Wait, I posted, but only once, do I give a shit, too? What are the rules here
- Comment on How soon do you get there? 1 week ago:
On my way out, from my normal airport, I’ve got it timed pretty well so that I leave my house 90 minutes from boarding and I’m through security with 15-30 minutes to spare.
On my way back, from the scary unknown airport, I like to arrive at least 2 hours before boarding, because who knows what kind of crazy hoops you’re going to have to jump through.
- Comment on Can a U.S. president premptively pardon themself? 1 week ago:
I would like to see this immunity tested thoroughly very soon
- Comment on slow cooker 1 week ago:
The top reads like a Mitch Hedberg joke
- Comment on The Community behind Daggerfall Online has now introduced MTX 2 weeks ago:
That sucks. I haven’t been following it, was this a sudden but inevitable betrayal? Was it ever going to be anything else?
- Comment on Do millennials keep looking significantly more youthful than previous generations? 2 weeks ago:
There’s probably some survivorship bias going on here. You’re not really going to see pictures of people who have been unattractive their whole lives, I wouldn’t think.

Finally, the real reason we gave AI the ability to make images
- Comment on How important is owning your own video games to you? 4 weeks ago:
People are fine paying for movies that end, too, but that’s the deal. MMOs have a monthly subscription, if you don’t like it don’t pay it, but if you sell me something I’m gonna think I own it.
- Comment on Pfft 4 weeks ago:
Well that, at least, makes sense in that it’s really just an exercise in finding evidence for your argument.
- Comment on Is there a place online where I can buy a US 50 cent piece for like a buck or two dollars? Trying to learn the coin rolling thing across the knuckles. 1 month ago:
What about a similarly sized steel blank or poker chip?
- Comment on US will allow truckers to drive 16 hours per day instead of the previous limit of 14 hours 1 month ago:
WCGR?
- Comment on Do most Americans vote just based on name recognizing without any thinking of the platform? Or pigeon hole a candidate to one issue and vote for them? Even if that issue is way against beliefs? 2 months ago:
Yes, single-issue voters exist. For many, just saying that you’re anti-abortion is enough.
- Comment on [The Matrix (movie, 1999)] What does agent Brown's line mean? 2 months ago:
I, too, originally took the line to mean that Smith didn’t know what he was doing, like he was out of his mind, which played into the deranged speech he’d just given. Turns out I was reading way too far into it.
- Comment on Minimum wage isn't survivable anymore 2 months ago:
My personal conspiracy theory behind the covid-era spread of tipping culture was to get employees to accept tips as a part of their income. Once it reaches a certain threshold you’re legally allowed to pay the real minimum wage because the rest is subsidized by the customer.
- Comment on Food served to US service men & women. 2 months ago:
I think maybe a little misleading, but probably not fake. For the boxed meal, that shit happened all the time. It’s just like going through the drive through.
For meals served on ships, most of the time you ask for what you want, they don’t just give you what they have. If you have a piece of bread on your tray, that’s because you only grabbed a piece of bread. Most of the time.
Sometimes there’s just not a lot of options because you haven’t been replenished in a while and the cooks have already done what they can to keep people from bitching at them constantly. Fresh fruits and vegetables are always the first to spoil, so eventually everything is canned, frozen, rehydrated, or reconstituted. Or baked from scratch, poorly.
- Comment on Bet you read that wrong 2 months ago:
My brain is so good at detecting patterns that I realize that I shouldn’t even engage with this
- Comment on Attorney general: ‘Everyone is Welcome Here’ sign cannot be displayed in Idaho schools 2 months ago:
Maybe the school could be given a list of the groups of people who are welcome. Make em spell it out, if “everyone” is too broad.

Let me speak to the day’s manager, please

Haha, that didn’t even register!
- Comment on what the fuck is that allowed??? 3 months ago:
If you’ve ever been on one you know that even being slightly off center is going to spill you into the water. I doubt a gator could even get on a floaty long ways like that
- Comment on In Star Wars, what would it mean "to bring balance to The Force?" 3 months ago:
Why lol here? The sequels are a bit hollow, so this seems like it would be true almost no matter what, but not having seen acolyte I can’t draw a fair comparison.
- Comment on In Star Wars, what would it mean "to bring balance to The Force?" 3 months ago:
Did everyone share qui gon’s view that Anakin was going to do that? Or was it just him and obi wan?
- Comment on idiot you tuber leaving his 50 cal on the ground pointed at the picnic table 4 months ago:
Imagine not leaving your weapons clear and safe, pointing downrange

Spiner does a great Stewart impersonation, I love it every time
- Comment on Settle a debate can potato's and noodles go together and taste great with sauce and other things? (I say it can) However my mother says two starches should never be cooked because it's too much. 4 months ago:
Rice pilaf would like a word with your starch-deprived mother
- Comment on The function of your product is WHAT?? 4 months ago:
No way that air pistol is shooting anything other than plastic BBs, but that does look like an Asherman chest seal for a sucking chest wound
- Comment on Indie Dev Says Game Refunded 55,000 Times Via Steam Loophole 4 months ago:
If it’s good enough that I finished it I’m gonna let the creator keep the money (and pay close attention to the reviews next time, because I agree that less than 2 hours is a little short for that amount of entertainment) and make myself feel better by treating it like a donation to a good cause.
- Comment on 4 months ago:
Those were the sorts of stories I heard about unions when I was growing up. Want to clean up a mess? Sorry, union rules say you have to wait for another guy to get here to do it.
I always felt like unions just got in the way of doing things logically or quickly, but I’m pretty sure those stories and comments were intended to do that. Nowadays I know better, and I agree with you: we need unions now more than ever.
- Comment on If I went to a mechanic for my car and told them I had a problem with the aft starboard tire would they think I'm a dork? 4 months ago:
How far abaft of the beam? How far from centerline? Is that first or second deck?

Why would he be sad? I thought that was the point. What better way to distract from the other distractions?
