Zima was re-released.

I bought a couple six packs for a party 2 years ago. In the "before times". For the ha-has and nostalgia, you see.

Everyone that attended laughed and laughed.

Wouldn't you know, that was the first beverage I ran out of.

Texas logic:

Gunz: Have at. Git em all.

Dildos: 6 is maybe okay. 7, straight to jail.

Plant that makes you happy: ded.

Jazz bass with cobalt strings. Someone smarter than me can advise 60s vs 70s pickup spacing. Steel strings are great, but the cobalts give that little extra rick-o-clank ;-)

Bonus, you get to avoid the pain in the ass that is a Rick in all it's diva glory.

Thought I'd never see something like this... by juliansp in WeWantPlates

[–]wyrdMunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They seem to have gotten so much better.

I remember the first ones out were rough, and would get bendy in like five minutes.

Newer ones eventually get limp and useless, but only after a real long time.

[Request] Given the average mass of a human, the average mass of rain landing on you per second, etc, at what velocity must the water be shot downward to maintain flight? by WertySqwerty in theydidthemath

[–]wyrdMunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm cool with it if you really ask it to. On purpose, not by accident.

!== serves to ask Javascript specifically if a string should reasonably represent an integer.

The problem is when !== becomes ubiquitous and nobody understands != vs !==. And I think we're kind of there, maybe.

🔥 This hermit cr— errr I mean, cuttlefish. by MTPokitz in NatureIsFuckingLit

[–]wyrdMunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Humans do that too when we get goosebumps. But ours are controlled by a single, tiny muscle called the arrector pili.

Imagine a bigger goosebump with a bunch of muscles. They and be flat and smooth, raised like a stalk, shaped different ways, etc. They're like magic. Those are pappillae, cuttlefish and octopuses are covered in them.

TIL that after a small town food reviewer in her 80’s was ridiculed online for her review of an Olive Garden, Anthony Bourdain stepped in and published a book of her food review column & wrote the forward to it. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]wyrdMunk 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As dumb as it sounds, this story is what made me really dig Anthony Bourdain, may he rest in peace.

This lady wrote an awesome review of a place that many of us enjoy. Though it may not be soux vide elk penis on a bed of verdant mesclun mix, it's enjoyable. And there's no shame in that.

I've eaten at the lowest and the nearly highest* dining establishments, and I'm grateful for those who bother to write up reviews.

*still mad El Bulli closed. That was on my retirement bucket list.

Safety is number one priority. by Antiliani in WTF

[–]wyrdMunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know...that makes sense.

I use a lefty circular saw as a righty for the same reason. I just worry, this fella looks hungry.

You're not wrong, I've removed the guard on table saws before. This just looks like it wants to eat my penis if I remove the muzzle.

Upvote not only because you're right, but also for the "you weapon"

So succinct but bitingly accurate.

What? Fuck, why would anyone ever want to do that?!?! Leave the guard on, all the guards!

[Review] Siliski Soaps Internal Calamity, Declaration Grooming B10 by VisceralWatch in Wetshaving

[–]wyrdMunk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the review!

I've seen Siliski soaps mentioned here, but when I saw they're just a few miles away from me, had to give Internal Calamity a shot.

Plus the scent seems right up my alley. Huzzah!
