@cstross An decrease of the number of hemoroides in the general population?

A new dawn for kids searching for porn mags in bushes.

A new generation of walkman-like, dumb devices for consuming media on the go.

@sinvega @fesshole artisan AND handmade.
As opposed to the pancakes the rest of us makes, using our trusted coal powered PanCakeoMatic 3000.

It varies.
It's a joke often lost in coloration. Scrooge McDuck is the world's richest duck partly because he is so miserly he saves every penny he ever touches. In the original prints the content of the money bin were often more white and brown than yellow to show his cash was mostly nickels, quarters and pennies.

Ofc this was never consistent, even Barks sometimes depicted the money bin filled with gold coins because it was more visually pleasing.

@fesshole that you, Toobin? They did indeed watch the recording.

@anon_opin Jimmy. Jeffrey. Adolf.

Always better, eh?

@anon_opin it's mainly to show that the bed hasn't been slept in.

A better question to ask is why some hotels don't use proper duvet covers, but use several layers of sheets instead?

@anon_opin you realise you can bake smaller loaves?
@anon_opin neither Carolyn Keene or Franklin W Dixon were ever real, so calm down, Kenneth.
@fesshole ouch.
I grew up in elk country, and remember people keeping knives or small axes in their cars to euthanise elk and other wildlife in case their were accidents.
@jon fun joke premise ruined by the fact that it is a still frame from a series of identical sora slop videos using the exact same setup, just with variations of the characters involved. The clips usually end the same way, with one or both of the news anchors unconvincingly falling of their chairs in shock.
