You ever get the vibe that game show hosts are just wildly unpleasant to be around when they’re not hosting game shows?

Ibuprofen is a gateway drug to middle age.

late-90s computer peripherals are all like. appears as a normal 3-button mouse. but the buttons have different icons on them resembling a globe, a star, and an arrow. when you press the left mouse button, instead of clicking, it types the string "www.website" into your computer. pressing the middle button opens the AOL signup page. when you press the right mouse button, it opens up realplayer, and, after 45 seconds of loading, plays a short low-res video of a guy yelling "i'm surfing the web!"

I love that we're just letting a sociopath moron billionaire set up a system of private satellites that circle the Earth like we've never seen a movie before.

Few things distress me more than Republican primary voters.

saying "I was wrong" in meetings: boring. puts the blame on you.

"I hallucinated": modern. shows you're using the latest tech. it's not your fault you're wrong.
