Stick a chopstick up one end and see if the perspective improves with that thing being on a handle.

Yeah, there are tons of things to make better and improve on, but things could be a lot freaking worse. (For more people, anyway, for too many people it’s already terrible currently, e.g. Gaza, Ukraine, Sudan, Yemen, Haiti … )

In cycling? Super duper important.

I feel dumb, what am I missing here?

Where Stalin and Mao?

Your downvoter didn’t get your reference sadly!

You’re overemphasizing the nil racism in the meme. If anything, it highlights empathy that life can be harder being born in a less developed country and that that isn’t fair.

Dude Balzac is my favorite author, he’s great. I recommend Lost Illusions.

It wasn’t? I’ve believed this since I was a kid.

That’s for getting you pumped up to fight when you don’t want to and would rather just kind of wander off. The situation described, you’re fully engaged without hesitation or choice.

Yes

You’re a legend.

That’s awesome and a great mentality and focus, bravo.

Yeah the older I get the more shit I want to do, there surely isn’t enough time for it all.

Dude check out April Flowers (aka April Summers) she was the best ever, blast from the past from the 80s and 90s.

Dude I see you around here on the regular, so I’ll mention that this is ironic for me to read this, because we also named our daughter an old, obscure but “real” name that is also a plant (a flower, specifically).

It’s from France, so I asked a French friend before using it if it was ok to use and not a weird name, and they said “sure it’s ok, but it’s like an old grandma’s name no one uses anymore.” And that’s when I knew it was the one!

God I freaking hate that. I have had clients never get it, I keep telling them “we’re cc’ing the whole team here to keep all parties working on this in the loop” or whatever and they just couldn’t reply all. Such a pain in the ass.

You could have just chucked them off the balcony. Ok maybe not but would be fun.

Excruciating is a strong word here.

That’s the laugh I needed, thanks!
