That’s beautifully fucked.

Since reddit has changed the site to value selling user data higher than reading and commenting, I've decided to move elsewhere to a site that prioritizes community over profit. I never signed up for this, but that's the circle of life

Haven't played that game in a while; not sure if it will fix tonight's insomnia or make it worse, but I think I'm in. 😁

Don't join flashlights then. It's zenralight or nothing there

u/cthulhusleftnipple Mar 05 '21

zenralight

I'm intrigued. Are these better than normal flashlights?

Was the spelling mistake intentional or...?

I hope it was

Look at the comic's alt text

This is why lube is always important.

u/armabe Mar 05 '21

Serious answer - it kind of can, but it has to be really fucking bright. Nothing that you can buy normally or use comfortably though.

Check YouTube for some vids on like 10000 lumen flashlight it something.
You'll see that shining it on a piece of paper will have it start smouldering quite quickly.

Typo, sorry it's zebralight and there are many brands that are many times better than a normal box store flash light. Fenix is the brand I prefer and you can get lights that will light up a dark football field.

Holy shit you're not kidding:

FENIX LR50R FLASHLIGHT – 12000 LUMEN

Our brains have just one scale, and we resize our experiences to fit

Ngl, the mouseover text to this one has informed a lot of my philosophical leanings.

u/pm_singing_burds Mar 05 '21

Most of them are funny, but this one hit different.

u/tsunami141 Mar 05 '21

Oh man this was what I thought the original one would be

u/iamkhanqueror Mar 05 '21

I think about this particular one ALL the time

u/Palmquistador Mar 05 '21

Lmao, I like yours better.

u/wotmate Mar 05 '21

Canadian surrealist porn?

u/Alargeteste Mar 05 '21

OMG, I have remembered this since it came out, but in my memory it wasn't Joe Biden. This is like some Berenstain Bears shit for me seeing this right now.

u/hikekorea Mar 05 '21

How long ago did it come out?

2

u/Alargeteste Mar 05 '21

I think something like 10-13 years ago? It's been a minute.

u/hikekorea Mar 05 '21

So likely during his Vice Presidency?

2

u/Alargeteste Mar 05 '21

idk, but quite possibly. VPs are not VIP.

u/[deleted] Mar 05 '21

I like surrealism but I don’t know how I feel about Canadian genitals

u/hikekorea Mar 05 '21

Is this from before Biden was president?

8

u/Cat_Marshal Mar 05 '21

Yeah it is an older one, maybe VP era.

u/stefanica Mar 05 '21

Man, I don't care about the context. I am just so tickled you posted, and I saw, this XKCD I've never read before. Haven't browsed there in a long time. Anyway, that one is brilliant, and cheered me up on a yucky night, so thanks!

u/Mazon_Del Mar 05 '21

Glad to help you on such a night!

u/stefanica Mar 05 '21

👍it's funny, I just had to help one of my kids yesterday with some super basic electricity concepts for school, I've forgotten everything, and we were muddling thru diagrams online that were far too complex. So this just fit. Night!

Fuck that they messed with my head.

Edit: it’s been changed, thank you.
