that one really weird thing on your mind that is making you laugh your ass off

A joke that never fails to make me smile is when people take something perfectly ordinary and then give it an art gallery-esque label. The first example I saw (and I wish I could find it) was a drawing of a dick in a bathroom stall; someone else had added a little plaque to the effect of "Anonymous, Penis on Wall, 2006, ink."

 

These screenshots of options for "Relationship Status" when creating a TV Tropes account

Everything about this is perfect.

EDIT: also... this video, whose existence is surely a sign that we inhabit one of the Good universes:



"home to literally dozens of animals" for some reason is the most hilarious part to me...

i just discovered that there is a font called Hobo Std and i'm loling about the idea of there being a skeleton with that name

 

I keep randomly thinking about this and laughing like a loon since yesterday evening. I only BARELY managed not to do that in choir today. Why are Gaston song rewrites so freakin funny??????

 

........
have I seriously gone decades on this earth casually thinking that gunpowder tea actually had gunpowder in it
apparently it does not. ?
good job self



eta: did I seriously never think about it for more than 5 seconds up until now, no one consumes gunpowder!!! fuck.

 

that is apparently a common mistake and one i find hilarious

it's only called that because of how the leaves are rolled into tight little balls

 

I just thought it was the middle bit of the venn diagram between tea drinkers and rednecks

honestly a tiny bit disappointed that this is the world we live in.

 

omfg that would have been great if it were true

 

@Lambda Years ago I read the Sharpe series (historical fiction in the Napoleonic wars) and I never forgot the bit about people biting open paper cartridges to load their rifles. I kind of assumed gunpowder tea tasted a bit similar.

 

The perpetual fountain of mirth that is people using "Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them" as a ~meaningful~ Shakespeare quote and not realizing that in the original context it was being used to mock someone who was too stupid and arrogant to realize it was mockery, and was then followed with a bunch of advice for how to "achieve greatness" which would make the victim look like a complete idiot. Which he completely fell for. While three people who were watching half-killed themselves trying not to laugh.

I can't confirm it was also a dick joke but knowing Shakespeare it was probably also a dick joke.

 

so, i go into the comments section on someone's video and lo and behold:

this makes some sense in context but... i'm loling 'cause, well... GASTER

i'm pretty sure GASTER is a NERD

 

If we stick to the font names being similar to the person's personality thing there is approximately a 100% chance anyone named frickin wing dings is a huge nerd and also very silly.

 

Okay, sulfur and potassium nitrate are probably bad for you. But what would happen if you put a tiny bit of charcoal in tea?

 

Probably nothing except maybe it tastes kinda smokey. It's just carbon, after all.

 

Supposedly charcoal pills are good for various GI gripes, so depending on the amount, it might help with that.

 

Matcha with activated charcoal powder is apparently a thing in detox woo circles.

 

For smokey flavour that I can confirm is excellent, try lapsang souchong. It's like drinking a campfire.

 

These beautiful examples of creative hall passes.

I did not know hall passes were like a real thing until now, and I never imagined anything like THIS. XDDDD (I went to a teeny tiny Catholic girls' school, and before that smallish public schools. No hall passes.)

 

Apparently some crabs can swim and their technique is A+



Lookit 'im go!
