Last time I asked that the only thing they liked was that I briefly held a job that wasn’t related to the field at all. It was working at a library. “I thought that was neat.”
That was it. Nothing else was noteworthy.

Not the above poster but I’ve had dentists share the same sentiment and mostly I’ve heard it’s because the majority of their patients who use it, use it as a replacement for more thorough dental care–they don’t floss and/or brush because they think they’re getting clean enough with the pik. The dentist who told me this basically said, “It’s fine as a supplement after you brush and after you floss, to flush out any lingering debris from those two activities, but it’s really just not worth the time or money.”
I recently read them all back to back. It’s been fun, I appreciate the consistency of style and humor while the jokes age up over time.
Certainly. The joke is the phenomenon known as Carcinisation. The idea that ‘everything winds up a crab’ in evolution.
Love your comment.
I actually got curious and tried to fact check this but then realized I had no way of knowing which sites really offered actual advice to such an inane little fact, or were just making shit up. :(
Absolutely! My reasoning as well. “Elegant” goes with just about everything.
Top right is accurate.
There’s something cathartic about seeing a comic character enact over the top violence on someone representing our everyday annoyances and rude people.
Your rage is justified and the phrase “It’s an attack on our personal space” absolutely nails it.
I bet!! It sounds like you had a truly exhausting day!
I guess I’m surprised because I’ve never been at a hotel that didn’t have a lobby open 24/7. Sure you can’t check in, but I’m surprised you couldn’t plop down in a seat in the lobby and read or browse on your phone until you could check in.
They wouldn’t let you chill out in the lobby?
Welcome to the Internet!
They do! Kurzesgast has a few videos about ants and one of them looks at a slaver ant!
So glad that my team is largely composed of busy tech folk because going “Sorry I was multitasking” is a valid response haha.
Hey thanks for posting this–both the original post and your own anecdote. I think personal hygiene is something that should be more comfortably chatted about. It’s weird cause most people are like “ew TMI” and yeah it can wind up in that space, but at the same time, I think there’s a lot of stuff people are lacking in knowledge in just cause it’s kind of embarrassing to talk about!
Anyway I think I also had this in my early 20s; at least I hope so. I remember scrubbing harder and harder under my pits and one day seeing something slough off and until recently I’ve always assumed I killed a bunch of skin and it all came off. But given the symptoms I had been having at the time, I think this might have been it.
That’d be fine if they didn’t infect people who can’t protect themselves and didn’t ask for it. Plus it would have been cool to have wiped another disease off the face of the planet.
I think people don’t realize that because we are fearful, we take a lot of extra precaution to avoid being put into situations that could spiral out of control. It’s almost like a survivorship bias.

I’m with you on the confusion because it’s like… I don’t feel the need to act this way, why do other people? What drives them that, in a void, they resort to these thoughts and behaviors? Is this who they really are, or is it an act, like doing an evil playthrough in a game. “I want to because I can here, and I can’t anywhere else?”
