why do i hate that artist thing that people keep posting on my facebook so much? why am i such a jerk?

what is even that about leftover roast chicken? is that a thing?

Yeah that's weird. But what is a tuckshop?

A tuck shop is a small, food-selling retailer.[1] It is a term principally used in the UK, Ireland, Grenada, South Africa, New Zealand, Jamaica, Sri Lanka, Australia, Pakistan, and occasionally in other parts of the former British Empire.[2] In New South Wales, the term is interchangeable with the word canteen.

When the tuck shop is in a school, it is frequently the only place (other than the school canteen) where monetary transactions can be made. As such, particularly in the UK, they often sell items of stationery too, although food is still their primary source of income and customers. In Australia at both youth clubs and schools the tuck shop is mainly staffed by volunteers from the community, which may include students, parents and, in the case of clubs, members. The term is also used in Indian boarding schools. In Canada, summer camps often have tuck shops for the same reason, to allow campers to buy small items while away from home.

HOW DID WE SURVIVE

5. Our only "tuck shop" was called the School Store.

Ah, thanks!

I almost feel like Grohl is being made more grumpy than he is! He's this weird rockist thing ppl project things onto

That's an honest Grohl quote.

He doesn't always come off that rockist though. I remember from his Maron interview he had a digression about how he liked disco.

Re.: faux nostalgia nuts, I like the term "pastopians."

Any "in my day, we only had three TV channels" stuff automatically triggers thoughts of the Monty Python "Four Yorkshiremen" sketch.

House? You were lucky to have a HOUSE! We used to live in one room, all hundred and twenty-six of us, no furniture.

You were lucky to have a ROOM! *We* used to have to live in a corridor!

Ohhhh we used to DREAM of livin' in a corridor!

Well when I say 'house' it was only a hole in the ground covered by a piece of tarpolin, but it was a house to US.

We were evicted from *our* hole in the ground; we had to go and live in a lake!

You were lucky to have a LAKE! There were a hundred and sixty of us living in a small shoebox in the middle of the road.

all the best kids got run over and were fat

Fuck off is tuck shop used here

Grohl is acting like his music ain't full of the same shitty cliches. Just not his butt

What was "Big Me" about then?

Irl lols

It was January 1968, the winter after the Summer of Love. The Tet Offensive was grabbing headlines all over the nation. The #1 song on the Billboard Hot 100? It damn well wasn't about someone's butt! It was a tender ballad titled "Judy in Disguise (With Glasses)", by John Fred and His Playboy Band. We didn't consider it a problem.

If you enjoyed Spotlight, you might also enjoy fucking choirboys

if you liked mad max: fury road you may enjoy restoring classic automobiles.

if you liked the revenant you might also like freezing to death drowning in a lake.

Feel like I'm in humorless scold mode here, but lots of people also posting this:

I mean, hilars photo obviously (cock!!!), but my first thought was, er, did you get consent from those two teenagers to put their photo next to your lame dick jokes?

Slopey pic link is wise.

me 7 years ago: quit posting all these pix of your kids and vacation photos on facebook
me now: almost all i can stand on facebook (with the exception of Ned ILX-threads-that-aren't-on-ILX-posts) is pix of litte kids and beaches

I'm turning into one of those people who post pictures of their kids, but never themselves.

That's real safe, right?

I have made a rule for myself that I need to (roughly) alternate. I have to come up with a genuine non-throwaway non-kid-related post for every kid-related post. I don't know if that makes me more annoying or less annoying as a friend, but there it is.

Family members always SAY they are clamoring for more kid material, but one never knows whether that's how they feel or just one of those Things One Says. Meanwhile I want to broadcast the message to childless amigos that that's not the only thing I have going on in my life.

But really, small children DO require a big chunk of your time and energy and attention, if you're doing it right (and in my case, the whole special-needs thing is a mega-time-suck). It would be dishonest of me to present my life as a string of concerts, cocktails, clubs, and trading bon mots with the glitterati.

If my choices are "accurately reflect your experience" and "don't post pictures of kids at the beach," the result would be silence.

always down w/ pics of kids and babies but most especially pets

clickhole and to a lesser extent garlic bread memes and this thread i guess make most of the garbage survivable

...garlic bread...memes?

most memes i completely ignore, but yesterday some guy i don't know but am nevertheless "friends" with on facebook posted a picture of dr. king with text where "dr. king" upbraids black people for voting for clinton instead of sanders. my god it is the most horrible thing ever. am strongly tempted to make some comment on it re: posthumously baptizing anne frank, but i don't know the guy well enough to get into a fight over it, and i don't care about it enough to actually unfriend him over it. it just bugs the shit out of me, is all.

one of my black-sheep conservative cousins (who i haven't put on ignore yet) posted a "socialist monopoly" meme. which is profoundly dumb because the original idea for monopoly came from socialists making a board game to explain why capitalism sucked. sigh. i usually stay out of these things because the rest of my relatives can be generally relied upon to cow them into submission but in this case i couldn't help but explain the history of "the landlord's game".

i've been trying to combat all the political bs by only posting nice things about my friends (i've moved all the self promo over to another page). it's hard! but rewarding!

lately i pretty much just spam people with retro photos from the year 2000 and click like when people are doing something that makes them happy or gets the certification they've been working toward or whatever. almost everybody who posts conservative BS got unfriended or unfollowed a long time ago. it's an okay time over there.

I've been getting the same suggested ad for two weeks for a "Paid constipation" study with an accompanying animation that shows a drawing of human insides.

fucking why

probably all the cheese burritos i'd guess
