My favorite #SuperBowl Sunday tradition is to wait until about 45 minutes after kickoff, then enjoy a nice, quiet dinner at literally any restaurant without a TV.

The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears so often, you got sick of people quoting Orwell.

One of the most useful defensive driving tips my mother gave me was to watch the wheels of other vehicles to anticipate where they're headed. It's the first thing to move before the rest of the body, and it can help you determine the driver's intent.

I'm not sure the hoi polloi understand what a big deal it is that Blink-182 had Bruce Buffer open their set at Shaky Knees. Dudes undoubtedly paid big for that. 😂

When i was your age, we'd spend 15 days downloading and compiling our kernels, uphill both ways, just to realize we forgot mouse support, and we LIKED IT!!!

I've spent most of the weekend diving into #emacs, poring over cheat sheets and documentation, not really feeling as though I've made any progress whatsoever... and then I realize my wireless mouse has gone to sleep because I haven't touched it in at least 10 minutes.
