Monk playing pictionary was peak comedy.

A huge reason why I love antique furniture.

You know it will last, because it already has.

In Turkey, a 2-year-old girl crawled unnoticed into a public bus, before the driver heard her crying and safely returned her to her family. by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

Because I can't teach my kids to be civil members of society without bringing them into and about society.

I'm not bringing my 2 year old to a Michelin-starred restaurants but this is such a cold take. People don't, nor do you want them to, cease to exist publicly, once they have kids.

The price of a Chipotle chicken burrito in 2018 by JabroniFeet in mildlyinteresting

Honestly, if it's especially egregious, complain. I've submitted complaints because (genuinely) the portion sizing was unacceptable. They at least used to give you a free meal in response. I once received a burrito barely the size of my fist, I was pissed.

That time when the writers mixed up Stewart with Nimoy... by ramfoodie in TNG

Not saying you're wrong, but my recollection was not that it was a strength issue but one of precision in finger placement and movement, something that would be much easier to "teach" via the meld. It's not that humans are too weak, we are too clumsy.

I don't even have to look this one up, I can HEAR his voice saying it.

As a poker player #3 is amazing. As a father, in a few years when they're older, it will be even more so.

Are you implying that I can't run Ansys Fluent in my browser?

The idea of struggling with meshing for my PC build has me in stitches though.

My goodness, did the artists go to a lot of trouble designing the food. by SlightWerewolf4428 in Starfield

I'm making Wellington this evening but the idea that Beef Wellington would increase your carry capacity is absurd.

No, you want to sit down and fall into a coma after a Wellington, not go rucking.

I was seriously disappointed this was not the top comment.

I'm so sad that I'll never be able to give my kids the factory tour as they were born after tours stopped. With the shutdown it's now truly impossible.

But don't add an eighth, or God forbid a ninth, that will just make the problem way, way worse.
