You arrive home from a day of merry objectifying and microagressing to find that your house is gone. In its place is the feminist bookstore from Portlandia. The building is silent and inanimate as usual, but in the pit of your stomach you can feel a palpable sense of dread and rage emanating from its very foundation. Through the fogged windows you can perceive no details other than a dim red glow. As you approach warily, a faint rumbling can be heard from deep below the earth. Your instincts are shouting at you to flee, to run away and never stop, but you are inexplicably compelled to walk up what was once your front path, as the rumbling increases in volume and pitch. You reach for the doorknob, your hand shaking as violently as the incensed earth. Your key does not fit, but the door opens anyway. It seems almost as though gravity has rotated 90 degrees, and you fall through the doorway, there is no other word for it. Behind you, the door creaks slightly as it swings smoothly shut.

A regular-seeming bookstore but every book contains the soul of a fallen feminist and they all scream "SMASH THE PATRIARCHY" when you open one of the books

Also there's a small VHS section in the back but despite the slipcase every tape is a copy of Zardoz
When people asked why we closed GBS I should have said "to cleanse the earth of brutals."

A stone age representation of the creative and destructive nature of womanhood but it's the feminist bookstore from Portlandia and dozens of cave people live in awe of it.

Anthropologists find similar representations in murals dated 16000 years later on 2 different continents that had no previous contact with each other.

A clay sculpture in one of Alexander the Great's storehouses indicates that the Angry Feminist Bookstore was also known to the people of his empire.

It appears to be a force that has been with humankind through the ages, across all civilizations. But what does it mean? How did it come to be? We may never know.

Indiana Jones bursts out the front door of the feminist bookstore from Portlandia, yelling and running at full tilt. Comic Relief Sidekick Character, seeing the panic in his eyes, hurries to get the motorcycle started, and they're moving before Dr. Jones is even fully seated in the sidecar. "What did you find in there, Indy?" CRSC asks. "I dunno, kid," Jones replies ruggedly, "but whatever it is... it's angry." Fade out to Nazi scene.

His High Exaltedness, the great Jabba the Hutt, has decreed that you are to be terminated immediately... You will therefore be taken to Northeast Portland and cast into the gentrified black neighborhood, the nesting place of the all-powerful Angry Feminist Bookstore... In its belly, you will find a new definition of pain and suffering, as you are slowly digested over a thousand years."

My uncle works for Disney and he told me some new Star Wars canon info: when Vader threw the Emperor down that big shaft, at the bottom of it was an angry feminist bookstore, and after having spent 30 years in its clutches, Palpatine emerges as Snoke

the dent in Snoke's forehead is from where they removed the part of the brain responsible for misogyny

I've never played Destiny but it seems like a running theme for the levels is "ancient ruins of 20th-century human buildings, but now they're filled with monsters and ghoulies" so I eagerly await the Angry Feminist Bookstore raid

Rumor has it that there is, buried in a drawer somewhere in the FBI Archives, a floppy disk containing the Doom map of Columbine High that the shooters made beforehand. Hidden on the disk and accessible only through an obscure, long-dead flavor of Linux, embedded in several nested sets of sequential .rar files, is a file called ang_fem_bk.wad.


Not a soul remains alive today that can truly claim to have loaded this file into zDoom.

Yesterday I had to do work at someone's house and they had a second floor they never went to and when I went up there to check on stuff it was just full of dead bats. Dead bats littering the floor. I couldn't walk without stepping on a dead bat. I told them and they laughed like living underneath some kind of bat holocaust was something they knew about and were fine with.

Also Portlandia is funny.

100% chance these people are vampires or other supernatural bullshit. If you gave them your address RIP.
