What holidays do you actually celebrate that most people would never have known people celebrate? in c/[email protected]

I've always thought about celebrating Arbor Day like that episode of Raising Hope. Yes, it's primarily so I can talk about Poppa Woody.

I usually buy the cheap Fruity Pebbles for my kids, but Walmart has out of them one day so I got the name brand as a treat. Their response? "Dad, please don't buy those again. Dyno Bites are better." I was flabbergasted.

Then again, they don't see cereal ads, don't know who the Flintstones are, but love dinosaurs.

Looks about right for an Adobe/Microsoft software package.

Everybody in this thread is arguing about white vs black magic and forgetting that the KKK leader is called the "Grand Wizard" for real. It's the reason for this comic.

Also to the people saying that this implies that black people can only cast black magic. That implies that black magic is bad. I disagree, think Final Fantasy.

My 9 year old has been obsessed with Spore YouTube videos lately and he asked for it for Christmas. Picked it up for $2 and he has been constantly talking about his species and the plans he has. Best bang for my buck Christmas present ever.

What's the highest score you got in a game? in c/[email protected]

I once got 29 in cribbage, then it was mostly 19s the rest of the game.

Cotylorhynchus, a genus of late Permian synapsids. It's herbivorous and it's huge gut was possibly necessary to digest the nutrient-poor plant life it fed on. in c/[email protected]

I can picture it now. An Ice Age movie where Sid, Manny, and Diego are hanging around a bar and this chonky boy shows up out of nowhere and makes an outrageous claim. Queue "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" music.

A "poop butt" and a "shit ass" have completely different meanings, despite the similarity of the words that make them up. (self.showerthoughts)

Why did Jesus Christ grow up to be such a good person? (self.dadjokes)
 

Because he was born into a stable home.

When do you brush your teeth? (self.asklemmy)
 

It is advised to brush your teeth at least twice a day, but when? Just before bed is a gimme because you're about to lie mostly still for 6+ hours. Best to not leave food particles to fester.

What's the best time for an earlier brushing? After breakfast? After lunch? After work/school?

Plus, what's up with TV and movies having breakfast scenes where they get up and head right out the door? Did they already brush and now they're going to leave food to fester all day? Eww.

My 7 year old loves to tell people "bite my shiny metal ass" and it's awesome. (self.futurama)
 

Wife and I decided to do another watch through before the new episodes. The 7 year old caught a couple and now he's hooked. His favorites to quote are Bender and Zoidberg. It's especially cute when he goes "wub wub wub!" At the grocery store. I'm so proud.
