I was reading a book (about interjections, oddly enough) yesterday which included the phrase “In these days of political correctness…” talking about no longer making jokes that denigrated people for their culture or for the colour of their skin. And I thought, “That’s not actually anything to do with ‘political correctness’. That’s just treating other people with respect.”
Which made me oddly happy. I started imagining a world in which we replaced the phrase “politically correct” wherever we could with “treating other people with respect”, and it made me smile.
You should try it. It’s peculiarly enlightening.
I know what you’re thinking now. You’re thinking “Oh my god, that’s treating other people with respect gone mad!”
Happy Valentine’s Day.
Both have an invaluable powerful artifact.
personally i believe that yoda and gollum are more similar than people think
The local big-box store has decided not to let Hallowe'en get in the way of Christmas and set up the twelve-foot animatronic skeleton right next to the twelve-foot inflatable Santa. The inflatable Santa's wobbling keeps setting off the animatronic skeleton's motion activated flail-and-scream routine, which in turn sets off the inflatable Santa's motion sensor and makes it play "Jingle Bells".

Some spins on the "mostly male team with a token woman" trope:
The woman is trans and stayed in her old circle of bros even after transition
The woman is the only one in her circle of "girls" who didn't turn out to be a trans man
