"Veni. Vidi. Conveni. Consedi."
Happy Tuesday, all! I hope you are all enjoying this weird liminal space between December 25th and New Year’s where nothing is accomplished and we are all just potatoes. Time to add some internet stuff to your day of nothing!
Say “Fuck you, 2021!” and get 20% off a paid subscription to Stuff I Saw On The Internet!
From now until January 1st, 2022, you can get 20% off an annual subscription to SISOTI — meaning for just $24 a year, you’ll get access to bonus internet roundups AND the smug satisfaction of knowing you’re better than everyone else. The monthly subscription is still $5 a month, so with this deal on an annual sub, you’ll be getting 7.2 months for FREE – and that discount will last forever, even if you renew a year from now. I’ll be raising the price back up once 2022 hits, though, so don’t dawdle.
It’s I Hate It But I Hate It month on I Hate It But I Love It
I mentioned this last week, but just reiterating that for our whole month of movies we completely hate, Jocelyn and I revisited the horrifying 1985 children’s film The Peanut Butter Solution, because almost all children’s cinema from the ‘80s traumatized us. And for our final episode of the year, this Wednesday’s ep will have us talking about Vanilla Sky. You should subscribe, if you wanna be cool! (You can find I Hate It But I Love It in all the usual places, including Apple, Spotify, Stitcher, and Pocket Casts.)
TWEETS!
REDDIT!
A father-of-the-year who had no problem neglecting his daughter for years, but can’t stand a few hours of her telling him he hurt her:
I wasn't the perfect father, but goddamn. The way my daughter (Alana, 26) talks about me in therapy, you'd think I'd never done anything good for her at all. I get it. I fucked up. But it's like I told the therapist when he asked me how my daughter's words made me feel: "I'm not trying to shift any blame, but my wife is right here and my daughter hasn't said one bad word about her this entire time. Is this goijg to be family therapy or bash Dad for an hour and forty-five minutes every week?"
Oh, your wife didn’t pack your suitcase for you? Well how about she packs all your stuff and leaves it at the curb?
Yesterday Ted came home asking if his bags were ready since it was time to go. I said I don't know and he was stunned. he freaked out saying I knew he was going to travel to his hometown and I should've packed his bags like I always do. I admit that packing his bags is what I do but ONLY WHEN WE'RE TRAVELING TOGETHER and I figured since he was traveling on his own then he should pack them himself. He lost it saying I just caused him to be late
This is just very weird and the OP needs a reality check:
It was really lonely and to be honest felt like it was unfair because I signed on to have a roommate, if I wanted to live by myself I would have gotten an apartment by myself. 2 weeks ago she came home and I mentioned how often she was gone, and she said "well you knew I was married before you even signed on." and yes that's true so I tried to compromise with her and suggested she could at least spend 2 weeks here and 2 weeks with her husband but she got very uncomfortable and refused to continue the conversation.
And here is a very cute cat video.
