The Random Crap Thread 2: It Hits the Fan.

TommiR · Apr 24, 2017

Today, my boss had the moral courage to do the right thing, whereas I did not.

There might well be some crap heading towards the fan in the near future, and I'm partially involved. But I'm not exaggerating when I say that some lives were probably actually and literally saved.

Liking this for the lives saved, not as a commentary regarding your relative levels of moral fiber.

Also, good luck with the incoming crap.

Other than paying for the site, I think he's more important here than I am.

Anyone remember the name of that comic where it was based in the 60s, and the government genetically engineered superheroes to prove America as a superpower? But then their main one died of a heart attack, and was replaced by a new recruit who was a black man, and forced to cover a mask because no-one at the time would accept a black superhero? I looked up Blue Marvel's origin and it kinda feels like they ripped it off...also, really? They are REALLY trying to make me believe that there was another class-100 superhero that's been around forever, but only JUST resurfaced in the 2000s? That's just SILLY!

Took me 4 years, but I finally commented my way to 80,000 fake internet points, aka "Imgurite Glorious."

He's Halforums' equivalent of Argus Filch, complete with his own version of Mrs Norris.

Cancer journal retracts over 100 studies

Meanwhile I got a fat wad of downvotes for making fun of Black Mirror's tendency to pad out a single plot twist to an hour. Imgur doesn't like when you make fun of their precious pop culture obsessions.

Retraction Watch (also linked in the article) has lately become a great resource both for seeing what's getting pulled and generally becoming depressed about the fallibility of humans.

Really on a roll lately.

So I'm reaching up to the ceiling to remove a bug and my wife screams out "Don't eat that!"

Dei · Apr 24, 2017

She's got good instincts.

It was said with love. Or screamed as it were.

My scream was only partially out of concern for him

I watched this video of this song from my childhood during my lunch break at work, with headphones on, and unconsciously started doing the dance at my desk, and now my coworkers think I'm weird. Weirder.
