Apple created HIEC for themselves. They use it within their own gargantuan ecosystem to their own, personal benefit and to the benefit of people all-in on Apple devices. When it’s time to send it outside, they automatically gets converted to JPEG/MOV files.

They do not care if you like it or if you even use it.

After all, we have CompuServe to thank for the proliferation of .gif.

Is that a picture of a wizard or a crab fisherman?

Of course you can start riding a bicycle again. It’s like riding a bicycle.

How I look after watching mommy die while I was a baby.

My clothes have artisanal wrinkling.

Tried really hard to summon a portal to Oblivion.

I’m shocked I got here first:

Bottom one is Wilford Brimley and Dr. Robotnix’s son.

In his order, abortion is: Homicide after 15 weeks and before a 24-hour waiting period, Legal at your convenience, Legal at your convenience but only if the mother is in danger, Homicide after 18 weeks and before a 72-hour waiting period.

The only way to perform an abortion on that spot that is 100% legal is if it is done before 15 weeks, after waiting 72 hours, and the mother’s life is in danger.

There’s a whole episode of The Cleveland Show (as in Cleveland Brown, the black character from Family Guy) where Cleveland gets upset at his neighbor friend for flying a Confederate flag on his house and finally tries to get rid of it. When he fails, he confronts the hick neighbor and calls him a racist. The neighbor doesn’t understand why Cleveland is upset and when Cleveland points to the flag the neighbor says, “What, my Dukes of Hazard flag?”

Cleveland immediately realizes he approached the problem from the completely wrong angle and drops the matter indefinitely. They continue to be friends.
