Ha, "he looks terrible" is what stood out most to me. It shouldn't matter either way, but that dude is GQ-cover-page handsome. I can only surmise from Trump's comment that he's shitting his pants with envy

unload a glittering cargo of stars, entrepreneurs, supermodels, influencers and tycoons into the lagoon

If only that were literally true

Bear baiting is legal in Michigan, but the hole on a barrel lid typically must be large enough to avoid what happened to this bear.

What the almighty fuck, Michigan?

Yeah, it could be rephrased a little as well, like "guess I stood up too fast again"

I was actually wondering about that but was too lazy to check. Thanks for the correction

It pains me to argue this point, but are you sure there isn't a legitimate use case just this once? The text says that this was aimed at making Wikipedia more accessible to less advanced readers, like (I assume) people whose first language is not English. Judging by the screenshot they're also being fully transparent about it. I don't know if this is actually a good idea but it seems the least objectionable use of generative AI I've seen so far.

It doesn't scan. But it's not bothering me. Nope not at all. Not in any way annoyed by the fact that there's one too many syllables in the second ~~verse~~ line. Only a complete pedant would get HUNG UP ON THAT RIGHT HAHAHAHAHA

Adding up the components, total comes out to 1952k tonnes on the left and 1603k on the right

'Cause your friends don't dance

And if they don't dance

That's a personal choice and I suppose we could be friends anyways, I mean dancing isn't really a fundamental criterion as far as choosing friends is concerned, but right this moment we're going dancing so I don't think your friends would enjoy it being as they don't dance unless I guess they just want to enjoy the music that would be perfectly fine

Rhyming "do ya" and "hallelujah" has got to be one of the ballsiest plays in music history
