My favorite part of Win10 is how much its default configuration looks like the hospital screen in idiocracy.

My mind is boggling that you think every Windows app or utility lives in Microsoft’s “Appstore”

Hell, I’d appreciate it if some of the people that text me at least try to form a complete thought before sending. There are at least a handful of them that seem to hit enter after every few words because they’re afraid that the message will disappear forever if they don’t send it RIGHT NOW and I get 8 rapid-fire…

I almost always send single texts with multiple sentences vs separate texts for each sentence. Maybe this makes me an old, but I prefer receiving texts this way as well. I hate hearing my phone sound off three different alerts for what is essentially one text/thought from a friend. I feel the long text with proper…

Right. Who said that? Ernest Hemingway?

This. A cocktail should not be called a martini if it doesn’t have gin.

The proper ratio is easily obtained by using 3 oz of gin (shaken/stirred at your option), and *whisppering* “vermouth” over the rim while serving.

“Over-produced” is a pretty accurate criticism, I think. Which is kind of odd, considering the host segments in the original were a lot more creative and playful and “risky” in their production, and ultimately felt better directed.

My issue with the fast riffing is that it totally lost the vibe of three guys casually riffing along with the movie and made it feel like a writers’ room full of dudes punching in as many jokes as possible. It was sort of symptomatic of the problem I had with the Netflix reboot in general, which is that it felt way too…

Unpopular opinion: the Netflix MST3K is traaaaaaaaash. They try way too hard to fill all of the time with jokes, including talking over the dialogue in the movies, which the original show very rarely did. It’s like they don’t trust their material and feel like they need to pack as many jokes in as possible. The…

I believe the benefits of testing at this stage are that we can identify who is sick and restrict their movements, and increase the mobility of those not infected/recovered. I have no idea how that would work - the incubation period means people would have to be re-tested every few days, possibly? But that’s the…

You realize I wasn’t advocating this approach, that it was discussion amongst local business owners and chamber folk? They can check themselves.

In mild doses it’s not a problem. If you’ve ever taken a OTC medicine called ‘stool softener’ - guess what- it’s basically soapy water. It does exactly what the name suggests. If you take it regularly you will lose weight. Fast. This is the ‘off-label’ use. But it’s fairly harmless otherwise.

As with all chemicals, the danger of soap is dose dependent.

Look up the difference between detergent and soap. Most people don’t use “soap” to wash dishes. Dawn, Joy etc are detergents. Doctor Bronners is soap. Soap will make you sick.

I’ve been using wash/soap products to clean fruits and vegetables for years. I really don’t understand how this is suddenly a new and weird thing to do.

Exactly. Maybe this will finally push the whole RealID thing over the cliff into the abyss where it belongs.

I use a stir crazy popcorn popper and use the three kernal test method.  I didn’t initially, but I started having a lot of unpopped kernals.  I thought the stir crazy was dying but found this method online and don’t have that issue anymore.  Maybe since it’s so old it doesn’t get as hot as quickly so needs to heat up…

What is the one-person version of this? Put another way, what is the gender-neutral alternative to “sir or madam”?

“Chidi’s the only human character who it seems like was never given major flaws, enough to understand why he was in the bad place with dirtbag, dirtbag, and social climber.”
