  • This is a meme, coming from an old copy/paste bit. Know your meme has a good write up about it.

    Albert Einstein Copypasta, also known as “Malice of Absence,” is a fictional account of a philosophical debate on the benevolence of God between a religious-skeptic professor and a student of faith, the latter of whom is revealed to be the world-renowned scientist Albert Einstein. Online, the last line in the story is often referenced in discussion threads and comments to mock hyperbolic statements or tall tales.













  • Especially seeing them out of context. I once ran into a newscaster on public transit, and thought they looked somehow different from the rest of us, but couldn’t really place it. At some point later, I had vaguely recognized them as a newscaster on one of the local stations that I didn’t watch, so I still don’t really know who they were.


  • My curiosity is piqued too! I’m mostly commenting so that I can check back later, but…

    • Are they wearing chain mail gloves (for sharks or cutting meat) that the hair would catch?

    • Going forearm deep in food, to stir or, I don’t know…?

    • Reaching into hot ovens or crucibles that the hair would singe?

    • Going forearm deep to help birth sheep or cows?

    • Or are they a wristwatch/hand model?




  • I found someone had posted this on Reddit two years ago. Over there u/Vectrexian had said:

    Hell yeah, Sega 32X Metal Head. A janky mess of a game with cool music!

    And elaborated:

    It’s a clunky mech piloting game for the Sega 32X. The actual gameplay is pretty mediocre, but the music is pretty good (with famed Sonic series composer Jun Senoue on the sound team). One rather “interesting” feature of the game is the character portraits during dialogue, which is where this photo is from. The text was edited for the joke though, that text isn’t in the original game (it’s not even the right font). You can actually change the portraits to anime-style drawings in the options menu but these are funnier, especially when the mouths move.
