WTF are those obelisks on the right?…

“It’s digestible” has got to be the laziest goal I’ve ever seen achieved by a food product.
“It’s digestible”
“It’s digestible” is pertinent!! Okay, for those of you who haven’t researched Crisco for writing fic about gay sex in the mid-late 60s:
The first-edition of The Joy of Gay Sex, published in 1977, declared, “Vegetable shortening may be the best lubricant, since it is not only greasy but also digestible”[4] Such a statement perhaps gives new meaning to the companies boastful declarations that “Its digestible” and “Crisco has been making life in the kitchen more delicious for years.” Similarly, in the 1978 sex manual The Advocate Guide to Gay Health, Crisco even earned an entry in the book’s index. Discussions of the shortening’s use as an anal lubricant indicate its popularity, with statements such as: “The lubricant, typically the cultic Crisco, must be copious.”[5] In fact, Crisco was so synonomus with gay sex that discos and bars around the world took on the name, such as Crisco Disco in New York City, which was one of the premiere clubs during the 1970s and early 1980s. Other clubs or bathhouses, such as Club Z in Seattle, even featured murals with Crisco. Thus, Crisco was conversely also one of many things that led to the formation of gay identities during the 20th century.

The more you know! :D
I have learned a new thing today.
Love this post for so many reasons but most especially because this is from all the way back in 2012 and and yet not a single blog in this thread is deactivated
I enjoy that not only does this have a link to an actual source, but the link still fucking works.
but @rhea314 you didnt include a picture of the crisco disco! AND MY GOD THE DJ BOOTH WAS A GIANT CRISCO CAN!
Go dance and get fisted. Fucking iconic.
Love the gay history, but i just wanna correct that the “it’s digestible” in the gay stuff was a reference to crisco’s tagline it had been using since 1911, the actual meaning of its digestible is because it’s main competition came from “enhanced” lards which were rendered pig fat mixed with non food thickeners that literally did not digest and caused people to basically just shit out pig cream, since crisco was veggie based the body digested it along with the food
And in case you were still wondering, @mudwerks.. Tuna Croquettes
This post is the opposite of net zero information. Not only did I learn several new facts about gay history but also we rounded our way back to the original question of the tag line and the mini obelisks.
It’s a net profit of information. 12/10 post
who fucking litters. why do i ever see litter. who thinks that’s okay. who. who NEEDS to throw their fast food bag out the fucking window instead of waiting until they get somewhere with a trashcan. what kinda clown behavior. get fucked.
One time I saw a guy walk out of a restaurant and throw his half finished soda on the ground and I picked it up and put it in the garbage to make him feel self conscious and with otherwise no visible reaction to me he got into his truck, pulled out of his parking lot, threw another half full soda out the window onto the same pavement and sped away and I realize he’s a giant sack of shit and yes littering is absolutely gross and childish but objectively that was the funniest I’ve ever been completely owned
i’m going to keep it real with you tumblr userbase… if we don’t want tumblr as we know it completely ruined you’re probably going to have to flood tumblr on the app store with 1-star reviews. we need to make their ANALYTICS hurt. we need to make management scared. we need to explain in those reviews exactly why we are mad. say what we don’t want changed (or do want changed back). i am so serious.
the tumblr app still currently sits at four stars, despite MASSIVE userbase and sitewide backlash to the current features and updates.
we need to change that.

is it just me or is NASA weirdly aggressive in their article about black holes?
can a black hole destroy the earth?
no, you idiot.
black holes aren’t planet gluttons, you bitch.
and the earth isn’t some weak-ass planet that would just fall in to a black hole like a sucker.
and that dumbass sun that we’ve got isn’t big enough to make a black hole like other stars.
you fool.
This reads like an exhausted doctor explaining that no, you fucking moron, vaccines do not cause autism.

Today my friends sent me a meme about how “The only reason there are still pyramids in Egypt is because they’re too large for the British to steal”, and they thought it was just a joke until I pulled out the “Germany stole the fricking GATE of Babylon, that’s absolutely the reason the pyramids are still there”. o.O

'horseplay' and 'monkey business' being treated as synonyms means something. don't know what though
Monkeys are so silly that what they consider business, horses consider play.
