If we say that the accepted pronunciation of “X” is “ex” then we run into an even bigger problem than Prince’s logo.

“Ex” User says… Is this a former user of the website or current?

A user on the website “ex” is too long winded and sounds like I’m saying a hypothetical.

Users on “ex” - although shorter, X is a street name for ecstacy and user is sometimes used as shorthand for drug user (e.g. User and abuser) so why should we be listening to a cracked out party kid?

The golden ticket is “formerly Twitter” because we actually know what the fuck that one is.

I’m willing to bet there’s at least one X user on X right now.

How long was Prince “The Artist Formerly Known as Prince”?

Yeah, the rest of his life.

Twitter probably will have the same laid upon it.

I mean, I believe in you. You technically CAN do something about that. It will probably break in the process though.

Look at it this way, BMI is a cross section of weight and height. I was considered “overweight” for ages because I just had tree trunk thighs from hiking and weightlifting. Like, less than 16% body fat but told I’m ‘overweight’ every time I got weighed.

The ruler was fucking wrong.

Nowadays, I’m much more of a fat fuck so the ruler is right now but only just so… I’m still under 25% when using hydrostatic!

The whole road while taking a dash pic at 70mph.

BMW drivers have the same opinions about whatever you’re driving too… Even other Beemers. At least the second part.

You throwing babies away?

You’re just supposed to say the two in sequence.

1. Slap it
2. That’s not going anywhere
3. As you walk away, say “ain’t going nowhere”
4. Drive away and watch as you sand blast everything in your rear view

I heard that more commonly referring to Micro USB but, yeah, most people used to ask what phone you have, not what cable.

I’m still using a 1070ti and hitting stable 60fps with newer games. Medium to low settings, usually but most slow down comes from poor optimization since I’m running a 12th Gen and regularly see medium usage on both GPU and CPU.

Called once to ask, they said go to urgent care.

Then billed me for a telehealth visit and also the Urgent Care billed me too.

SNL is very much a combination of both humor from two years ago and next years mainstream. So many of the skits are built in the gap of “what have I seen lately that’s funny so I can quickly write” and “this will be twice as hilarious in a few years.”

So, SNL is usually pretty meh because you either like current humor and the ‘future’ stuff doesn’t hit or you don’t like current humor and that doesn’t hit.

Didn’t have precision munitions back then. Didn’t have drones that can monitor the battlefield from across the globe and provide real-time video feeds.

Besides, in this case, Israel is playing Germany’s role.

Someone has never seen Snatch, have they?

I like to dress up. Reminds me to be a portion of myself. I’m not me, I’m work me.

I hate to dress up. The same me who’s trusted with people’s lives is the same me who sits around in shorts and flip flops. Why lie to everyone I meet?

I like to dress up. It’s a socially acceptable mask to wear.

The ludicrousness is the point. “Capture a creature in a ball”… How close is that to Red Dead’s lasso? Could Nintendo patent capturing a creature with a rope? Does anyone hold that patent yet? No, it would be silly to try to patent something like that - yet at one point I’m certain it was someone’s “technique” while everyone else was jumping on the horses back like Breath of the Wild.

Imagine if you had a hammer and decided to use it to hit a nail and then someone came along and said “I see you’re using my method to build a house! Pay up!”

Well, you can’t patent something like that!

Imagine you open up a game engine, any engine, and decide you need to point to an objective so you decide to use an arrow. A game company says “You’re using our method to identify objectives! Pay up!” and that one is a unique mechanic?

How long has humanity been using arrows to point to things? How can you patent it just because it’s a digital arrow?

I dunno if I could manage to spend $30 just to be reminded of something that’ll be forgotten by December…

Are you sure you’re not a Sony Psyop to get us all to buy Concord merch to help recoup the loss?

This was a while back, so not the last time but probably one of my biggest wtfs.

Anyway, In Iraq, in a tower surrounded by sandbag and hesco walls. The night guard shifts kept pissing in bottles and tossing it over the walls instead of just pissing anywhere else or just throwing the piss bottles in the trash so at the change over the Sergeant of the Guard said that we had to make the guys getting relieved stand by because they’re gonna have to go clean all that up. Mind you this is outside of the wire in Iraq - not that it’s particularly dangerous but we were still getting bombed nightly. Anyway, I rock up to the tower and let them know to standby and the SOG rolls up behind me and tells them what’s up.

I kid you not, this dude looks at him and says “Can we at least downgrade our gear?” You could probably hear my laughter across the whole FOB. He just said “Can I take off my vest and helmet before I head out of the wire?”

I shouted down “I can cover you but that won’t stop any rounds that come your way,” and the SOG just said “What? No, fuck, are you kidding?”

Then I baked in the 100+°F sun while I watched adults pick up piss bottles in the desert.

Technically the triangle just refers to ‘relationships’ and not ‘romantic relationships’ so two male friends and one female love interest works as a triangle but one woman with two male strangers doesn’t with because that’s just a V.
