Cursed Images From The Rancid Pits Of The Underworld


Ah, yes, good old cursed images. Cursed images are one of those strange and unfortunate things that the vast and unpredictable online world seems to consistently cough up. If anything, cursed images are there as a reminder that life can always get a little bit more uncomfortable. The weirdest thing about cursed images as well is that they literally hurt to look at sometimes, but they're also so hard to look away from. If all this cursed craziness got you going, check out a collection of cursed food abominations over here.

Fun Informative Twitter Thread On Bathroom Breaks In Space


It's a lot easier said than done when it comes to taking a leak in outer space. I guess you'd expect nothing less. Everything seems to have an innate tendency to grow far more complicated as you drift further away from this particular rock that's flying through space. Mary Robinette Kowal provides an equally entertaining and informational Twitter thread on the backstory surrounding astronauts' experiences with trying to functionally use the restroom while on missions in outer space.

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Let's talk about peeing in space. Several people, in response to my NY Times essay, have said that women couldn't go into space because we lacked the technology for them to pee in space. 11:00 AM · Jul 19, 2019 ♡ 73.9K 31.2K people are Tweeting ab..

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ O @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette Launchpad delays meant that Shepherd hit a point where he needed to go. Badly. He asked Mission Control for permission to go in his suit. After consultation with flight surgeons & suit technicians, they gave him permission to do so. So he wet himself & still went into space. 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 ♡ 8.2K 423 people are Tweeting about ..

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette Later, they solved this problem by developing a sheath, that looked much like a condom. It worked great in testing, but when the actual astronauts used it, the sheath kept blowing off and leaving them with pee in their suits. Was this about extended time in the spacesuit? 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 ♡ 6.3K 330 people are Tweeting about ..

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette The sheaths came in smallI, medium, and large. It turns out, the men were all saying that they needed a Large sheath. They did not. Subsequently, the astronauts called the sheaths were called "Extra-large," "Immense," and "Unbelievable." 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 17.8K O 1.5K people are Tweeting abo..

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette They had to tape a bag to their ass to poop. That worked well for Gemini and Mercury. And by well, I mean there was still urine in the capsule and it stank of feces. Apollo needed a different solution. 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 6.4K 280 people are Tweeting about .

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette Alas, they stillI had to poop into a bag, but for peeing, they could slip on a condom attached to a valve, turn the valve and have their urine sucked into the vacuum of space. If you timed it right. 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 ♡ 5.9K O 238 people are Tweeting about .

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette Open the valve a fraction too late, and urine escaped to float around the cabin. Open it too early and the vacuum of space reached through the valve to grab your manhood. Apparently, the venting of pee into space is very pretty. It catches the sunlight and sparkles. 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 O 10.2K 682 people are Tweeting abou.

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette For the spacewalks, the Apollo astronauts were back to condoms that collected the pee in a bag in the suit. Buzz Aldrin was the second man on the moon, but the first to pee there. 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 O 10.8K O 1K people are Tweeting about .

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette During Apollo13, everyone who has seen the movie knows that Fred Haise got sick. Do you know why, though? After the accident, they couldn't use the regular vent, because it needed to be heated to keep the ре from freezing. 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 ♡ 5.2K O 224 people are Tweeting about .

12.

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette The alternate system caused droplets to float around the ship. Mission Control told them to stop dumping ре. It wasn't meant to be a permanent ban, but the crew didn't understand that. So they were stashing pee in every bag or container possible. 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 ♡ 5.2K O 203 people are Tweeting about .

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette The fastest option was to store it in the collection bags they wore in their suits.

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette Finally, a decade later, NASA decides to send women into space. NOW they have a reason to come up with how to handle peeing in space if you don't have a penis. To launch and for a spacewalk, they developed the MAG Maximum Absorbency Garment. It's a diaper. 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 8.4K 9 506 people are Tweeting about ..

15.

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette The men switched over to using those because it was more comfortable and less prone to leave pee floating around the cabin than the condom sheath. They also developed a zero-G toilet so that astronauts no longer had to tape a bag to their ass. 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 ♡ 6.7K O 300 people are Tweeting about .

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette Peeing or pooping in space is now a lengthy process, involving a fan, a targeting system, and a fair amount of prayer. Fun pooping in space fact: Without gravity, the poop doesn't break off as it exits your body. You have to reach back and help with special gloves. 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 10.1K O 1.3K people are Tweeting abo..

17.

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette Peeing is a little more straightforward. It's basically a funnel, a tube, a bag, and a fan for suction. Sometimes though, the toilet breaks down. At that point, they return to using "relief bags" taped to their ass and "manual urine containment." 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 ♡ 5.3K O 225 people are Tweeting about .

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@ @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette During a malfunction, it is also possible for a giant floating globe of pee to exit the toilet. Fun fact: Due to chemicals, it is bright purple and acidic. Fun fact: Poop regularly escapes, which is why you never eat a milk dud found floating in the ISS. 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 9.4K 628 people are Tweeting about .

Text - Mary Robinette Kowal@E @MaryRobinette Replying to @MaryRobinette All of which is to say that the reason women didn't go into space had nothing to do with lacking the technology to pee. We didn't have the technology for men to pee in space when they started either. And some days, the best solution is still a diaper or a bag taped to the ass 11:01 AM · Jul 19, 2019 12.3K 989 people are Tweeting abou.

Ultima Online Gamer Nukes Fellow Players Out Of Orbit


If you spend enough time endlessly wandering the massive realm of an online roleplaying world you're apt to encounter some fellow players that are just petty, evil masterminds. Anyone ever get baited to wander into the wilderness in Runescape, then get surprise ko'ed, and lose all of your stuff that you spent hours acquiring. Well, with that being said we can't say we've ever seen a player pull off such an unforgettable, hilarious, absolutely vicious nuclear revenge. The attention to detail when it comes to this revenge is what elevates it to being nothing short of art.

Text - yes-sica God I spent countless hours as a teen playing on a heavily modded and roleplay enforced ultima online server. I played Cedric Sartone, simple farmer turned tavern owner who eventually turned it into THE BEST PLACE IN TOWN. It was poppin every night, I was buddies with every adventurer, soldier, mage, druid, and rangor that played the game. After thoy went out and grinded their skills and did their quests, I was waiting for them with a warm fire and plenty of ale. I'd buy their in

Text - Little did they know I had a side hobby, I was brewing massive amounts of the most gamebreakingly toxic poison possible. For over a year I roleplayed with these people as a simple barman, pretended to be their friend and confidant, and then during a harvest festival where every player on our server was in attendance and I was payed to provide the food and drink. I poisoned every last morsel of food, every drop of drink and after the reagent delivered his speech and all of these fools rais

5.

Text - Now this was a permanent death server (hardcore rpers mind you) and some had been playing those characters for 8 years and there they all were, collapsed and dying. Soon they were all unconscious, as you could only die if you went unconscious three times in one day or if a certain psychotic bartender came and cut off your head... which I did to every player in our group of 38. They were all there, and unfortunately so was I. Revenge against what, you ask?

6.

Text - So the server had a pretty strict policy regarding pvp and pk, essentially the GMs had to determine if there was in character justification for any instance of disputed player killing, obviously my situation prompted a call for an investigation. I understood those rules from the start though, and I kept a written log in the game where I detailed my character's building hatred of every single other player character in the world. He would keep track of every little thing from petty slights,

7.

Text - So Elias was always whistling, well I recorded how infuriating Cedric found it in his journal, and soon he had multiple journals packed full of a thousand reasons an unstable maniac could use to justifiably (re: server rules) murder anyone. The reagent who was also the server admin had some ornate cloak with a custom texture, so I wrote like three pages about how pompous it was, and extrapolated what kind of insutfferable prick he must have been for wearing it.

8.

Text - I would just write one or two things down every day for over a year, so I had many books full for the GMs to locate in the tavern basement and read through. The result was that they found my massacre to be in good form and in-character, so the server was not rolled back and instead they decided to reset and implement a new landmass they had been working on. Some people were really pissed off, mostly a handful of the veteran players who had been top dog for several years in their little gl

9.

Text - I only did any of it because my first character was murdered by some overzealous asshole who just used his character to project his inferiority complex. He killed me on my second day on the server because I wandered into the funeral of his friend (it was taking place in the middle of town and there was a crowd, of course I was curious) and because I was not invited and he was a known prick it was found justifiable for his character to kill mine because of the emotional turmoil blah blah.

Twitter Thread: A Man's Observations On First Proper Christmas


Mohammad Hussain's one amongst many unfortunate folks who have had to cancel their holiday plans due to the ongoing pandemic. It's been a historically difficult year, for sure. But throughout all this adversity, it's on us to mindfully work to identify the silver linings when we can. It would seem this guy was able to bring some humor with his observations on his first proper Christmas in the states. It really can be quite the intense holiday filled to the brim with preparations, and all the food and drinks.

Interior design - Mohammad Hussain @MohammadHussain Growing up, my Muslim family never celebrated Christmas. This year I am not going home, because pandemic, so my roommates are teaching me how to have my first proper Christmas. I am approaching this with anthropological precision. Here are a few observations.

From the outside looking in, Christmas always seemed pretty simple. I always thought you put up a tree and then gave gifts to family. This is a lie. 22 Mohammad Hussain @MohammadHus. · 3h Do you want to sleep in on a Saturday? Too bad. Go put up some lights inside the house. Oh you want to sleep in on Sunday? Too bad. Go put u

I don't understand this one but I told my roommate I bought stuff for my stocking and they said that's not a thing. I don't care. I bought myself mint chapstick and I will fake surprise. 20 Mohammad Hussain @MohammadHuss.. 3h Observation 4: Your gift budget does not matter. You can set this budget as high as you want but the perfect gift will always be $10 too expensive.

Christmas decoration - Mohammad Hussain @MohammadHussain My roommates encouraged me to buy my own keeper ornament. They told me to find something that made me smile and that was special to me. I bought this one and I am very happy. It is an everything bagel.

Text - Mohammad Hussain @MohammadHuss.. 3h Observation 6: ORNAMENTS ARE EXPENSIVE. That cost me $15.99. That's more than three everything bagels. I am furious. For what it cost, you best believe that I am insisting that it be passed on to my great grandchildren. If they break it I will haunt them. 27 1 24 Mohammad Hussain @MohammadHuss.. · 3h Observation 7: The religious aspect of Christmas is optional. T really like this one.

Text - Mohammad Hussain @MohammadHussain To wrap things up I want to applaud longtime Christmas celebrators. This is a lot of work and very tiring. I will say I am having a very pleasant time.

Uber Passenger Gets in Wrong Car, Hilarity Ensues


Man, you've really got to make the extra effort to show your Uber/Lyft drivers how much you appreciate them, whenever you use one of the ride share apps. Those poor drivers end up in the middle of all kinds of ridiculous situations with entitled, drunken, or just straight up clueless passengers. This guy handled the whole misunderstanding with an admirable amount of class though.
