    The internet as it was in 1996

    Was anyone else a fan of BOFH? We printed up every story, put it in a binder and labeled it "New Employee Orientation". The first page was a tutorial on reading email headers. Then the boss (who had no idea WTF it was) made the new guy read it. That new guy is still one of my best friends to...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I don't think there's any reason to believe what snoke said about rey's parents. It wouldn't exactly be retconning to find out he was lying.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    In the EU it was a different dimension. Like an HOV lane on a highway. The hyperdrive motivator generated a bubble that got you into that space. Similar to warp speed from Star Trek. But the reason you think of it as a series of shortcuts is because of how they have to plot routes through...

    Aquaman (2018)

    Just saw this last weekend, and it was good. I'm pretty sure it benefited from extremely low expectations. I'm curious how they did all the underwater movement. Some of it was cool (the fight scenes), some was really weird (people just strolling around). The main bad guy looked like the was...

    The internet as it was in 1996

    I remember the whitehouse.com kerfluffle. That was during the clinton regime, wasn't it? Don't click on it now, it will make you sad. I also remember www.mammaries because there was a country song about it, and hotmale because it came up a few times in tech support horror stories.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Well if you can't spend the money right now for the guitar, talk to her about how you're going to save the $800 for the guitar. Start a guitar fund. It's not unreasonable to treat yourself once in a while. Hell, make it a perpetual "treat yo self" fund.

    Thanks, that's what I thought. So far the only EQ questions I can come up with are related to office drama.

    Is holly associated with (answering questions about) EQ1 and EQ2, or only EQ1?

    Naw son. He got that from mauling children. When they struggle it tends to rub the fur off the muzzle. That's why he's so tired right now.

    Archery - As a Hobby

    In a world where people still hunt with flintlocks, I don't know how you think no one hunts with a long bow. I've known 2 people who hunted with long bows. The bowmaker I bought my longbow from (I bought the one he had been hunting with) and my karate teacher. There's no reason not to hunt...

    Only ever gave money to 2 beggars. 1 had a sign that said "Why lie I'm going to use the money for booze". The other one, the car in front of me handed him a half eaten burger and he wolfed it down so fast I think he almost ate the wrapper. When I say half eaten, I don't mean it was cut in...

    Cheated out of my youth

    that makes sense. But it still looks like a picture of a picture of the broken cell phone sitting in a manilla file folder. I mean look at the james bond spy shit that had to happen to finally leak one of these photos. What the fuck is wrong with america?

    Archery - As a Hobby

    Longbow if you want a challenge. Recurves are easier to shoot because the arrow doesn't wobble as much in flight (lookup archer's paradox). But if you want easy, then use a compound bow. Well if you do it like I did, it sure is. The weekend shoots have a lot of walking, and if you shoot...

    Archery - As a Hobby

    I did archery when I lived in austin. I have a recurve and a reflex deflex long bow. I never cared for those compound contraptions. When I was doing it, I went to a few archery competitions, and I sort of miss those. You walk through the woods and take shots at 3d targets through and around...

    I stand by what I said. When they figure out what fm is, they'll call it by another name. Fm is totally a diagnosis of "we don't know wtf is wrong with you". That's why it should piss off anyone who isn't an addict to be diagnosed with it. The dr has given up on fixing you. I'm not saying none...

    You know that a diagnosis of fibromialgia is the doctor's nice way of saying the shit's in her head, right? If he settled on that it means he doesn't know. Make sure she knows this doctor she loves is calling her a lying attention whore. If that doesn't motivate her to find another doctor...

    Been catching these games on the nfl channel at night. Pretty good, but I need to become a fan of one of the teams in order to actually get interested. Is there anyone in this league as entertaining as HE HATE ME?

    Why can't she feed the kids but not eat till you get home? I think that would satisfy her need to talk to an adult and your need to have a pleasant dinner.

    Fiber gummies taste better than real gummy bears. But you don't wanna OD on those either. I didn't know they had gummy multivitamins, I'll have to look into that. Flintstone vitamins were good so you should have learned self control at a young age. Or he believes that stupid should hurt.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I don't have the same situation, but it's close enough that I can say you'll be OK with it if you chose to be with her. In my case what I miss is being able to fuck all night. She's a one and done kind of girl. When I was dating I'd usually get 3 nuts and at least twice as many orgasms from...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I like the idea of anal better than I like the anal itself. Sometimes I think about putting it in her ass to push me over the edge. But when we actually do it about once a year, it's too much work (she only wants it missionary style so adjustments have to be made). I'm glad that I'm with a...

    Naw. You'll be dealing with that question again. She'll digest it and wonder why they had to be blind. Eventually it'll build up enough pressure that she'll blow a gasket. And not in a good way. You may never know that you're dealing with this specific question again, but you will be.

    Just took an anonymous survey for my company. As soon as I completed it I got an automated email from the HR director thanking me for taking the anonymous survey. LOL. Good thing I'm smart enough that I never believed the survey was anonymous. I just thought they'd be more low key about it.

    I tickled the shit out of myself onetime with one of those robo calls by asking her what she was wearing and trying to get her to phone sex with me. Then 30 minutes later I got another robo call and it was a male voice, so I started saying the same stuff and was disappointed that his answer was...

    I had a similar experience with the wired Logitech thumbwheel mouse I like to use.

    You should be able to fix that. Somehow. Unfortunately I don't know how. We had our IT department fix it on some machines we sent out to customers. But when it happened to one of my machines, I just left it. The only downside I've seen so far is that I get nagged every time I boot up and I...
