I just may have to place an order for this one.

I’m a firm believer in the notion that “prescribed times for everyday things” don’t exist at airports. In my opinion, breakfast-for-dinner or an early morning beer are perfectly fine when you’re waiting for a flight.
The social media team at MCO (Orlando International Airport) agree with me, and being the consistently entertaining people they are, they managed to get Tampa Bay’s own John Cena to put on his Peacemaker costume and pose for this shot, which is oh-so-Florida.
Here’s the link to the Facebook post featuring this photo, and do yourself a favor and follow MCO on Facebook to stay informed and entertained.
It’s Sunday, and it’s time for another “picdump!” Here are the memes, pictures, and cartoons floating
around the internet that I found interesting or relevant this week. Share and enjoy!

Happy Labor Day 2025!
I hope that:
- If you have to work today: That work isn’t too busy or onerous today.
- If you don’t have to work today: That you have a relaxing one.
- If you don’t have to work today, but you’re working on your own thing: Hey, fellow hustler! Keep the faith, and don’t work too hard!

Language evolves with technology, and there’s no better example than the title of a Rolling Stone article posted yesterday: Elon Musk appears to be completely addicted to anime gooner AI slop.
The headline would be unintelligible to most people in North America in 2000:
- Elon Musk was not yet a household name at the time. If you wanted to evoke images of high tech with a mainstream audience, you’d mention Bill Gates or Steve Jobs.
- Anime had only started making headway into popular culture in the mid- to late 1990s thanks to Sailor Moon and Pokémon.
- At the time, the term gooner was limited to soccer, meaning “superfan of the Arsenal football club.” It had not yet become internet slang for “porn addict” or “chronic self-pleasurer.”
- The term “AI” would have been reasonably well known by then, and a year later, Syeven Spielberg’s film, A.I.: Artificial Intelligence, would be released.
- “AI slop” is a term that only got mainstream popularity last year thanks to programmer and tech blogger Simon Willison.
