US. Fluent in English but I can speak enough spanish to do most everyday things. I am learning Japanese, and while I can read and understand about half of it, I can’t pronounce shit and haven’t bothered practicing since I just want to read it.

Not necessarily. What if you’re really good at Photoshop?

I want this cross over to exist. 😬

That wasn’t Michele in The Avengers? I had to look up Tessa just to compare and yeah; they look almost identical.

Similarly, when Zombieland first came out, I thought Jessie was Micheal Cera. They look similar enough and basically are both cast as the shy, nerdy kid.

I haven’t had any friends that are actually in my life since 2009.

I’d prefer memory safety, any kind of overflow sounds bad for production.

That’s what the bucket is for.

Back in the day, every single video game used to have a little note on the box, in the manual or even on screen when starting it up that you should stop playing every 15 to 20 minutes to walk around and look at something other than a screen.

Haven’t seen that warning in multiple decades now. And I doubt it was ever shown on office software.

Momentum. The reason you don’t fly the fuck off to who knows where when you jump, is because you’re also moving at the same speed the Earth is.

12 to 14 hours, or so. That’s how I found out about hypoglycemia. Played paintball all day, started feeling sick and was throwing up and passing out walking home, someone called an ambulance and after they checked me out they said I just needed to eat. 🤣

I signed up for Twitter in 2006 to see what it was all about before it was super popular. Thought it was stupid then just because of the character limit, and haven’t touched it since.

Guess I’m a dunce because of shit that started happening a whole decade later. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Brink was cool, if a bit flawed. It could have become better if they had given it more of a chance.

Shattered Horizon was awesome at first, but eventually the game changed entirely and at some point an update just broke the game for hella people (myself included) so we couldn’t even play on a local server with bots and it was never fixed. :/

I got some cheap shit in a bundle that actually meets the spec requirements I wanted and they are sturdy as fuck too. They don’t have a brand name on them, and came without any packaging. They’ve been better than any other USB-C cables I’ve ever owned. I wish I knew who made them so I could get more if I ever needed. 😮‍💨

I’ve never had any real power.

If you mean electricity: 3 days. Was having to buy bags of ice to keep my fridge cold because it was cheaper than having to replace all the food that would have spoiled if I hadn’t. At least it was in a time where smartphones existed and I can charge it from my car, otherwise I would have been bored as fuck.

I’m an older millennial and even I figured out what they meant by “rawdogging” because people my age have been using it the same way since forever ago, too. It can be anything that involves messing around with something gross without adequate protection/a barrier between it and you. It envokes the same idea as fucking without a condom.

Installed Internet for this dude who was saying all kinds of crazy shit. The craziest was that he was in a famous rock band during the 80’s and the government forced them to break up because their lyrics were female-positive and also included “top secret” information about the Star Wars program, which his own dad apparently worked on (along with how they actually have nukes and lasers in space to defend against the aliens).

When I finally was done with the job, I looked up the band he said he was in. No such band ever existed. The closest thing I could find to the name he gave me (which I’ve forgotten now) was some German techno band that was only formed like 3 years before I had looked it up. The least he could have done was actually use an actual band name that existed in the 80’s. lol

I knew a Jewish guy that loved bacon and pork chops in high school.

This game actually exists, except that it’s “Watch Grass Grow Simulator” instead of paint drying.

And it’s in VR!

There’s also that “Banana” game that keeps getting up on the top 10 most played games of steam. It’s not actually a game; it’s a money generation scheme exploiting the trading card drop system and marketplace.

Do the same thing, but on a device that allows blocking ads entirely. From behind a proxy or VPN, so they can’t even get accurate location data from your IP.

I’m learning Japanese right now myself, and I don’t know if it’s just something you learn or if it’s something native speakers just get used to, because I have a hard time telling some kanji apart when the font is too small. It’s mostly just an issue with online resources tho.
