So weird. I’ve never heard of Unknown Mortal Orchestra but I went to check them out on Youtube and I found a link to their NPR Tiny Desk Concert - which Youtube is showing me as already having listened to.
Outback restaurants put it best: “no rules, just Right”.
I guess with magic bullets it doesn’t matter if the taper on the case is the wrong way.
I only recently learned that Budapest was originally two separate cities on opposite sides of a river named Buda and Pest.
There was a movie called Inside Job or Inside Man or something like that, where the lead organizes a bank robbery where he ends up secreting himself in a hidden room inside the bank itself, and then emerging with the cash a week later and strolling out. It would be pretty hilarious if this guy hid himself in Manhattan in similar fashion and then emerged into this lookalike contest to make his escape.
Cleveland-Akron-Canton metropolitan statistical area is 3.7 million, Columbus metro stat area is 2.1 million. Cleveland proper is only 362K while Columbus proper is 913K. Direct size comparisons of “cities” almost always are dependent upon arbitrary border definitions.
Lennsies II and Squigmose I.
The modern skirt-like kilt only dates to the 1700s, and the association of particular patterns with clans only dates to the 1800s. Braveheart was BULLSHIT. And they didn’t paint themselves blue, either - that was the Picts.
Santa Claus
Even Santa Claus coming down the chimney to give presents to children got its real start with St. Nicholas sneaking into people’s houses in Constantinople to leave bags of gold so the parents wouldn’t have to sell their children into slavery.
As a Scot, there’s nothing more disappointing than finding out about the history of kilts.
Term limits are just people from the past telling you who you can vote for today.
I was having lunch once with a coworker at Olive Garden and he said that the Olive Garden chain of restaurants consumes 20% of the world’s black olive crop. I don’t know what made him think that was even remotely possible.
I watched a documentary at a film festival a few years ago about a Vietnam vet, who was there for the premiere and took questions from the audience afterwards. The vet mentioned how much he hated hearing “thank you for your service” all the time. Another Vietnam vet stood up and asked him a question, and the first vet started off his answer with “thank you for your service”.
The crunch is from your teeth breaking around the cavities.
The billionaires and corporations run the state and the media. Not laughing my ass off.
The amazing thing is not people forgetting about Trump’s shaving nick, it’s them forgetting about the dude who was actually killed.
As a programmer who used to fix accessibility problems with iOS apps, I’d like to say that one good thing about apps vs. websites is that apps are generally much better than websites for people with vision problems. But they aren’t! At least the ones I was fixing sure weren’t.
Nothing in modern software design blows my mind more than the tendency to replace line-wrapping with truncation and ellipses. It’s like designers couldn’t get to sleep at night if there were any possibility of their layouts being variable height.
