Go on YouTube and watch videos where people remove the laugh track. It's super awkward and weird.

Oh, he’s a raging ass. I also still listen to Michael Jackson and Kid Rocks first album. If I’m listening to music all I care about is the music. Is Kevin Spacey being a pedo supposed to make me not like Se7en?

Pink Floyd. Diverse and extensive catalog and something for every mood.

Reply to comment by jiraiya_myoboku in want to work at nasa but math is not my strong suit, any tips? by jiraiya_myoboku
So, quick story, I was a UAV operator for 14 years. I spent five years flying for the Army and the rest as a contractor. Anyway, I used to fly with a guy that absolutely hated our job. Eventually he got so fed up with it that he sold his house and moved to bumf**k Texas to get his A&P license to become an airplane mechanic.
His first job out of A&P school? Reassembling Falcon 9 rockets for SpaceX.
You just never know where life is going to take you. Just enjoy the ride.

Not everyone at NASA is a rocket scientist. There are people that manage the rocket scientists and keep them within budget. There are people that assemble and fuel the rockets. There are administration people that write letters and emails about the rockets. There are historians that write about the old rockets and public relations folks that talk about the new rockets.
If working at NASA is your goal, you have an incredible amount of options. Also: math is stupid.

Vice City was a classic.
TIL Tom Brady was drafted by the Montreal Expos baseball team while still in high school, but instead chose to play football in college. This technically makes him the last player drafted by the Expos still playing professional sports.

Tom Morello (Rage Against The Machine/Audioslave) has a degree from Harvard, and is a prominent social activist.
Greg Graffin (Bad Religion) has a PhD from Cornell in zoology and is a guest lecturer at UCLA when not on tour.
Edit: While he lacked much formal education, Lemmy was a prolific reader who was known to always be reading something, and was apparently well versed in WWII history specifically. Ozzy Osbourne once said that Lemmy crashed at his house for a week and he "drank all my booze, snorted all my coke, and read all my books."

I’ve watched enough House to know that it’s probably Lupus.

Not a single person has said "Phony Calls" by Weird Al yet.
Shame on you all. It's literally a song about making phone calls.

I didn't say that. I just said that, thus far, biodegradable components in electronics have not worked out very well.
Reading comprehension is important.
_Abe_Froman_SKOC t1_ixuo0dj wrote
Yes, because biodegradable electrical components have worked so well in the past.

That Lou Reed collaboration album with Metallica. Woof.
Metallica has dropped a few stinkers over the years, but Lou Reed was usually consistently excellent.

Reply to TIL that the "Lost City of Atlantis" was invented by the philosopher Plato, as a fake enemy for Athens that lost favour of the gods and was sunk in to the sea. by PDRugby
There's another story that Aristotle (student of Plato) used the story of Atlantis during his education of Alexander the Great. He used the story as a parable to teach that all glory, no matter how great, was fleeting and could vanish at any time.

True. But it also illustrates if the jokes are funny or not. And a lot of BBTs jokes fell pretty flat.
