We’re sure phrases like “novel types of debt structures” won’t give you flashbacks to the 2008 financial crisis.
I feel like John taking the Soy Sauce for the first time and knowing how many people are gonna explode
It is the fourth book in the John Dies at the End series
oh damn, I just gave the (fun but absolute mess of a) movie another watch and was wondering if they ever wrote more stories in the series — I knew they wrote a sequel to John Dies at the End, but I lost track of it after that. it looks like I’ve got a few books to pick up!
how are you this fucking mid?
In fact, they’re getting plenty of free publicity for using AI to make it thanks to articles like these
good thing there’s no such thing as bad publicity, otherwise this shit would be fucking embarrassing
I hereby vow to be extremely firm and extremely realistic
finally my pyramid scheme is coming to fruition
sneerchain, coming soon to an awful system near you
