Oh snap!
As an engineer, this makes me happy.

Having gay parents must be horrible
I mean you either get twice the usual amount of dad jokes or get stuck into an infinite loop of “go ask your mom”
i thought this was gonna be really rude or something but it ends up that dad jokes, is the ultimate burden of our society. bless

Will kids raised by lesbian women get stuck in an infinite loop of “go ask your mother”?
my english teacher used to collect street signs until her students began to steal them for her
like they stole a street sign
that said the street name
they also stole a stop sign in front of this loop in front of my school
and all 100 kids were like stealing signs
my english teacher was the head of a crime ring
I bet the principal didn’t want to believe it…
even though all the signs were there
get out
…this is possibly the best mistake I’ve *ever* found.
First, as the bad guy falls, the motion tracking of his face is a frame out of sync with his head…

…making it look a little something…

…like this.
But that’s not all. Ohhhh no.
They also forgot to delete the facial loop when he’s upside-down…

…making him have his own screaming face…

…materialize out of his butt and fly off into the starry night, presumably returning to its home world.
Majestic. Truly, a wonder to behold.
yesterday i saw this billboard at the train station and it threw me for a loop man
it was so weird seeing the setup flipped; where the women are the ones in loose, professional clothing striking intense poses wearing intense expressions
and then there is one man in an elegant, formfitting outfit with a strict pose and attractively neutral expression with a cutesy hand gun and generally unsuitable equipment solely for eye candy
