Good question. Those of you with sensitive dispositions, look away

I made a folder called 😬 and put a file called 😬.😬 in it.

Directory listing showing the short filename reports the filename is 1EAB~1 - no extension

I also tried some Thai text, some rock dots, and a standard long file name

Best avoid windows then. I was curious. Windows 10 lets you. I do not plan on doing this in anger!

We are in the future. I hummed a few tracks at this, it got them all. Amazeballs.

Wish this was around 33 years ago when I got Under The Bridge stuck in my head, but I didn't know the name of the track because the DJ didn't back announce it.

As a kid I'd put tomato sauce on everything. Used to drive my step mum bananas.

Lock her up and throw away the key. Granddaughter just put ketchup ON SALMON 😱😱😱

@smashrun.bsky.social Anyone had a longer gap than this?

I'm a walker, not a runner, went HARD for a few years back in Aus. Moved to Thailand and could no longer get out for walks without melting into a puddle.

Chucked the shoes on start of the month during school hols. Now getting up at 5am 😆

I see the dolphin too, and it is swimming FAST

I think this lady was a bit suss about having her photo taken. Or dazzled by your hair, which I assume is wonderful.

I used to be cool, man

I accidentally tried a new thing today

On the left: an OG farmhouse vanilla custard filled donut cake.

On the right: a new (to me) farmhouse corn custard filled donut cake. It's also got chunks of corn in it.

If you're in a hurry, don't just grab "the yellow one" or you'll get a chunky surprise

Washing machine shit itself, do it's laundromat for a bit. There's two near me. 24wash is my choice.
Dual language signs 😍
Chonky boy 18kg washer 💪
Super simple control panel 🤪
Easy to use app 🙏

I want an app like this for our Samsung!

This will never not be funny.

I actually quite like it too. Probably because I've not done a two or three bottle bender with it. I imagine it gives a decent hangover.

Haha, asked chatgpt to translate something to Thai for me, then put the result back through google to double check the result. Glad I did, I reckon I'll not put that first line into the Line group😅

I am quite proud of this photo.

Every year, work has a getaway. Everyone goes, has dinner, networks, etc.

I am UNBELIEVABLY shy. Brain locks up at the thought of interacting with strangers in real time. Incredibly uncomfortable.

This year, I decided to walk up and say "hi" to someone.

Go me!

*thumps chest*

I did a thing!

Pressure for the shower has been getting worse and worse. I finally got around to doing some troubleshooting. Turns out it was the tap itself. Off to Home Pro, sales dude took me straight to a similar looking tap, back home and installed it, fantastic pressure again!

This is a lie, right? This happens on a LOT of the orders - it claims that the courier was sent to pick up the item, but they failed to pick it up, so they'll schedule another one. It's just a way of stalling and buying time so they look quick, right?

Maybe even a pair of them

Doesn't get much fresher than this. Dancing shrimp. Sadly we had to take them home and they'd stopped dancing in the 30 minutes that took.

Konec prepaid SIM from Australia has cool packaging!

Or maybe they saw me taking a sneaky photo of this sign (to let wife know I was in the queue (she's never been to the airport, not sure how it would help)) and thought they'd teach me a lesson

Instructions unclear. Ate bag. Did nothing.

Err... no

I'd rather lick my butthole than drink Americano. From a can. For 49 baht. Yikes!
