Well that sucks. I am guilty of really only following Risa, mostly due to big gaps in my watch history and wanting to avoid spoilers for the newer shows. I’m not surprised though… Reddit had (and still has) tremendous amounts of inertia.

And now that you know, feel free to join us in the rabbit hole!

Successfully pulling off a lift-and-move like that was huge. I wish more niche/fandoms had followed suit instead of staying put.

I worked in a “datacenter” where the humidifier function for the HVAC unit was turned off because it leaked under the floor into an adjoining office when it was trying to humidify. Management refused to fix the unit due to the cost, and saw no issue with running the room with relative humidity in the teens all winter. Madness.

No thank you, I just ate.

Similar story here, except instead of no help, I got a green nepo hire with a doctored resume that I was expected to babysit. I gave it a couple of months to bake, just to make sure I wasn’t overreacting. Nope, he was useless. I walked.

“I was unsure of whether I could trust y’all with this info, but after talking with you a bit I think it’s time to come clean.” And then start talking about Second Impact as if it happened IRL and not in a famous anime.

American here. My ISP blackholes certain sites at the DNS level. Easy enough to work around, but it’s there.

I can’t think of a time in like 20 years that they actually had the thing that I went there to buy.

Like a few folks have mentioned, I bought my last two TVs there. If it sucks or it’s a bad panel or I just don’t like it, I just box it up and take it back to the store. No wondering if it’ll get damaged in shipment or ganked off the porch (or take a day off and hope it’s delivered when it’s supposed to be).

They’re also really good with getting in amiibo, but that’s a super niche thing.

Til all are one.

This is the way.

Thank you, CaptObvious.

…you know, your username makes it difficult to sound sincere when addressing you.

Honestly immigrants … still believe in the American dream

That’s because they’re new. Just wait until they’ve had the rug yanked out from under them a few times while someone tut-tuts about bootstraps.

Must’ve been the wind farms.

I happen to like having the edges of my fingers or hand touch the screen inadvertently every time I pick up my phone. Bonus points if it’s unlocked and something unintended happens as a result.

immediately thinks of the alternate ending to The Butterfly Effect 🤔

That’s how they get you.
