I’m sorry for this one. I know it’s in poor taste. O0


lmao it's actually in great taste.


It is if you are on a certain side of the issue.



If you're on the transgenderism-is-real side, wouldn't it warm your heart to see this chart?


You need to amplify your question for me to respond.

He said amplify (a sound thing), not magnify (a visual thing). ;D ;D ;D Actually, just kidding. I couldn't resist. >:D

Though the sound context is one of more known uses for the word ..... I was using it in the manner of this definition:

enlarge upon or add detail to (a story or statement):
"the notes amplify information contained in the statement"

I'm still not getting anything (the point, intent) from your initial question.

It might predate this meme thread. You posed an image from the movie Alien. No one knew what it was. You explained it- it was a still showing the characters *before* the baby Alien came out through a guy’s stomach.

EDIT: but regarding your new one, I have stumbled upon it- an Australian olympic breakdancer* named Rachael Gunn aka raygun.

I’ve seen Matrix enough to know that she’s dodging a bullet like Neo.

I feel dirty just putting those two words together.

Oooooooooh, that rings a bell.

I think I posted that because I was alluding to something bad that was about to happen, but hadn't yet happened.

Really hits home how long I've been on this forum lol.

That’s got to be the tsunami that happened in the aughts in Japan. I can hear George Takei in my head teaching Howard Stern to pronounce the t instead of lazily saying ‘sunami’.

When I was 20 years old I worked in a chicken factory.

One time the boxes of chicken fell over in the freezer and were spilling on to the floor.

I remember my boss telling me to hurry up and fix them before the USDA inspector came around to see them.
