    The first hospital I worked at would play this little whimsical jingle with chimes and a baby laughing any time a baby was delivered.

    Cute during the day. But after an on-call emergency surgery well after midnight, you’ve just changed out of your scrubs and into your normal clothes, walking down the dimly lit, completely vacant halls between the OR and the parking lot… and then out of no where this omnidirectional, slightly out of sync from all the overhead speakers playing it, creepy-ass carnival jingle fires off with echoing baby laughter… does its thing for like 4 seconds, then it’s back to absolute dead silence except for the hum of the lights.

    Yeah fuck that. Everyone who pulled call absolutely hated that damn thing.





  • we need more kids, especially when raised by progressive people, because the fascists are having them too.

    We’re not going to out-breed stupid or evil. Tbh, having a kid for the sake of shoving them into that death spiral is cruel as fuck.

    …also kids aren’t their parents - you can do all the right steps in raising them and still wind up with a fucking Nazi once they leave the house, and now we’ve got a net loss on all fronts.

    Vice versa is also true ofc, but please don’t crank out a baby just to use it as a footsoldier in a losing war on a dying planet.



  • We had something like the first one when I was in high school. When I was a freshmen, I saw another student drop his pants, hop up on top of it, lower into the spout so it went ALL the way up his ass, reached around and turned the water on for a second, then lifted off and shot a wave of shit-water all over the basin/wall behind it, then hopped down and ran off giggling.

    Yeah…

    Haven’t used a water fountain since.
