I went to my family Christmas with my then-partner. I got a Grinch onesie from my family

We then attended my partner’s family Christmas where basically the entire living room was stuffed with presents for the kids (my partner and their siblings). My then-partner complained about how the siblings all got more $$ worth of presents. I pointed out that I got a pair of pjs for Christmas. The reply: “it’s not about the dollar amount, it’s just they got more than me” (paraphrased)

I hated that present. A fucking onesie? It was such a disappointing present, and for a long time I used it as an example for questions just like this

I kept it and wore it. Eventually I lost the bitterness and started to cherish it even. Which is why I still wear it regularly this time of year! It’s quite warm… plus, it has pockets!

Grinch tax:

Just cast him as all the roles. in everything

My PS5 is 4 months old and my fans have never been that loud. Not even when two have been on and running at the same time. Granted we weren’t playing disc games, but still… Fan noise shouldn’t be that loud

I’ve installed stardew on nearly every mobile device I’ve owned

You convinced me to buy it for my PlayStation and I’m loading it up now 😂

I’m not familiar with M.A.S.H. (though I know of the show) to know that song. So I read it to myself to the tune of this beaut

I did too. But I played when they had the starter zone and sadly never got very far out of it. Once in a while I’d find someone who’d invite a high level character to clear a dungeon (or what ever the eq lingo is) but never was able to venture much outside the cities

What a fantastic picture! I genuinely hope that they had a decent life

The middle guy in the back looks like a natural born comedian!

Helen Keller possibly?

So, anyone with an android can let you use theirs and the “find device” app in guest mode. Your info won’t be saved but that option is there for exactly your use case

I never questioned the y but always read it as a G

Did you have “parallelalegal” in mind before you wrote this or did it come to you after? It’s brilliant and will be stuck in my head for a while

GLORY

I had no idea what I was getting into clicking that link. Saw another comment about it being 40some minutes long but I watched the whole video, it was very interesting! I was tickled by all the things that I can remember from growing up that were referenced

An aside, do you have first hand knowledge of tinkering with trackers?

I didn’t know that was a thing until I saw a reference like this a couple years ago so looked it up.

Believe you me I immediately grabbed two cartridges and asked my kiddo if they’d like to lick one. They’re very bitter

I use sync for lemmy

It’s an interesting idea. I’m not here really to give my input either way, but I just wanted to note on my client, the animation is a static image and when tap on it I get this message:

It’s not an issue, but it ends up opening the in-app browser and from there plays as a video

Also, the app has some info it includes when trying to open files, not sure if it’s useful:

It’s not a big deal at all and if you don’t care I apologize for wasting your time. But people here seem to like puzzling out little issues on the fediverse.

Thanks again for the original post, though! It’s a fun approach

My friends have the same mop as me. My mind was blown when she unscrewed the cap at the end, pulled the mop head off, and threw it in the washer versus how I’d been painstakingly washing in the bathtub and feeling like an idiot because no matter how hard I wrung it out I couldn’t get it to dry

My world was changed that day as well
