    Back when my brother still lived with my mom, he, a full-grown adult, had a set of four square whiskey stones made of metal that he kept in the back of the freezer that he would add to a glass of whiskey every now and then. One night my mom texts me a picture of the whiskey stones while he’s not in the house with “I FOUND THESE IN THE FREEZER!” “ARE THESE DRUGS???” “WHAT IS THIS??” Like holy fuck, are you serious? Yeah, sure, they’re drugs, Mom. Cubed metal is all the rage on the streets these days. You just swallow them whole and get high as fuck.

    This conversation is so clumsy and awkward. Why take a good joke post and make it so much worse?

    ah yes, when someone tells me to “go get some water” I usually put it on a plate. Very natural.

    My mom did this to me when she found the thermal compound in a syringe. Didn’t bother to read the label.

      I was buying lubricants and flux for putting together keyboards and other soldering projects.

      My dad was like “look, I don’t know what drugs look like these days but it definitely looks weird when you’re getting multiple shipments of vials and syringes.”

      And, honestly, I don’t blame him. It looked pretty sus.

      My brothers and I filled a huge pickle jar with these and some water with the intent to let them sit for a few weeks to see how big they would get. We put them in my brother’s closet and promptly forgot about them for ~5 or so years. One day my brother heard a popping sound in his closet and when he opened it, putrid water was trickling down the closet shelf and soaking the carpet below. Something was growing in the jar and the built up pressure popped the lid, spilling a bunch of shit all over. The smell never quite left his room

    It is very important to reaffirm that you are talking to mom in a private chat with mom by referring to her as “mom” as often as possible.

    It’s funny, I was on the phone today with my Uncle who works at Nintendo and he was telling me about some secret cheat codes. He said that his girlfriend that lives in Canada had the EXACT same thing happen to her, except everyone clapped.
