I’m now imagining an ominous Vine boom everytime the shooter interacted with someone that day.

Doin’ that JavaScript math

Why does it even look like he’s saying, “feet”?

Definitely not the veterans I know, who wait months to receive middling at best medical care

I was going to say similar. Maybe their allotted benefits look attractive, but good luck receiving them in any useful timeframe. Even taking the article at face value, they have “absurd” benefits in theory, but get a fraction of them in practice.

My issue with MH was the extensive grinding. Getting a full set of armor from a monster could take dozens of kills, with each kill being 30-60 minutes. If I knew I could get it after a flat 10 or even 20 victories it’d be fine, but you’re at the mercy of 5% drop rates sometimes.

Maybe they’ve never seen the original? It is a bit deep fried here, but that would still make me feel old.

Absolutely. My spouse looks at me like I’m crazy for putting black blankets on the floor in front of all the south-facing windows, but it’s a noticeable difference in those rooms. I also keep the leftover pasta and kettle water out until it’s cooled down instead of dumping hot water down the drain. Helps to avoid running the humidifier too.

This is obviously funny, but I think the end result will be a bit sad. Spammers will (or already are) start to use similar AI programs to cold call people, then transfer to the scammer if they’ve got a live one. Eventually we’re just going to be heating the Earth so that invisible chatbots can have conversations no human will ever hear.

That’s my primary gripe too. I could theoretically work around it if the chat search worked. I’ll try searching for a specific word to see who said it to me and when, but if it was more than a couple days ago I’m out of luck. Later I’ll remember who said it, eventually find them in the sidebar, scroll up 40 pages in the chat, and find the exact word Teams claimed it’s never heard of.

Every time people ask me where the architecture is heading I think, “How should I know? I just graduated; someone above me will figure that out.” Then I realize it’s been almost 20 years and I am actually expected to know how databases work and I am one of the most senior in the department. I feel like this goose a lot.

I know a couple people like that. Once you know it’s better to stop wasting your breath. Just respond with, “Not much,” and physically move on. Definitely don’t say, “Not much. You?” because then you’re forced to sit through whatever they wanted to talk about when they asked. Better to cut it short and talk to people you share interests with or who at least know how to have a conversation.

Am I blind or is this the exact same as the posted comic?

Exactly what I was going to say because this hit me a while back. I still have no good solution; I have to delete shows/movies from the *arr then manually delete them from qbitorrent too.

This happened extensively to the US Japanese jammed into internment camps during WWII.

Easily one of my favorite shows, but I still upvoted you. Rock your own opinion.

I rewatch every time my depression flares up, and I’m even more depressed by the end. And I hate Bojack more each time instead of instinctively siding with him. But I come out the other side feeling a little lighter, almost like having a good cry from a sad movie.

I watched so much when I was younger but I pretty much stopped 6 or 7 years ago. I’ll watch a Miyazaki movie if my spouse grabs it, but I won’t seek them out.

There was just too much fan service, filler, and melodrama. Not enough substance to make it worth it. My last attempt was My Hero Academia. It was all the tropes I was tired of and I couldn’t get into it. My friend who was watching it with me said it was satirizing those tropes, but I had given up.

I’m sure there are some incredible shows I’m missing out on, and I definitely don’t judge those who still enjoy it. I just don’t line up with the grooves anymores.

That last line is one reason we’re able to fish successfully. Even large fish tire out because they can’t pull enough oxygen from the water to struggle forever.
