  Damn, I didn’t realize the Yen had gotten so weak. I was still using the “drop two zeroes” rule.

  I don’t know how you could make it clearer than just leaving off the last letter.

  Just because you keep your step stool next to the toilet doesn’t mean you’re Squatty Potty-ing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨egg⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  He’s referencing a legitimate talking point about birth control, and in that light his comment made perfect sense. The whole second half of this thread reads like you got whooshed and then double downed after you realized what happened.

  Did… did you click the link?

  Your second example is a perfectly worded admonishment, if the claims are true. Sunlight is the best disinfectant and all that.

  You are on desktop. You have so many ways to deal with that problem it’s not even funny.

  I know it’s been said a thousand times, but the books really are immensely better than the show. And they have a proper ending! The last 3 unadapted books are arguably the best part of the series, and Alex is there since there was no dipshit actor to get himself fired.

  Some of the boards use a system called tripcodes, which are essentially a username and password in one that are used when writing individual posts. It allows people to prove that they’re the same person across multiple posts, without anything as identifying as a user profile attached.

  If he’s been at it long enough to paint a wooden sign about it, I think the authorities are aware.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3001: Temperature Scales⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve heard this too. It also allows for easily making your own thermometer, since you can just divide by 2 until you get all the way down to degrees.

  I find it very difficult to believe that you don’t like a single Spielberg movie, just on a quantity level. He’s made so many at this point, at least one must tickle your fancy.

  As someone in the inside, what’s the rationale behind having to publicly post jobs like this? Why can’t you just offer the job to the person you want to give it to?
