When my old man was little the local tobacco company would give you 50 penni for every rat tail you brought in.

It didn't take long for some kid to realise the best source of rat tails was the dumpster behind the tobacco factory.

They planted two plum trees and one cherry tree. I picked so many plums this year. Still have a bunch on the freezer ready to go in pies. Made two batches of slivovice moonshine back in the fall just so they wouldn't go to waste.

When I was a kid, we played pacman. A literal puck who eats pixels and takes turns chasing ghosts. We turned out fine.

It's not like that's what caused us to go to rave parties, listen to beepy music and pop ecstacy pills.

Gee, I can't imagine why they chose to drop this bomb today.

It's like they wanted it to be drowned in other news.

The theorem holds true. The theorem states that the monkey has infinite time, not just the lifetime of our universe.

That's just lazy science to change the conditions to make sensational headlines. Bad scientists!

The contributor above works at Baikal Electronics, which are a defense supplier in/for Russia, and therefore sanctioned.

The Linux Foundation is based in the US and have to bide by those sanctions.

My library has a banned book clubs for teenagers.

Books don't get banned in my country, but they read and discuss books that are banned in other countries.

Also, you can check out a kill-a-watt to monitor your electricity consumption.

Huh, this vegan dog shampoo has not been tested on animals.

I feel like that's the one product they should test on animals so that my dog doesn't have to be the guinea pig.
