It must be kinda humiliating to be forced out of a business you named after yourself.

I don't know if this is the best joke about train scales ever made but gently caress, it's up there. And it's hosed up that it passed without notice

it's alright but it's even funnier that you keep asking for recognition about it. Don't be your own cheering section, it's a bad look.

I'm sorry, I really wish I was into model trains/gunpla enough that I got the joke. :(

Whenever it's free, I actually like the pepper, but that garlic-flavored grease is a horrific loving abomination.

Personally, I think that if the train scale joke was explained to me I would be able to appreciate it on the level it deserves. Care to post about what made the joke work Gripweed? If I understand it I may post it in the "Funny Forums Quotes" thread. We're just talking about racism in there anyways.

Model trains have different scales, each scale is denoted by a letter



As I said, no other kind of miniature uses that scale, which makes it difficult to use model train stuff with wargaming miniatures or what have you. I expressed my frustration with that by saying "More like FOH scale" I used the naming convention of model train scales, N scale, HO scale, etc. but the letters I used were FOH, which is shorthand for gently caress Outta Here

Babies and children are cute and fun and people who don't like children are almost as weird as people who have a strong preference of dogs or cats vs. the other, instead of just liking both like a human being.

People who don't like crows because they bring bad luck or something or pigeons or who kick at them on the street are scumbags and that poo poo should be fined.

I don't think liking one animal more than another is weird. Cats and dogs are very different to deal with (plus other pets like bird, fish, rodents, etc), so it makes sense that different personality types would prefer different kinds of pet ownership. Dogs are cute and I will happily pet someone else's, but I have no desire to be responsible for one. Cats just suit me better.

I agree that people who always dislike children are weird. If you can't even appreciate a cute happy baby you need to lighten up.

My phuo: I don't think it's anyone else's business how someone else eats. I'm on a special diet prescribed by my neurologist and neurosurgeon and I'm shocked at the number of people who think they know better than doctors do. Uninformed, unrequested opinons about my own health can gently caress right off.

I mean, I get not wanting to care for one or the other or either, but some people are all like "i'm a dog person, not a cat person" like it's an identity. That always struck me as neurotic, same with superstitions about certain animals.

I believe I mentioned before that I don't understand why people want to have children to the point where I really have no idea why my own parents even wanted to have me, so I probably just don't have a healthy attitude on the subject.

Philip K Dick was the same way.

Although he had kids.

I will say this, kids are expensive and are almost guaranteed to a) disappoint you and b) outlive you.

If not b) it's cuz you were up too late watching Adult Swim and got really invested in the idea of Gerber Baby Insurance. And that ICP baby coffin started looking a little too cool.

I like cute happy kids. Most of the time they aren’t either, especially if they’re random kids about town and not famiy or friends’ kids. I’m not a “crotschspawn” guy but being stuck behind three rowdy kids at the supermarket is just annoying.

The major difference there is that, when you die, your children will most likely be independent adults whereas your parrot will require someone else to take on its care and upkeep.

He, like every single cop, is a sociopathic gangster given legal authority to rob and murder the underclass.

The people who hide behind them deserve to live in the hell world they fear would come if they went away. Unfortunately they would only have to live with the guilt of wholeheartedly supporting a genocidal death squad that made the world a worse place.

McNulty was such an honest portrayal of a cop it was great. His wake was a little disappointing in that he attended it and was predictably drunk. But honestly that's what a dick looks like. Drinking way too hard trying to process what an unbelievably lovely job he does.
