We’ll see if I go back to the mental hospital but I don’t foresee it happening unless work gets really bad again.

I’ve already internalized that this country is populated by shitty, hateful people. Trump winning again just confirms what I already knew.

Was gonna say everyone with impostor syndrome thinks their life is this.

My sister put liquid dish soap in the dishwasher.

Everything is political. What you eat. What software you use. What car you drive.

I admitted that they’re shallow and pedantic.

I hate when people say “rezourceful” instead of “resourceful.” Also I don’t care if it’s spelled “pronunciation”, I will spell it “pronounciation” and say it the same way. You don’t “pronunce” words, you “pronounce” them.

I don’t like that in UK English, they say people are “at hospital” and “he went to ground.” No, he’s at “a/the hospital” and he went to “the ground.” Pace is not something you have, it’s something you set. Collective singular nouns take a singular verb. Manchester City is, not Manchester City are.

Vote for who you think is the best option. Ohio is a pretty safe Republican state for Trump. I will probably be voting for the Democrat, but you should read up on everyone who is on the ballot and make an informed decision.

I bet you’re fun at parties.

I am absolutely drunk as shit and have called off work tomorrow.

Microsoft’s most important customers are businesses, who generally don’t deal with this (they have corporate images). Home users also generally don’t deal with this given they buy a computer that has already been configured.

Linux-based systems have always needed to be better because almost no one buys a computer with $DISTRO already installed and configured.

I had forgotten about that and now I am sad that I’ve been reminded.

If Back to the Future was made today, Marty would have traveled back to 1994.

Outside of the standard “create laws and enforce them equally”, it’s on my profile.

Afflict the comfortable. Comfort the afflicted.

I’m probably leaving the bar. But to answer your question…

Radio, Radio by Elvis Costello.

Again, this depends on the state. In some states it’s a fine. In others it’s a misdemeanor and can carry jail time. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faithless_elector.

If Biden wins the election, but dies before the electoral college votes, it’s a free-for-all. The electoral college can vote for whoever they want.

This is unclear. Some states have laws that say that electors must vote for who they’re pledged to vote for.

Same. I’ve read that this is because that part of your brain isn’t functioning or something. I have no source. Just “I think I heard this once.”

Most people have already pointed it out, but I must say, I don’t recall the last time I ordered pizza and didn’t use a coupon.

Glad I could be of service.

Ahh the halcyon days of downloading one song from a private FTP server with upload ratios, found by Lycos FTP search. Over a modem, natch, so it took about 50 minutes…and that’s when your mom didn’t kick you off the internet so she could make a call.
