I wish they would ban me. I haven’t logged in in over 15 years and even block several of their servers, and yet I still get mails that someone in there commented on something.

I knew booze was the only way to make using a Mac bearable.

Just imagine what would happen if all lice were privatised.

I always go into stores to throw stuff from the racks onto the floor, to make sure the people whose job it is to clean that up stay employed.

I never buy anything of course, I don’t want stuff that’s been on the floor!

I was very excited when they announced GW2. Sadly it is a very different game from the first one, and while I can still enjoy the story, it is not really a game for me.

But I would argue that the rest of the world also uses primarily English online. And just by virtue of being the rest of the world, outnumbers the Americans.

In other words, of all Internet users that use English, the vast majority is likely not American.

Of course I don’t have data to back this up, except anecdotally.

I’m sorry but this is nonsense. I’m in a lot of online communities where everyone uses English, despite it being nearly nobody’s first language. It just happens to be the only language that everyone there knows. Language is no indication of nationality, especially online.

And to be honest, in those places the assumption is usually that everyone is European, which I can imagine is just as annoying for the stray American.

People like your art director are the reason people like my product manager want us to write code to verify QR codes, so that our clients can tell their clients that they forgot the quiet zone and their client’s clients may have trouble reading the code.

Damn that’s a lot of levels of clients.

Why doesn’t anyone ever think COVID was sent by God to give us a reprieve and a chance to get our act together, which we’re now squandering?

With a million dollars you can buy mushrooms, making picking them feel pointless.

Usually you have to lift them straight up, often with another clip to release. You can’t just pull them off in passing - you’d pull down the bike, perhaps fall too, and have nothing to show for it.
