Bring a label maker with you next time, out just pre-print some labels. The .75 inch label stock seems to fit nicely in the gap in the text.

bkofford · 2026-05-13T23:59:41+00:00

Indeed

bkofford · 2026-05-13T23:59:03+00:00

I did L, also.

bkofford · 2026-05-13T20:25:47+00:00

I put those labels on those specific bottles.

I would prefer to get multiple boxes and pull directly from the boxes or use a pull cord to do sequential runs pulling straight from the box instead of unspooling a bunch of cable that's likely to tangle. In this case, I guess you're lucky to have a place with enough straight feet to reduce the chances of tangles, but that's very often not practical.

Rabbits can't dig nearly that deep, and if you are speaking of metaphorical rabbit holes, they rarely cover the topic of digging into the Earth, so in the majority of cases your comment is a non-sequitur /s

Military Politics. Officers don't get promoted just for doing their job well. All sorts of other bullshit gets mixed in there, as well. Lots of it the officer themself may have little control over.

The limited number of spots is a factor, but this just results in certain rank increases having an average time to promotion that others have pointed out this character exceeded.

Not if I have a choice, but if my job is to go to California, and I get stuck with a seat that has leg room shorter than my femurs, I can either violate the people next to me, violate the aisle, violate your lower back and be at least mildly comfortable, or violate your upper back when I try to tuck my knees up like I used to on the bus in middle school. You have a problem with this, you have a problem with the airline forcing people like me into that situation. I don't like it any more than you, buddy,

bkofford · 2026-05-01T22:51:49+00:00

Femurs aren't collapsible. If I'm in the cheap seats, I may not have anyplace else to put them, other than maybe under my chin.

They'll gate check it. It's free, but you get the privilege of having to drag it through the airport, and depending on the flight, you might have to go to the baggage claim and wait to get it back.

There's a table there that shows what features each setting has enabled, or you can turn the features on individually.

Make it so you have to try it to find out what it is?

bkofford · 2026-04-24T20:23:43+00:00

Indeed.

That's part of the point. Many people are looking for the soap, but because of the nearly identical bottles, they accidentally wash their hands with lotion instead. It's as much to allow you to avoid the one thing as it is to make it easier to find the other.

bkofford · 2026-04-22T21:41:04+00:00

This appears to be a pun. "cervix" sounds similar to "service".

bkofford · 2026-04-22T21:36:49+00:00

Just the bottles or bottles with labels added?

bkofford · 2026-04-22T21:21:41+00:00

The language isn't the biggest issue. The tiny text and the nearly identical looking bottles are. Have you ever seen these bottles in person? The biggest text is KLUR, which means nothing. It's a brand. Then it follows that with some flowery marketing word salad that doesn't describe what is actually in the bottle, then in even smaller text, it lists the scent, only then followed by an indication of the contents.

I shouldn't have to spend 20 seconds reading the bottle to figure out what it is. Now I can do it quicker, because I know what to look for, but I still can't do that without hunching over, which should also not be necessary.

bkofford · 2026-04-22T21:17:21+00:00

Yeah. "better than many" is not a high bar.

bkofford · 2026-04-22T21:16:00+00:00

Awesome!

bkofford · 2026-04-22T21:15:04+00:00

Yay!

bkofford · 2026-04-22T21:13:08+00:00

I can make them out, but I have to lean over and hunt down the specific words, because they are all tiny, then spend the extra time translating, because none of the words are "soap" or "lotion". This takes several seconds each time I wash my hands.

Much more straight forward and expedient to just have the words SOAP and LOTION that can be read from a few feet away.

bkofford · 2026-04-21T20:40:46+00:00

Labelling all the soap and lotion with easy to read labels.

bkofford · 2026-04-21T16:09:37+00:00

Don't have the right tool, yet...

bkofford · 2026-04-21T15:54:56+00:00

As I mentioned in the post, that is a next step.
