"Wow, I must say you've aced the technical. There are a lot of other strong candidates as well, but feel free to grab a complimentary mirror on the way out."

"Thanks, I'll reflect on that."

Or whenever you have to use the ATM.

CASH! Aaah aaah.

This might be more mainstream than what you're looking for, but this is the video that I think of from that time.

I mean it's pretty obvious if you think about it. They probably ordered a side of continental nuggets and the worker was nice and gave them one of each continent.

I canceled my sub, but sadly not out of principle on the AI thing. I just accidentally hit the button that accepts an upgrade to the family plan and it didn't look like there was an easy way to undo it so I just killed the whole subscription.

I can believe this - that Trump was paying Epstein for pedophile shit and Clinton never got involved. I also find it pretty easy to believe that despite never being involved with Epstein, Bill Clinton is a scumbag and a rapist, considering the numerous allegations against him:

It's not proof per se, but with politicians these days, I believe it's most accurate to find them dirty and corrupt until proven otherwise via their legislative actions (to wit, I'm not holding my breath vis-à-vis 99% of Congress).

Yeah, my friend group absolutely did this stuff when we were young adults

That's a really good heads up. I hadn't thought about it much from that angle - that I might already be doing damage that's hard to reverse.

I got my blood pressure machine from the basement and the first reading was systolic 141 diastolic 78. But I had just climbed stairs from the basement. I sat for a couple minutes and now it's 115 over 75. Less anxiety inducing. Definitely something I should be tracking frequently and not have tucked away in the basement though.

It does work though

I remember being thrilled to move from floppies to a 16mb flash drive for my school assignments, even if I did have to constantly download and reinstall the USB Mass Storage drivers for the Windows 1998 sp2 computers in the library which reset every night. And the transfer speed was SLOW.

The fact that you can get a terabyte flash drive now, which can hold 62,500 of my school assignment drives, is mind blowing to me.

I see why you're ExtraMedicated.

Yes, but this poses me with a self identity dilemma. Am I the type of person who takes a blood pressure medication that happens to treat their adhd, or am I more the sort who takes adhd meds which happen to treat their high blood pressure?
