Someone trolled Slate magazine's advice column with total success.

Quote from: Dear Prudence
Q. But I like this ring: My uncle “Bill” adopted me several years ago and we lived together. I have a relationship with him like a father and a son. Bill retired last year and decided to move to a retirement community. He gave me our house as my own, and he gave away a bunch of his other possessions at a big party. In addition to the house, he gave me a really nice ring. I absolutely love it, and I love the way I feel when I wear it.

However, a family friend, “Greg,” doesn’t approve of the ring. He showed me an inscription inside the ring that shows it came from a war. Greg said it was a horrible war, and I shouldn’t keep the ring.

Greg, in fact, thinks I should destroy it! I asked my friends what they think, and they told me they will support whatever I do. What do you think?

A: The inscription is on the inside of the ring, meaning no one will see it. And the ring’s meaning to you has to do with Bill (and the fact that you really like how it looks), not what it says inside. I don’t see an issue here, and I wish Greg would mind his own business and leave you alone. Wear it in peace!

Now it's my turn to miss a pop culture reference. What was that one from?

If I see one more pop culture criticism that consists entirely of "it was lazy writing," I'm going to blow a gasket.

You realise that unless there is some substance to your criticism, unless you can articulate what was actually wrong with the writing, why you didn't like it, then you're just being a hypocrite, right?

Did anyone else play or watch a plathrough of the horror game disguised as a dating sim called Doki Doki Literature Club? Well someone came up with a spin off Disney Channel-esque cartoon for fun.

It's not only funny as heck, it's also unironically a pretty good explanation of the service.
