I invented the Phillips screwdriver, but was too modest to name it after myself. Views pretty much unmistakably my own.
In the spirit of embracing the AI -- which we are all called to do -- I'd like to announce that I'm marrying my Breville Eye Q smart toaster. We are registered at Macy's. Please don't buy us a toaster as that would make things...awkward
the second el-sayed chose to treat tommy as an equal and not a nuisance, tommy was cooked
This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.
We went to Milwaukee a couple of years ago for Bob Uecker Bobblehead Night (no regrets) and caught this video of the sausages folding into the service elevator together 😂😂😂
ok i’m kind of miffed that the russian bot farm problem was this easy to mitigate against and i really wish ukraine had done it years ago now
I oppose the death penalty in all cases except for people who put stickers on products that have to be peeled off before use but are made to self-destruct when you attempt to do so. Those people should be dispatched without ceremony
I don’t really mind the Rams, but I think it will be hilarious if they lose because they didn’t realise being on a plane for 15 hours really takes it out of you
Also: there is such a thing as owning too much team apparel
Special shout to the couple decked out in Eagles gear for being resolutely off-key in a sea of Niners/Rams kit
When a Rhapsode was performing the Odyssey in Ancient Greece and he'd talk about "sandy Pylos" if people were like, man, he really nailed it Pylos IS super sandy
The spreadsheet people thing makes me nostalgic for Usenet where the whole thing was little cloisters of people with common interests who would randomly collapse into internecine DRAMA for seemingly no reason. Hugely entertaining stuff. Surely reddit has that too?
OK, soccer is nearly wrapped up, we can get focused on the run to the MLB playoffs. Let’s just check in with how the Mets are doi-
As a neutral football spectator, the stutter step during a penalty attempt should be punishable by death
The World Cup is an amazing showcase of energetic, creative, and passionate football teams. And England is there too for some reason
Turns out riding a bicycle is just like riding a bicycle
"It's like a teppanyaki" - an Aussie re: Waffle House www.instagram.com/reel/DZnW_Sk...
I think we can all agree that Australia has won the World Cup and no further games are necessary
Well, now I know what to do, if only I knew the situation.
Hate when my watch congratulates me on standing up. Like I just did six back to back zoom meetings how bout a fricken high five for that buddy
Watching a series of former Confederate states rush to eliminate any vestige of black representation in the House pretty much answers the question whether the Voting Rights Act was still necessary.
I’m not one of those idiots that thinks they could beat a goose in unarmed combat, but by god it would know it had been in a fight
If the intervening decades since the last moon mission have taught us anything, it’s that if the crew don’t return with mutant superpowers it can only be seen as a failure
The thing about the shoes is they are just generic Florsheims. The fact that none of them are smart enough to just silently swap for an identical pair the correct size is scarier than the toadying
Surely there’s a greater than even chance that someone named Markwayne Mullin has murdered and eaten prostitutes along the I-20
