That’s probably an actual quote? It’s so bad, I find it hard to tell.
- Comment on The face of dang ‘ol killer, I tell you hwhat 1 week ago:
This could genuinely be actual dialogue from True Blood.
I drunkenly hate watched a season and change of that ages ago and can still hear the vampire guy grunting “Sookeh.”

That’s a classic.

I charge both my ridiculous Lightning and PHEV Volvo this way.
But I’m on track for only about 3500 miles for the year (10 months in) on the lightning.

Well there was that time they were sued over not meeting the definition of “beef” (it’s apparently 88% beef, so yay?).
The uk horse meat “beef” scandal.
And the metal shavings scandal.
But mostly it’s just ultra-processed crap that has enough salt and fat to make people think it’s food.

- Comment on Just say the word 3 months ago:
I can empathize. I went back to work a month ago now. It was/is hard to be unavailable.
Luckily, I work from home in a fairly independent role and my wife is still on leave, so we’re still largely co-parenting. We could afford to have me stay at home, but we’re saying that the extra I make above the truly wild cost of daycare will go to his education, financial security, and cultural enrichment.
We’re also telling ourselves that daycare will be a positive/important social experience for him because we have a small friend group locally and family is halfway across the US.

Definitely going on my list of “memes you can hear” … Or at least we olds can.

I think we’re only missing Wham! Last Christmas for my nightmare list from working retail.
Well, and anything from the Amy Grant Xmas album, but that’s my dad’s fault.
Oh wait, can’t forget Christmas shoes… (Shudders involuntarily).

TRS-80 then IBM PCjr here. Both hand-me-downs though.
Mom wouldn’t let me on the 386 until I could touch-type and write a program in BASIC. She was a Cobol and IBM RPG programmer.

“Vexillophile” is a word you probably won’t ever need again.
- Comment on $1,000 richer 7 months ago:
Omg thank you for the money!
- Comment on God did not intend for us to fold fitted sheets, and if you can it's witchcraft. 7 months ago:
It’s really not bad with full elastic bands. Make a rough square using the point of the corners as one corner and the only non-elastic fold as the opposite. Just flop the sloppy elastic to the inside. I then fold in thirds and again in thirds. Just fold the weird parts to the inside each time.
My wife still thinks it’s magic after 20 years.
- Comment on The Steam Controller's stick is upgradeable! 7 months ago:
It is. I even got it working wirelessly once for shits and giggles using USB/IP.

Also don’t forget your locking nut key for those pesky lock nuts
Leaving only those will make for a bigger surprise a few minutes later when they take a corner at speed. Or hit a bump.
- Comment on Learn this one weird trick! 7 months ago:
Battery powered impact driver plus a deep socket set = you can remove lug nuts or bolts (securing a wheel to a vehicle) in very quick fashion.
- Comment on These mugs are getting out of hand 7 months ago:
You joke, but we learned “tons” and “metric tons” in elementary school.
I assume it’s the reason “metric” is used as an adjective this way.

Cheddar Cheeseius.
