I used to play ARGs, I used to own ferrets, and I used to like PAC-12 USC football. I now apparently like LARPs.
Ugh - Gmail is getting rid of POP downloading? This is going to be super annoying.

That commercial broke the Lay's address validation.

I see the Clydesdale with the baby bird and all I can think of is that one video of a horse who sees a small chick walking past it and lunges and eats it whole.

I tried the Arctic Raspberry Liquid IV the other day.

It was one of the most disgusting things I have had. I think I had two gulps and then dumped it out. I even had to rinse the glass and put more water down the drain because even the smell made me want to gag.

I'm aware of one of the little known secrets about live sporting events is that they will often foley in sounds that they can't get normally.

What I don't know - are they adding in the sound of the tiny drones that are everywhere this Olympics or are those sounds being picked up by on site mics?

The livestreams of the Olympic events where they don't just run endless commercials are amusing.

Currently, they are resurfacing the rink at the Speed Skating event. There is a light show going on and the dj is hyping people up to do a sing along to a weird rendition of Country Roads.

Onesies in the winter time are great until you have to pee and your arms and shoulders all of a sudden do not seem to want to bend in the way you need them to.

My second needle felted coo I think turned out better.

The giant heads are disturbing

Just a reminder - there is Olympic curling on this morning.

(If you can stream a non-US feed though, I would highly recommend that)

Oh NBC. I’m not sure who designed the “Watch Replay of [Event]” experience but I hope that from now until the end of eternity, just when a tv show is getting for them that they are forced to watch 2 minutes of commercials and then have NO way of being able to rewind to see what they missed.

Thanks Google for showing me that there will be curling matches tomorrow after I clicked on your curling logo today.

It would have been nicer to know that the matches actually start TODAY AT 1:05pm Eastern so that I could have brought something bigger than my phone to watch the games on.

I’m in my element now with the Ship of Theseus bookclub discussion. Someone asked how the Playfair Cipher worked because they didn’t get it.

If there is one thing I know how to do, it is how to write up a puzzle solve walkthrough.

I seriously hate people.

I was grabbing a cart at the grocery store and a person coming out pushing an empty cart decides just to leave it in the middle of the walkway, walked past the end of the cart corral, and started out the doors.

DMV trip successful. But I’m not sure why I had to go in at all. They didn’t ask for any of my documents except my old license. I COULD HAVE JUST DONE THIS ALL ONLINE!

Will I watch this movie more than once? Probably not.

Will I edit the damn subtitle file so that it actually syncs and has all the fucking dialogue? Yes.

I mailed a bunch of postcards when I was in Scotland at the end of October.

I think the last person just reported in that they received theirs 3+ months after I mailed it.

I have no idea where the UK Postal Service sent these postcard, but I hope they all had a nice trip!

Son of a *!@&#%

The NYS DMV is closing on Friday for a week and a half (or more) to upgrade their systems.

I need to renew my license by the end of the month. And because I only have a Real ID and not an Enhanced one, I can’t renew by mail & have to go in.

I was planning to go on Saturday 🤬

I think I definitely prefer the UK Traitors over the US version simply due to the fact that the UK version doesn’t have all the stupid ass commercial breaks.
