The greatest trick the devil pulled was branding pistachio candy bars as “Dubai” and charging $20.99 a piece lol

I know reddit is a cesspit but the top question on r/askreddit right now is "What is a subtle way to check for monsters under the bed when you're hooking up with a girl at her place, so she doesn't think you're scared?" and the answers and replies are actually delightful.

Stranger things premiered July 15, 2016 and it's five season run will end on Dec 31 2025, Certainly not the longest time to do five seasons but it has to be up there.

My two christmas song hot takes are Simply Having a Wonderful time is a charming and delightful song and Mariah's All I Want for Christmas is always in heavy rotation because it's a masterpiece.

Imagine having a foe like Joe Biden who will never publicly defend themself or their legacy in the face of your ceaseless attacks. what a gift “norms” are!

Calling Stephen Miller a hypocrite will certainly make him reflect on the immense power and wealth he has amassed by being a raging xenophobic creep. Got 'im. Got 'im good.

All youtube DIY plumbing instructional vidoes are set in a fantasy world where there is plenty of room to access the hardware, there's no rust, corrosion or build up on the valves and nuts, and nothing leaks after a single quarter-turn tighten.

Lies. All lies.

Welp I'm done with football this year.

Settling for three five minutes after passing up the opportunity to do the exact same thing is an indictment of Campbell's coaching. Sorry not sorry.

Why did I get interested in sports. I was so happy before I cared.

Wow, Detroit gets a downfield penalty on a clutch play that HELPS them?

First time for everything.
November 27, 2025 at 8:54 PM
I respect detroit going for it on fourth but man.

Trying not to do a politics on Thanksgiving but I hope not being involved in that half time show made Kid Rock regret his life choices.
November 27, 2025 at 8:38 PM
Detroit and penalties in clutch moments. Iconic duo

Okay the under is looking like a bad bet lol
Lions are a 2.5 favorite over Packers with 48.5 O/U and if I had sports betting on my phone I would bet packers moneyline and the under.
November 27, 2025 at 8:15 PM
Its' been downhill for the Lions since Amon-Ra did the trump dance as tribute to Trump at the commanders game.
November 27, 2025 at 6:57 PM
I guess the good news is after this game I don't have to invest any emotions in football for the rest of the season. I can save them up for other things like....

oh dear god. I have nothing.

Never ever trust a republican
In the #TN7 race, Matt Van Epps and Republicans have resorted to sending mailers as if they are a Democratic agency and intentionally giving the wrong date to get people out to vote.
