‘Crane’ was word #1,730. Considering today is #531, and now that some words are getting moved up, that one day should be in April 2026.

I agree with everything you said, but I just want to emphasize “[toilets] are super simple to fix.” This is so true. I’m not a plumber by any measure but I’ve successfully repaired all of our toilet woes. I even replaced an entire toilet. You can do it people! (Just remember to shut off the water at the wall first.)

I think switches and outlets are easier than termostats. The wiring on outlets are simple - hot, neutral, ground - and you’re done. Smart switches introduce another hot wire and sometime you’ll run across a box that doesn’t have a neutral. Then you get to a thermostat and it’s almost kind’a standardized. Do you have a…

In the last quarter, Amazon pulled a profit of $137.4 billion, but evidently needs mOaR monies!

Nope.  Grab the shotgun.

Technically not fast food, but I miss the Red Robin A1 Peppercorn Burger. It disappeared at the beginning of the pandemic due to supply issues (or so I heard) and never returned.

Regardless of the origin, that type of headline means I won’t be sharing the post with my parents, kids, nor most of my co-workers. If the point of the headline was to minimize sharing, it worked.

One lesson I learned the hard way - before you go down into the crawl space, lock your pets in another room.

If you’re in the middle of a game, you’ll lose your progress; if you’re writing a note in an app that doesn’t auto-save, your work will be lost. All because you innocently decided to change your wallpaper.

I don’t know why Lifehacker continues to perpetuate the myth that Brussels Sprouts are edible.  Shame on you Claire!

Not sure where you live. In the US, 57.5% of the populated is vaccinated. Not sure why you would use “eligible for vaccination” instead of the true vaccination rate.

For metered paywalls, they record your number of visits in a cookie. The easy answer (well, for me) is to delete the cookie.

Part of what makes Reddit so damn Reddit is the site’s commitment to allowing the expression of both sides of an issue. On the pro-vaccine side, there’s the world’s doctors and epidemiologists urging you to take a tested, safe, free, and effective vaccine to prevent the spread of a deadly disease. On the anti-vaccine…

^^^ This! ^^^

Or... hear me out... you could stop being a selfish bastard and get the damn vaccination. If your doctor said you can’t get it, I feel for you. If your Facebook support group said you shouldn’t get it, screw you - stop being a selfish bastard and get the damn shot. If you favorite politician advised you to ignore…

BMX Racing was added in 2008.  Freestyle BMX is new.

We experimented with not watering our lawn. The biggest problem is once the grass died, the weeds moved in. A healthy lawn is fairly good at keeping the weeds out. Now we water just enough to keep the grass strong enough to defend against the weeds.

Karate is not really similar to Judo and makes for a poor comparison. Tae Kwon Do would be a better comparison, or even boxing is closer to Karate than Judo.

There are 6 new sports in the Olympics this year, not 4.  You missed 3x3 basketball and freestyle BMX.
