Is the missing chair leg in panel 3 a meta joke about letting little things bother you?

I saved a comment from u/allmhuran posted to r/news on 2016-06-24:

"Australia has had five prime ministers in five years, the poor yanks look as though they’ll have to choose between two options both of which have more disapproval than approval, and the UK leaves the EU. It seems like a ridiculous amount of instability. One might even call it absurd.

But it’s not surprising.

You can’t feed a society exaggeration, hyperbole and propaganda for over a decade, and then claim surprise when people don’t seem to be making rational decisions on the basis of well established truth.

There’s a cost associated with not telling the truth. There’s a cost associated with polarized, adversarial public discourse. There’s a cost associated with media more concerned with profits than the public interest.

It is, apparently, time to pay the piper."

You’re probably thinking of @[email protected]. I’ve been expecting another post any day but wasn’t anticipating a name change.

It may not be your real ladder but it still raised you.

This could be turned into a game with some kind of narrative like a Choose-Your-Own-E.U.L.Adventure. Players might try to exploit it though, so there should probably be some terms they have to agree to first.

With enough rocks he could practically leave no tern unstoned.

The less popular prequel to Super Mario World.

It might open an unwanted can of worms but maybe the drivers could claim they aren’t signing singing along to the radio but are vocalizing actions like Japanese train operators to ensure focus and safety.

Edit: I saw the sing and it opened up my eyes

Don’t know anything about him beyond this YT clip, but I’m hoping someone has eyes on Kline Preston:

I’m having trouble not seeing the farmer as trying to saw off his fingers with the edge of a crescent wrench.

Warp and weft…until it is done.

Please do not be alarmed, we are about to engage the nozzle.

My tech skills are rusting horribly but I tried to briefly take a look at this…

I’m seeing the same behavior with the Firefox save-as file extension being .m4a vs the displayed URL showing .mp3.

Opening either extension in VLC and viewing the codec info (Tools->Codec Info / Ctrl+J) shows the actual encoding to be ‘MPEG AAC Audio (mp4a)’.

I didn’t try grabbing a file from the torrent, but if I use the media tab in Firefox ‘Page Info’ (Ctrl+I) to “save as” the embedded IA player file it suggests a matching .mp3 extension with the displayed address (but the codec is still mp4a).

The main thing I’m not following is what you mean by having parse errors in Mp3tag. So far I haven’t seen any metadata included in either the .mp3 or .m4a downloads (I only tested the first file), they both play audio fine, and if I browse to their directory in Mp3tag (vers. 2.57) it doesn’t seem to show anything unusual to me (empty metadata, no error/alert messages). What exactly is the parse error or how is it behaving differently from what’s expected?

I also just wanted to say “THANK YOU!” for an awesome support post. You posted it to the right community, gave it a short but very descriptive title, gave lots of info about what you’ve tried and the results you’ve experienced – and did so politely :)

Hopefully you haven’t been listening to Brad’s rumors.

The long boi design is brilliant. You can have ‘friends with excrements’ on it, it’s a flushable bathtub/isolation chamber and a luxurious porcelain coffin. I hope it has an integrated bidet that functions like a wacky lawn sprinkler.

According to Reddit posts where I first saw this linked it’s from 2000. Here’s the artist’s page, didn’t see a date attached to it there unfortunately.

I was mostly referring to the quality being shitty and less-so the content of the edits themselves.

• To start with, it looks like they used a row-resolution base and then possibly tried to AI upscale it (look at animal faces on the “protect kids” wrap and the artist signature/items on the table)
• The pointless circular blur near the collar of the box holder
• The weird clone/stamp action going on with the side of the box - just use a solid box if the goal is efficiency vs quality!

But also leaving the artist’s signature on an edited comic and not mentioning it’s modified feels shitty too. This isn’t a meme or political community so I’d think posting the original is more appropriate anyway.
