Ha, commenter on the last one called it.

HONK

My to do list app had a wrapped and I was deeply displeased to see it.

Definitely how I started, and there is definitely something to be said about playing a game where nobody knows what’s going on, as long as everyone understands that’s going to be the state of things and are willing to work together. Whenever something came up we weren’t sure about we’d ALL dive on the rule books, not just the GM.

There’s Peertube but it’s a model that requires a lot more people to work well. I tried to watch a video but nobody was seeding. That was my first experience with it.

It’s a good read! I recommend catching the backstory on the linked pages!

And if you’re lucky, you don’t slice yourself on the plastic bastard.

Just reposting, not the author!

A proper return to ‘Don’t Feed the Trolls’

Another extremely compelling episode, I love these.

I’m with you on the confusion because it’s like… I don’t feel the need to act this way, why do other people? What drives them that, in a void, they resort to these thoughts and behaviors? Is this who they really are, or is it an act, like doing an evil playthrough in a game. “I want to because I can here, and I can’t anywhere else?”

Isn’t that just what Firefox was before it was Firefox?

USA! USA! USA!

Not the above poster but I’ve had dentists share the same sentiment and mostly I’ve heard it’s because the majority of their patients who use it, use it as a replacement for more thorough dental care–they don’t floss and/or brush because they think they’re getting clean enough with the pik. The dentist who told me this basically said, “It’s fine as a supplement after you brush and after you floss, to flush out any lingering debris from those two activities, but it’s really just not worth the time or money.”

To your credit, language is indeed an ever-evolving thing and what words mean what is not a constant, particularly in this age of internet.

Point against you, is that means that a ‘meme’ is largely whatever the majority of people think it is.

Love your comment.

I actually got curious and tried to fact check this but then realized I had no way of knowing which sites really offered actual advice to such an inane little fact, or were just making shit up. :(

Your rage is justified and the phrase “It’s an attack on our personal space” absolutely nails it.

The fact that this meme is using Smithers is particularly ironic

I bet!! It sounds like you had a truly exhausting day!

I guess I’m surprised because I’ve never been at a hotel that didn’t have a lobby open 24/7. Sure you can’t check in, but I’m surprised you couldn’t plop down in a seat in the lobby and read or browse on your phone until you could check in.
