A rare instance of Daisy finally getting all of her energy out.

Why yes, I was born in 1988 but luckily when I first started making usernames in middle school, I decided to use the random number 45 in them instead. Yup, good old 45, nothing awful or related to white supremacists associated with that number... Sigh.

I'm not really a Dark Souls guy, so at first I thought this was about Hayao Miyazaki, cuz he likes big ladies too.

Some people say about Trump, "I like him because he's brave enough to say what we're all thinking". I say that about this translator.

I think whether I was a fruit or not, I wouldn't want to operate with the assumption that I'm going to be eaten, so scientific categories all the way. As a human, I like to think of myself as a mammal/ape/homo sapien/whatever instead of wondering which parts of me are white meat vs dark meat.

I personally really enjoy how David and the skeletons either can't out won't elaborate on the parts of their whole thing that the people are confused about. There's just something funny to me about how it doesn't seem like they're intentionally being obtuse. They'll gladly answer the vague question of "and the skeletons are...?" with the equally vague "part of it!" with a big smile, as though it was a perfectly fine and helpful answer.

Hey Wayne, did you ever find Bugs Bunny attractive when he put on a dress and played a girl bunny?

To give the original question answer slightly more (probably unfounded) credit, there are a lot of people out there who know the basics of what inflation is, but also seem to have a fundamental assumption that in a "normal" economy, wages will also increase at the same pace as inflation, resulting in a net zero effect on a person's buying power overall. Even though, yes, things are always getting a little more expensive in absolute terms, they don't seem more expensive. So the answer to the question someone with those assumptions might have actually been trying to ask is that even if inflation returns to a "normal" rate, wages have remained stagnant for a long time and aren't keeping pace with inflation like they used to, so now things actually are more expensive in a relative sense.

That doesn't make it any less true.

Lucky we caught on before humans ate them to extinction. Scientists haven't always been so lucky.

That's "Lisa" performing the "I Want Candy" song as part of "The Simpson Family Smile-Time Variety Hour", which itself was part three of "The Simpsons Spin-Off Showcase" episode.
