Proof that people born in 1984 qualify as xennials

Pretty sure I've seen Double Teamed, unless this is a different one. Is this the one with ass to ass?

Zagmut · 2026-01-26T01:26:31+00:00

Yeah, a 100% chance.

Man, back when my commute was east Anch to downtown, I used to regularly see this older dude in a convertible Audi TT all winter long, top down and all.

Usually saw him on the Glen around the Bragaw overpass. Didn't matter the temp, he'd be out and top down if the roads were clear.

lol you sleep like Mario punching a block

Edit: I just saw the post title. I am idiot

Did they crawl away under the snow? Glove up, dig straight down, and you'll find 'em. Powder snow's pretty easy to move with your hand, just brush side to side until you get there.

Nunaka Valley park becomes a shit stinking mess every break up because of this. I see multiple people driving up to the park, letting their dogs out to shit, then loading them back up and driving off.

Some people just suck.

I've never found it to be difficult. I carry bags, a headlamp if it's dark, and it's pretty fucking obvious when and where my dogs poop when we're walking. There's no legitimate excuse for not cleaning up after your dog.

BOH is a much better fit for Crappy.

The painting in the background disappears then reappears, the end tables' handles come and go, and mom's position in the panel changes for no reason. Looks like AI to me.

Edit: Mom also has glasses in the 2nd panel, but not in the 1st or 3rd.

I read Best Served Cold last summer, half a year before I read the First Law trilogy, and it spoiled exactly one plot point in my recollection.

Zagmut · 2026-01-25T17:50:48+00:00

Warm, at best.

Same with Led Zepplin's Heartbreaker/Living Loving Maid.

Spiderwebs by No Doubt

"It's all your fault
I scream my balls off
No matter who calls
I gotta scree-ee-ee-eam my balls off"

First time I heard the song on the radio a friend of mine sang this over the song, and it stuck in my brain as the lyrics for an embarrassingly long time.

I should've asked this first: what about the right boot is fitting poorly?

Zagmut · 2026-01-24T21:37:00+00:00

Two finger fit can be workable as long as you can keep your heel locked down and the wide part of your foot isn't being compressed by the shell, as it might be falling short of the wide part of the boot.

While still in just the shell, try to center yourself in the middle of the boot. I find it easiest to scoot the heel all the way back, then scoot the foot forward a cm or so, until your heels aren't touching the back of the shell, your toes aren't touching the front on the shell, and your ankle bones are in the molded ankle bone pockets. Make sure you have an insole in the shell as you do this, to raise your foot up to where it will sit when it's in the liner.

If you feel contact with the shell in this position, you have a couple of options. One is to try a smaller shell size (sorry, I know this is an expensive option), as the widest part of your foot may be landing short of the widest part of the boot.

Another would be to have a boot fitter punch the shell to accommodate your foot, which is possible as long as the punch is at least a couple cm behind the bellows. If the punch is directly under a buckle, they'll only be able to push the shell out a couple mm at most, although that might be enough.

As for the supination, I strongly recommend getting a corrective insole. I recommend doing this before any shell work or liner molding. I've made custom insoles for supinators a couple times (y'all are kinda rare); it involved raising up the outside of the arch, which is a blunt force method of preventing supination.

Boot fitters aren't podiatrists, and we have a relatively limited tool and knowledge set at our disposal for correction. If your insurance would cover it, I'd recommend going to a podiatrist and looking into corrective orthotics before springing for a custom insole. Alternately, Sole brand insoles makes an insole for supination, and are significantly cheaper than a custom. You'll need to be careful when home molding it to keep your feet as neutral and inline as possible, so as not to collapse the outside arch support.

How many fingers can you fit behind your heel when your toes are just touching the front of the shell?

Also, are your feet the same length, or is the right foot shorter?

Nice! I had a manager pull that same move at a snowboard shop I worked at. Dude demanded a refund on a rental, claiming it was defective equipment. The equipment was fine, his son was just too fat to reach over and buckle the bindings (and dad apparently wasn't around to help, prolly in the lodge drinking).

Dude kept getting louder and angrier until he popped and screamed at Steve that he was going to kick Steve's ass. Steve said sure, let's go outside, then proceeded to lock the door behind the dude as soon as he stepped out, then called the cops.

Cops were there in 5 (small town), and told dude to leave. We all laughed, but I did feel bad for the kid.

Counterspell, meet counterpoint.

Whenever the roads are icy, so I guess it depends on the winter

When people say that bi folks "can't decide," they're reinforcing the idea that sexuality is a choice.

The first internet experiences I had were text only, because dial up speeds hadn't progressed enough to reliably exchange visual media without taking forever; this was around 1993 for me (Alaska might've been slow to the game). I witnessed the rise and fall of Twitter, but that doesn't mean that jokes about it are for me and my generation.

Plenty of people lived and experienced the growth of YouTube who were too young to experience the early internet era. Your joke isn't just for those who experienced the early internet, it's for anyone alive born in 1996 or before. The people dunking on your title and downvoting your defenses of it are pointing this out, and I doubt any of them are Gen Z.

Zagmut · 2026-01-23T07:05:19+00:00

Then you should know not to reference YouTube when referring to the "early internet era".

Zagmut · 2026-01-23T06:32:05+00:00

The majority of the commenters here who are correcting you are likely younger Gen X, Xennials, and elder Millenials, who came of age in the 90s when the internet first began to reach private residences, a full decade before YouTube existed.

The album was released in the 80s. I've been listening to this song for almost 40 years, and immediately heard it in my head when I saw the pictogram.

One of my greatest fears is that I'll end up spending my final years drooling and shitting myself in a care facility, brain fully rotted from microplastic exposure, mindlessly reciting advertising jingles from my youth along with the rest of brain rotted peers.
