Is this a real ad ?
I feel like it would work well as one. We probably need more of it; that kind of “Intentional bad messaging” that gets people angry at the thing being advertised.
A tweet claims a billboard with Elon Musk’s photo that reads “Defend billionaires” can be seen outdoors. But the sign is not real. It is the digital artwork of designer Martin Sprouse, and the image was published on Sprouse’s Instagram account the month before it spread on Twitter.
This is one of the best types of social media comment. Thank you.
Danke für die Info Ü
You're welcomo
...are you taking credit for someone else's helpful comment, or did you forget which sockpuppet you were driving today?
I'm referencing a line from scrubs...
Well, that's certainly better than either of my guesses!
I'd ask why, but that would be facetious of me - I damn well know I do the same thing from time to time.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Episode is "my common enemy". The BBEG gives his Spanish English dictionary to a doctor he is trying to get to not sue him, his Spanish English dictionary claiming he "mastered the language". She responds in Spanish, and he says what you read me type.
Dr. Cox? Dr. Kelso? The janitor? 🤔
Not sure which one is the true Big Bad Evil Guy.
Kelso, it was the psych dr that, spoilers, jd dated. Good episode.
Yes, They Live is a real movie and it’s fan-fuckin’-tastic. Definitely need to watch.
