    Me: Is that the Young Einstein album on vinyl? Has that been in our house the whole time??

    @diversionary Apparently it’s the “Special Edition.” The price tag says $17. He told me to guess how much it’s worth now. I had no clue. “About $15.” 😂

    @brettporter Pffft. Amateur. Real webmonkeys like me used “s.gif” because it had fewer characters, and we actually cared about keeping page weight as light as possible back then. 😂


    @unixbigot RIGHT? WE MUST BE STRONG!

    I understood all of them except the Fruit Salad one. The Snook and I managed to puzzle it out. One of the perks of being childfree, I guess. https://t.co/mNzBElrAaq

    Me: “This heating pad annoys me with its safety feature that shuts it off every 90 min.”

    The Snook: “Here, I hacked a smart plug for you so it cycles off and on every hour to avoid that.”

    @gilmae Both E. What a world we live in. 😂

    @gcouprie Whoops.


    @shermozle Thanks. Was worth it for the satisfaction today. 🙂


    Even though I’d heard some of this before, I was still shocked to see phrases I’ve used in JDs called out as turning candidates away. Time to revise… https://t.co/6DAl4nI9Iu


    @nothergeek Of course I don’t use those!

    @georgiecel And on the flip-side, I can’t even tell you how many times I have typed :shrug: into other apps. 🙂


    This is fascinating. I was always aware of AO3 but have been dipping in more lately (mostly off the back of Good Omens). I hadn’t known how it works, or that it’s nominated for a Hugo! That’s really cool. https://t.co/9JrbqMJC82


    @JodiMcA OH WOW! That’s fantastic. Perhaps I shall celebrate by finally signing up as an official user. 😂

    @randomknits He now has 3. It’s basically a religious cult at this point.


    @randomknits He says the comparison is more apt than I realised. He lives on a giant farm complex, and the mayor regularly gives him money “for various reasons.”
