Making the rounds in April 2019 is the context-less capture of a biology course slide that lists similarities between a fetus and cancer. The spin zone is currently at the ready to condemn it, by interpreting that the course is teaching students “how much a fetus is like cancer.” (Original Tweet) Possibly the worst element […]

A fired cleaning lady is dismayed. A fired magician is disillusioned. A fired pig farmer is disgruntled. A fired shepherd is deflocked. Who else can add a reaction to how someone was fired?

I recently came across the following puzzle: Which one has two zero and two four? (A) 0024 (B) 2024 (C) 0044 ..and after posing it to several friends and seeing their arguments, I came up with my own answer: Since the question is unattributed, and I could find no particular original source for the puzzle, […]

Here is one example of someone complaining about it, who doesn’t realize how […]

Simply take any song you can think of with the following words in the title, and replace with a Star Wars word similar: Baby / Boba, Obi Moon / That’s No Moon Dark / Darth Woke, Walk(-ing), Talk-, Rock- / Ewok(ing), Tarkin, Porkins, (sky)Walk Look / Luke Lay A / Leia F***ing / Falcon Smoke […]
