A veritable cesspool of information.

It is well known that one of the circles of Hell is people trying to learn how to work with drywall. What is less well-known is that one of the lower circles is tasked with fixing their mistakes. If you've been particularly bad, you get sent to both.

I missed the Lanthanides of March and the famous Shakespeare quote of Mark Antimony: "I come to barium cesium, not to praseodymium."

A friend pointed this out to me years ago that men's pant inseams get shorter as the waist size gets larger, and it is not because pants are worn lower. I confess that in college I wore 30/36 (waist/inseam) pants. Now they are 36/30. If I get any bigger I'll be able to make pants out of my socks.

I used to keep a bottle of glass cleaner on my desk for when people would touch my screen. I don't think that I ever needed to spray anyone more than once.

Let me just say that whomever first advanced the idea of turning something off and back on again to fix it, was definitely not a plumber.

Every time I see someone use the abbreviation LBD I immediately think "Little Black Dog" and I'm always disappointed if they mean something else.
