Definitely thought you meant hair plugs at first, and that there was an app to give you male pattern baldness.

That’s a term I haven’t heard in a very, very long time. I keep one in a drawer with my Sound Blaster PCMCIA card.

1.5 cloves was definitely not enough; 1.5 bulbs may have been pushing it though.

That’s a theory I can get behind. Or in front of. Whatever.

If it’s a conservative meme, they just didn’t have any black women available for the picture.

That’s a thorough explanation, very much appreciated. I’d like to do more than just say thanks but I have nothing to add to the conversation.
- Comment on Seedless Catholics Against Watermelons? 5 weeks ago:
They do. I had this conversation the other day, and it led to Bill Gates trying to to basically monopolize farming. It was right before a five-hour meeting and so I forgot to research it at all after, but you have just reminded me.
Back on topic though, I can’t find seedless watermelons anywhere. I live in Jersey (New), and my local supermarket is and has been seedless for at least a decade. I can’t recall the last time I enjoyed watermelon with a seed. My presumption was that they’re stopping us from growing them at home. I’m sure it’s much more (or less) nuanced than that. I’m an idiot.

That’s only 30% of toes, unless we’re going by overall volume.

They’re what the French call “les incompetentes”.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Right? It’s the basic test. I have come to terms that I’m really basically smart, but when things get more detailed I’m pretty regular.
I was so smart I became an 11 though, instead of perhaps a job with life skills, for a life other than LEO. No regrets though, made some lifelong friends, got stupid tattoos, visited some cool places, and I get $170 a month for tinnitus.

Do you have recycle and trash? It’s the way to go. I bag the trash but I dump the recycling into the large can outside and then reuse that dirty bag for garbage. I’m essentially saving the world.
Nice to know there are others out there! Great bins, unlike poor OP.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I will commiserate with you. I think the shape of that can is ultimately your issue. In fact, I know it is, I’ve seen that can and anytime I’ve seen it, the bag looks like yours. So you’re not alone.
As an aside, if you intend on joining the military, especially if you enlist, nobody cares about your ASVAB score, and if you wield it like a weapon, others will use it against you. I knew ASVAB waivers who had quick wit. I served with dudes who paraded around their conventional intelligence and had a tough time making friends, and only when they dropped the whole smart guy act did they fit in better.
Your post tickled my funny bone tonight. I wish you well and I hope you can “adapt and overcome” as it relates to this issue.

Think you nailed it. But then we can’t make jokes about this post anymore.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I love that you came here and I think everything you said is fair.
I love OP’s response though, this whole thread is hilarious.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I took my ASVAB in 2009, so unless it’s in my SRB somewhere, you’ll have to take my word for it.
I did upload a picture of my garbage though, that should be proof enough.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I knew some very intelligent individuals in the military. We were all enlisted and we all knew how to put a shit can liner in a shit can. And not one of us went around waving our ASVAB dick around.
Love a good old fashioned OP roast though.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
So smart you joined the military.
I can say that because I was a 99 ASVAB and a dumb grunt.
- Comment on It's important to get a good interest rate 1 month ago:
I just use credit for everything and hover in the 820s. Unless there’s some substantial discount for paying cash I just don’t see the point these days.
That being said, my wonderful credit score ain’t doing shit for me. It’s not like I get some magical super low interest rate. Maybe when things calm down it’ll be worth it, but then there will be some other reason not to borrow money.

- Comment on The ad in the middle of this article about conspiracy theories 1 month ago:
Right? Do you remember going to websites and your computer would yell out that you were watching porn? Ads would burst forth like you just won fucking Solitaire. Shit took forever to download, and if you lost connection in the middle, start over!
I guess if you started using the Internet after like 2008, when things really started to take off, you saw a golden hour. But it was a dangerous place in the early 2000s, although I learned a lot about how to unfuck computers in my quest for boobs as a teenager.
- Comment on Why are SMS messages so expensive? 1 month ago:
Yeah, I remember when they started rolling out data plans and they were hefty and the Internet on phones was useless. Then GPS on your phone was an add-on, also hefty. So it’s definitely improved.
- Comment on Why are SMS messages so expensive? 1 month ago:
This was certainly in the US at one point. I remember having 500 per month, which was an absolute joke for 16 year old me with a girlfriend the next town over, and paying 25 send and 5 receive afterwards. Old cell plans were absolute trash.
- Comment on HOAs suck 2 months ago:
Who’s paying for the maintenance? What happens in the event of an “act of God”? What is “the community” you speak of? I don’t know what this has to do with greed. Things cost money. You need to have a structure for how costs are levied amongst homeowners. I don’t get what is so difficult to understand. Would you prefer there just be a bunch of lawsuits when any little thing goes wrong?
- Comment on HOAs suck 2 months ago:
I’m talking about subdivisions of single-family homes that requested greater density and as a giveback to the municipality remain private rights-of-way and utilities in exchange for greater density. You want to build 100 homes on 1-acre lots but the municipality has 2-acre zoning. It’s a farm so there are no utilities and you’re building it all from scratch. Municipalities will say sure you can do greater density, but you’ll create an HOA for the maintenance of utilities and for the stormwater management BMPs you have on the property, and you’ll create an operations and maintenance manual for those BMPs, and you’ll bond with the municipality in the event you fail to maintain them. That’s what HOAs are literally for, not for deciding on housing color and if you can fly a flag.

Sewer main leaks. Need to replace a 6 foot section of 8 inch line right in the middle of the road. Also need to replace the connection to the city main because the mess of baby wipes clogging it damaged it and the city says it’s unusable now. Effluent also damaged a gas line and the gas company says that needs to be replaced but they can work within the water company’s schedule. Gonna cost like 800 grand. Tell me about the community? Because that’s probably the insurance that the HOA procured who will cover the costs.
- Comment on HOAs suck 2 months ago:
There has to be some entity. I won’t disagree that they get out of control, but at the foundation they serve a very specific purpose. Once again, people are the problem. Perhaps AI will take over and robots will live in the houses.
- Comment on HOAs suck 2 months ago:
And they also pay to maintain shared services, like utilities and stormwater management. It’s not black and white.
