Hey! I can pretend to be dumb better than anyone. It’s gotten me this far.

I’m gonna love watching you guys try to out-nerd each other using words I don’t understand.

I’ll leave that to true Jedis like you and @scottearle.bsky.social

When I was back in Canada, I was astonished at home many pharmaceutical ads people saw. Just absolutely hammered into your brain that there’s a drug for everything.

Both you damn fools have good points! One thing I think we can agree on though: I am constantly shocked at how tech-illiterate people are who should not be, like 25-35 year olds. I’m amazed at how much they don’t understand and/or are not interested in learning.

Jesus Christ.

Super cool. Reminds me of the time my Grandma created the "Best Grandson in the World Prize" and - you'll be shocked - I won.

Thanks, but we're solidly in the Apple/Gmail team, I avoid any MS products as much as I can. If it wasn't for gaming, I wouldn't allow it haha

Yeah but guys of your skill level float so far above the regulars like myself that you’re immune to the headaches. At least, normal headaches. :)

Man, what a slog it was setting up my son's PC vs setting up a Mac. Endless permissions windows, telling countless MS programs to go away over and over again, pointless bloatware, annoying stickers...what a headache. Windows is an OS for masochists and little kids.

I understand some contests separating by gender, but what’s the rationale with chefs? Seems like a fairly even playing field.

My favorite. I used to stare at that through binoculars in awe when I was a kid.

Last Thursday was a holiday here in Thailand. I hate mid-week holidays, I'd rather just keep working.

Oh interesting, yeah, it’s gone upscale in recent years. We don’t fly, but drive from Bangkok and park the car on the mainland at the boat terminal.

All that budget and you didn’t spring for a 16 inch MBP? I’m disappointed in you, sir.

The ballroom looks like a whorehouse designed by Liberace.

One of my all-time favorites as a kid, huge nostalgia when I watch it. If I’m correct, it also had one of the first instances of morphing used in film, although it was a mix of CGI and practical. Fun fact, the kid actor was arrested for breaking and entering in Canada a few years ago!

Boo, Drew Struzan died. His art was all over my walls for my entire childhood.

I really enjoy Bluesky, even though the Thai-based peeps are super limited. I mostly use it to keep up on world news, but the more I read about the world news, the less I want to know about world news. Yikes.

Gonna keep this handy for when my son says he doesn't like school.

Those are going on the website.

What could go wrong.

Your office today is way better than mine.

💯 I love sleeping, but I hate going to bed.

That’s awesome! Bonus points if you find the same spot your grandpa is at on google street view.

Please god all I want is for it to remember where I left off.

Hope you’re right but I don’t see anyone having the balls to make it happen.

If God is all powerful, can he create a rock so big that he himself could not lift? Classic George Carlin line.

We always prefer to drive on our own. Some hotels will pick you up on a speed boat on the mainland and drop you off right in front of the property.
