The interesting thing about the scientific charts that have been used in these memes is how they often twist or oversimplify data while trying to hide Saddam Hussein to create a humorous effect. Although the scientific accuracy may be in question, please don't let this take away from the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and he fell 16 feet through an announcer’s table

Oh boy, I really miss some of those accounts with comedy bits and I just assume they stopped posting when I left reddit so that I don't have the urge to go back and double check.

When Lemmy was first coming online I ran an aggressive stroganoff facts subscription account, It was a lot of work but very rewarding, learned A LOT about stroganoff

Looks like you are interested in beef STROGANOFF! Thank you for confirming your subscription to beef stroganoff facts, where we send you daily fun facts about BEEF STROGANOFF! Did you know that in 1891 the French chef Charles Briere submitted a recipe for beef stroganoff to a competition sponsored by the French magazine L’ART CULINAIRE leading to the assumption that he was the inventor, but both the recipe and name existed before then!

Tbf, a lot of the novelty accounts died off by the time we all moved to lemmy. Sr grafo and shitty watercolor are the only ones I remember popping up regularly. I do miss the jumper cables guy thought. RIP
