    Is the Alternian version of linking Rick Astley's "Never gonna give you up" called rick-trolling?

    A pickup line

    The real reason Bruce Wayne keeps training kids is so that there’s eventually a gradually cascading order of vigilantes protecting Gotham. When you defeat one, there’s a slightly smaller one just behind, ready to pick up the slack.

    Imagine a group of nerds who are commenting on current happenings, sort of peripheral to it.
    A Geek Chorus, if you will.

    Today I learned that there is a bird named the taiga bean-goose, and the term for a group of them is "a pod of bean geese".

    A+ work, ornithologists of yesteryear.

    considering that they take an oath to do no harm, if a doctor killed somebody, that'd be pretty hippocratical of them, don't you think?

    At least you aren't swearing about how foul your language gets, because that would just be a bit too recursive.

    (Following a discussion of books with Greek characters)
    Coworker: I like talking about Greek characters with people because I'm never quite sure how to pronounce their names.
    Me: Well, I'm not 100% that that's how Iphigenia is pronounced.
    Coworker: Yeah, but I look at these names and I don't even know where to start.
    Me: You could say it's all Greek to you?

    (The same coworker is singing along with the radio)
    Coworker: This is my jam!
    Coworker 2 starts singing along
    Coworker: My jam is spreading!

    strictly quadrilateral alive, alive, alive!

    okay but i took greek and we were all either super pedantic about the names or just pronounced them silly ways, depending on the context. no in between.

    edit: ancient greek pronunciation is made up, and i will defend it or laugh at it also depending on context

    So I was hanging out with a few people from uni, drinking vanilla flavoured wodka
    And, as it happens among allosexual people, the topic of sex came up.
    And I don't know, maybe it was because most people were straight, or maybe I just consumed too much excellent smutfic over the years, but it was almost painfully standard
    So I was like "Tab-A-Into-Slot-B sex, that's just about as vanilla as this wodka!"

    Spent yesterday at Longleat Safari Park with the girlf, and this included a VIP off-roading experience during which we got to chill out amongst the giraffes. The nice guide who was driving us around commented that they were almost like dinosaurs, to which @Socket replied:

    "You could almost say it's like... Giraffic Park!"

    Then later on, we met a very inquisitive ray that kept swimming around and booping its face against the tank where we were standing. Girlf then remarks:

    "Aw, it's so friendly! ...I guess you could say it's ext-RAY-verted!"

    It was truly a beautifully punny day.

    I told this to a punmaster friend of mine. Here was his reply

    Avi: I'm going to have to use this one as a pickup line!

    Me: *sigh* Why?

    Avi: It's so romantic!
