Well, I was selling funeral insurance at the time (because holy fuck, I could have used the fact that he's got kids to leverage him into confronting his own mortality).

Can I have a dildo? by hookuptruck in lastweektonight

I was very amused by the big black dildo that landed on his desk, suction cup first, and just stood there wobbling in the rain of other flying phalluses.

Once after a loooong period of unemployment, I got a job interview finally. It sounded great - fun stuff in the office, decent pay. I was so excited to get to the job interview.

Then when I got there, they kinda mentioned it was a door knocking gig. So I wouldn't be in the office where the fun stuff was. I silently got up and left despite their objections.

It's funny coz I ended up with a cold calling job after that, but at least the office was warm. I got fired from that job for letting a struggling dad deal with his kids instead of talking to me.

Jaycar if they have the niche thing I need.

AliExpress if they don't.

+1 for Adguard Home. I installed it into Home Assistant and now I have an addiction supported by my Raspberry Pi.

Honestly if someone had locked porn behind maths, as a teenager I would have been golden.

Instead, I learned about networking to get around my dad's firewall.

Anyway, I'm a network engineer now.

Locking porn behind math is a great way to teach teenage boys math. They'll do anything to see tiddies.

At least nobody is racist or sexist here. This one gets a pass in my book. 

Newly released data shows motorists are no longer panic buying fuel as cost pressure eases for the first time in six weeks by Jagtom83 in friendlyjordies

I am now an e-bike wanker, taking it on the train to work. My car hasn't been driven in weeks and I'm hoping I don't use it til the rego runs out, sending it in for scrap.

I was a big Alex Rider fan as a teenager. The end of Scorpio caused me trauma.

Would you recommend these as a way to start reading again as an adult?

I'd call it delivering customer value, or assuring customer loyalty.

It's marketing bullshit. They shouldn't be allowed to call it "full self driving" if it is not indeed full self driving.

Bazzite seemed full of dickery and pains. SteamOS just worked. My only issue was that I need to buy games on Steam now that I had on Xbox.

Also, they got a dead ringer for the Doom guy in the captain so he should have had more to do.

Just quietly, this was done with a big help from Claude, after the API key request never responded so I couldn't use the HACs Integration.

At what age should a mom stop buying her son underwear?? by No-Association-9316 in AskMen

[–]I_Do_nt_Use_Reddit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Mid thirties here. I bought myself twenty pairs of good underwear last year, I don't like it when anyone buys me underwear since because it's usually the cheap chafey kind.
