I bought one of these used and I've been so sad that I couldn't get the plotter working again. Maybe this summer.

@pikesley @cstross

I download a CAR every single day.

@sugar

mmm mmm almost but it doesn't scan.

@cstross

We should just let them go on thinking it was a ritual.

If you wanted a guy to fancy you? You HAD to burn him a mix. The way that turned out could tell you everything.

That's how I found my husband.

Harry Enten is the CNN journalist who reports the polls. Since, I like polls I've seen him a few times in video clips of his segment. I've always found it really strange. He sort of shouts and waves his arms about each poll and makes some jokes about how "VERY BAD" or "Incredible!" or "no change" the poll is.

He sometimes explains important concepts such as "margin of error" but mostly turns numbers into adjectives.

I try to help the ants keep on the DL and crumbs in the middle of a room is not helping their case.

okay, Lucifer…

@RogerBW

I can't believe so many of them fell for that one again. Good lort.

@timrichards

You don't want to read a twelve part "investigative journalism" series on how terrible lawns are?

"You Car is Too Big: Part Five, Why Your Huge Car Makes Everyone Hate You."

I want my own newspaper so I can run stories day after day trashing things I don't like.

OK some conservative editor at newsday has commanded the newsroom to try their best to make "we hate public employees, they have decent wages and healthcare" their new theme.

They ran this story right after the misleading one about "educators" (superintendents) that make "$300G"

Now it's LIRR (Long Island Rail Road) ... LIRR did have an overtime corruption problem a decade ago. But this new stuff is totally manufactured.

@delcj

Do any of these design people think about these things? Like at all?

I bet most people have a gross "crumb and soon to be sentient dust bunny" zone under there. You can clean a few inches in with a mop, and use a broom to get the cats toys out... but it's gross.

Literally corners of the mouth trembling trying not to just start laughing.

I wouldn't care about them eating if they didn't make so many crumbs and attract actual mice. Our janitors don't deserve these messes. Anyways.

The seventh graders were sneaking pringles in a study hall. They hid them under the table and kept going under there to munch munch like little creatures.

At last I ducked under at the moment one of them "dropped a pencil"

I would like an award for keeping a straight face while telling them to stop.

"I can't believe you are eating under the table. Like mice. Wholly unacceptable, Jane."

Everyone is shocked and horrified. This is very dire.

I was so close to cracking up.

@mensrea

On the times I've cleaned

I Have Seen Things

@jerzone

This is disturbing me because you may be correct.

I am sitting here filled with guilt since in like 17 years I've only cleaned under the stove and fridge like four times. Gross right?

Yeah, but I need help to move them. This is bad planning. I have been set up to fail and feel gross.

So, this weekend I plan to clean under the stove. I've bought some tile glue and a replacement tile in anticipation of the floor being so bad it needs to be replaced in that area. I'm ready.

However: Can I ask a question please?

How exactly is one supposed to keep the area under the stove and fridge clean? You know, in the ideal world? Are we meant to move it every month?

Why are there so many designs that are not sealed off OR open enough to fit a mop?

@Nocta_Senestra

No it's a real board. They simply have not bothered to have keycaps printed to match whatever layout they have programed.

@troublewithwords

Oh yeah. Drafting only.
