“Alright, brain, I don’t like you and you don’t like me. But if you get us out of this, I’ll go back to killing you slowly with beer.”

“It’s a deal!”

What’s your favorite Bible verse? (Wrong answers only)

Through the darkness of future's past,
The magician longs to see.
One chants out between two worlds...
"Fire... walk with me."

Comic. [Person and person with white hat facing two boxes stacked with $80 price tag and sale tag on each box.] PERSON 1: They want $80 for this? I could make one myself for $10 in parts, an hour of work, a trip to the hardware store, another $30 in parts, another few hours of work, two more trips to the store for $20 more in parts, another hour of work to redo the first hour of work because I messed up, and $80 to buy this when the one I made breaks.

They used to be all over Behind the Bastards (a couple of years ago?) and then they dropped, but then or a replacement are probably coming soon. Also gold investments.

I'm sure your AI manager will listen carefully to your concerns and give you generally positive, unspecific advice.

I think about what some comic said about these “older man, younger woman” relationships - “what do you even talk about? What do you have in common?” It seems hard to think of any sort of day to day life with two people in such different cycles of life.

I was working with a therapist in ‘21 and in an aside she complained about how her investment portfolio was doing under Biden vs Trump and I immediately thought “I don’t trust this woman any longer”

What a perfect commemoration of a bad philosophy and design in an underperforming package.

I think they’re paying “the signature collectors”, not the signers. It still leads to a lot of perverse incentives and fraud.

I remember my dad had a Murphy's Laws of Engineering poster. The aphorism that stuck to me was:

"If carpenters built houses the way programmers write software, the first woodpecker that came along would destroy civilization"

I actually went skydiving for the first and only time for my (first) bachelor party. Because I’m an obsessive nerd I looked up the statistics and saw that you’re much more likely to die if you’ve jumped 20-50 times than in jumps 1-5. (You get cocky and think you can do cool shit before you’re ready)
