My wife once posted a story about me to AITA and it was absolutely insane the answers she got. I'm not exaggerating when I say 95% of the people who heard the story IRL were on my side, but 95% of the people on Reddit were against me. Wife wasn't even that mad, she finds the story funny now and we laugh about how intensely that thread was against me. It's a fun drunken activity with friends to revisit the thread and read out the answers. Diagnosing me with mental issues and making bizarre accusations out of nowhere. Ridiculous subreddit.

Joke police here. We don't have "elementary school" in England. Pack it all up please.

These statements make it all the more maddening. How can you say it's not a triumph for one side while they literally toast champagne on your doorstep. Fucking old cunts, you know you'll all be dead soon and we'll just change the law anyway.

At least it's becoming less common for people to start comments with "Imagine..."

Kind of good that the guy died in 2013, before the whole networked-computers thing started really going to shit

They also proved it round with a gyroscope in the same documentary (Behind the Curve - a great watch)

The name "Kayleigh" was invented by Marillion in 1985

You definitely need to do something about it if the bags are starting to melt

We use butter. It also helps that our bread isn't absolutely disgusting.

All hail the Ducking, ruler of the lake

I'm gonna need this in meme form with no more than 15 words

The weird TLDs will just be normalised

If you can't handle my ribs at 3am, you don't deserve my ribs at 6:30pm

Yep, I wasn't being sarcastic when I said I'm glad they're happy. What a wonderful world we live in that these two ne'er-do-wells can find each other.

Glad they're happy but I would be pissed off beyond measure. You woke me up at 3am for this? No I don't want ribs at this time. I have to be up for work soon. Why are they even ready at this time anyway? Did it not occur to you that slow cooking might take a while? And to top it all off you want to eat them in bed and stain my sheets gtfo

Error message: "you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to fix this"

Junior dev: 😵

It's a weird one, they're usually acknowledging that the "boffin" in question is an expert or knowledgeable. Yet it's definitely a negative connotation imo, in a kind of anti-intellectual way. Here's a shitrag making the case for it being positive, if you're interested.

I definitely have a negative connotation of anyone that uses the word unironically.

I've said this before but I really want to hear some stories of trans men using the womens bathroom in these places. Big muscular men with bald heads and beards, barging in pissing everywhere and leaving toilet seats up.

I want to see the meltdown when people find out they're just following the law. Please trans bros do this for me.

This is a perfect example of why science is always useful. Without the knowledge of the results, it would be easy to point and laugh at the start of this. You can almost see the anti science headlines. "Boffins spend TWO MILLION of YOUR TAX to make petunias PURPLE".

This meme is British people poking fun at ourselves.

Americans just recycle the same jokes from Reddit "lol conquered the world but doesn't use spice". From people who've never left their home town. You can ignore those.

The French also insult our food and they have more of a point but that's another matter and I'll personally fight them over it
