Serious answer, Gino Bartali. He hid passport documents for Jews and messages to the Italian resistance inside the tubes of his bicycle when he was training for the Tour and Giro.

Absolutely no contest this should go to the tiny, ancient Italian woman I once saw rock up all four feet ten of herself to the Italian deli counter where she proceeded to elaborately curse out the young man working there (he had to lean over to see her) for not having any roasted eggplant.

Guglielmo Marconi

Without him there is no wireless anything

Give that ten seconds thought and realise how very, very different your life would be then. No radio. No television. No cell phone. No wireless internet. No wireless MOUSE. The world would be simply unrecognisable.

Discord autocorrected puns to pins.
Discord officially uncool, doesn't like groaners.

Also, I'm sick of text boxes changing actual words. Sure, guestimate something that's globbity gook, but this happens too much to not be a dictionary problem. It's (incorrectly may I add) guessing context.

you have a right to be angry

Drawing of Little My, a small girl in a red dress, sliding down a hill. She is drawn by Tove Jansson from the Moomin series. The text reads: "WHEN you're angry, then you're angry," thought Little My, peeling her potato with her teeth. "Sometimes you have to be angry. Every little creature has the right to get angry."

You know, maybe big business is right, we should go back into the office - I have shot significantly less nerf guns in the last few years.
Definitely a decrease in decreasing of my productivity.

I can't believe Rob Weiland is gone.

You might not have known him BUT: read a Forbes rpg article, enjoy Star Trek Adventures, love the Fate games scene, or watch/attend charity games at cons? That's just a small piece of his impact.

He was also wonderful human being who will be missed horribly.

Ah yes, tropical storm... Can you reschedule for three days later? Yup, after my meter read. That'd be swell.

I was frantically looking for my bagels in the microwave for nearly a minute it felt... until I remembered they were in the toaster.
You know, that place, where you toast bagels.

It's just one of those days.
