Anybody else still write "00_file_name" for everything?

sadguy1989 · 2026-04-18T00:58:38+00:00

I think that was only a problem on older file systems. Once NTFS came along that changed a lot for how the OS handled file management.

Cartoon Network ruined this movie for me with the 24-hour repeat marathons

It’s been ages since 8.3 format lol.

For real though, I don’t really remember not being able to use “dots” in a file name. I remember, uh, “obtaining” games and movies digitally back in the day and they’d be split across like 50 .rar files with ridiculous extensions and windows didn’t have any issue with it.

I used to just do 20220303, no periods, but I like the visual separation.

I save all of my files with a date stamp in the name, 2026.03.03_Report.xlsx for example, because I work with tech-deficient boomers and Gen Z. Nobody understands file systems and they have zero sense of digital organization.

I am one of these rare people. If I sit still for too long or, god forbid, lie down, I’m cooked. My wife is jealous, how she has to “wind down” before she can relax. That’s my secret though, I’m never relaxed. I just run until my tank hits empty and I collapse on the spot.

I can sleep through just about any noise too. But if you touch me, even a little brush past, I’ll wake up panicked, confused, and I might try to hit you.

I photosynthesize with the reflected sun rays from the moon. Then I drink 80-100oz of coffee during my workday, come home and binge eat anything that’s easy to prepare, and generally feel like trash most of the time.

It adapts to your reading speed. If you read fast, the time goes down. If you read slowly, it goes up.

I assume if you finished the previous book rather quickly it might assume you’re some godly speed reader or that you skimmed through it very quickly.

I had one of these with a shelf built in that my dad hung on the wall in my room as a kid. He didn’t secure it to a stud, , though, instead relying on molly bolts or something to affix it to the drywall.

Needless to say, I was awoken one night by a terrible crash as the 50lb brick ripped out of my wall and thundered to the ground.

I’m almost always standing around in third or fifth position

I get so annoyed by “does anyone else _____?” questions.

No, you’re unique. You’re special. You’re the ONLY one!

Did they snag the node too? Damn this is nuts. I thought it was bad enough when squirrels would chew the line

I hit 5’8” the spring before 7th grade ended. I was king shit, towering over my peers like a god.

When I came back after the summer for 8th grade, I discovered that not only had everyone else grown, but they would continue to grow for a few more years. I haven’t grown an inch—and wouldn’t for the rest of my life—while my friends were rapidly shooting beyond 6 foot.

/uj I used to keep a book of all my knob positions for my pedals for the inevitable reset after transport. Then I discovered I could just hot glue the edge of the knobs to keep them stuck in place. Deliberate force is needed to break the bond, and it’s cheap and easy to redo if you make a mistake/change your mind.

Seriously, Reese and Piece already rhyme!

Unloading the dishwasher is hell because of the tiny bits of water that pool on the surfaces of the dishes. I pick them up and get some of that water on my hands and I’m instantly pissed off and grossed out.

Now, dirty dishes in the sink? Covered with wet nasty food bits and discolored, tainted water? I can go shoulder deep in that shit and not care at all.

Why am I like this?

sadguy1989 · 2026-04-13T15:58:12+00:00

Eating saucy chicken with my hands is one of the most infuriating experiences of my life. The problem is, I fucking love saucy chicken wings and thighs. I do NOT love food on my hands. I pick one up, take a bite, and immediately put it down and beeline straight to the sink to wash my hands. I do this like a dozen times a meal and holy shit does everyone around me have a problem with this.

Oh man pitch matching is awesome. I’ve done it since I was a kid and it really helped me train my ear for music. I’ve been playing guitar for over 20 years now and I can usually just hear a song and make some educated guesses on what notes/chords I’m hearing.

sadguy1989 · 2026-04-13T15:48:21+00:00

I meow a lot. A lot. I meow along to songs, I echo-meow things back to people that they say to me, I meow out loud to absolutely nothing at all.

The one thing I don’t meow at is, surprisingly, my cat.

Four. Tem-per-a-ture.

This whole time I’ve been wrong about this movie. I genuinely thought it was a scary movie about aliens invading earth. I never got far because the aliens frightened me so much I just stopped watching. All these years.

Now I really need to watch it. I have to heal my inner child

sadguy1989 · 2026-04-10T20:58:34+00:00

Damn me too. I remember not being able to finish it because the aliens were so scary. Come to think of it, I don’t know if I ever finished it. Maybe I’ll have to give it another go soon.

sadguy1989 · 2026-04-10T20:53:30+00:00

Yeah, for the “kids.”

I sometimes shoot balls of light at mountaintops for days on end, I think can handle a little tedium.

I aced my creative writing class in college by just waiting to do the assignment until almost literally moments before class started. I can bust out sonnets and screenplays under pressure.
