  • Nice.

    I just bought a set of weird dice, and they're a bit of a disappointment. Someone made them by carving the right number of facets off a sphere at random and numbering them. They couldn't possibly roll fairly. Not what I expected from the photos.

  • Microwave spray cans.

  • Batman and Robin appeared in an episode of Scooby Doo. The episode is considered canonical, meaning the Scooby Doo universe has a rich history of masked criminals, crime fighters and significantly, real monsters.

    There's an unreleased Toho movie where Batman fights Godzilla, too!

  • I always thought I'd make a better uncle than a father. Time has proven me right.

  • One of my friends supported himself by playing poker while he was studying. He's a cool guy.

  • Because when eating a meal she has a fork in her hand and will stab me with it.

  • Came here to mention that. They reinvented agriculture and democratic government.

  • Me, probably. I go in thinking "ooh, bit dark in here" and leave thinking "SANDWICH SANDWICH SANDWICH".

  • You’re in a desert walking along in the sand when all of a sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise, it’s crawling toward you. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that?

  • I posted that the new Twitter logo looked like a broken image icon.

    That was a weird week. Every post I had ever made, going back to the day I registered my account, got dozens of downvotes. I figure someone with dozens of accounts used me as a test case for one-man-brigading.

  • Reaching the end of the working day in my dreams.

    😟

  • Me too, but there's also the inevitable silent "you talked over the top of me to the point where I had to do it back to you just to participate in the conversation! Look what you've done!"

  • I don't think many of us are that subtle. Certainly not me.

  • Larry Niven, sci-fi writer. He wrote about an alien species whose females were only as intelligent as animals. Then, in a different story, a second species. Then a third. By that stage I didn't think it was entirely about the worldbuilding anymore.

  • I try to remember the little things I like about going to work. Drinking the good coffee I keep there. Chatting with people in the office. Driving home through the summer weather at the end of the day.

  • Read a history book.

  • I remember a game where you played as R2-D2 and the goal was to beat as many people with a hammer as you could before the timer ran out. :)

  • Zardoz. Say what you will about Sean Connery running around in a bright red romper, it was original.

  • Lots of people have written fan-fiction worse than that!
