There’s a starving furry artist out there who would jump at the chance to take your commission.

He didn’t drain the swamp, he just added overt facism and called it gazpacho.

The article is full of typos, too.

Who let this dreck out the door? Did Forbes lay off all their editors or what?

You made your bed, now lie in it.

That’s what I figured after thinking about it, that there had to be some procedural reason for it.

Which, funnily enough, would also qualify the murders as first-degree under Minnesota state law: https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/cite/609.185

The suspect faces several charges of second-degree murder.

This baffles me. Looking up your fucking victim’s addresses isn’t enough evidence of premeditation to qualify for first-degree charges?

As someone with a lot of web backend engineering experience, this had me yelling at the screen at a few points, but really cool nonetheless.

“Get the soil ready!”

The problem is that my brain would immediately jump to picking apart the premise of the question. How did it happen? Is it permanent? Is your consciousness trapped in there or is it gone forever? The kind of thing that’s obviously just going to piss off the person asking.

I feel like what the question is really asking in a very roundabout way is whether you love that person unconditionally. That even if something happens such that they can no longer be the person you fell in love with, that you’ll still love them just the same. But that’s the problem: as a cynic, I believe all love is conditional; if it doesn’t seem like it, that just means you haven’t found out what the conditions are yet.

Obviously that’s not the right answer. So to me, it just seems like the question is a trap. Either you accept the preposterous hypothetical and give some sappy answer to make the other person happy and avoid a fight, or you get outed for the cold, unfeeling asshole that you actually are inside. But maybe that’s the point.

In the unlikely event that I end up in another relationship, what the hell is the right answer to the worm question? I’m pretty damn sure I’d get it wrong.

You? Where else?

Nah, REAL MEN dip their balls in a boiling hot solution of concentrated sulfuric acid and 30% hydrogen peroxide. So cleansing.

I got tons more but my legs are starting to fall asleep.

This is my biggest pet peeve. There’s tons of businesses around me that leave their Open signs on all night.

It’s like, what’s the point then? It’s not like there’s anyone out there shopping for a fucking mattress at 1 in the morning.

If you find yourself unplugging things a lot to turn them off, you may be interested to hear the switch was invented not long after the light bulb for exactly this reason.

1. As if that’s the only reason you’d ever unplug something.
2. Vampire loads. Turns out, most things don’t completely turn off anymore. Yes, it adds up.

So do we. But we don’t need as many of them, usually just for areas with a lot of electronics like entertainment centers or computer desks.

US electric code requires an outlet like every 6-8 feet (~2m) along a wall so you shouldn’t need to string extension cords everywhere. For the most part, it works pretty well. I have 5 outlets alone in my 12x12ft (~3.6x3.6m) bedroom.

It does not. Some devices may have that on their plugs, but it’s certainly not standard.

One night when I was 14, I tried to plug in my phone charger beside my bed in the dark and was accidentally touching one of the pins when it made contact.

Fortunately, I wasn’t completing the circuit and I was electrically isolated laying on my bed, so I didn’t actually get shocked. But I did feel a buzz in my finger like you get from those prank toys that shock the victim. That’s a sensation I will never forget.

Not defending our plugs at all.

Regardless of where you are, can we all agree that no one’s really perfected the electrical outlet yet?

NA plugs make contact without being fully seated, and can leave their live and neutral pins exposed. Worn outlets just let plugs fall out of them (I have 3 or so outlets in my apartment that are borderline unusable because of this).

British plugs are bulky and turn into caltrops when dropped on the floor.

European plugs have the same problem. And you only get like, one outlet per receptacle? Guess you’re shit out of luck if you wanna plug anything else in the same spot.

Most of the rest of the world just copied Europe or the UK.

I like Denmark’s plug though. Cute lil smiley face.
