I’ve been awake for too many hours and probably nothing I post right now should be considered a reasonable take

  • Don’t let anyone tell you being a comedian is easy.

    my dude, i’ve spent many, many hours workshopping and rubber ducking jokes with comedians far better than me. it’s why i keep reusing the same jokes, like any good shit comedian i stole half of them. but i’ve never seen anyone say “hey, your joke needs some more work” to someone they didn’t know better than you did here and i just wanted to give you a little verbal hug.


  • i mean, having a couch on the porch is really nice. it’s just getting one that can stand the elements, or having one that can’t be covered, or blah blah. don’t knock lawn couch til you’ve tried lawn couch. i mean it’s still not as comfortable (or nasty) as fuck couch, but it’s still pretty nice.

    i have a rescued, rehomed, and quadruple steamed fuck couch and oh dear gods it is hard to stay awake on that thing. it’s like a cushion roofie.







  • Yes I quite agree I mean what’s the point of being treated like sheep. What’s the point of going abroad if you’re just another tourist carted around in buses surrounded by sweaty mindless oafs from Kettering and Coventry in their cloth caps and their cardigans and their transistor radios and their Sunday Mirrors, complaining about the tea - “Oh they don’t make it properly here, do they, not like at home” - and stopping at Majorcan bodegas selling fish and chips and Watney’s Red Barrel and calamari’s and two veg and sitting in their cotton frocks squirting Timothy White’s sun cream all over their puffy raw swollen purulent flesh 'cos they “overdid it on the first day.”



  • Similarly, if I give admins and server owner both the power to delete the server, with admins having to vote a simple majority in order to do so, it basically creates a mutually assured destruction scenario, where both have to co-operate.

    if you were an instance owner you would also want to run that by your lawyer. i’m not a lawyer but i have not had coffee and i can see four different scenarios that having a killswitch like that would get you in neck deep shit. stuff like willful and premeditated destruction of evidence, depending on the severity, blah blah blah. short version, everyone i work with works in pen, not pencil. not because we’re that good (we are) but because if we need to remove something from any records, you (generally) do it by amending the record to show the correction, not deleting the error.





  • So like, this is a solid yes you can. It won’t be good or enjoyable to eat (it’s borgor guys meat like they have you overcook it to prevent any chance of sick after damn Sheila, so it won’t kill you and if it makes you sick, well you’re the one who cooked it aren’t you?

    So here’s how I freeze meat (or anything really) in the deep freeze. We package every portion as a single person’s meal, unless we know it’s going into a larger meal like chili night (we freeze a bunch of MY CHILI THAT’S WHAT I WAS THROWING AWAY WHEN MY FREEZER THEW AND I JUST REALIZED IT (QAQ) sorry post freezer thaw stress disorder I meant to say like, two ladles of chili per hook and loop bag in the normal bags and a quart in the big bags).


  • i’m from the bay area in california. i went to college in utah (please don’t start i know i was an idiot. i still am an idiot (thanks mitch) that’s how i know) and my absentee ballot would reliably arrive the day after the election. i tried having it sent to my parents and having them mail it to me in a nondescript envelope and it arrived on time. HUH I WONDER WHAT WAS GOING ON AT THE POST OFFICE IN UTAH, since that didn’t happen to me when i had my california absentee ballots sent anywhere else.


  • i make the doctor waste his time and watch me put one on my heel every time i have surgery. i’ve got a few jokes to go with (my favorite is that i plan on living forever and no one’s killed me yet. I also like the one about mailing me to my mother in law for one last prank if they fuck up) but like, it’s a good use of… i think this roll was 42 cents a stamp that’s worth a chuckle) but like, we’ve all got our little rituals. And they haven’t killed me yet.



  • i… actually using the heat water as a byproduct and diverting the water from a hydro dam’s spillway and then back into the river might be one of the more environmentally responsible ways I’ve heard dreamt up to deal with one of those bullshit centers. slap it right next to the dam (which are already noisy as fuck) and you’ve just created a minor ecological disaster instead of a superfund site. i mean i think he’s onto something, i just don’t think it’s ready for publishing. “it’s a good idea that now needs a human polish” like shoe polish not Poland Polish i know i’m irresponsible with my capitals but not that bad anyways this might be the thing to get him to step back.
