At least it was a sock and not a coconut.

I wouldn’t even mind ads if they weren’t so obtrusive. The ones that take up 70% of your screen between one liners are the worst.

Far as I know, they still make sewing machines; they just don’t sell them in the States.

Lamborghini started out making tractors.

My parents had a Mitsubishi television about 15 years ago.

Coleco started life as the Connecticut Leather Company.

And it’ll never fail to amuse me how Michelin tells you where to find the best restaurants on the planet.

Hell yeah! I’ve had mine since last summer. I had a 4 speed auto in high school and college, and I always told myself that if I could do it again, I’d get it with a stick so that’s what I managed.

What gen Miata? I’ve been wanting to drive an NB for a long time, but I can only realistically afford to have one 20+ year old car at a time lol

I love my Prelude. I paid $2,700 for it. I could sink another $10k into it and I’d have a perfectly good Prelude worth $6,000.

One of these days when I can stand to be out 10 grand, I’ll fix it up. For now, I’m just enjoying it as it is. It looks like butt, but it runs good.

I’ve seen too many videos of people launching Wiimotes because they weren’t wearing the strap. The Wii was around right as CRT was on its way out so I wonder how many LCD and plasma panels died this way.

Just a carryover. You reference communities here with an exclamation point. For instance:

!atheistmemes or [email protected]

Gotta swing 'er wide left then hard right for a turn on those tight city blocks.

What’s a good wee without a little target practice?

I’ve done this with my dinner table several times.

Lmao I was the bassist in our jam sessions, but I also play trumpet so that did spice things up a bit.

In fairness, I had a college buddy who learned to play real drums by playing a lot of Rock Band. He was no Joey Jordison, but he wasn’t half bad.

It must be the VPN. Just about every site I visit is worse now. Several times I’ve visited a sites and just been outright denied entry if I don’t turn my VPN off. And I Alt + Left the fuck out of them.

I saw them in concert in Seattle a few weeks ago!

The Linda Lindas opened and they rocked. I wasn’t even aware of Rancid and their impact on the punk rock scene so now I’m digging through their discography. Then the Smashing Pumpkins played. They played Tarantula but not Geek USA or Mayonaise for some reason. But they did play a lot of the hits. Tonight, Tonight, 1979, Disarm, Jellybelly, Zero, Bullet, Today, etc. Lots of songs that got me through trying times. Great show. Then Green Day came out and played the entirety of Dookie and American Idiot. I’ve listened through both more times than I care to count. In total, we were at T-Mobile Park for like six hours. It was fucking awesome.

Except for the fact that they wheeled Billie out on a California king and he snored the whole time.

Am I the only one who has to do like 12 of these in a row before my humanity is recognized? Beyond mildly inconvenient, it’s downright annoying now.

Edit: I use Mullvad + Firefox + Betterfox + uBO. I don’t think my setup is that sophisticated lmao

Look, all I want is for my shit to work and work every time. I drive a car from the 90s. I go out of my way to buy handheld electronics that take standard cell batteries. I’m writing this while shitting in a toilet made in 1972. I don’t mind things being a little out of date as long as they just work.

Anyway, guess my distro.

You’re either the kind of person who reads their emails in real time and freaks if that little blue number ever reads “2” or you’re the kind of person who selects their entire inbox and marks it as read twice a decade.

My wife is the former. I am the latter. I get too much junk. I go through my inbox a few times a day, read what looks important, and ignore the rest. I have 2,174 unread emails in my inbox and a folder called “auto junk” with 5,116 in it.

My wife has already put up our Halloween/Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Year’s/Valentine’s Day/Easter tree.

It doesn’t, though? I’ve sent cash through the washer plenty of times. How else am I supposed to launder my money?

(Also, I thought it was pretty clear my original comment was a joke, but whatever dude lol)

Must be in Canadian dollars. Everyone knows their money is fake.
