If I’m at home and can do it myself, sure. But when I had a broken ankle, the grocery delivery people would take one look at me and offer to bring the groceries to the kitchen and the kitty litter to the bathroom even though they were only required to hand it to me at the door. And I *really* appreciated it.

Something in the same general style as Blazing Saddles.

It’s free with Comcast. Now, whether anyone watches it is another question.

Unless that modem costs well over $168 and you absolutely must replace it every year, $14/month is a ripoff. More likely it costs somewhat below that and you only need to replace it every 3-4 years.

Or just wait until everyone catches up to the new Mac icon guidelines and they’re all the same size and shape as iOS icons. And say goodbye to using shape recognition to tell them apart.

The gummy worm is probably what tipped it over from just “chocolate pie with cookie crumb crust” to “dirt pie”, and gummy worms originated in 1981 so we have an upper limit for the creation date.

The bed is at its maximum comfy state when I get out of it, since I’ve just spent a whole night twisting the bedcoverings into just the right place. “Making” it undoes all that work.

I read it as a different spin: “She’d totally support me, but I asked her not to, that’s the real reason why you don’t hear anything from her.”

Likewise. The only preconceived notions I had were from many years of D&D, and the first episode felt like a classic “bring the band of adventurers together” session. Then the second episode started with a villain so cliched he only lacked a mustache to twirl, and I was done.

When I was picking up my car in Glasgow, I heard one half of a conversation with American tourists who had ordered a large automatic, cancelled it, changed their minds, and expected to still be able to pick it up. The counter guy looped through many variations of “no, there are none in all of Glasgow, someone would…

They’ll use it in private too. The sort of person who sets up a livestream of their whole life is not the sort of person to ask for permission. That was really popular in China a few years back (for all I know, still is) and my college choir group discovered it when a Chinese grad student/new soprano was filming us…

There’s your problem - you put it on a high shelf, instead of the bottom to stabilize it. Especially true if you have one of those extra-tall narrow bookshelves.

I’d really like it to stop making a “Selfies” folder out of pictures taken with the front camera. I do not do “Selfies”.

Alice was the first 3D movie I’d seen, and very nearly the last.

The HP-01 watch could do some interesting date and time related math; I spent a lot of time working it all out for an emulator app for the Apple Watch.

“the average age of the Nerf audience”

I don’t care who they get, just so long as they don’t go back to Randy Newman.

This website loves to pop old articles to the top of the list - that’s how I found it just now.

How is the answer to “I can’t eat X” anything other than “Oh, sorry, I wish I’d known or I’d have made more alternatives - these dishes should be OK”?

Well, it’s not *this* one, and it’s not *that* one, so it must be this last one.
