There’s always a relevant xkcd

God, I spent so much time I didn’t have playing KSP.

On the plus side, I did learn the basics of rocket science, so it wasn’t a total waste of time…

My God, is there nowhere I can be safe from being reminded that my beloved SFG are utter trash this year?

Not to mention “barley in middle school”

I don’t know about you, but I think that’s pretty good for a cereal crop.

“Riker treats objects like women, man!”

if I only had the nerve noive

FTFY.

It’s actually not (just) the acidity. Pineapples and several other tropical fruits have an enzyme called papain that breaks down peptide bonds in a rather unique way, to the point that the texture of the meat can become quite off-putting if the enzyme is not used properly

Edit: acidic or not, it’s definitely best not to put any sensitive parts of your anatomy in pineapple juice

I believe that’s a cantaloupe.

Thanks! I knew I recognized the guy and the quote, but I couldn’t place it until you gave me the Banksy quote. Thierry is a real piece of work.

Anyone who’s ever abused ketamine or DXM knows that dissociating from reality is relaxing.

After all, have you seen reality lately?

Wait, it’s all projection?

Always has been.

As someone who lives in this same town, black bears are more like overweight raccoons.

Fun fact, our “city hall” is at the tiny community airport, which also had a restaurant with the best chicken wings in town (salt and vinegar wings FTW). The restaurant was still going when this happened in 2019, so my guess is the bear smelled the food and went looking for the kitchen, only to get sidetracked by the city council meeting.

You’ll be hard pressed to find someone deny basic science in today’s world.

They didn’t outright deny it (out loud), but they cast doubt and equivocate about the parts that don’t agree with their preexisting worldview.

Jesuits have done some decent work for humanity, but they are not scientists, mostly because they start from a premise they want to be true and find evidence for it instead of the other way around.

Edit: in fact, why did knowledge need to be “curated” through the Dark Ages? I’ll give you a hint: it starts a “C” and ends with an “atholicism”

Not OP, but mine was really pretty manageable. 2 days of sitting in an easy chair and icing my balls, 2 days of “walking is fine, but avoid any sudden movements,” and a week of “it’s a little sore, but it doesn’t really hurt.” After that, it was about 2-3 weeks where I didn’t really notice it unless I moved the wrong way too suddenly (whereupon I’d get a quick twinge, but nothing too bad).

Really a pretty small cost for the benefits. I don’t really like painkillers, but I do recommend some THC gummies for the first week and a fresh series to binge

I get that! I’m partial to “getting two birds stoned at once” and “people in glass houses sink ships” myself.

making gang bucks

I think you mean “like gangbusters,” but it’s totally possible “making gang bucks” is a term I just haven’t heard before.

Cheers!

I’m inclined to agree with you, but Valve doesn’t often miss

Whoa, whoa, whoa, let’s not overreact here. There are only a few cases where wishing that upon a person is acceptable, and I’m not sure this qualifies as a war crime.
