a) I would not be driving a car with my child in it if I was so tired that I would forget I had a child. The fuck?
I hope you’re thankful for a lifestyle where you have that option. We should all strive to build a world where everyone does.
I’m sorry you went through that. I’m glad you got your trapper keeper, though. Your mom made the right call.
I felt the same, until I had my first lousy sleeper (child who had trouble sleeping due to minor health stuff). After a month of lost sleep, I couldn’t remember my own name sometimes. I read once that sleep deprivation is effectively brain damage, and after that experience, I believe it.
The left shoe trick - throwing my shoe in the car next to the kid - probably saved my kid’s life more than once.
One kind of parents who have these tragedies are tired ones. Which is most parents with small children.
Edit: not relevant in this case, but I’ll take any chance to advertise the shoe trick.
I’m forced to assume that you are now surprisingly attractive, as well. That’s the way out goes with the person I never noticed in school.
Of course, part of it might be that my definition of attractive grew up to be a lot healthier than it was when I was a kid.
Oh!
As they say, them who laugh lasts, probably needed a minute to think about it. Today, that was me.
I’m going to start talking in vague terms about my own designs for a “Corsi-Rosenthal Box” when I want to sound smart.
It’ll be great if anyone bothers to look it up.
It still is, it’s a standard for imaging devices.
Oh, thank you. I had forgotten that!
And also a nightmare.
Yes. Now that the memories are coming back, I do notice most of them aren’t very nice…
It’s an acronym: T.W.A.I.N. (edit: a backconym, as was pointed out - I’ve also heard that the weird upper case name came first, and the weirder acronym was added later.)
“Technology without an interesting name.”
And… That’s all I remember about it, at the moment.
Well, also that it broke often, and threw weird errors like the one pictured.
Sorry. We need to learn to ask nicely.

Just so you know, this isn’t Reddit. You’ve just been blocked by everyone reading along here.
If you start to feel like no one replies here, it’s actually you, in this case. It could help to try again with a new account.
Sure some people might say hi back but that doesn’t mean they’re a friend.
True. But I’ve had some great friendships grow after years of just “hi” in passing. We weren’t friends yet, but we were destined to become friends.
Thanks for the heads up. I’ll be buying one at the first opportunity.
My other action figures are going to have to stand in the shadow of the glory of “it’s just Jack Black, I guess”.
(No sarcasm. I’m really going to buy this. I love the idea of Jack Black just playing “Jack Black”.)
Yes. Web apps existed before JavaScript.
