  • Irish people were forced to eat potatoes because they were subjugated by british lords who took everything else they farmed. When the potato “famine” happened, they were actually still producing plenty of other food, just that the British lords didnt care and still forced them to hand it over.

    Admittedly this is the extent of my knowledge on the situation, so you should look it up yourself if you want to know more.

    The “Joke” at the irish guy in the greentext is actually pretty insensitive and rude, much moreso than asking a german why he didnt order sauerkraut.

    Potatoes aren’t even native to Ireland.


  • I once a applied for a job that said C# .NET in the title, the requirements listed embedded systems programming qualifications, and their automated hiring thing gave me a little “aptitude test” asking questions for a tech support role. Literally one of the questions was if I would be able to install antivirus software on other employees’ computers.


  • I am 100% cis straight man; I have been dressed up in drag more than once in my life and even went out in public with it. Its fun! Getting to wear pretty and cute outfits and whatnot.10/10 would do again.

    So I totally know where Bugs is coming from in this and it is NO indication of his self-identity.

    My family is an anomaly. We all get a long splended, holiday dinners are a real treat now that we’re all adults and have spread out because we rarely all appear in one location at the same time for any other occasion anymore. We have a longstanding Thanksgiving tradition and its allways full of laughter and joy, never any arguing!

    Years ago before any of us had kids, the 5 of us who are into videogames all played league of legends together as a team and had a blast.

    I am the middle child of 7, including a step sister 1 year younger than me who is objectively hot AF. I don’t get it either. Never had anything even close to sexual feelings towards any of them despite developing sexual urges and desires very young.
