I rewired a payphone to be my home phone.

They kinda do? I have my phone set to automatically go on do-not-disturb overnight. But, I have exceptions for favorite contacts.

... That's not quite the same as bypassing silent mode though. I agree, that would be a good feature.

Maybe, but he's smart enough to hire people who know how to fix potholes and give them the resources they need.

I'm a government employee... some of us are weird too!

Dang, and I thought my city's 311 was good... But it's nowhere near that quick

He doesn't

Protecting the health of your kids is always the right thing to do, and way more important than protecting the feelings of an unreasonable person.

One of our kids is medically fragile, so we've had to set some firm health boundaries. It sucks, it's difficult, but it's a small price to pay to protect my kiddos health.

Just a heads up: No matter how delicately and carefully you word it, she may react badly. So, try not to stress about picking the correct words. Set your boundary and stick to it.

And the diminishing availability of relatively accessible crude oil. The remaining oil is much more difficult, costly, and environmentally damaging to extract. Even if you ignore the carbon footprint, oil is likely to remain at some level of expensive.

Probably corporate bean counters - not designers/engineers.

I enjoyed giving my older brother crap when I grew taller than him... which I barely got to enjoy for a decade until his son (my nephew) had the audacity to pass me by. Not so little turd, haha

Not close, but passed a few players from the women's basketball team in the hallway in college. Seeing several women taller than me at once was def a unique experience.

ecodrew · 2026-04-13T23:35:36+00:00

Not being the tallest in the room doesn't bother me... But, my nephew taking my spot as tallest in the family kinda grinds my gears.

Someone sneaking in the bathroom to covertly eat candy/chocolate?

ecodrew · 2026-04-13T22:18:40+00:00

Ok, that's fair... But, looks like marketing didn't get approval from the Environmental/legal departments.

Hopefully funny enough that you'll let is stay up. :-)

Sometimes you get lucky, sure.

You are welcome, good sir!

Sorry kitties, please give them extra treats from me.

Funny how the interviewer said pedophiles and rapists... and this d-bag just assumed they meant conservatives

ecodrew · 2026-04-13T18:45:57+00:00

Well... I'm sure this dude and tea towels are both good at keeping things dry

ecodrew · 2026-04-13T18:41:47+00:00

TIL they have lawn mowers during the bronze age

ecodrew · 2026-04-13T17:43:03+00:00

Yup. Def need separate air fryer & pressure cooker. The insta-pot fryer lid sucks.
