That connector is for š—¶š—»š—½š˜‚š˜, not output. It makes no sense, because I canā€™t imagine someone wanting to feed audio š—¶š—»š˜š—¼ such a crappy speaker.

ā€œwithout meltingā€ā€”I didnā€™t know there were any thermosetting cheeses. I guess I wonā€™t be 3D printing with this one!

dank (adjective): disagreeably damp, musty, and typically cold

You can get a lot of ā€œexperiencesā€ out of a large TV, surround sound, and a good Blu-ray collection.

To clarify: mon-goes, not mong-goes or some other variation.

Maybe thereā€™s something weird about my browser (an old version of Chrome on an old Mac), but that GIF appears as flashing green & purple bars that donā€™t seem intended to represent ā€œnon-traditional designā€ unless the designer was on psychedelics. Thatā€™s why I thought you were playing games with us. If it š˜øš˜¢š˜“ā€¦

Having to unlock your iPhone screen (or, leave autolock off) to use the remote is a definite minus. Sometimes, dedicated devices are just the way to go.

Actually, that was just a way of saying that I didnā€™t understand what the hell it is while trying to hide my ignorance. It does have some deep significance, right? Right?

An irritating animated GIF as clickbaitā€”how low weā€™ve sunk. Or am I missing some deep significance?

A- since youā€™re mistaken about the position of the period being an error (see below).

Regarding the period inside the quote, thatā€™s a stylistic difference, not an error. Americans put it inside, Brits (like myself) put it outside. I donā€™t generally champion language purity, but the subjective/objective case error and the misplaced possessive apostrophe are too egregious to accept.

Canā€™t you save posts like this one until at least the late afternoon?! Now my stomach is going to be growling all day, and Iā€™ll probably be spitting on my colleagues from excessive mouth watering.

Garlic salt is an abomination, along with its constituent garlic powder.

If youā€™re talking about frozen, as opposed to delivered hot, pizzas, then people who have only toaster ovens rather than full-size ones. Also, if you shop at Costco, their Kirkland four-packs of small pizzas are cheaper (by weight) than the large single ones.

It seems that most people these days canā€™t even use apostrophes (no, itā€™s not ā€œapostropheā€™sā€) correctly, so I donā€™t hold out much hope for math skills. And donā€™t get me started on abominations like ā€œThe pizza looked good to John and I. Itā€™s crust was nice and thickā€. (Can you spot the two common errors?)

I would definitely like to have ā€œShake the Futureā€ on my teamā€”this guyā€™s great!

Bitter is bad?

Our strategy was to not have kids.
