It’s brutal, isn’t it?

When you realize that your parents also wanted to eat cookies and Ruffles all the time too, but they didn’t want to die early and are just making you eat healthy so you don’t die early.

Ugh…

The Genie knew. Genies are jerks.

Why is the Original Tribal Chief in this meme, tho?

Florida is purposefully trying to destroy it’s own public school system. They make being a public school teacher so undesirable, and then complain about a “teacher shortage”. Of course nobody wants to be a public school teacher in Florida. You can get fired for how you address someone?

I bet they’ll do it in Waterfall too.

Nah B. This will be Extreme Agile XP with testing exclusively in Prod. Xitter will be the code repository.

Your basic needs aren’t being met. That is horrible for any human. I’m sorry… I’ve been there.

The part that really sucks is you don’t get to really understand this until you’re in your 30s/40s. We spend all this time trying to fill a hole in ourselves that can’t be filled with stuff.

There are people reading this right now who are like “yeah, right”…

Yep. Once your basic needs are met and you’re not in poverty, any happiness above that line has to come from within yourself.

Meh. I grew up dirt poor, and I am now what past me would have considered successful.

Funny thing about it, though, I’m still me. I’m that same dirt poor teenager, just older. It didn’t change me like I thought it would.

Absolutely, the lack of money will make you unhappy. Without a doubt. But I’ve never got a 20% raise and felt 20% happier. You’re always gonna be who you are, money or not.

Google Assistant on Android and Home devices gets markedly worse as time goes on. My Google Home can barely even figure out how to turn on lights anymore. Things that used to be amazing have devolved into “I don’t understand”.

It’s really quite shocking and hurts a little bit because it feels like everything in the world is degrading and decomposing like in some dystopian novel or something.

How can such amazing technology get worse? Is it really just “we can’t make money off this”?

That song would work! Now to convince all the Taco Trucks to play the same song so we know when they’re around the corner.

“It’s Raining Tacos” would work.

The song is not public domain though.

Just to be clear I don’t want to own and run a Taco Truck, I just heard the Ice Cream Truck and wished it was a Taco Truck.

Seems like missed opportunity to me, though.

I stopped being excited for the Ice Cream Truck decades ago, but if I heard the Taco Truck coming around I’d be super excited and run outside with a big grin.

Seeing a lot of talk on here about keeping Standard or DST.

Oh my God for the love of all that’s holy just let them pick one!

I don’t care if the sun comes up at 2:00am or 2:00pm or even if the sun fuckin’ sets at 12:00 noon. Just pick a time and stick with it. Holy shitsnax.

Yes. I have a buddy who is this person. I’m not kidding.

He is a big Star Trek fan, but he is also literally the only T.J. Hooker fan that I’ve ever met, and he was a T.J. Hooker fan before he was a Star Trek fan. (It’s worth noting we’re both in our late 40s.)

Coming across this randomly on a Wednesday evening renews my faith in The Internet. I was starting to think the whole thing was a bad idea. Thank you!

Don’t threaten me with a good time.
