Betteridge’s law of headlines says that I won’t survive…

Also, you may find a local store or boutique that sells quirky items. One popular brand that they’ll often carry is Fred, they make lots of ridiculous items. Other brands that I’ve found over the years are Larissa Loden, and Blue Q

Is that the same as “the game” where it was something like you lose when you remember about it?

Depending on the audience, there are cute little plush things, Giant Microbes, which have a line of sexual transmitted diseases. If you get one for an SO, they can say, “13esq gave me chlamydia for Christmas…”

Other good joke gifts can come from any inside joke that you may have with your SO, so these are very situational. At one point, I had joked that my SO was a sugar mama because she was paying for something expensive for us. I later got her a t-shirt for a candy called Sugar Mama.

On one date, we were the only ones dining at an outside patio at a nicer Italian restaurant. We had ordered wood fire pizzas. Anyway, a very large rat came to visit the patio, and we had joked about it at the time, even naming the rat. I later gave her an ornament of a felt rat holding a pizza slice (which is apparently a thing).

I can’t think of any others right now, but I love giving little joke gifts to people along with real ones.

I’m all for this… I want your attention in my mouth.

Exactly. That’s why the “13yo” kid having sex seems less worrisome.

God, I hate how often my CEO says this

That’s disappointing

There was something about the way “shattered” was said that reminded me of the band at Chuck E Cheese’s. There must have been a song, or one of the animatronics must have had a similar voice… I have no idea, but that was always my strong association

Well it’s been 24 months since I’ve last heard that kind of complaint…

It looks like an English Springer Spaniel to me. And what do you mean about the eyes? What looks wrong to you?

I had to look this one up, it’s a reference to a mountain climber, George Mallory. From Wikipedia:

Once, when asked by a reporter why he wanted to climb Everest, Mallory purportedly replied, “Because it’s there.”

A spoofed number only works going out, but if you respond, it would go to the real person instead (the same if you call the spoofed number back, you’d get the real person and not the spammer). Since this bot is responding to their replies, it can’t be a spoofed number.
