Wife: *intentionally singing WAY off key and only well enough for the tune to be recognizable*
Wife: I love singing to you!
Me: Let me know when it happens...
Got a high five for that one. Well, I self-fived, but that made her laugh, so I wasn't in trouble.

OK, can we please stop doing this "I have a wee pithy thing to say, so it's going to be a huge graphic with no ALT text" thing? Please? I even see news outlets and indie journalists do it.
You can't filter it out with a word list. It isn't viewable by those with screen readers. Just type your shit.

No one ever takes me seriously when I say we should bring back guillotines for politicians who don't server the people.
Is it because I pronounce it "GWILL-oh-tynz"?
I'm saying that right, yeah? I think so. I really think I'm right on this one.

Get you a spouse who, when you get a Brennan Lee Mulligan - level rant going about how you want to quit your job and move to the woods to be a hermit, will hand you a snack you can eat while ranting and then patiently listen until your blood sugar stabilizes

This is literally the reason my wife says "Thank Youuu!" after using Alexa. She says, when the inevitable robot uprising happens, she will be looked upon with favor for being polite.

Yeah yeah. Eat the rich. We're on board. But how best to 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘦 the rich?
In my limited culinary experience, I am of the opinion that sous vide would be the most fun, because first you get to completely seal them in a watertight, thick plastic bag, 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯 you put them in very hot water for hours!

Hi, just a reminder that when you use Libro.fm for your audiobooks, you support independent bookshops vs. large corporations that drive them out of business.
We also pay taxes. And so do indie bookshops.
