The Professor saying “hoes” is unreasonably funny
-
anyone other than ryan: breathes the professor: here's a jellybean
-
For real though, shit must have looked nuts to the natives. I mean, imagine a bunch of total strangers moved into your backyard and then straight up started eating each other. I mean Jesus 😨
-
Everyone in this story is morally grey exept for the friend who warned them and the native dudes who just were vibing UNTIL THE CANNIBALISM STARTED
-
Me n my homies drunk on campus: “lets throw up in the bergara bin”
-
The Professor refusing to give Ryan any jellybeans is the origin story of Ricky Goldsworth
-
Sometimes I forget that the stories of the Oregon Trail are sometimes real and not a musical on acid
-
"I don't do math, I'm cute" is the funniest and most accurate thing to say. I love her lmao

“I’m disgusted, I’m flabbergasted, and I laughed a lot.” - my journal entry for summing up 2020

“he died naturally of being murdered by me”😭
-
as someone who goes to Ryan's old college I would appreciate being able to chuck my Bruxie's in the Bergara Bin
-
I hope Joyce and the professor get to go on their vacation some day
-
Yo, shoutout to these Miwok natives. 1) They stuck with them for quite a while and through a lot of their shit even though they owed nothing to them 2) They knew when to split aka the line is drawn at cannibalism

My therapist: Genie Shane doesn’t exist Genie Shane:

If I remember correctly, the man james Reed stabbed was beating an animal and got violent with Mrs. Reed. James tried to stop him and ultimately resorted to stabbing him. So, not necessarily the bad guy
-
So my 10 year old’s teacher asked the class if anyone had heard of the Donner Party and my little one raised her hand and pretty much took over the class. Thanks to this video. I got a text from the teacher asking how/why she knew so much about such a grisly thing. So yeah...that was my week. How’re you guys doing?
-
“He did he died naturally of being murdered by me!”
-
Broke: Shane is a human Woke: Shane is a demon Bespoke: Shane is a GENIE
-
the fact that the professor said “Indigenous Americans” really made me smile
-
Patrick Breen had seven children. Apparently, it wasn't hard for him to get wood after all. Also, Patrick, his wife, and all seven kids got through this. The Breen family came out of this ordeal completely intact.
