  • I have some time to kill before having to run some errands. I’ve started with the first one and it’s pretty fun!

    Said “fuck yeah” a couple times to myself when I got the answer right. I’ve not used SQL before but I’ve got a decent grasp (as in I get the basics) on programming languages so it’s somewhat intuitive to me

    Thanks for the links!! I look forward to continuing when I get back

    I went to my family Christmas with my then-partner. I got a Grinch onesie from my family

    We then attended my partner’s family Christmas where basically the entire living room was stuffed with presents for the kids (my partner and their siblings). My then-partner complained about how the siblings all got more $$ worth of presents. I pointed out that I got a pair of pjs for Christmas. The reply: “it’s not about the dollar amount, it’s just they got more than me” (paraphrased)

    I hated that present. A fucking onesie? It was such a disappointing present, and for a long time I used it as an example for questions just like this

    I kept it and wore it. Eventually I lost the bitterness and started to cherish it even. Which is why I still wear it regularly this time of year! It’s quite warm… plus, it has pockets!

    Grinch tax:





  • I can shop at Costco for my family of two. There are a lot of bulk items that don’t make sense for me to buy, but non-perishables and especially any electronics or big (for me) money items I try to buy from them

    I just say that because I hear a lot of people hesitant to shop there with the reason they won’t be able to finish everything before it goes bad. But they sell a lot of household items and the lifetime guarantee is worth the membership cost by itself

    Also if you’re an executive member you can add someone else for free! They don’t even have to be in your household. I added a friend in need so they could get some necessities





  • My friends have the same mop as me. My mind was blown when she unscrewed the cap at the end, pulled the mop head off, and threw it in the washer versus how I’d been painstakingly washing in the bathtub and feeling like an idiot because no matter how hard I wrung it out I couldn’t get it to dry

    My world was changed that day as well
