  1. I try to walk about 3 miles every evening that I'm not traveling for work or otherwise occupied. It's further than Mrs. Doom, the Doomlet, or the dog care to walk, so I walk solo. There's a decent-sized tree along my route that has a weird little Kuato-type of limb outgrowth that doesn't look like it belongs where it is, almost like the tree got the idea to sprout a limb as far from all the other limbs as possible. Whenever happen to see it, I make the same joke to myself - that the tree has decided to open up a satellite branch. I find this joke very clever and amusing, and until now, it has bothered me that there's nobody else who can appreciate it. You're welcome.
  2. If hell exists, having to wrangle unmanageable garden hoses is probably one of the work stations.
  3. CVG is indeed a mind-boggling design.
  4. The one closest to me, and which I'm now beholden to, is often (not always) frustrating to deal with. All previous locations I've dealt with over the years were better. I've got to the point where I won't take them at their word about how quickly they'll get my shit done. I'm hoping that their acquisition of Tire Rack doesn't lead to a further enshittening.
  5. I agree that LAX sucks a thousand assholes. I fly American, so sometimes I get to take the shortcut around, and other times I don't. Such a boom or bust way to start off your travel. The bus-to-your-Uber situation is miserable.
  6. ^^^particularly when the bass kicks in
  7. Yeah, I agree with all that in principle, but fuck all connections at PHX, and most of them at CLT.
  8. He was a fun Twitter follow pre-COVID, but he had some really extreme and stupid opinions about it and his feed eventually grew too tiresome to continue tolerating.
  9. A retaliatory War Ensemble by Slayer at full blast usually gets the point across.
  10. You unkind bastard.
  11. She looks like a Kitchen Witch.
  12. If it's not under water, maybe see about at least putting it under some piss?
  13. Username adds legitimacy to the claim.
  14. Drive it home!!! Seriously though, I'm really stoked for you. Enjoy!
  15. Can't remember where I heard this, but I heard him described as "Adele for the forklift-certified."
  16. Same. So I guess this meme reminds me of OP:
  17. Pretty understated outfit for Kim Mulkey.
  18. Choco Taco and it's not close.
  19. I have the nagging sense that I picked him a few years ago. Seems like one of those unsurprising kinds of deaths.
  20. I expect that this was posted in jest, but this is my initial reaction to 10 seconds of looking at the demo link. I would prefer to keep the interface as as simple (and as consistent with the current layout) as possible. The only thing I would change about the current setup is to bring back rep comments. *Disclaimer - I really, truly, and perhaps even irrationally hate "change for the sake of change." Not saying that's what motivates @immamac here, but I'm a big fan of "if it isn't broken, don't fix it," especially if "fixing it" requires learning a new way to do an old and familiar task. To me, that's not improving the user experience, it's inconveniencing users for the sake of vanity and/or "validating" the importance to the organization of whoever has implemented the change.
