HR just conducted a 1.5-hour company-wide interactive chat about awareness of people's different and preferred communication styles, and if they really respected mine, that meeting would have been an email.

I like how the apocalypse keeps rolling out and everyone’s all, “So…brunch still, right?”

"Grab some toilet paper!” I cry out. “There’s a bug out here!”
"Why?” my partner calls back. “You gonna wipe its ass?"

I never wanted to be a Disney Princess…except maybe the part where birds and small woodland creatures help do my chores and light accounting and whatnot.

A horror movie where, instead of being killed first, a dog’s the final girl.

“And the award for loudest chasm goes to… HOWLING VOID!”
HOWLING VOID: [howls]
The camera pans to Shrieking Abyss, just fucking glaring.

In the spirit of current movies using slow twee versions of 80s songs, I’d love if the upcoming Deadpool flick included a drawn out, soulful rendition of the old Transformers cartoon theme.
Just Lana Del Ray crooning about robots in disguise being more than meets the eye.

LASSIE: BARK
ME: What is it, girl? Is Timmy stuck in the well?
LASSIE: BARK
ME: Is someone else stuck in the well?
LASSIE: BARK
ME: Is the well okay? Do the well stones need to be re-pointed? Is it well-related?

When writing science fiction, always Google your made-up planet name; 9 times out of 10, it's an existing yeast infection medication.

When my elevator opens on another floor, I say “I’m high risk for Covid and can’t share, but I’ll get out and you can take it”.
I used to say I’m immunocompromised but switched to save time, and now folks seem to think I mean *I* have Covid and back away like “no no you go” while looking scared.
Honestly wish I’d thought of this years ago — people stepping back from me in disgust is all I ever wanted in life.

“It hurts when I go like this, doc,” I say.
My physician watches, her expression slipping into one of horror. “HOW IN FUCK ARE YOU EVEN DOING THAT?!”

They say "you snooze, you lose," which means I start every morning failing multiple times in 9-minute intervals.

“I want a heart,” The Tin Man laments.
“And I need some c-c-c-courage,” The Cowardly Lion trembles.
“BRRAAAAINS,” says the zombie.
“… Where the hell’d Ray go?” asks the actor playing The Tin Man.
