This is an “again” thing, right?

Nooooooo…

I mean, there was a time when I tripped coming down the stairs from my office and dropped my iPad on the paving bricks… but that’s totally different!

Plus, this time I have AppleCare+

So… yeah…

bananacasts replied to your post: It’s 72ºF outside!!

Held in a lot of farts during the wedding and reception, huh?

Having met us, do we strike you as people who hold in a lot of farts?

thefount replied to your post: The Wife watches Mad Men s01e01 for the first time

“I don’t like any of these people.” That also was my reaction to the show and sums up why I didn’t watch past season one.

I get that, but to me I think they are some of the most interesting characters on TV because most of them are neither as good or as bad as they initially seem*, and we get to see them struggle between the times of doing the right thing and doing the thing they want to do that isn’t the right thing.

* Well, with a few exceptions, obviously.

My fave ep for series 2 is episode 3, but believe me, you’re gonna love the first episode for… reasons. :)

It’s ok, you can say the word “breasts” on the Internet now.

(I would have also accepted “boobies.”)

Also legs. And eyes. And cheekbones. And… well, you get the point.

fuiru replied to your photo: You might have to be a nerd to properly enjoy this…

My favourite text adventure was one where you type “Fart” and it went “A cloud of noxious fumes rise up. You cannot breathe. You are dead.”

Pavorite Fart!

(Did you notice how I started and ended with farts? That’s a “callback,” folks. Did I mention I have a degree in English from an accredited institution of higher learning? Did I also mention that auto-correct fixed my misspelling of “accredited” (twice now)?)

Yes. You can always leave the baby on somebody’s doorstep, but you own those missing apostrophes FOREVER.

Precisely… that shit stays on your permanent record…

thefount replied to your photo: By the weekend the faux-pregnancy scare will be…

I guess you found what to give her as an anniversary present.

A dictionary?

thunderdolt replied to your photo: By the weekend the faux-pregnancy scare will be…

That is almost as bad as using misspelling instead of misspelled.

I have no idea what you mean and I definitely did not go back and fix that typo which never existed.

ronbailey replied to your photo: Just a reminder: if you actually do need Wikipedia…

All you need to do on a Windows machine is disable javascripting. SORRY ABOUT THAT EXTRA GRAND YOU SPENT ON YOUR HARDWARE ;)

★

That reminds me about the article I wrote explaining how to disable/enable JavaScript in Safari with a single keystroke (well, technically two keys, such as cmd+J, or whatever key you choose).

I’m sure you can do that on your nice little Best Buy pick of the week you’ve got there ;-)

As I said to my mother: “Yes, I spent twice what you spent on a laptop, and I have loved it since the day I bought it and it will probably last until I decide that I want to upgrade. You spent $500 on a computer that you’ve hated since day 1, which has always been too slow and never worked the way you wanted. And you claim that I wasted money ;-?”

thefount replied to your photo: Just a reminder: if you actually do need Wikipedia…

Or, you know, add an “m.” before wikipedia, because the mobile version isn’t blacked out.

Also good news.

thefount replied to your post: Just about this time, 16 years ago…

Congratulations! Do we all get to say “gross” now?

See below

jezebelthegreat replied to your post: Just about this time, 16 years ago…

In the words of one wily pigeon: “Gross.”

Actual (paraphrased) conversation the other day:

Her: “I love you.”

Me: “Don’t be gross.”

mrsbadcrumble replied to your photo: Beagle! What are you doing there? You were not…

THERE IS A LAMPSHADE ON YOUR BED.

I took the lampshade off when I was fixing the vacuum cleaner for Maximum Light Potential. I didn’t mention that part because it was already WTL;DR (Waaaay Too Long; Didn’t Read). It hadn’t been put back on because I had to fixed the end-table/lamp first, which I only did last night after I took the picture.

(And yes, I plan on alluding to the fact that I fixed the vacuum cleaner every day for the foreseeable future. I believe I mentioned that I AM NOT HANDY.)

Would you like to hear about how I fixed the end-table/lamp combination?

“Luke, draw me like one of your French girls.”

Actual, literal spittake.

(Of course it should have been “Anakin” not “Luke,” but nevertheless…)

At least she didn’t say “How wude!” or anything starting with “meesa.”

Ugh. True. Then I might really have had to think about our future together.

luckyshirt replied to your photo: ORLY?

That’s and my twitter background are the only place it survives. Tumblr avatars in notes and stuff are really small, so it’s good for that and why am I explaining this. Your face has a face.

I only hurt the ones I love.

thefount replied to your quote: Why is your penis always dirty?

Seeing the “probably” tag on these makes me laugh every time. Every time. I’m a simple man.

Me too.

Wait, you’re saying you were kind of a jerk, but you were right about it? If only someone could come up with a clever term that would apply here.

D’OH.

I walked right into that one. Never even saw it coming.

Dear WifeOfTJ: Feel free to use this one against me

thefount replied to your post: 2011-05-19

I believe you got a different reaction than the doctor because he had medical basis for his opinion, whereas coming from you without that basis it could easily be taken as “You’re annoying. Stop coughing.” (Not that it’s what you actually meant.)

Yeah, actually that’s totally what I meant.

The Doc sounded much nicer when he said it. Then again, he hasn’t listened to it for the past 8 months, or however long it’s been.

smartasshat replied to your post: 2011-05-19

Wait… I’m unclear on who was right? Can you go over it again?

That would be me.

(Someone should really make a Venn Diagram of it, for the visual learners.)

Wow, you’ve duplicated capacity while at the same time eradicating any chance of paper roll over/under orientation conflicts. Good god man, you’re a genius.

I didn’t want to say it, but since you said it, well, who am I to argue?

Now she’s going to say you don’t know how to put up a wallpaper border.

I hate you soooooo much.
