Once upon a time there was a service that would automate dealing with some paperwork (traffic fines I think) via computer automation. That was shut down quick.
Oh but now AI? Sure now it's in.

IRL prompt to talk in therapy:
What is Louis (from Franco De Vita's eponymous song) up to now? Is that a good outcome? Is he happy or not? Why? What other opinions other people might have? Why spend so much time thinking about a fictional character's dreams?

Joining late the fist names joke trend:
One of my fists is "shel Shabbat" and the other "shel Hanukkah".
One of my fists is "shel Shabbat" and the other "shel Hanukkah".
The joke is that many Jews accidentally say "shel shabbat" on the first night or two of Hannukah while blessing the candles instead of "shel Hannukah" due to muscle memory. And then on the first Shabbat after Hannukah, they make the opposite mistake because of new muscle memory.

I have a new verse for the latke song
Take a cat and pat pat pat
Hug her till she’s flat flat flat
Don’t fry her in a pan with fat fat fat
Hanukkah kitties don’t like that
Hanukkah kitties Don’t Like That
Best sung to a cat while petting them.

One of my pet peeves would be solved by a Venn diagram but instead of 2 circles we have 1 shaped like Latin America, and another shaped like North America.
The intersection is shaped like Mexico.
(The peeve is that a lot of times Mexico is excluded from "North America", obviously 😉 )

Weird that a lot of the TV I watch is as background (so I mostly hear it rather than see+watch), yet I cannot listen to podcasts/audiobooks in the same kind of situations.
