Noted rhenium hater and **undefeated** youth soccer coach (total of one game coached).

Pinned
I want to be able to pin another person's post to my profile.
THAT'S A GREAT JOKE!

I immediately told my wife. She pretended not to find it funny (she's pretty good at that)

I'm going to get a good grade at meetings, something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve

Where's the "This loser is always 15 minutes early because of severe anxiety issues" warning that I would get?
January 12, 2026 at 7:42 PM
Apparently. The article has a couple of other photos/videos of the incident.

What else can you expect a billionaire to do to get his child sex fix now that Epstein is gone?

Also the dryer is fixed but I don't have a song for that one.

It was on the "Bedroom #2 and closet" breaker, now also labeled as "doorbell".

🎵Ding dong, the doorbell is fixed!🎶

For reference, the doorbell ringer is (logically) next to the front door while the chime is in the hallway next to our main bedroom.

It is not on the breaker for the front porch lights, the breaker for the hallway lights, nor the breaker for the main bedroom.

Today's big question: what breaker has my doorbell on it?

My youngest child got to pick out a calendar for the year.

10/10. Fantastic choice.

This is the list I have that I'd even play with other people's kids in the car. I do limited cursing in music with my kids. My oldest is in middle school so they've heard everything I imagine.

We did end up with a playlist of songs with minimal swearing. "Feeling This" is both of my kids' favorite. My youngest is now in drum lessons due mostly to listening to blink. It's been a net positive I think.

So I'm discovering with every new day this year...

So this is why biologists were doing all those fruit fly breeding experiments. It wasn't to learn about "genetics" (sounds made up to this chemist).

They created an intelligent super species!

On third thought, listen to blink-182 in the car with your 7 yo.

I did and my kid turned out [looks at my kid] uh okay I guess.
