On a related tangent, it always seemed to me that homophobe should refer to being terrified of oneself. Is there actually a term for that? Can that happen?

Oh yeah just checked its autophobia. I forgot about "auto" somehow

More like being afraid of people who are similar to oneself. So you're walking down the street and you cross to the other side because you saw someone with the same shirt and a similar haircut heading your way.

[Eric Blank]

That would actually make more sense heh

Lol, it sort of is.  But that wasn't the intended meaning of the word.

Not quite a homophone, no.

Only when sufficiently muddled by backing.

Yeah, they actually call it "near homophony" in the article. "Kiss the sky" => "Kiss this guy" is nearly homophonic. You should kiss something else afterwards to show you're not all the way homophonic.

In the interest of shitposting quicker I've decided to finally name and categorize all the memes, reactions, gifs and comics I've collected over the past few months. So far I have:

Anime related, Antimemes, Cringe, Cringe (weird situations), Cringe (social media), Cringe (Meme obsession), Funny non-meme images, Gifs, Hate my life, No context, Reactions (direct), Reactions (indirect), and Subtitle Joke.

I really do have no life don't I
I should file myself under cringe (meme obsession)

Or just go ahead and kiss the guy.  Hendrix did in concert a couple times.

Perhaps not, if one were a true enthusiast, but still.

True enthusiast here. Without chemical enhancement of some kind, like alcohol or painkillers, yeah, it's painful after a while non-stop. Look up the side effects of Prozac to see how I know that.

Go an hour or two, stop for a while, get some Gatorade, take a shower, eat a sandwich or something, then go back to it. Respect your body, man.

...eh?

Someone put a banana in a car park.
I ran over it.
Then I had banana on my car.

It was harmless but also inconvenient. Had to wash my wheel well at midnight to the chagrin of my neighbours.

[scriver]

Fun fact; 7/10 bananas do in fact contain a facehugger.

[Bumber]

I always heard it 'ripped up like a douche'

Ripped up like a goose.

[Rolan7]

Somehow this is reminding me of those early creation myths where a male god, ah, "creates" the universe.
"Quantum tunneling", teehee

It's a banana, not the xenomorph blood from Alien. Not gonna dissolve your car overnight. Most it'll do is worry some authorities when they notice higher than background radiation coming from your car.

True, it's not pineapple
