This is the same logic as taking the battery out of the smoke alarm to stop the noise
I mean, yeah. We all do that.
Does everyone else not have a battery organizer case with a battery tester and a reserve of each type of battery proportional to the number in use among household devices, arranged by capacity?
…no?
You’re not crazy. Just autistic. Probably.
I may have misrepresented myself here. My battery case is something like that, but about a quarter the size/capacity. I pretty much just have two replacements for each application so that I can practice FIFO while ordering replacements for restocking.
Lit fam 🔥
I have heard the smoke alarm many, many times.
I have never been in a burning building
As a parent to five kids (too many, don’t be me) I’d welcome the Wall People over some.of the things I’ve had to deal with. Weird I can deal with, gross on a long term consistent basis drives me nuts.
I knew a large family with 10 kids growing up. The last 4 called themselves the “too manies”.
When 10 cents for a condom is too much, but 18 years is just fine
The were like the quiverfulls but didn’t call themselves that. I can’t remember the name. The parents* believed every child that could be born, should be born. It was their duty.
The fuck you live condoms are 10 cents lol
A box of them can be had for a few bucks, with like 25 each. Hell, you can go to some places (planned parenthood style facilities) and they are free to take from a bowl on the front counter.
I spent like $15 a few years ago and got like 50 fancy ‘variety pack’ style with various brands in them. Big spender over here!
Though I went galaxy-brain, with my mind being all ‘oooh boys 🥰’, so I don’t need to worry about wrapping up to prevent a kiddo myself :P
I don’t get it, you would ask them to help out or what? 😁
Free babysitting FTW
Ask not what the wall people can do for you. Ask what you can do for the wall people.
The Wall People: [whispering loudly in chorus]: “We crave incarnation. Give us your fleshshsh that we may return to the world of humansssss.”
Me: “Well, that’s not going to happen. You wanna watch some trash TV? I’ve seen you watching over my shoulder.”
The Wall People: “Fleshshsh…fleshshsh, fleshshsh…”
Me: “Alright, alright! I could invite Randy over. He’s been lonely for a while and might enjoy the company of having some psychospiritual roommates in his head.”
The Wall People: "Raaaaandyyyy? The one who “saves it for later” when he gets nachos stuck in his beard and says “females have unreasonably high standards for men. That Raaaandyyy?”
Me: “Yeah, maybe you can help him see things differently and, y’know, makes some changes.”
The Wall People: “sssssssss…”
Me: "Yes?
The Wall people: “…ssssset Hulu to play the Secret Lives of Mormon Houswives.”
Me: “Yeah, that’s what I thought.”
[Later]
The Wall People: “Whhhhyyyyy do Jessi and Whitney remain friends after publicly accusing each other?”
Me: [through a mouthful of potato chips]: “I don’t know, but if someone accused me of being a manipulator, I would not hang out with them.”
The Wall People: “Manipulator? The other one betrayed her trusssssst!”
Me: “Look, I’m not taking sides here. You can’t take this stuff too seriously. It’s not functionally real for us, if it’s even objectively real at all. If you can’t handle that, we can always switch over to Bluey, Paw Patrol, or PBS Kids.”
The Wall People: “Fffffiiine. I am calm nowwwww. Paaaaassss the chipssss.”
Me: “That’s a good legion of wall-dwelling, disembodied spirits.”
The Wall People: [Crunching noises]
All in all youre just another brick
Misread that as
I don’t have chicken
Maybe the walls were thin in his house and he could hear his parents complaining about her, he was trying to warn her.
Plot twist: the Wall People actually love you — they just hate bedtime negotiations. Kids are tiny chaos goblins with great one-liners 😅
She’s valid, fuck those wall people
They don’t want her to fuck them. They don’t even like her.
The Man in the Wall is always watching.
He’s been pretty quiet lately, though. I wonder what he’s up to? It isn’t like I gave his finger back or anything.
The Wall People?
The Wall Street People?
Fucking kids really are incorporated these days, they have shareholders and boards…
