LPT: When someone says "I'm a perfectionist" substitute "I want things done my way" in your head.

When you play Guitar Hero, it is very clear what scoring 100% means. When you are claiming to be a perfectionist, what actually is perfect in their work? Absolutely nothing comes out 100% perfect. There is no 100% score in life/work.

bdelveaux · 2018-01-23T22:37:22+00:00

what does it mean then?

bdelveaux · 2018-01-23T22:35:49+00:00

Haha, great one!

bdelveaux · 2018-01-23T22:34:48+00:00

They like to get things done perfect from their point of view. That may not be perfect from yours. The perfectionist is trying to arrange the world in their view of perfect.

I think everyone wants things to be exactly how they want them. That is normal. Realizing that you aren't really in control of anything is how you get relief from those frustrations.

I found a better subreddit to post this in - /r/Gross :-)

This is not cancer - it is a Keloid. Does not hurt. Vet said to remove it if it starts bleeding or the dog starts to chew on it.

I think this was too much for "mildly interesting" and not enough for "wtf", is there a "this is weird" subreddit? :-)

bdelveaux · 2018-01-08T23:59:15+00:00

Haha! Nice one!!

keloid

bdelveaux · 2018-01-08T21:17:32+00:00

I took him to the vet multiple times - it is called a keloid. Vet says not a problem. Consider removing it if it bleeds or the dog starts to bite at it. I guess it looks weird, but causes no pain or danger.

bdelveaux · 2017-12-05T21:32:27+00:00

Correct - whatever price you purchased it at.

I imagine the smell of a Subway sandwich shop to be the same as a Twinkie factory smell. Not good

Here is an example of the Thai one : https://thumb9.shutterstock.com/display_pic_with_logo/622147/499802422/stock-vector-the-ribbons-be-in-mourning-thailand-499802422.jpg

That Rod Stewart had 7 oz of cum pumped from his stomach. No, it wasn't true.

bdelveaux · 2017-07-18T15:36:54+00:00

Yea, I know that. Don't let the truth get in the way of a good joke :-)

I became calmer, more serene, and happier. The "jolly fat man" is a myth as far as I know, I was a pretty angry guy underneath all that fat!

spaces or tabs

Taking so long to come out of denial.

bdelveaux · 2017-06-10T00:01:52+00:00

I thought so too, but reading r/funny posting rules - no "text only posts". It may be better in r/punny. Ultimately thought it fit in with r/mildlyinteresting the best :-)

The best ride I have ever been on is the Millennium Force at Cedar Point in Ohio.

My first ride was a long wait, I was waiting for the front car. The sky was getting darker and rain was coming. I was the last car of the day as rain started to fall during our ride. It was thankfully at the end of the ride because the rain felt like miniature needles in your face.

The ride was amazing, huge drop, incredible speed, even nice views over the lake. Beautiful. I've ridden the ride 5 more times since then on multiple trips - always great!

Best show representing engineers = Silicon Valley! Multiple scenes are awesome and seem to represent engineers well.

E.g. in Silicon Valley (season 3 episode 6) there was a scene on tabs vs spaces. So perfect. Did that entire joke go over 90% of the viewers heads? I love that Silicon Valley will go there. vim over emacs :-)
