5 years ago I decided to teach myself C++ so I could attempt making my own game.

Moe has learned a new trick: Torpedoing from across the house, into the bedroom, onto the bed, and crashing full speed into my face while I’m asleep.

“50 is the new 30,” I say, as I gag down my heartburn medication and climb into bed at 8:45pm.

Was having a sad today. Nothing specific, just The General Malaise. Then I saw this and my brain squirted out a solid dose of dopamine and now I have nostalgia sad, which is the nice kind.
