It's nowhere near October, but one ensemble is already on track to be named the most controversial Halloween costume of 2015.

Social media users were out in full force on Monday criticizing several Halloween retailers for offering a Caitlyn Jenner costume reminiscent of the former-athlete's Vanity Fair cover earlier this year.

While Jenner's supporters condemned the costume as "transphobic" and "disgusting" on Twitter, Spirit Halloween, a retailer that carries the costume, defended the getup.

"At Spirit Halloween, we create a wide range of costumes that are often based upon celebrities, public figures, heroes and superheroes," said Lisa Barr, senior director of marking at Spirit Halloween. "We feel that Caitlyn Jenner is all of the above and that she should be celebrated. The Caitlyn Jenner costume reflects just that."
 
Be careful people, there are people on Kiwifarms that will kill your cats if you let them walk around in your private back yard.



Come again? Do you know where I live? My cats never made a mess on anyone's property. I do know some weirdo neighbors started feeding them after I told them specifically to stop and return my cats to me cause they disappeared.

ive killed many cats in my life time and one of them might have been yours 🤔
 
With all that's going on in the world right now, the cops have better things to do than listen to your insane ramblings

This happened 2 years ago.

With all that's going if you faggots know what's good for you, I'm not calling the cops again, I'll just kill you myself.

Try harassing me again. Go ahead.
 
There's no general thread for sports articles in Hulkamania, so this seems like the next best thing.

SI was probably gonna die anyway, like so many other businesses after corona-chan.

Notorious sports world troll Barry McCocknier strikes again:

Very often Barry spreads fake news about sports to scare people up. It's a fucking riot whenever his Tweets trend.
 
I found a lost kitten a couple years ago and put up notices in the usual places. With Craigslist I got like six weirdos offering to take it while rambling about how many of their cats were "stolen", "poisoned", and other disjointed shit.
Someone stole 3 of my cats and poisoned 2 over a period of 4 years.
Ah yes. The lucrative cat-stealing business. I hear pure uncut persian long-hair sells for $1000/kg on the street
But how did you know about my cats being outside?
Because if they broke into your house to steal them you would have said something. It would be weird to omit important details like that when telling a story.

Man discovers his girlfriend buried his stockpile of beans in the woods in case coronavirus 'gets bad'

Beans may be good for your heart, but they’re not always good for relationships.

A story recently appeared on social media outlets about a couple who got into a fight over a stockpile of canned beans. Apparently, they couldn’t agree on whether to eat them immediately or keep them buried in the woods and save them for "if things get bad" (regarding the coronavirus pandemic).



The story was posted to Twitter, although it reportedly originally appeared on Reddit. While the original post apparently was deleted, a Twitter account dedicated to the “relationships” subreddit shared the original text.

According to the post, the unnamed author bought 30 cans of beans and 15 cans of chickpeas in preparation for the coronavirus lockdown. According to the story, one night he opened the cabinet to make some chili and found the beans gone.

“I asked my girlfriend,” he wrote, “and she told me she buried all of the beans in the woods.”

After realizing that she wasn’t joking, the author said his girlfriend explained that she wanted to save the beans for “if things get bad.” When the boyfriend accused her of being “ridiculous,” she reportedly responded that she was “protecting our beans.”

According to the story, the girlfriend buried the beans because “canned food was most valuable for long-terms means.” The author claimed she said she planned on burying more beans in the woods.

Apparently, the argument escalated (with the girlfriend apparently declaring that she will never “jeopardize the beans”) and the couple stopped speaking to each other. Their story has received over 23 thousand responses.

On Twitter, users seemed generally amused by the details of the story. One response read, “No strong relationship can ever be formed if you hide beans from each other.”

Another user explained, “I will never jeopardize the beans’ has broken me, I need a drink.”

Of course, not everyone was amused. One user, who apparently struggled to obtain food, wrote, “As someone who is a vegetarian I am very angry at people like this for making it impossible to cook dinner for myself. I can’t find beans right now because preppers are hoarding them. I’m so glad all the beans are buried in the woods instead of part of my usual nightly meals.”

In a surprising development that shocked his supporters, the Prince of Darkness today announced his resignation, effective immediately.
“I can’t keep up with Donald Trump” Mephistopheles complained.

According to an insider close to both sides, negotiations were tough, but the devil finally agreed to let Trump own and star on The Apprentice – Hades.

“Whoever has a controlling interest in that owns Hell,” the insider explained, adding, “I don’t really care, do you?”

Asked when the series will begin, Satan was definitive. “Given Donald’s health, filming will begin ASAP,” he said.

When questioned further about his own role in the series, the Anti-Christ was uncharacteristically modest: “I’ll just be a mere contestant. We’re expecting an all-star cast: Rush Limbaugh, most of the leadership of Iran.”

“The competition will be fierce! But with Trump running the show, it’s well worth it to be a contestant,” he noted. “I’d sell my soul to Trump for the chance to learn from the best.”

Looking back on his accomplishments, the King of Hell was nostalgic: “It’s been a good few millennia,” he noted. “War, pestilence, bigotry, Lindsey Graham. I’m proud of my record.”

“I certainly never expected to be replaced. Still, it’s important to recognize superior talent when it comes along.”

For his many fans, the Prince of Darkness pledged he wouldn’t disappear entirely. “You can still catch me on reruns of I Love Lucifer, or live 24/7 on Fox News.”

“I guess Trump is my own damned fault,” confessed Beelzebub. “I knew I should’ve used a condom when I f**ked his Mom.”
 
FWIW, the 🧩 isn't for you.

Gotta love how these people are stuck in 2003 and by bringing in stuff about hell and god they're owning the fundies who barely exist as a political force anymore. Gotta get back at that pastor who said they'd go to hell for playing with Yu-Gi-Oh cards or whatever.
