Me too! I use a helix garlic press because it’s easier to press and does a better job.

Like this one:

Also, if you don’t have one of these silicone garlic peeler tubes, get one! It makes peeling garlic super easy.

My guess is “Code 99” / emergency priority.
Press your floor & then 99 and it heads to your floor without any other stops.

I think she spells it “Melania.”

My girlfriend (at the time) slapped my ass hard while I was bending over to pick up my underwear after we had sex. She missed… I guess she didn’t realize that when bending over, balls are exposed from behind.

Slapped me full force right on the berries. I let out a yelp, fell over, and had a wheezing/laughing fit. It was both hilarious and incredibly painful. She was laughing & apologizing/trying to help me up.

Wait, I thought he did get hit by the beams and they sent him back in time, and through what could only be described as an exceptional demonstration of determination and willpower, he worked his way back up through time- through ages & ages, to confront Darkseid again. Maybe we’re thinking of different storylines?

Spidey’s parents and his uncle who helped raise him are all dead/murdered. All three are orphans, so that all cancels out. :-).

Peter Parker only became spider-man once his uncle was killed, that set him on the path to use his “great power” with “great responsibility.”

I’ve always theorized that his power is “superhuman willpower.”
He has the massive will to obsessively train, study, and do all the things he does. Becoming one of the strongest, smartest, and most effectual people alive. I doubt any human has a higher willpower than Bruce Wayne. He has even out-willpowered Wonder Woman’s lasso-of-truth.

I thought he had powers because he was born on Krypton under a red sun, and all Kryptonians gain superhuman powers when exposed to a yellow sun.

I’m a system administrator for a relatively big SaaS for a relatively big company.

I was attempting to configure a new inbound email protocol in the TEST environment. I needed to reference how it was configured in PROD so I could copy certain settings into TEST, so I had both up on my screens (you can see where this is going). But first I needed to clear out the old cloned configurations in TEST.

…And not even half a second after I deleted those config files did I realize what I’d done: deleted inbound email configuration on PRODUCTION. In the middle of the day. Killed inbound email for the system for the whole company.

The whole reason I had PROD open was because I didn’t have good documentation of how it was configured (what was cloned into TEST was old and not correct). So now I was seriously fucked. I had to redo the config from scratch live in PROD. Even tried backing out the deletion but that failed.

Had to advise my boss of the fuckup. He was new. Had only been with the company for like 2 weeks. I had to assure him that I am NOT actually a total fuckhead and I usually don’t do stupid shit like this. I felt terrible, because I knew he’d have to give the post-failure analysis review on this to his new bosses, and that would definitely be awkward.

Anyway, he was cool with it. Assured me that he’d done something similar at a previous job. He let me do my thing to fix it, which I did. Inbound email was only down for …well, a long time (3-4 hours), because once I was able to get the config working, I had to re-register all of the inbound email addresses to use it -which had its own sordid story. That took some time.

After the fact, we modified the TEST environment to have a different “theme” (header colors) so it wasn’t identical to PROD on-screen, and I documented the email configuration thoroughly.

lol. My wife called me “cottagecore” because I got a tattoo of a snail 🐌 on my arm.

There is no “left wing media.” “Left wing media” is a myth.

Whenever I’ve encountered propaganda or have been flamed for talking about human rights, etc. it’s been from instances ending in “.ml”.

I don’t know what that means, but I would like to be able to block all “.ml” users.

I’m sorry. I just loathe U2. Not as much as I loathe Journey, but it’s pretty close.

Pet Shop Boys cover of “Where the Streets Have No Name (Can’t Take My Eyes Off You)” - it’s a two-fer; both songs are pretty insipid on their own but their cover / mash-up is fantastic.

Dylan can write beautiful music. He just can’t sing for shit.

They call em “bog rolls”

The cool thing about wind and solar power generation is that you could build one in your backyard.

For nuclear power that is seriously frowned upon.

Arrogance and ignorance.
