Well, see, there’s your problem <poke, poke>

I only care if I can hear and I consider myself fairly normal. In the car, 9 is usually where I can hear my podcasts over the road noise. 8 and I miss words. 10, and it eventually gets unpleasant. On the TV, I don’t know: I run all the audio through a tuner and it’s hard to see the numbers from the couch. Besides, I think it measures in dB, which I don’t understand. For most shows, I think it’s somewhere in the -30s.

We get eye drops by mail from a local specialty vet pharmacy. For our first few deliveries, the mailer contained one plastic bag with a prescription bottle and a second baggie with two green mints. Or rather, I assume they were mints. They were green like mints, but the bag wasn’t labeled. I don’t think they were individually wrapped, but I don’t exactly remember. I’m sure they were thank you mints, but I also couldn’t quite bring myself to eat an unlabeled item from a lab. They don’t do it anymore, and that makes me kind of sad.

It’s AI. The author/artist specifies on his page.

In the 80s (maybe 90s?), NYC was the cliche.

You can be both credentialed and a kook, can’t you? I remember him from his regular guest appearances on Art Bell’s radio show.

Also, I liked the part where it asks you consider whether you’d borrowed the range. Who does that?

“Hey, neighbor, do you have a gas range, I could borrow?”

“Sure, Bud, it’s there in the garage. Just put it back when you’re done.”

“Thanks a load! Say, it’s burning green. Did you put copper in the burners?”

“Yes, I did. Just for you! Breath deeply.”

Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving guy.

Wow. Almost belongs in !aneurysmposting@sopuli.xyz

I don’t play chess and I also had trouble. It’s a long castle. Ok. And it walks? What?

I vaguely remember hearing about an artist who, I think this was about 15 years, scavenged a bunch of the oldest camera phones they could find (i.e., flip and candy bar phones) and, because no one ever resets their electronics, pulled all the photos they held. I didn’t actually see how they displayed the pics (giant collage? coffee table book?), but I thought it sounded interesting from historical perspective. I’ll bet it’s a lot like nowadays except for the quantity since those phones predated constant cloud-connections. That is to say, mostly kids, SOs, and cats.

And yet, when the resident with the highest rate of correctly identifying impostors insists that the head psychiatrist is a reptoid, he is pooh-poohed.

There’s also a difference between not knowing the difference and always getting them mixed up. The diagram doesn’t help with the stated problem. Also, it doesn’t address the question.

As another example, the Cuyahoga River famously caught fire in 1969. That isn’t technically the 70s, but I wouldn’t have gone near it anytime during that decade.

Got it. The Easter Bunny is an immigrant, over 1,500 years old, and has at least one ovipositor. Let me restate the remaining question: Why does it lay/bring Celtic fertility symbols?? I learn so much here.

Not too mention the implication that lemurs know what malaria is. What else have these scientists been hiding from us???
