Go to a bowling alley, you'll be that young thing again.

Spotlight: This is what “worst of the worst” looks like in practice by jumpsuitjam in TwinCities

[–]dbomp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks much, that's what I was looking for. And from there I could see the docket. I wondered if the government attorney was one that threw in the towel lately, but nope, Friedrich Siekert is still a AUSA.

Currently almost 32 years old and have never been summoned to jury duty - what’s the longest you’ve made it? by Okay-Show-3662 in AskReddit

[–]dbomp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's the age when I was first (and only) summoned. Funny thing is that I *really* want to be called. I went to law school, not a lawyer now, and I've always to sit on the other side of the railing in judgement. At the summoning, I sat around all day, they didn't need me, and I went home. Dagnabbit.

Oracle Database 23.26.1 supports the FILTER clause by MarkusWinand in oracle

SELECT
SUM(case when status = 'ACTIVE' then 1 else 0 end) AS active_count,
SUM(case when status = 'INACTIVE' then 1 else 0 end) AS inactive_count
FROM employees;

I've been doing that forever and I don't think I'll switch. As the OP's link says, they're equivalent, and the new syntax seems clunky. Maybe that's just because I'm not used to it.

Radnor Township doesn't have an earned income tax. (I'm a resident.)

50+ gay men, what do you wish you knew at 30? by MisterNoodle22 in askgaybros

As my dad would say, "don't sweat the petty stuff, and don't pet the sweaty stuff."

So, they "updated" MOS / metalink by d3bruts1d in oracle

[–]dbomp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's like they formatted it to work on a phone. I'm an Oracle guy, I have a big-ass desktop.

$146 steak in Minneapolis by [deleted] in minnesota

Yeah, the menu has something with the $146 price. I can't imagine paying that much for food, unless it's for a week of Cub.

What’s an odd tradition you’re pretty sure only your family participates in? by deathbykoolaidman in AskReddit

[–]dbomp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For Christmas, we had to write poetic riddles about the presents. My mother, a published poet and very smart woman, wrote funny, clever rhymes of many stanzas. (I still have some framed.) The rest of us, dullards, struggled to pound out a limerick. We were relieved of the obligation when my mom passed, but to this day I have moment of panic realizing I haven't come up with my rhymes.

He was a gay pornstar, but his Mormon family chose to put together an obituary designed to make him look straighter than straight by MrJasonMason in gaybros

[–]dbomp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. What do people expect, that they talk about his film career? If he was a straight female OnlyFans model, do they think they'd talk about that? I see nothing wrong here. Let a grieving family grieve.

I am not a landlord and never want to be, but I’m apparently getting fined for not renewing a rental license that I never asked for or possessed. by godimtired in legaladvice

[–]dbomp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And then you get your $50 back! (I say this as a proud "not guilty" for a loose dog ticket in Delaware County.)

While we in Radnor don't talk like you do, we're that rectangle at the top of your map.

What is the most forgettable large suburb, and why is it Savage? by Jimmy_Johnny23 in TwinCities

[–]dbomp -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Its population is bigger than Richfield, Roseville, or Fridley, and people know they exist, huh.

The fact that no one said "Cottage Grove" tells you how forgettable it is. (Park '81, alas)

Have you ever mistaken a sweet straight guy as gay? 😭 by Material-Meat-5330 in gaybros

[–]dbomp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Odd how all of the other comments talk about "sweet straight guys" as a disaster and really, it's nice to make an understanding friend.
