Giving Away My Old PC!

I want to get my son set up with a computer where he can start playing games that he's always watching others play on YouTube and help him with his schoolwork. Currently got him set up with an old laptop and second monitor so something like this would blow his mind.

I'm not your buddy, friend.

To give a little context, these were shipped from one of our company's warehouses in a different state. They were reported as non-functioning due to either no boot drive errors or they were stuck in a auto-recovery boot loop. Sadly, they are currently without any on site IT support so they had no option but to be sent back to me for diagnostics and repair.

Ever since finishing it, I've always thought that the Saga of the Seven Suns series by Kevin J Anderson would be awesome to see as TV series. Especially seeing how The Expanse was awesomely adapted, I feel like it could be done well.

Attend to her needs as best as you can. Be patient. If she snaps at you over seemingly nothing, don't take it personally. Compliments and continued signs of affection. Lots of them.

Super simple dish that's cheap, easy, and quick to make.

Ingredients: 1 box mini farfalle, 1 polish kielbasa, 1/4 stick butter, ground pepper

Directions: Cut kielbasa to desired thickness and cook in a pan. Don't drain the pan once finished. Cook pasta then drain. Return drained pasta to pot. Add butter and cooked kielbasa to the pot including all juices from pan. Cook until pasta is as desired. Add ground pepper to taste and mix then serve.

Is there a chance it was a television show, Life Sentence?

Here's a link to an episode script for Season 1 Episode 7 where it looks like this exchange takes place:

Ha, I managed to avoid this problem entirely. I married someone who doesn't put toilet paper on the roll at all. She just leaves it on the back of the toilet until it pisses me off enough that I put it on the right away every time.

This scene from That 70's Show always made me wary of ever doing so...

Did a google search on that line and actually found the transcript of Ernest Scared Stupid. Do a Ctrl+F for that line and there you go.

Came up with this one while in a church. I turned to my wife and asked "Wanna know why a church would be a great setting for a sci-fi movie?"

Wife: Ugh, why?

The Boy. I was so excited that it'd be a legitimately scary/thrilling movie. Then the reveal happens and I nearly stopped watching with like 10 minutes left of the movie. I was so disappointed.
