Endless supply of cheap pizza delivered to the picket line.

Is it solipsistic in here or is it just me?

There are a bunch of aptronymic last names, especially in English culture. The Baker family, the Tanner family, the Shoemaker family etc.

Don’t ask about the Dickinsons.

Similarly, I want to know what a reach-around is.

Back home, it meant that when you’re giving someone a bj, you reach around and finger their butthole.

I move out west and people are saying that it’s when a guy is banging a guy from behind, he reaches around and gives the receiver a handy.

In these trying times, America needs to know.

I woke up every day worried that we’d nuked Spain overnight.

A buddy of mine is a wine steward. He quit smoking and said “Holy shit I can taste wine again. I’ve just been making it up for years!”

A fuel injector is measurably better in basically every way.

I might still rather have a carburetor…

It’s surprising how many people will plug in a random USB drive that they find. Apparently that’s how the CIA got the Stuxnet virus into Iran’s system and nerfed their centrifuges back in the day.

Tony Hawk is a grandpa.

MacArthur was a bit crazy in that regard…

I have met many, many school teachers in my adult life and the vast majority of them are lovely people. There has only been one who I’d describe as a psychopath.

Alcoholics? Absolutely. It’s a toss-up between teachers, lawyers and nurses for the hardest-drinking group of motherfuckers I’ve ever known.

Ocarina of Time

If I’m a coworker in this situation I don’t care. If I’m a manager in this situation I just don’t bother training them on anything but the basics for the job.

Related to Dunbar’s number. The human brain is only capable of really recognizing around 100 people as actual people and understanding interactions with them. Everybody else in the world is only a person in a vague, nebulous sort of way.

CAT5 was right there…

Caffeine and anger.

Been a long, long time since I’ve been to /r/seattlewa. They were a big part of why I quit reddit. Is it still a cesspool of hate and bigotry, spewing anti-homeless rhetoric and jerking off Jon Cho and Jason Rantz?

Yeah. ‘Suicide plug’ Is a misnomer. Should be ‘homicide plug.’

The danger isn’t plugging both ends into the same circuit. The danger is when there’s a downed power line, somebody plugs a generator into their outlet to power their own house. The genny backfills the line, so this line that everybody thinks is dead is suddenly live. All of a sudden the poor lineman who is trying to fix it a mile downline gets electrocuted while standing on top of a 30’ ladder.

Yeah, but there was way more pizza.

I can sing the Blazing Saddles theme song pretty decent. Final offer.
