Welp, I just used the word β€œpluribussy” and I hate both a) myself and b) that I know I’m not the first one to use it

If you get divorced, do you start calling it your "wedding rang"?

I once described the movie The Platform as Tall Snowpiercer, and I still stand by that.

Ford Government Bill Could Spell the End of Rent Control in Ontario Tenant groups are ringing the alarm over changes that could dramatically increase the price of rent and drive people out of their homes. But the proposed legislation, endorsed by the landlord lobby…

This is a question I also have. What magic are we hoping to recapture? What glory are we hoping to return to? What success are we hoping to replicate? What wins are we being tempted by? And why not at least try somebody who doesn't seem to inspire hostility everywhere he goes?

Husband and I saw a video about paleontologists who, after many years of searching and comparing, diagnosed the first known case of bone cancer in a dinosaur, 77 million years after it lived.

Me: That’s really awesome!
Husband: Not for that dinosaur.
Me: Yeah, too bad they didn’t catch it in time.

Pretty much every single one of these new government accounts is posting rage bait. It's possible (like 100% guaranteed) they are trying to provoke people here on purpose, so don't fall for it. Blockity block block block.

Dear luxury purses, please bring back multiple outside pockets. Also, not everything has to be pebbled leather.

Also, I don’t want a sequel to Ocean’s 8, but I do want a spinoff comprised entirely of Cate Blanchett wearing those velvet suits.

Look, I just don’t think Danny Ocean needed eleven people to pull that heist off. He probably could’ve done it with, like, three or four.

the inverse of this is how much of politics is now just accepting that you have to vote for people who hate you, so your best option is to vote for people who hate other people more than they hate you

I don’t think I would look good with a shaved head but I’d still like to experience shaving my head, does that make any sense?

When I was younger, I saw a news report that the first stall in a public bathroom is the cleanest, so I started using that one. But how many other people saw that report and did the same thing? Maybe we did change the world, in that now the first stall is fucking disgusting.

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.

Well, my team may not have won bar trivia tonight, but I did get to tell the host that one of his questions had TWO errors in it, so I think I’m the real winner.
