Finally glad other people are starting to realize StackOverflow is terrible.

I liked it for maybe six months, before the stalwart bastion against duplication and / or helpfulness decided every question had been answered.

Obviously embellishment for rhetorical purposes. Folks got tired of answering the same questions. I get that.

But it changed the feel of the site in a hurry for me, and I lost interest.

She: Come take a nap

Me: sounds good

My brain: (starts looping song on internal soundtrack) good track

My brain: You know, this song came out almost 25 — EDIT: 35 — years ago.

My brain: The guy they name-dropped has been dead for 16 years

My brain: He was seven years younger than you when Planet of The Apes came out

My brain: wonder how much time you have left

Me: Well, that’s enough napping

Both the dogs are sounding the alarm.

THERE’S SOMEBODY OUTSIDE! FIRE! FAMINE! FLOOD!

Yeah we’re having a garage sale. People lingering is good. Now STFU.

2016 I got an XBox 360, Kinect, and sizeable library of games off a local Buy Nothing group.

All the games went at the garage sale for $10 total today.

$10 profit.

When I crave a tuna melt I’m always thinking of a specific one made at this Capitol Hill sandwich place that shut down in 2005 for health department reasons or some such nonsense.

Somebody at the garage sale, looking through the programming books, for their son.

Me: “Is he new to programming or just Python?”

They: “Oh my son’s an engineer.”

Me: “Oh, well never—”

They: “He works at Microsoft.”

Me: “Hm.”

They: “He’s on one of their ML teams.”

Me: “Ok. Well clearly he doesn’t deserve need any of these.”

Garage sale stuff. Anybody need a box of random yarn and notebook of random (but very well-organized) knitting needles?
