I didn’t actually laugh aloud but it still amused me enough to reblog

is there any way to make your remains totally unavailable to the biosphere? i know you can get cremated and made into a rock but most of your mass gets released into the air! maybe if i was encased in resin…

 

official-kircheis:

Have your remains launched into heliocentric orbit

Greg Egan – The Walk:

I strain my ears, but I can’t pick up the faintest hint of traffic, now; just birdsong, insects, the crackling of the forest’s debris underfoot. Fucking nature. I refuse to die here. I want to end my life like a human being: in Intensive Care, high on morphine, surrounded by cripplingly expensive doctors and brutal, relentless life-support machines. Then the corpse can go into orbit— preferably around the sun. I don’t care how much it costs, just so long as I don’t end up part of any fucking natural cycle: carbon, phosphorus, nitrogen. Gaia, I divorce thee. Go suck the nutrients out of someone else, you grasping bitch.

is there any way I can hurt google?

okay I’ll bite, what’s google

no, biting won’t do it

actually, biting random googlers on sight probably would do something

So it turns out that “dastard” is not, in fact, a minced version of “bastard” (it’s instead derived from an unrelated Middle English word meaning “stupid” or “cowardly”), but it sounds like it should be, and I maintain that every single instance of the word “dastardly” becomes much funnier if replaced with “bastardly”.

#I didn’t actually laugh aloud but it still amused me enough to reblog #fun with loopholes #overly literal interpretations #(as for the conversation going on in the notes: no I will not buy toccatainfsharpminor a .ca domain) #(you have to publicly doxx yourself in order to buy one of those) #(it’s pretty severe doxxing too like your home address and everything)

In the afterlife, souls can see how many living people still know you once existed. You, who had lived a fairly normal life, finally saw the count drop to 0 just 200 years after your death. 500 years later, 95% of the Earth’s total population suddenly knows about you.

And they all know I sold really, really shitty copper.

I laughed UNREASONABLY hard over this.
