"Hey... ok, I'm sorry"
-"What kind of sorry is it?"
"What do you mean?"
-"Is this a 'Sorry for party rocking' sorry or a 'Sorry seems to be the hardest word' sorry?"
"...I'm not sorry anymore"

A: "Isn't casting going to be hell?"
V: "Nah, 3 people"
A: "And many locations?"
V: "Nah, a driveway in Albuquerque, New Mexico"
A: "Sold"

My favorite hobby when I'm at my parents place is to open up the very well stocked fridge and call out loudly "there's nothing to eat in this house"

It's a miracle that I'm still alive.

Happy Holidays, with some jam on the side.

Ahh, to be as useful as a roadside webcam in Iceland during winter.

All silences are possible Tequila performances.
Most fun when you're in a crowd and nobody knows that you're performing it.

"What's your favorite song?"
-"Tequila by The Champs"
"Yeah that's a really fun song"
-"The acapella version"
"...uhm... so a minute of silence followed by..."
-"Tequila"
"...ok"

Incidentally, if you suddenly feel like making your own Original Atmospheric 3D Space Landscape (do not steal), the browser emulator Infinite Mac - infinitemac.org/1993/System%... - also has a copy of Bryce 1 under "Infinite HD - Graphics - KPT Bryce"

As an Atmospheric 3d Space Landscape artist i hate when people make Atmospheric 3d Space Landscape art similar to mine without crediting me.

I work hard on clicking that "generate mountain" button and then people just steal my work.

He's making a list? Sure... I'd go with a sequential container but ok.

He checked it twice? That sounds unnecessary. Isn't the list behind a mutex of some sorts? I know lock free programming is very hip but there are better ways of data sharing.

Why is it when a news story hits and you Google it, the news websites that Google features on the front page are all ... less know ... pages.

It's always stuff like:
- News365TimesNewsDaily
- International Business Daily News of the Times News
- HipCoolNews
- FlargonPress․ShadyDomain․biz

I might need vacation because when I looked outside today I genuinely thought "wow, the graphics are really nice today"

Am I afraid of the Icelandic Yule Cat? No, I've dodged that fucker my whole life, I'm not letting my guard down now.

I just realized that I can doomscroll on my TV, and now nothing will ever get done ever.

End of the year YouTube view analytics fun facts.

People are 2x more likely to watch a video of mine from the YouTube frontpage than from my actual profile (click through rate)

People searching for a video of mine had 7x more views than people sharing them to friends (like via discord or whatsapp)

I got a video call from one of the Icelandic Santas. He didn't wanna tell me my naughty/nice status.

I asked him if he was coming to Norway. He didn't know what that was.

Aww, someone put the yellow box and "jam on the side" in my home town on Wplace.

But of course (and validly) it's all about Stefán Karl being number 1.
