I read that as "pavement merchandise" at first glance.
Linguistic priming works as QEDed™.

@topspin it is demonstrated, indeed.

Yeah, I’m shilling a podcast I like.

Dunno, man, I'd need like, nearly as many kitten pictures as Bitcoin. That's a lot of kitten pictures. And if I wanted to retain compressibility, I'd need even more kitten pictures.

@BernieTheBernie exists, and we don't have this?

He's more of a deflater anyway.

Schadenfreude is a loan word and means the same thing in English.
Thank You Guys for inventing it so there's a convenient way to describe how I feel about bad things happening to Tom Brady.

Yeah, we use that word here too - skaddenfroodie is how to say it, if you were wondering.

Sadly, I can't seem to find anyone who made mash-up emoji with facepalm. This is the best I found.

@Tsaukpaetra Craiyon doesn't understand "fecal" but it does pretty well.
NightCafe doesn't know what a facepalm is
Or rather, only in some styles that are not too emoji-like.
Honorary mention for Deep Dream that made something like a nightmare of a humanoid power outlet stuck deep in a shithouse.

@LaoC I like the middle-left Dall-E one, seems the most fitting.
