The image is a meme about sleep deprivation, featuring text and a vintage photograph of an individual with an exaggerated, gaunt appearance. The text reads: "Doctor: Are you getting enough sleep? Me: why do you ask?".

It sure should have. Here are screenshots of the PCB mechanical specs and the rotary magnetic holder mechanical specs. The holes are .5mm larger than the pegs. Both are supposed to be round. I tried to rotate the plastic and put ONE peg into ONE hole, rotating it and wiggling it; it didn't fit.

Yes, I know that Europeans know how fractions work, at least as well as we do, even if they don't understand what inches are.

...

Yes, I'm being snarky about them not knowing what inches are. I'm in a snarky mood. Work with me here.

The product failed, because most customers thought the 1/4 pound was bigger. This is why I don't argue online.

Peg A: measures 3/32" using my nice caliper thingy.

Hole B: measures 7/64" according to the very same measuring tool.

Result: Peg A does not fit into Hole B, even with a fair amount of force.

For those not in the US: Not going to explain how fractions work, but 7/64" is larger than 3/32".

If you wanted my favorite, though, I'd probably pick Thick as a Brick.

Three-pane comic titled "When Your Cat Finds You Dead." In all three panes, there is the body of a woman lying on her side on the floor. Pane 1: A cat is approaching the body. Pane 2: The cat is sitting down and meowing. Pane 3: The cat is lying in meatloaf mode on the woman's hip.

But NONE of my content has any purpose. It's just me trying to puff up my ego by getting positive feedback for cleverly posting memes that other people have created.

...

I GUESS that's a purpose?
Caption: Here is an actual photo of that pretty lady asking you to send her a friend request Photo of two young men in their 20s sitting in front of a wall with at least 30 cell phones that we can see, all attached to rails that have been installed on the wall for the purpose. There are multiple power strips attached to and spaced along the wall, each with several phone chargers, and a cable going to each phone. The phones appear to all be the same model. There are several groups of phones with very similar screens, suggesting that this is some kind of scam mill. The man on the right is performing some kind of operation on one of the phones.

Mr. Incredible hates the time change too.

#daylightsavings
Jack Parr a.k.a. Mr. Incredible in civilian clothes standing behind a desk, bent over, holding a pair of glasses in his right hand. You can see the left hand of his son Dash who is otherwise out of frame, and a book on the desk in front of Dash. There are several crumpled pieces of paper on the desk, a pencil, and a small notepad. Jack is shouting and appears offended. He is looking down at the notepad and pointing at it. Caption: Time is Time! You CAN'T change time! (This is a still from the movie Incredibles 2 where he is shouting "Math is math! You can't change math!" when he is trying to help Dash do his math homework, but discovers that they've changed how they teach the subject and gets frustrated.)
