• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨how do I become the dullest, most boring coworker so this needy man leaves me alone?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I once had a co-worker like this named Andrew. One morning, while he scrambled to fill any moments of silence, I told him “Andrew, silence is ok sometimes” and went back to my work. He was significantly less annoying to work with afterwards.

  I probably came off as a bit of a dick, though it wasn’t my intention.

  I hate how much I laughed at this. I’m never growing up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought you need $401k to retire.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Emiy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  At first I was like “this shit makes no sense and isn’t funny”

  Then I got it and was proud of myself like I had actually accomplished something.

  Take your fucking upvote and get out of here.

  Is there something I’m missing? It wasn’t clear to me that he doesn’t have a mask or can’t get one.

  Fuuuuck it’s addictive. Love that I get it with Apple Arcade.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do social workers get upset when you don't want their help?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks for sharing. Glad you’re happy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do social workers get upset when you don't want their help?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Honest question:

  How do you make money for things like food, automobile costs, and your connected device (assuming phone)? I’m not trying to make a broader point. I am genuinely curious.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's true, I really do have concepts of a plan. Beyond that..?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I love how fast this is happening.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨M*crosoft's search engine is borderline unusable⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s amazing how bad that is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨These motivational messages on the computer screen in an emergency department hospital room⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean I’m sure your situation sucks, but I can’t believe this could be even mildly infuriating. Should they have a space screen saver? Should they have images that remind people how fucked they might be? It’s cheesy shit, sure, but sheesh.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit Undeleted all my posts and comments⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Bro…what?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do any "thickening" products actually work to prevent hair loss/thinning?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I started thinning rapidly in my early 20s which prompted me to act. Within a few months the thinning stopped and in the back I’ve been about the same since. Front started thinning a few years ago which prompted the finasteride and that seems to be slowing it.

  I don’t know for sure, you’re right, but I also see no incentive to prove my experience wrong since the risk isn’t worth it, to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do any "thickening" products actually work to prevent hair loss/thinning?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I started using Rogaine (generic versions) when I was around 25. I’m 40 now. It slowed my hair loss considerably and I have a pretty good head of hair still. My dad was completely done by 35.

  I recently added Finasteride to the mix and I’m comfortable with the results.

  Some people will tell you to embrace it and that’s ok too. I just didn’t want to if I didn’t have to.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump's answer today reminded me of his infamous "Nuclear" quote.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Now that Biden is out and there’s less of a glass house scenario, Democrats need to be harping on these long, tangential rants of a weird old man.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨He was ahead of his time⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Lee Harvey flossed after pulling the trigger.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I need new glasses. The only insurance-approved place I can shop online will cost $250 with my needs. I went to a "cheap" glasses website that doesn't accept insurance: $250. Yay, America.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The lack of coverage of teeth and eyes in standard health insurance is because of dentists and optometrists opting out when insurance was becoming a thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨mods finally doing the holy work ❤️⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  To each their own but it seems silly to remove a post because you don’t find it funny when it’s not something outright offensive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hello I think you'll love this house.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s like the original blueprints were a word document and the architect tried to paste in an image.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what's your experience washing sneakers in the washing machine?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I bought a mesh sneaker bag from Amazon that is designed to keep them safe in the wash and it seems to do the trick each time. Just be sure to take out in the insole before washing.

  Steamer game, represent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I ordered my daughter a pizza, something I don't usually do. I got Domino's smallest size with two toppings. I got her cheese sticks and two sauces and tipped the driver 20%. $31.07.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It would have only cost $22.40 if you picked it up yourself.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The only time it's ok to snitch...⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Heard it on News Max. Must be true.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review to access the playtest⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m assuming it’s with regards to the Play Test which is in very early stages and shouldn’t be judged as completed. Seems fair enough if it’s nowhere near complete

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Too soon?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That one got me as soon as I zoomed in. It’s perfect. No notes needed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I was handed this lovely flyer while grocery shopping⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d be more annoyed that this person couldn’t even bother me with a more up to date conspiracy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My phone is not for phone calls⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  “A bit, but I can text. What’s up?”

  I’ve learned to reply like that every time and it works. It convinces them to text me and if I see it’s important, I say something like “give me a few minutes and I’ll call”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wayfair's call center insists you give them your SSN before they'll file a report for credit fraud⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wayfair won’t be able to help you. You have to go through Citi if you don’t have an identity service. It’s wild that someone from Wayfair asked for your social.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FF Evangelists⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m all for people using Firefox instead of Chrome, but RAM being used up shouldn’t be a complaint unless something else needs that RAM. If it’s there, it should be considered usable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hustle tip⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a type of cracker.
