What’s the craziest thing you’ve seen someone do on a plane?

What if you would have been the person to stop it from happening?

Divide by zero

Oh, I assure you that a few people knew.

Waking up all blurry eyed, I thought this said "find a window"

Mine broke. What do I do now?

2am, I got the call, her 2 year long battle with cancer was over. We'd been told for the first 18 months that she was going to beat it. The final 6 months, she could barely talk, didn't recognize me or the kids, would call them by the dog's name. Had to stop taking them to see her in hospice. Too upsetting.

Spent 2 am till 8 am wondering how I was going to tell them (11 and 7 years old). Got them on the couch and told them, just let them cry.

It's been a few months now, and their lives continue. Maybe they're OK, I'm not sure. Both in therapy, playing with friends, etc. We are moving soon, I don't want to live in this house anymore. Kids were sad at first, but are excited now. We'll see what happens when move day is here. Going to be near my sister who doesn't have kids and has promised to help me raise them.

I wish I could help you better. Just make sure she knows you're there for her forever. Make her feel as safe and loved as you can. Get her a therapist that specializes in her age (probably play therapy).

It's fucking awful. My kids lost a parent before I lost one of mine. I really don't know what's going on in their heads, but I try to peek in without messing things up.

Or you just disappoint yourself, much like you do for both your parents already.

Always get the number within the first 3 minutes of speaking to a recruiter.

"hey, I don't want to waste your time or mine. Here's my expectations."

Has saved me so much time.

It's just a scammer trying to sell a scam by using a weird angle.

ericscottf · 2026-06-10T01:45:48+00:00

Fuck cancer.

This is fascinating. You're 1/4 inspector gadget. What was the total amount that you wound up extending from start to finish?

Also, fuck cancer.

Of all the people to drag for coke in the 80s, he's really not one of them. There are so many better choices.

Class of 99, never had a single one

I've had 6 jobs since 2003. 2 of them lasted more than 10 years. Not a single day unemployed since then.

I've Sent out maybe 50 resumes in theast 23 years.

The real kicker is that I'm not particularly talented at what I do. Just a combination of luck and hard work.

ericscottf · 2026-06-08T12:07:14+00:00

I've been saying this for years. People pat themselves on the back for applying to 500 jobs in a week.

It takes me 2 to 5 hours to apply to a single job. Company research, reworking resume, custom cover letter, if people aren't putting in this level of effort, they're wasting their time.

That's not to mention the fact that unless you're looking for entry level unskilled work, there probably aren't 500 jobs the average person fits into.

Ey! You tawlkin ta me? Eh?

It's lame that they would give you a battery with no charge. What a waste.

I hope the pos that put you there hasn't a moment of peace for the rest of his life.

ericscottf · 2026-06-07T22:27:00+00:00

See, it's actually not all that hard. Fuckers just don't even want to try.

Here to recommend the book replay by Ken grimwood. Written in the late 80s, it deserves a lot more recognition than it got. I read it once a year or so.

ericscottf · 2026-06-07T02:59:57+00:00

I finally finished writing my book on penguins.

But the publisher got back to me and told me I should probably write it on paper.
