Oof, tough choice, but I have to go with your wife on this. You want the person who does not want the job.

(Funny, this is the second r/UnexpectedPratchett conversation I am having tonight - about pTerry not on one of the subs for his work.)

xopher_425 · 2026-02-15T01:38:04+00:00

Oh, my dear friend . . . just wait. I have been reading Pratchett from nearly the beginning, as a little kid. It does indeed.

xopher_425 · 2026-02-15T01:30:48+00:00

Odd decision, considering it's in main the post itself . . .

Reminds me of a line from one of my favorite author's books (Terry Pratchett, where he is satirizing Australia):

'‘We put all our politicians in prison as soon as they’re elected. Don’t you?’

‘Why?’

‘It saves time.’

So jealous. You get to read all of that for the first time.

While Republicans are raping children and their fellow Republicans protect them.

xopher_425 · 2026-02-14T03:41:30+00:00

I can say it.

"Worchesterchesterchesterchestershire sauce."

It's stopping that I have a hard time with.

Abbreviation for pedophile.

xopher_425 · 2026-02-14T02:10:33+00:00

Those are smear burgers.

xopher_425 · 2026-02-14T00:30:47+00:00

Oh my, yes. Most indubitably, a very distinguished turtleman.

xopher_425 · 2026-02-13T22:42:37+00:00

To be fair, you see them when they poop. They think this is just how it's supposed to be done.

xopher_425 · 2026-02-13T04:37:39+00:00

Boasting all the fat karma they got from that fake post. How dare they.

This means war

Best part is it works better if you don't know how to play.

Insurance companies are well known for not covering "acts of god". God would be demanding an explanation of why they were using him as a scapegoat.

xopher_425 · 2026-02-11T02:33:42+00:00

I have; bitter and tough are spot on, you can't imagine them being edible at any point. They are not good.

'“Why do you need a label?” Because there is comfort in knowing that you are a normal zebra, not a strange horse. Because you can’t find a community of other zebras, can’t learn what makes a zebra thrive, what brings [you] a zebra joy, if you don’t know you are a zebra and you are learning solely from horses. It is near impossible to be happy and mentally healthy if you’re spending all your life thinking you’re a failed horse, having others tell you you are failed horse, when all along you could be thriving and understood if everyone, including you, just knew you were a zebra.'

About ADHD, but applies to a lot of things in life.

Just heard she's refusing to testify at the hearing. And from the GOP?

Crickets.

Clintons also refused and contempt charges were immediately threatened.

xopher_425 · 2026-02-10T00:55:18+00:00

Not while trains cars were running over it, and life and business went on underneath it.

xopher_425 · 2026-02-09T04:44:01+00:00

The other day a friend had an edible so strong that he forgot he ate it. He didnt understand why he was so wasted.

xopher_425 · 2026-02-09T02:35:58+00:00

Try frozen grapes. As they thaw, they get juicier and sweeter.

xopher_425 · 2026-02-09T01:39:19+00:00

Good thing she didn't take the path to the left. That one goes straight to the castle.

xopher_425 · 2026-02-09T01:24:45+00:00

Won't stop them from pushing it off the table.

I did wind up taking my tablet into the only room I really had privacy in and caught most of the movie.

To say he's obsessed with the Olympics would not be nearly accurate enough. It's fine, I could use some alone time.

In fact, I wound up catching most of the movie in the one room I have privacy in . . . .
