    I Did That!

    I Did That! is a phrase found on stickers typically picturing U.S. President Joe Biden pointing at the price of gasoline on fuel pumps in gas stations around the United States as a way to claim that he increased gas prices. The stickers have also been placed on empty store shelves.

    The current system is that official music videos get tagged with music videos and everything that isn't one as videos. But I have a plan.

    'Seagull Boy', nine, wins European screeching competition

    A nine-year-old British boy has won a European championship with his uncanny impression of a seagull.

    He originally started doing seagull impressions after being nipped by one while he was eating a tuna sandwich.

    He wanted to become "Seagull Boy", like when Peter Parker became Spider-Man after being bitten by a spider.

    Tildes is a very serious site, where we discuss very serious matters like net neutrality, agreements.noncompete and tiktok. Tags culled from the highest voted topics from the last seven days, if anyone was a nosey parker.

    But one of my favourite tags happens to be offbeat! Taking its original inspiration from Sir Nils Olav III, this thread is looking for any far-fetched offbeat stories lurking in the newspapers. It may not deserve its own post, but it deserves a wider audience!
