Someone’s impersonating the CEO and trying to get me to send him a thousand dollars’ worth of gift cards and I gotta say this is the most exciting thing to happen to me in months
He stopped responding after I requested that he fill out a funding request form with the proper client ID codes attached. Idk what he expected trying to scam a corporate office swimming in red tape
“Julia…I’m the penniless CEO…you have to pay me..you have to pay me in gift cards”
“I’m…not doing that”
“AND JUST LET HIM FUCKING DIE?”
This is the funniest fucking addition and I dont know anything about this franchise
i think a lot of people hear the word ‘roadrunner’ and associate it immediately with the looney tunes character but uh. real roadrunners actually manage to look even stranger than the cartoon?
Before my parents married my dad worked at a national guard base in Arizona that basically consisted of a bunch of “office buildings” made up of clusters of those long, thin pre-fab style tube houses. In the afternoons if it wasn’t too hot the guys in his building would open the doors on either end to get a breeze through. Apparently a local roadrunner took this as an open invitation and started coming in to “inspect” the offices each day/use the long hallway as an indoor runway. He go up and down the hallway stopping at each desk to see if anyone had anything tasty for him and then wander back out the other end and go about his roadrunner day. If they didn’t open the doors right away he’d just be hanging out, waiting outside the building until someone let him in. They are apparently highly curious (and also incredibly trusting) birds.
this just made me so happy thank you for sharing your story
i can never think about tumblr staff without thinking about that article that was like “fashion of the people who run tumblr.com” and there was a guy wearing a tie as a belt
Concept: a robot character who’s just, like, hilariously nonchalant about physical peril because their “body” is a teleoperated drone and their mind is safely ensconced in a basement server room several miles away.
(Well, most of the time. Their usual body is disposable 3D-printed crap. They have a “good” body they bring out for special occasions, and they’re much more cautious when using that one – not in the “pain hurts” way, but in the “I’m wearing a really expensive pair of shoes” way.)
Fun and good thing to say to a mad gamer in their video game who is YELLING: “hey buddy its okay. its just a fun toy. We’re just playing with a fun toy together, okay?”
Y’all laugh, one time I told a guy on Reddit “It’s ok that you didn’t like the movie” about Star Wars and I have never seen someone get SO mad SO fast
Being nice to nerds is like spraying red musk into the eyes of a furious bull
