  • I got pulled over in Germany with weed from Amsterdam in the car (I’m an American, visiting my friend). I’m leaving the country the next day, I show them my plane ticket, so instead of giving me a ticket, they have us follow them to an ATM instead and give them 200€. They take my weed, my brand new bubbler, and most of my remaining money. All I was left with was this story.

    Another time, was camping with friends for a week. We have an ounce with us, at the time a big problem if we got caught. We’re on day 1 of 7, sitting on the tailgate of my car, smoking a one hitter and eating PBJs. Cop wheels around the corner, catches us. Started searching my car, I have no fuckin clue where my buddy stashed the bag. I’m sweating bullets. Cop tears the car apart looking for what he knows must be there, but finds nothing. Eventually leaves us with a minor ticket and takes our grinder and our piece. Immediately after he leaves I turn to my friend “where the fuck is the weed!?!” He’s laughing hysterically, lifts up the loaf of bread that was sitting right next to us on the tailgate the entire time, it’s just chilling there in plain sight.









  • Looks like the Nazis doing their usual schtick. All 15 of them, lol.

    About 15 people wearing clothing and bearing flags emblazoned with Nazi insignia demonstrated outside the entrance to the Disney Springs shopping center

    What I don’t understand is why we give these fucks any air time. Don’t counter protest. Don’t cover it in the news. Just let them be sad and angry about their pathetic lives.

    Imagine for a moment how different these events would be if literally no one showed up to fuel their hate speech. No one yelling at them, or holding protest signs, just an empty parking lot. It would really take the air out of that whole “rally” part of it, wouldn’t it? It’s hard to keep up the energy of an event like that when there’s no one to be angry at and feed back into it.


  • No, it’s a great analogy. For the purposes of electrical conductivity, the gender of the socket is really just an expression of the cultural norms where they were made. There are hundreds of different socket genders, and you can easily convert one type to another depending on what you want to accomplish. Sounds like they’re really just advocating for gender affirming care.



  • Assuming you plug it into the same receptacle or one that is on the same phase, nothing happens. Stupid for sure, don’t do that, but it’s already wired that way in the wall, you aren’t short circuiting anything with a cable like that (also assuming you didn’t mix up the neutral/hot wires when you made the cable). USA outlets at least. I don’t know about the rest of the world.





  • That and it’s usually hosted off some slow ass, janky website where I hit refresh three times to get all the assets to load without timing out.

    “Uhh, yes, I’ll have the 404 not found, dressing on the side, with a 504 gateway timeout, medium rare. Oh, and could we get a round of 500 internal server error for the table, please?”
