3 hours and no one did this yet? I'm surprised.
Kinda:
Impeccable word choice.

No. No one had yet stooped to that level of mindlessly repetitive unfunniness.
As if my joke wasn't dumb enough.
If we're going to use the giggity thing that much, why don't we just have a giggity button which can be used to flag things which can vaguely be construed as sexual innuendo? (which, at this point, is almost everything in the English language).

<to paraphrase xkcd.com/559/>Where is the supposed original post that this one is too similar to? Limbo? 502 Gateway Error Hell?

Gotta love discourse. Or maybe Firefox
Yup, definitely have to unspoil this now...

The spoiler thing is a plug in to discourse IIRC. And links showing through is an old bug in it.

Remember: the safest way, now, to avoid accusations of rape, is to...
Stop fucking? At least in California. Gives ya cancer doncha know...

Sorta the intention. I tried 3 iterations of HTMLDiscourseMarkup to get that to render that way (as opposed to having MarkupDiscourseHTML rendered as
raw
within the spoiler.)

Stop fucking?
Doesn't work.
Accusations have been made when the parties weren't even in the same room, let alone bed.False accusations are a thing, and rape's a particularly nasty one because in most cases there aren't witnesses, and physical evidence is either nonexistent or invasive to acquire.

So I just found out today that Slack, a web chat client, basically added this:
Apparently they were bikeshedding over whether it should be a like, a +1, a thumbs up, or what, and then decided, fuck it, you can add a "reaction" to any post using any emoji in their set. Including custom ones.
-
we need this! no more likes! reactions!
-
Chizza!
So far, only available in the Philippines, but you can't say you weren't warned.

Didn't Something Awful have that in 2004?
-
24 people were horrified by this. were horrified by it too.

Castrop-Rauxel (not Caxtrop-Rauxel) is actually in WESTERN GERMANY.
To be more precise, in the middle of the Ruhrgebiet.Fucking incompetent journalists who are too lazy to at least take a look at Google maps to check their facts.
EDIT: On the map:

Still better than crashing and burning like IE ...

Bad idea: believing your boyfriend when he tells you he can't get married as long as gays aren't allowed to.

bad idea: lying that you cant get married for social just ice reasons when the truth is you don't want to be married and don't want to tell her that.
-
TIL social is nothing more than ice.
-
no. no. no.
it is just ice.
get it right.
it's not just any ice. it's just ice!

I sometimes play Awesomenauts, where they added at some point a character named Scoop, who is a Gelato Paladin (yes, really!). The puns!

This guy went from Scarlett Johanssen or however you spell her name to the Pillsbury Doughgirl. Bad ideas seems to be his watchword.

Then we just have to decide on the sucks-to-be-you emoji!
-
Do we have an "idiots getting hurt" thread yet?

That seems to fit here:

os that genderbent ghostbusters?
AWESOME!

Supposedly there is some kind of all female ghostbusters in the works.

Bad idea: Having your missile battery connected to the public internet and having it hacked
-
"Hackers briefly took over the missiles"
And then what? Did they fire the missiles but return them when they were done?
-
BAD IDEA: This "acronym"
-
That's the kind of bad idea I could get behind.

Surely they could manage a better backronym?

The thing (one of them) that really makes me angry is that I know a guy who was undeniably raped by a girl he had no interest in while sleeping off the party on a friend's sofa. He literally came to with her on top of him.
Most people at the time seemed to think it was funny or just some sort of misunderstanding on her part, as if a girl can't rape a guy. If he had reported it I wonder if she would have been arrested.Obviously if the poster said 'the next day both were charged with rape' that wouldn't be any better. How about changing the whole stupid poster to espouse mutual consent and responsibility. Just a thought.

It would be bad form if you laughed during the Darwin Award Presentation
-
Mutual? Sorry, egalitarianism is offensive. Only men can be criminals.
Did you hear the one where they want to stop female prisons, because women need love and support for the bad situation they're in, not punishment for doing what couldn't possibly be their fault.
