I’m pretty sure this is the intended use case for them, though.

Thanks for following up!

For anyone reading this thread in the future, the original comment said “culture” rather than “vulture.” I wasn’t being random or nonsensical. Not in this case, anyway.

I don’t disagree that it’s clever and I like the message of the quote, but mostly I think that when I was younger I thought it was deeper than I do now.

I’ve never been a one man show, but I definitely miss the days of freedom and relative lack of consequence. While most of my jobs over the last decade or so have been fairly engaging, I think my current job is the first one that really pushes me on a regular basis.

I’m grateful for the opportunity to learn, but also it can be hard to relax.

Him getting distracted before completing the task is pretty hilarious.

Sounds like an improvement to me.

I would like you to know that your comment greatly amused me. Thank you for making it.

When I was young, I read a quote: “war doesn’t determine who’s right. It determines who’s left.”

At the time, I thought it quite clever and deep.

Yesterday, my dog woke me up at 6am absolutely DESPERATE to go outside. When I let him out, he just laid down in the grass. It was sunny and what most people would consider beautiful out.

I made him come back in so I could go back to bed and he promptly pooped in the living room.

This is also the attitude taken by Ross Scott.

Does this typo make trying the meat cultural appropriation?

The dollar store near me recently did the same. Almost.

The self checkout machine is still physically there. Presumably all the internals are as well. It’s just turned off and now, as you said, it takes three times longer to buy things.

She looks like a good dog. Thank you for sharing.

Ah, gotcha. I have heard of a pug beagle. Thanks for the clarification!

It’s worthwhile in my eyes. Most people to whom I mention it say “I couldn’t work a ten hour day,” which is a valid perspective, but also I’d rather lose two hours a day over one day a week.

I would prefer 4x8 though.

I was going to mention Reign of Fire until I saw your parenthetical insert.

Guess I’ll go back to my physics-based MMO.

Sounds to me like you lost your mind about this.

TV tropes? There goes my day.

I work a four day workweek, but I also work 25% longer every workday than most people do.

I’m grateful for my extra day off, but I’m also tired every workday. And a lot of non workdays.

Good on you for giving that dog twelve years with you and for being with him for his last breath.
