I motion that we immediately install Replit AI on every server that tracks medical debt. And then cause it to panic.

Anyone else have one that doesn't know how claws work?
At least it looks like he knows where claws should work...on the post and not the couch! 😂

So that means Chipotle will lead by example and start paying all their employees a livable wage, right? ... Right??

Can I route CAT5 through a toilet?
No, it is not possible. The ethernet cable sends 0's and 1's, but the toilet line can only send 1's and 2's. All your 0's and 2's will just get stuck.

Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny appearing in the Superbowl, and racists come out

I am, of course, disgusted with your proposed choice of Super Bowl halftime performer.
The even more obvious choice was to have Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce enter a civil union during the Super Bowl halftime, during which Taylor will not take the Kelce name while also announcing she is 4 months pregnant and the unborn child should be referred to as "they/them", killing nearly 40% of all viewers.

Or, you bottle it up inside and let it slowly destroy you.
I assume we both know for the same reasons. I'm sorry my dude.

Just because you're a slob at home do you have to be an inconsiderate slob in public
This is outrageous and unacceptable. Who the heck wears a beanie indoors?!? Winter hats come off when you go inside, this is just basic human decency.

The nice thing about being a pessimist is that you are always either right, or pleasantly surprised.

What old movies hold up because of a lack of special effects or because clever use of effects?
You want old movies? How about Royal Wedding (1951). It has a scene where Fred Astaire dances on the walls and ceiling. There's no cgi or special effects, it was just done with a simple camera trick.

This toilet paper at my work
My friends, I would like to share a story with you.
August 2023. Afternoon. I am sitting at my desk in my office. The tell tale signs of something brewing begin to make themselves known. After a time, I reluctantly acknowledge that I won't make it another 3 hours until I get home. I trudge downstairs to the less populated floor, as one does. An empty stall appears. I seat myself on the porcelain throne and an epic battle ensues. 15 minutes later the moment of dead arrives. I reach over to the dispenser and proceed to unroll.
Halfway through the standard multi-stage folding process, necessary to create something suitable for use, I pause. Something is different. This can't be right...this is...no, that's impossible. I look closer at the material in my hands. I rub it between thumb and index finger. I stare in disbelief. This is soft, comfortable, 2 ply material! Gods be praised! I proceed to give myself a royal treatment; the cleanest, most wonderful experience! I feel like a king as I wash my hands and return to my desk.
I dare not speak of this to anyone, for fear the mistake will be discovered. Over the next few weeks, I make several returns trips to the same location and am treated to the same royal cleaning. Life is good!
October. I have grown complacent in my comfort over the intervening weeks. One fateful day I make the trip downstairs, now fully expecting to do business in comfort. Post excursion I reach over, my fingers make contact with something akin to sandpaper. My hand freezes and my heart drops. The most wonderful 2 ply material is gone, replaced with the old standard rough, semi transparent tissue that always results in rectal bleeding. I curl over into a sitting fetal position and morn the loss of my comfy companion. Perhaps I shed a single tear, or cry or in pain, the memory is too traumatic to recall clearly now.
Six weeks later. Was it all a dream? Did I imagine the 2 ply material from heaven? I don't think so, but it has not returned. Maybe, against all hope, it will return in the future. Only time will tell.
TL;DR - my office had 2 ply toilet paper for a few weeks and it was the most amazing thing ever.

To be honest, when I found out the patriarchy wasn't about horses, I lost interest anyway.
