u/traverseda [+5] With dread but cautious optimism*
"You know you're a redneck if..." Combined with rationalist memes and horror.
u/Transfuturist [+10] Carthago delenda est.*
You abandon a sunk cost. You didn’t want to. It’s crying. ...Oh.
u/ArgentStonecutter [+3] Emergency Mustelid Hologram*
It is the singularity. You have one brain, one eye, one finger, one testicle, one foot, one toe, one ovary, one, one, one, one, one....
u/PeridexisErrant [+1] put aside fear for courage, and death for life*
