Let’s Get Weird: April 21
It’s Friday, you don’t have a job, and alcohol is readily available in the United States of America, so let’s get weird.
I’m in the middle of a freelance writer recruitment round that you may have noticed is underway right now. Writing samples are stacking up and I’m going through all of them myself. I will read yours, eventually. I will read all of them. If you’re good, I want you. This is also why I didn’t do a Commenter of the Week this week. I apologize for that. I’ll get it back on track next week.
We sadly had to say goodbye to Intern Craig this week. He, like former intern Denis, flew too close to the sun. He came, I destroyed him in a football long toss competition, then he had to leave. Sad.
What are we getting into this weekend?
Well O.J. Simpson was found not guilty.
8 years ago at 2:07 pmWhat year do you think it is?
8 years ago at 2:12 pmLarry Bird is also having a hell of a season.
8 years ago at 2:21 pmGood gravy, man.
8 years ago at 2:27 pmDorn has a bush
8 years ago at 2:07 pm3 Motions for TFM to Consider:
1) Doing something for the BOTD comments. If it needs to be a separate article, so be it. As it is right now is too damn confusing.
2) Blackballing certain trolls on the site. We all know who they are (vaginator, nazi kid, etc) and it’s legitimately taking away from the otherwise decent satire and softcore porn we’ve come to love from here.
3) Bring back Bacon, or kill Wally.
8 years ago at 2:11 pmPretty sure nazi kid is gone finally
8 years ago at 2:14 pmLook below. Guess you did nazi that coming
8 years ago at 2:15 pmWhere’s Andrew’sMom’sAss when you need him/her?
8 years ago at 2:21 pmNazi jokes are out of mein kampfort zone! Ha ha I’m going to put that on Facebook!
8 years ago at 2:24 pmThis is the best thing I’ve seen all week.
8 years ago at 2:34 pmYou’re one of the fucks that needs backballed
8 years ago at 9:03 pmIf need be, make the BOTD article visible only to signed-in users. That sort of minimizes the number of people who can get offended by the shit we say.
8 years ago at 10:19 amThat is, the article with no photos that exists for the sole purpose of commenting.
8 years ago at 10:20 amRyan Young is thevaginator
8 years ago at 2:11 pmWith a name like that, he sounds like treasurer of Quidditch club at his high school
8 years ago at 2:20 pmNo way anyone was desperate enough to make him president of anything.
8 years ago at 3:10 pmYou think he actually found someone to join his club?
8 years ago at 3:46 pmYou mean Allan?
8 years ago at 4:53 pmThat guy with the tee in his mouth doesn’t have a brain in his head, or he’s about to.
8 years ago at 2:13 pmIf anyone needs a bonus babe of the day, I stumbled across Sophia Shaver on Instagram yesterday. Holy shit she’s worth a look.
8 years ago at 2:14 pmAryan athlete. Can’t go wrong.
8 years ago at 2:23 pmI wanna hear some opinions on this: are memes frat? Please discuss.
8 years ago at 2:14 pmPepe is FAF
8 years ago at 2:15 pmI would say no, memes are for high schoolers
8 years ago at 2:22 pm*nerds
8 years ago at 10:25 amMemes make girls wet.
8 years ago at 9:04 pmI think it’s ok to use memes in certain circumstances and enjoying them is a personal preference. But they arent inherently frat i.e. You can’t add fratness to something with a meme. But it’s fine to take something frat and use a meme with it.
8 years ago at 12:59 pmJust as long it’s not excessive use and you’re not making them
8 years ago at 3:44 pmSieg heil!
8 years ago at 2:14 pmWill you fuck off already?
8 years ago at 2:16 pmNEIN! Wir Mussen die ADOcoon Ausrotten !
8 years ago at 2:30 pmIn other news from the Upper Midwest, this weekend is Grand Prix here and Little 5 at IU. The state of Indiana may run out of alcohol
8 years ago at 2:17 pmEspecially considering what Pacers fans are going through.
8 years ago at 3:18 pmI have an awkward situation. Went out with a girl from a sorority we often pregame with. We get completely smashed and go back to my apartment. She decides she wants to go home and gets her keys to drive. I try to stop her from getting behind the wheel (offering to instead get her an uber, she’s so drunk she can’t remember her address) and she goes total psycho and calls her sisters who then (also drunk) accuse me of trying to hold her there. I thought it would blow over but another guy in the chapter told me that he heard it from his girlfriend, who wasn’t there, so I assume it’s spread through the whole sorority.
Was I in the wrong here? And am I basically blacklisted from the whole sorority at this point?
8 years ago at 2:21 pmYou were doing the right thing by trying to prevent her from driving. However, you are semi-blacklisted. If there’s one thing drunk bitches do not realize, it is some of the stupid conclusions they draw when they are drunk. Get with your brothers and figure out who are the down-to-earth girls in that sorority. Make one of them your ally by telling her you feel bad about scaring your friend, and explain your true intentions. That should work to mitigate the stupidity inevitably spreading throughout certain parts of that house.
8 years ago at 2:26 pmYou saved this girl from at best, a possible DUI and at worst, killing someone with her car, a DUI, and her future ruined. Own the fact that you were a consummate gentleman. RFM
8 years ago at 2:29 pmExactly. Sit her down, talk to her. If she’s still a bitch about then she’s dead set on being a bitch and there’s not much you can do. But you weren’t in the wrong.
8 years ago at 3:17 pmIn terms of improving/repairing relations with the sorority you may want to try and talk to we when you’re both sober. Been said about the decision to not let her drive.
8 years ago at 2:31 pmYou were right. Don’t let anyone drink and drive. It’s not worth it. If you’re blacklisted by the whole sorority, so be it. Someone could have lost a life. You’ll just have to chase poon at a different house for a couple years – pretty small trade off.
8 years ago at 3:53 pmAnd don’t EVER apologize. Every drunk is an asshole, just a fact. But if someone sober is mad someone else prevented them driving drunk, then they’re just a selfish piece of shit.
