@jiggyjayy2 Wild that the real estate agency didn't Google the people allegedly holding up a $20 million deal

@suzy_redd My squats have improved dramatically since I switched my lifting shoes from Hoka to Tyr.

@DPearsonPHL "why did people in the 1960s buy plates that weren't compatible with an appliance they would acquire 20 years later"

[Karen Willenbrecht @kdbrecht]

@xereeto @DPearsonPHL A lot of these sets were wedding presents - "registering for your china pattern" was common and guests would each buy a couple of pieces to make up the set (I think that was driven more by the preceding generation who felt their kids needed china and silver to be respectable)

@DefenseBaron @StevieVanZandt I don't think I've ever said the phrase "I'd like to read that thesis" but ... I *would* like to read that thesis

@LagunaBiotchIG I had the same experience, and couldn't stop thinking, what if this had happened to someone who'd never tasted tequila before and didn't realize immediately that this wasn't a mocktail?

@SummrWrites I've been binging Mean Girl Murders and this has really stood out to me. Don't go hiking with someone who has beef with you!

If those astronauts go around the moon and can find no trace of Lisa Stansfield’s baby then I really think that’s it, we’ve exhausted all lines of enquiry

As a North Carolinian, I spent several minutes mentally debating whether Robby doesn't want her to apply in DURHAM (at Duke) or in DERM. The dueling sets of subtitles can't decide either!

[els 🧸🩺 @littlesadsailor]

y’all take everything in bad faith from him that you couldn’t tell that this was him trying to be supportive but firm

@viennasfool THANK YOU, this is the first take I've seen that GAF about the patient

[Karen Willenbrecht @kdbrecht]

@apbusch love to make me some Pina Killada-flavored pasta

@ilovenovelas27 @heirmeg I found a bunch of shrimp shells on a train, guess somebody peeled and ate two dozen shrimp on their commute

[Karen Willenbrecht @kdbrecht]

@Burner1634443 Plus we don't know that Louie was the only one. I think it's likely he was siphoning off small numbers of pills for a while. If a patient suspected, he could say they were drug-seeking or sold the missing pills (as he did with Louie)

@apbusch The facial expression is just killing me

Given that we all could probably use a bit of lighthearted humor right now, and since it’s been quite some time since my last “News from Romania” thread, here’s an all time best of collection of the funniest and most absurd real bits of news I’ve collected over the years. 🧵

@cvntlio @pcserphonai I can't believe the number of people On Here who don't understand how bad that is

[Karen Willenbrecht @kdbrecht]

Low-key but important takeaway from #thepitt this week - if you voluntarily go to the ER, bring something analog to occupy your time! You might end up waiting for hours in rooms with no way to charge your phone.

@JacobRubashkin "There is no smoke break in Richmond today. If you get off the train to smoke in Richmond, be sure to take your luggage with you, because you will be remaining in Richmond."

@NadieLuvsLife @EveryTaye My parents refused the offer to skip me for this exact reason and I'm SO GLAD they did. I turned out to be a tiny and late-blooming kid anyway so being a year younger than my class would have made everything worse
