If you're interested in words, Something Rhymes with Purple is a podcast with Susie Dent and Gyles Brandreth.

Whenever Gyles is on Qi, about half the episode is him going off on an anecdote.

Edit: Fixed spelling

Brain drain to Lemmy, probably.

Longest I've ever gotten was 1114 cycles, and I haven't won yet either. You don't win, you just do better each time...

I tell people it's the funnest game you'll ever hate. It's cathartic as hell when everything is running smoothly, but it just takes one little bump to throw everything off.

I've put in over 2,700 hours into Oxygen Not Included, so that's my vote.

Edit: Oh dip, I just looked it up and I'm slightly over 2,800 now :/

Better matching with dubbed versions of non-English shows. I have to manually search, since the "language" isn't English in the original, even though there's an English dub. Using Sonarr

Which one?! I remember eBaums World, Newgrounds, and whatever Digg was recommending, but I must have missed that one.

A few years ago, Skittles had this ad with a dancing elf looking dude. I used to love Skittles, dentist will back that up, but i just couldn't support that kinda nonsense.

#2 would be those Quiznos ads... I wouldn't eat there anyway, but the deep-fried hamster looking thing isn't going to convince me.

As an introvert, doing a "cart run" was my temporary reprieve from the horrors of retail.

Or a kilt and war paint. I may have a specific fetish...

Same, though i did delete my account, so I usually doom-scroll popular...

Bring TP to guest bathroom please!

Start?

And with streaming, you're not locked into a 42-47 minute long episode either, so are some episodes going to have more, or is there someone with a stop watch going "this seems like a good place for an ad break"?

The attorney for the plaintiff even said her entire demeanor changed when trump was out of the room. He wants loyalty, competence optional.

Mine was "Lone Pine Village Company"

Offer was through LinkedIn, and they sent me a "you've been selected" email. The interview process was going to be over email 🚩, through some guy that wasn't cc'd on the email 🚩, and had a first.last12345@Gmail.com style email address 🚩.

When i started looking into it, the job posting was removed 🚩, the company page no longer exists🚩, and the only links in the email were the email address to some Gmail address 🚩, no company website even through Duck Duck🚩.

Duck scammers, I just want a job, a ducking purpose other than "purchase product, consume content".

Other have said it, but there wasn't the freezing rain like last time.

That being said, it still didn't stop my brain from turning every single pop and groan of the house settling into "the pipes just burst, now panic!", so that sucked...

But roads are clear, the frost isn't sticking and so far *knocks on wood, i still have power.

That makes sense, i definitely got a "mattress store under new management" vibe, so you're probably on to something...

What pissed me off the most about that: they just closed the stores without any "going out of world sale"

That being said, when i last visited Fry's, about 6 months before they shut down, there was nothing worth buying. They were putting gamer chairs(tm) everywhere, because they had an overstock. Printer paper, ink cartridges, canned air dusters and gamer chairs on every isle.

Yup. 30 something processors in the website, 3 available in store. I love that microcenter has replaced Fry's (smaller stores that i don't get an anxiety attack going to) but the shipping is crap and you have to wait for parts to come back in stock.
