True Blue Geekery

One, two, three, four, and even five, and even six.

(guy who doesn't really know how software updates work) i hope they keep the keyboard letters in the same order. i was just getting used to them

When you say "Shakespearean" you mean everybody dies at the end. When I say "Shakespearean" I mean interrupting the lead-in to the climactic scene to burn five solid minutes doing a 4/10 bit where two characters argue about the definition of a word.

it's a 10/10 bit in my heart

this is an absolutely horrible post that makes no sense but last night i told my roommate that trying to take the lord of the rings, the silmarillion, and the hobbit and explain the tonal and narrative difference and what it all means as a series is like if you only had three sources about what happens in england (a made up place, as we all know) and they were geoffrey of monmouth’s ‘the history of the kings of britain’, modern doctor who, and a singular episode of peppa pig. and you’re out here trying to force these to be part of a cohesive narrative

You know on the rare occasion that I do get a job interview the person interviewing me usually tells me that I interviewed really well in comparison to other people they’ve interviewed and that they like my answers to interview questions and yet they never hire me so tbh I’m starting to wonder what these people are looking for exactly

One time I was interviewed by I think about fourteen different people in one interview and they seemed to like me. Didn’t get the job. Still don’t know why that many different people needed to interview me.

No wait I just remembered it was about twenty people because it was for a university entry level admin position at their business school for a specific department and first they had all fourteen people in that major’s office interview me and then the six people in charge of the business school interviewed me.

what if instead of paying companies to delete our info off of databases periodically we like. idk. passed a law that said companies couldnt do that anymore. and set up some kind of task force to disband all the companies that do that. thatd be cool

ridiculous! Next you'll be suggesting the IRS tell you how much you owe, rather than making you guess or hire a company

biggest suspension of disbelief in TV and movies is when the narrative tells you that a character is plain/ugly/unattractive but theyre all cast with hollywood actors in perfect hollywood makeup so the actual gap between them and the 'hot' characters is a spot the difference game.

Even better is when whatever's been done to make them "ugly" is, in fact, extremely attractive. Oh no, not cute boxy glasses and neatly done hair! How hideous!

all the rights that come with marriage you should be able to have without marriage btw. you should be able to designate a person who can visit you in the hospital regardless of your relationship to that person.

ive never wanted to send a death threat over a game before

Okay that was odd

I get this is super wholesome and everything, but a little color grading would turn this into an unholy abomination of flesh wrought in the Deep Forges by carnomages long dead

I do wish we could make it a little more socially acceptable to wander the streets at night weeping inconsolably I feel like that would have a great catharsis factor for a lot of people

don't let outdated social norms prevent you from becoming the heartbroken victorian of your dreams
