Have I lost track of what memes are? Or is it the children who are wrong?

Or even birth control

Holy shit, was that a Frequency reference?

I do love German humor

That’s the movie that introduced me to Elliot Smith!

I just put myself in that scenario and had the thought “man, what if she’s flustered about something else, and having a rough day in general, then I go and swoop in and basically accuse her of being poor in public. She’d feel terrible and I will have made her day worse.”

You would have walked out of there feeling like shit in two of the three ways that could have gone. Don’t beat yourself up over it; clearly you’re empathetic and care about people. That tells me you DO act when it’s appropriate and you do want to be a positive force in this world. Congratulations! The world is better with you in it

I live in a city where most popular bands tour, but I definitely would travel internationally to see a show just to make a week out of it. I was considering going to RAtM when they were in Europe, because I couldn’t get good seats in the US. I definitely would have gone if I could have gotten better seats in Europe. Alas, couldn’t get good seats there either

I haven’t seen it a million times (3-4, maybe?), but the word “flibbertigibbet” lives in my head rent free

Oooodelolly!

I watched the Challenger disaster on the wheelie TV cart

In addition, if you see a video like this, I prefer to select “don’t recommend channel”

Is it? It could be. I thought I remembered it as a standalone book from when I was a kid. That was MANY moons ago, so I could be wrong

Another “not Aesop’s fables” answer:

The story of the dog carrying a bone who looks in the water, and sees the reflection of another dog with a bone. He barks at this dog to try to take for himself a second bone, and in doing so, loses his own in the water. Trying to get more than you deserve or taking what others have leaves you with nothing of your own.

I did the same thing at the same place a few years ago!

I offered to do the same and was literally scoffed at, then reprimanded for my audacity. It was a really fucking shitty experience.

While true, it definitely depends on your particular TSA team. I have flown multiple times with firearms within the US, and normally TSA follows their own rules pretty well. However, I have had TSA DEMAND my key so they could open the case outside of my presence. When I protested and gave them the handout of their own procedures, the guy said “you can give me the key, or you don’t get on your flight.”
