Australian's everywhere are getting excited. Aunty Donna has made it big. If you haven't heard anything about Aunty Donna, the only thing you have to remember is: Don't get in the kiln.

Among Us Maccas Edition

Seems a bit much. How would you even vote the nuggets out? Would they be able to plead their case? Does voting them out mean you eat them? I don't think this person has thought this through.

By far the best thing I’ve seen on the internet 😂 pic.twitter.com/4TUM8C54mA

Orange is very sus. He's been pretending to do tasks and actively killing other crewmates. Vote him out.

Morning Anxiety

me: *wakes up with a ton of anxiety, already shaking*

also me: perhaps.... several cups of coffee?

— dirt prince (@pant_leg) October 20, 2020

Coffee will certainly help take the edge off.

Zombies are scary, y'all

Also, I hope your cardio is in-check. Remember, it's the first rule of Zombieland.

Mountain Dew promotions aside, remember the Believe mockumentaries? That was some incredible marketing.

The year you were born

Which words first appeared in print the year you were born?

This is a fun little thing! The first time "World Wide Web" was in print was the year I was born. Wild to think that's such a dated phrase.

Ozzie's having a rough time

Spectrum Ultra speed, baby!

Look at what you're charging me an extra $20 a month for, @Ask_Spectrum! pic.twitter.com/4zoQcCwbyf

— Ozzie Mejia (Socially Distant) (@Ozz_Mejia) October 20, 2020

Man, I really feel for Ozzie. Those speeds are deplorable. I don't know what's going on over in the States, but this is messed up.

Disco Elysium is excellent

The chair you're sitting on has got to be the most uncomfortable chair in the world. It's *violating* your backside.

This is your reminder to sit up straight and have some water. Have you played Disco Elysium yet? It's still on sale on Steam.
