THEN WHY ARE WOMEN ALWAYS DOING THEIR MAKEUP WHILE DRIVING????

John Bercow, the Speaker of the House of Commons, told an MP: "I couldn't give a flying flamingo what your view is." It was just the accent and inflection, but it sounded like a Monty Python sketch.

how is it possible in this day and age that they make monitors without mounting holes in the back

just bought a dual monitor stand for my 'studio' and i went to install it and neither of the monitors have them

it's 4:4:4 chroma 6 series which i heard make very good 4k monitors. i heard good reviews online, but no one personally who has used one. it's walmart and will be an easy return if it's not up to par, but i just hate returning stuff, and that's why i haven't gotten it.

Can't imagine how much more awful and insane 9/11 would have been if the fourth plane hit the White House.

I hope that in my lifetime we can transition from the reverence to a remembrance.

I’m visiting my buddy in bandelier national monument. he lives in an old fire tower with absolutely nobody around. his back yard is a view of the main canyon and the mountains and it’s eerily quiet. i’m not sure i’ll ever be in a more peaceful spot.

there's a 5 house cul-de-sac off the bottom of my street. its about 450 feet from the start of the street to the farthest house (h/t google maps). Saw a parent waiting with their kid in their car yesterday for the school bus. beautiful weather, not cold, not hot, clear skies.

now with the possible exception of one of them having a bad wheel, why do you start your car and drive 300-400 feet instead of walking?

Maybe they were going straight to work or somewhere right after their kid got picked up?

NOPE

timing was right yesterday as I was going past just after the kid got on the bus
threw the car in reverse and went back up the cul-de-sac
AND DON'T EVEN TRY TO SAY THEY FORGOT THEIR LAPTOP OR SOMETHING

He did say he was leaving in his last post, but I figured he just meant leaving the thread.
