Feel like a lot of comic strips I’ve seen lately are effectively nudging the audience and saying “aren’t I just so relatable?”

Maybe, but I’d prefer if they went back to being funny.

Other power sources also cause visual pollution and I like windmills better than columns of smoke.

Once The Man figures out that windmills would make good persistence-of-vision displays to play adverts on, I’m going to start burning them down.

You could do the job with less, but you’d grumble about it.

I think the shower in my current house is luxurious because it’s large enough that I can turn around without knocking things off the shower caddy.

I feel like I’ve already shit enough in my life.

If that page loaded for me, what could I expect to see on it?

Spend more time on my hobbies that don’t involve a computer. There’s more prep work, yeah - but the results are more satisfying too.

In Tonga it’s still a common practice to bury relatives in front of your home.

I have an Acer Swift 5 and Linux Mint/Cinnamon. It worked from the start, no issues ever.

I don’t swear often because that makes it so much more satisfying when I do. It’s like rationing out my favourite snacks.

Don’t you put that evil on me. That sounds like a decent approximation of hell.

My First Regular Expressions

I’ve been reading Mastering Regular Expressions by Jeffrey E.F. Friedl, and since nobody in my life (aside from my wife) cares, I thought I’d share something I’m pretty proud of. My first set of regular expressions, that I wrote myself to manipulate the text I’m working with....

I use it to tell me which page of the Pathfinder 1e manual I should look on for the rules I need.

Anyone else a bit suspicious of a skinny chef?

I was going through some stuff and installing Arch from scratch was the only way I could feel anything at all.

Every now and then I see that laptop and think "I should keep going and install those power management scripts ". Then I think “nah”.

My wife hates that I forgot what chicken nuggets are and called them ‘meat dots’. Of course I don’t call them anything else now.

By the time it’s said, someone’s landed six of them.

Is there an artist so horrible that no matter how hard you try that you cannot separate their art from them?

Similar to the recent question about artists where you can successfully separate them from their art. Are there any artists who did something so horrible, so despicable, that it has instantly invalidated all art that they have had any part in?

I know he used the Papyrus font for his book, but c’mon. It’s free.

I’m convinced he’s not all there. Dude was talking about what he’s going to do when he gets out of prison. He doesn’t seem to understand they’re going to wheel him out on a trolley.

I’ve heard he’s a crappy musician but he’s good at getting clashing personalities to work together.

What is Something Scientific that you just don't believe in at all?

EDIT: Let’s cool it with the downvotes, dudes. We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something...

It’s a statistical science. While other branches can be all like “splitting atoms will definitely give you an energetic reaction” psychology is like "this helps in 60% of cases so we’re gonna try it on you ".

I missed it, but I was in my early teens when I read it. What did you spot?

That’s the problem with threads like this - you meet your heroes.

My mother-in-law’s cat almost got either declawed or euthanised when he started having epileptic seizures and attacking her face. It wasn’t intentional, he was an affectionate and gentle cat when he wasn’t seizing. Luckily, he seemed to grow out of it.
