That phoned-in actor is Eric Roberts, less than five years after The Dark Knight.

He says he has no regrets taking so many roles, but part of me can’t help but think he was one of those actors who took Ned Beatty’s advice to never turn down work, which was fine in the 70s, but is not as true in the 2000s and beyond, when anyone can grab a camera, After Effects, and make… this.

It does look very riffable and I think I’ve seen a couple vids making fun of it, but for me that reveal of the mouth animation is the most hilarious thing ever.

Hey there

One experience I had with an anesthesiologist was pretty much them putting the mask on me, a moment or so passes and I ask "wait, aren't you gonna ask me to count down from 10 or something?" and the guy was like "...what? oh, right, uh, sure... countdown from 10 or whatever." "10-- zzzzzzzzzzzz"

outsmarted

I had a roommate once ask me to come with him to buy a $40 table he found off Craigslist.

We show up, they show him the table.
"k I'm all ready to take this home, the thing is... I only have $20."

Motherfucker brought me in just to help pressure them into his haggling.
I mean yes it worked, but I was so goddamn uncomfortable. I have no idea what happened to him/we haven't kept in touch, but it sadly wouldn't surprise me if he was some god awful CEO.

Useful Life Skills [extra fabulous]

And then I’ll remind you that it’s well within most governments’ capabilities to do their citizens taxes for them. Also any for-profit service you use to do your taxes uses the money you give them to lobby the government to keep the tax system this way. Also your taxes are getting used for unfathomable crimes, and there’s no paper trail or audit done to them to prove your tax dollars are going where you’d like them to.

Boot-lickin' good

boy howdy I tell ya what, that is some quality rage bait: the ai art, the annoying expression, the “fun fact” prefix, the idea that you have to stay home to not get shot. I felt my blood pressure rise just at first glance, and y’know what? I wish them dead; I wish whoever posted that horrible meme would die.

But that’s silly of me to feel after reading such a brief post; I shouldn’t be able to shift from 0 to third gear like that, it’s not good for my health. That just goes to show how rage inducing that god dang post is.

Now I’m gonna go take a breather. A good 10 minute walk should do.

Suspicious

It’s just a box that so happens to let you proceed if the string supplied in its field is your password. There’s no question mark involved so it’s not a question.

Dab on it, your honor.

How much brainrot can you handle

As long as it doesn’t make the employees’ day harder/they had a head’s up, then uhhh rock on 🤙

I had to stop so may “pranks” as an usher at the movie theater because they were too disruptive.

One guy came in and was cool about it, “what’s the deadest hour I can do something in your lobby? we won’t hurt anyone and just want to be silly.” and we let him; he just dressed up like a pigeon and pecked at popcorn people would spill, sometimes out of shock when they saw him.

This one looks pretty harmless/the employees were chill with it based on one of the being silly enough to try and kick ‘em.
