still going to drive entirely too fast, not to mention the much larger number of people who will drive a little over the limit. Study after study has shown the best way to move people going different speeds is to pass in the left lane and use the other lanes to go progressively slower as you move left. If you don’t think people should speed that’s fair and I agree, but that doesn’t change the fact that people will do it anyway.

Elon Musk says it's his turn to have the remote (www.engadget.com)

[Xitter] just announced a smart TV app for streaming video. Or, more accurately, that it claims it’s building one, with absolutely no launch date mentioned. The appropriately-named [Xitter] TV wants to be “your go-to companion for a high-quality, immersive entertainment experience on a larger screen.”

Ostrichgrif,

I always mentally read that as “shitter”
