Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh dear God....

Thanks, 1970s Japan!: Insane Star Wars-Themed Commercial for Sea Chicken [Video]

Answer: Chewbacca jumping and yelping like someone just gave him a hearty Wookiee-neutering. Horrible doppelgangers of Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, and Princess Leia. “Sea chicken,” a screeching mantra that will haunt your ears like nothing else since “RED RUM.” The geisha-like version of C-3PO that you never imagined could be more effeminate than the original. Typical Japanese batshit craziness.

Question: What can you find in this Star Wars-themed Japanese commercial for Sea Chicken from the 1970s?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Why is it that every individual kid at the high school down the street must be dropped off by a large SUV? Each precious little angel is dropped right at the curb, so that they do not have to walk an additional step to the front door.

I want to collect them all in a big container, tag them w/GPS, and drop them off in the middle of Brooklyn. Then we'll place bets on how many of them die before nightfall.

PS: I was twenty minutes late due to SUV/Kid dropoff this morning. TAKE THE FUCKING BUS.

Bacon Flavored Popcorn

Bacon POP combines the comfort and flavor of yester-year food with the convenience of today’s microwave. Because in 5 minutes or less you’ll be enjoying a savory, delicious mix of bacon, butter and premium popcorn that’s designed for maximum eatability and anytime snacking. How’s that for convenience?

Some offices actually ask employees not to heat up popcorn in the company microwave because of it’s enticing and alluring smell. Now multiply that by the power of bacon and you’ll be driving everyone up the wall with BaconPOP. Enjoy eating your BaconPOP as you watch your co-workers be resuscitated from choking on their own.

TAKE THE FUCKING BUS.

But--*those* sort of people ride the bus! You know ... *those* people. Who aren't *our* people. You don't want Precious Princess to be known as a bus-riding type of person, do you?

(heard too many local comments about why people don't want to ride the bus, which is why our public transit sucks)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I worked in a place like that. At my first CA job I had to ask the guys near me not to pop popcorn because his slightly burnt organic popcorn gave me a migraine.

I bet the bacon popcorn stuff is teh nast.

Last time I rode the bus, the people smelt really bad. The busses in my neighbourhood are perfectly fine. Downtown LA...Imma cab it.

My family gave me a "Bad Cat" desk calendar for X-mas. Today's "Bad Cat" has a picture of an unhappy cat with the caption, "The more you look at me, the bigger my migraine gets."

ita, I'll send it to you if you want, but I don't know if you're the kind of person who identifies with captioned pictures of cats....

Now tagless for your comfort.

The bacon department at Think Geek is fully stocked with bacon popcorn. I'm tempted to try the Baconnaise. Or the Canned Tactical Bacon.

Huh. I never notice bad smells on the bus. On the train, OTOH, there's often a urine smell. And occasionally a very bad poo-poo smell.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

My sister's stepdaughter has a bit of a Precious Princess complex and refuses to take the bus at all, and has vowed that if she ever lives somewhere with a subway system, she'd never take it. Sis just rolls her eyes and tells her she'll have to learn how to use public transit someday, especially since she doesn't want to take driver's ed and get her license even though she is now 16.

J (the stepdaughter) was a bit spoiled when she lived with her mother, and now that she's living with her father and Sis, she's having to adjust to actually doing some cleaning around the house and not getting everything she asks for. It's driving my sister up the wall.
