And maybe don’t take this -ax through the Swamp of Sadness, yeah?

Are you suggesting that the president is still discretely and greedily gobbling dick?

Dave Thomas died so that he’d never have to read this thread.

Honor the red, white, and splooge.

Fill my eyes with that tunnel vision.

No disguise…

That out of context quote takes a lot of shit for something that was supposed to represent a futuristic socialist utopia.

The idea was that 14 years after that article was published, mankind would have such immediate access to services and those services would be free, that people would just sorta stop caring about owning things. For example, since food and necessities would be free, you could go home and print your dinner. If you wanted someone else to cook, you’d get something delivered. But, if you wanted to try something truly novel that most people don’t do anymore in this society, you could rent kitchen equipment and it’d be ready as soon as you need it, and you’d use socialized appliances and utensils. Why? Because your home doesn’t need that clutter. If you wanna cook all the time, you can own whatever you want. But most people will want to use that space for something else, so they’ll just print their meals.

You would have quick and easy access to transport, so why waste the money and space to own a car? You wanna drive? Push a button in your app and a car arrives for free. Or take the free train or bus.

The essay isn’t about “you won’t be able to own anything,” it’s about “you won’t want to own anything, but you’ll have everything you could ever want or need.”

And we’re really headed in the right direction for this amazing future. Except, you know… Corporations are bleeding us dry instead of supporting us…

I love your detailed response and admire your passion. For the record, I was being sarcastic since trepanning as a treatment was not intended for direct interaction with the brain. I threw the “deep tissue” in there because Mr. Gage did in fact get a hole in his skull. Unintentionally and originating from the wrong side.

We are all the ham on this glorious day

Sinceriously the best

Studying the effects of deep tissue trepanning?

Yes and no. The rod was actually a metal straw and the powder charge was actually a car traveling down I-80. Pretty common mistake.

The only reason this is documented so inaccurately is because everyone was too busy looking at the Kim Kardashian pic that broke the Internet and couldn’t open their camera app quickly enough to get it for the vine.

My previous boss showed me the job listing and said that it was better than anything he could offer, and told me to apply for it out else he’d lose respect for me.

They’re marshmallow fluff. Matt is the sliced ham and Trey is the ketchup.

Just like Mom used to make.

I guess I gotta put this on a shirt before my next visit with my Brahmin in-laws

I couldn’t resist

Not if you blow on it.

Right?
…Right?

I gotta argue with you on your last point. Any meat that’s delicious with just salt should only be seasoned with salt. Anything more and you interfere with the flavor.

When I drop something on the floor and then blow on it in short soft bursts, it’s suddenly clean enough to consume.

Why are you arguing with me? I just explained it. Tide goes in because tide goes out.

Fuck it! We’ll do it live!

Why do people keep telling me this?
