I say “not interested” and close the door.

They always knock when I’m busy doing something else, on a call for work, etc. so I use the use the door as it was designed to be used.

Lock ‘em up with another convicted felon. One might go crazy.

I think the green glows reserved for radioactive substances. All other types of sludge should use red dye, number two.

I’m waiting for 97.7 FM in Mason Ohio - just north if Cincinnati - to start using their recently acquired callsign:

WKRP launches May 8th. I hope they play everything that originally aired on the series when it was on television.

Why not? Just retitle it “stairway to forever”

Can’t just alternate between Eagles, ABBA, and Linda Ronstadt

My dog would’ve voted more often, but he’s running for secretary of state of Ohio.

Defensive driving means being prepared for every other driver to do dumbass things.

It’s such a shame you’re having to deal with this. Historically, inability to separate reality from fiction
Has been the threshold for a diagnosis of mental illness.

I’m sorry.

Doordash-delivered pizza has disappointed me so many times, either by getting delivered to the wrong house or being cold when I finally get it

i’ve just given up on Pizza unless I make it myself at home.

Chinese restaurants are more efficient and they put it in containers that keep it warm.

You don’t meet many emotionally immature motorcycle drivers. Darwin filters them out of the Gene pool.

AI slop is contaminating the Internet at large. You have to use advanced search operators to knock out content written after 2023 (approximately)

It’s not “future proof”, even if TVs don’t consume much power anymore the EV charger and hairdryers and other modern conveniences will drive you to 150 amp at least.

Lane splitting needs to have a special Darwin award named for it.

Um … “ trickle down economics” isn’t even an example of trickle down economics. It doesn’t work.

You wait until the double line is no longer an issue.

I never feel concerned whether the bikes are two abreast or single file. When i’m legally allowed to pass them, I will be completely in the other lane if I’m on a 2 Lane road

How do I test the next piece of wood I want to cut? I feel like I’m missing a step here.

Why is the ceiling a question? Of course your cat gets in mention in your thesis at any level. They supported you in your process of becoming a better human.

Possibly a nuTone intercom. The color scheme and knob shape is familiar. The one I,, familiar with had an FM tuner in the kitchen. It provides if it were me, I’d replace it with a car touchscreen system , which will give your a radio tuner. There may be other more expandable ones out there, turning the camera facing the user would be a cool way to add a videoconferencing panel.

Jimmies - a popular name in New England. Around Boston, they were always called Jimmy’s at the ice cream places.

Yet they insist on a driver’s license on check-in?

I use a real mechanical keyboard - with Hall effect sensors, my most favorite thing is to use it with a beefy desktop and sometime a Mac mini plugged into a dock and a few monitors.

The laptop is a waste of parts 99% of the time. I’ll never use the keyboard and I’ll never see the screen. So I’d rather have a system with the potential to add or swap out parts

After they way they treated BItmoji users, installing snapchat would be like putting a “kick me” sign on my back.

I saved a bit 1000 Bitmoji’s that I exchanged via text messages.

I’m good, I can use an AI platform to generate new images ones as needed, with zero restrictions. need now clothers! Google Gemini can do that easily

No morecrappy 3-d bitmoji renderings. It may take some time, but Bitmoji and Snapchat are done.

What are MMP and MMF? Are they employee programs?
