"Fuck off kid!!!" by nopascaloumain videos

Fuck yeah I'm using this as my new super secret buddy handshake.

Because of this by Retsejmein creativecrowdsource

[–]othermatt 5 points6 points ago

I might as well pass on some ideas I had been playing around with but never really did anything with. I might still have some logos and artfiles I started if people dig the idea.

Anyway, the idea was to invent a company called OverCorp that was specifically setup to provide innocuous propaganda (For example I created a sticker that said "Everything is OK!" and then in legalese size text below it said "This message is a public service announcement brought to you by OverCorp. Your propaganda company."

From there I came up with the idea of having overcorp create a self actualization fraternity that promoted better living through increased conformity. I called it the Conformist United Labor Troops or C.U.L.T. I thought it would be fun to create stickers that said things like join the C.U.L.T. or sell t-shirts that said I'm a C.U.L.T. member.

Another thing I've always wanted to do is to create an ARG style prank on the web but go for the long con on it. (Similar to ONG's hat ) I mean start setting up fake websites for fake corps, fake wiki entires, fake blogs who are antagonistic against the fake corps. And have it be this whole deep convoluted conspiracy that may or may not go back to renaissance times. Something that Dan Brown would dream he could write about, something that would make Robert Anton Wilson turn over in his grave and smile. The only problem is that I could never figure out what the payoff would be.

Anyway, something along those lines might be cool.

Awesome subreddit btw.

What are some boyfriend/girlfriend/relationship hacks? Example from my girlfriend inside. (Potentially NSFW?) by cjknjknin AskReddit

[–]othermatt 0 points1 point ago

Word of caution friend. My father has one of the worst memories of anyone I know. He copes by making lists of things he needs to remember. When I was younger he used to have to pick up my mother from work, but he was so scatter brained he would get distracted and forget until it was too late. So the natural thing to do was for him to put her on his list.

This worked out great... until she found his lists. In her eyes, she should have been important enough to him to not need a reminder. She might have been right if he was a equipped with a fully functional memory. But sadly, his memory was just not up to the task. (For fuck's sake he put things like eat lunch on his list and she was always at the top, underlined twice.). I wish I could have told her that she was being a bitch and it was like getting mad at him for not being able to see her clearly without wearing his glasses, but I was only four at the time. Anyway, after much shitstorm ensued and many missed pickups due to him trying to remember without his lists; she finally figured it out:

It wasn't that she wasn't important enough to be remembered without being on a list, she was so import that she was at the top of his list of most important things.

Anyway, the point of this little anecdote is that people do not always react rationally when it comes to matters of the heart and perceived slights. Be wary of the her finding out until you can think of the perfect way to frame it that shows her real importance to you.

Which is more energy efficient? A roof painted black to save on the energy costs in the winter, or to paint a roof white to save the energy costs in the summer. by turduckenstanin askscience

[–]othermatt 2 points3 points ago

I think it's based on the idea that the Heat Island effect reduces the amount of energy needed to heat houses in the winter. However, as lurrker pointed out below, the study didn't take into account the savings gained from lowering the amount of energy need to cool a house in the summer.

Reddit, what do you currently have copied? ctrl+v now! by airjam21in AskReddit

From the image it looks like the stock calculator has a % button which is something that neither iOS nor Android does.

Feel free to extrapolate from that thought.

Reddit, what is it like to be a white person? by redbullandvodka0in AskReddit

[–]othermatt 0 points1 point ago

You know, I'm married to a Filipina woman and the topic of my family feeling awkward in a myriad of social situations that her family does not is one of constant discussion. I never considered it from the perspective of awkwardness being the natural state of whiteness before. Interesting food for thought.

Throwaway time: what is the one illegal, immoral, criminal, or disgusting thing you've always wanted to do or try? by AmericanDerpin AskReddit

I recently rented a Crown Vic for a road trip. I fucking loved that car. It's pure mustache.

Anyone else smoke out of one of these? by siftingflourin trees

[–]othermatt 1 point2 points ago

Last time I smoked out of one of these I was really drunk as well. I ended up blacking out for like 4 hours but remained conscious. I came too and I was sitting on a couch. I started asking around about what I had been doing for the last 4 hours...

Turns out I was pretty much sitting on the couch the entire time.

CCOKC (pronounced "cock") - A Video From Child Celebrities Opposing Kirk Cameron - YouTube by FatherFartboxin atheism

[–]othermatt 7 points8 points ago

I can't help but wonder what his reaction will be when he sees this. I think he'll be outwardly offended especially if he sees it with people around. But inwardly? Maybe he'll be slightly amused. Maybe in the wee hours of the night, after he tucks his bible neatly into bed on it's special holy pillow; he start thinking about ccokc and how much he enjoyed watching a video of nothing but ccokc.

Eventually, thoughts of ccokc will start to invade his mind durring normal waking hours. When he's taking a shower, thoughts about ccokc. When he's stuck in traffic, more ccokc. Pretty soon, all of his thoughts will be about ccock. At some point he'll become obsessed with ccokc, like a junkie and he'll start measuring his days in minutes between getting his ccokc fix.

Eventually, the pressure will build inside him leading up to a tremendous climax and someday, if we're lucky, we'll see a video of him standing on top of a bell tower shouting out his love of ccokc to the world. "I can't hold it inside me anymore. I love ccokc! Ccokc for everyone!! Let's all get more ccokc in our lives!"

What a wonderful day that will be.

Drunk Guy Rage by mylomusicin fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu

You know what? you're right. Today I went up to my female coworker and said "You look like you have a nice vagina." She was so flattered that she told my boss and now I'm about to go have a meeting with HR to discuss my future at the company.

Have you ever almost been killed? by jqrd4nin AskReddit

[–]othermatt 737 points738 points ago

I can't help but imagine a scenario where the shirtless dude was not trying to attack you but was actually after something innocent.

Like maybe he woke up shirtless on your street, all confused as fuck wondering where the hell he was. So he lights up a cigarette to calm himself and consider his situation.

Then he sees you. OH shit, are you friend or foe? Better play it cool. You just walk right past him like he's not there. Cool, you're probably friendly. Maybe you can tell him where the fuck he is. Better catch up. Don't want to freak you out though so he'll walk up the other side of the street and wait for you to notice him before making contact.

You notice him. That's his cue. Time to cross the street and make contact. Oh fuck, what are you running for. Or rather, what are you running FROM? Shit, shit, shit, time to book it. He doesn't know where to go, might as well follow you.

Oh fuck, you turned off. Is it a trap? Can't be sure. Fuck it, just run. Just RUN.

Phew, been running for 20 minutes. Nothing happened. Nobody around. The fuck were you running for? Meh, you're probably just some junkie strung out on something. Ok, take a breather. Smoke another cig. Take a moment to analyze. Oh look, there's someone coming down the street. Maybe the know where the fuck he is.

Or, you could just have the show produce the commercials themselves. I'd watch the shit out of a commercial created by Dan Harmon and staring the cast of Community.

If Bruce Wayne became Batman because he was afraid of bats, what superhero will you become? by MrJozeffin AskReddit

[–]othermatt 0 points1 point ago

You should shorten it to just The Fear.

There's nothing to fear, except The Fear.

Your super power could be killing bad guys by turning them inside out, because that shit is pretty scary. Could you imagine someone turning you inside out? All your guts and shit will spill over everything, but you wouldn't even see it because your eyes would be facing the inside of your skull.

Not much worse than getting turned inside out.

Actually, I take that back. Your power should be turning people inside out and then pouring spiders all over them.

Yeah, that's worse.

There's nothing to fear, except The Fear because he will turn you inside out and then pour spiders all over you.

Yeah, I'd buy that comic.
