How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!!
No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

Instead of integrating pointless AI tools into all their software, maybe Microsoft could make it possible to save changes to a Word document while working on a second Word document instead of freezing my whole laptop for daring to multitask in the advanced year of 2025.

It won’t surprise you to learn that we really don’t like Strava’s approach nudging people to replace shoes unnecessarily based on outdated research.
We’ve had some unsuccessful engagement with Strava on this topic.
