Oklahoma can be a good place to live, but these people keep making this place a total shithole.

Words like comeuppance and conniption? Bunghole? Squeegee? Hoedown? Poppycock?

English has words I'm sure English speakers find funny/ridiculous.

Living in tornado alley, having a TV antenna and a weather radio is almost a requirement. If the Internet gets knocked out, OTA still works. Also, my Internet is shit so I wouldn't rely on it if a tornado is bearing down on my location, but I do also love watching 9½ hours of nonstop tornado coverage when nasty storms might come my way.

Outside of that, I know to tune in at about :15 past the hour during newscasts to catch the weather report, which gets uploaded to their website later anyway. If the football game is on, I might catch that if I care to watch. I don't really watch OTA otherwise.

But I'm 32 lol

German: "There are like...a lot of different ways to say 'the' based on case and gender and you'd better believe most answers you might come up with as a non-native speaker are wrong."

English: "THE is THE!"

Seriously, English has its flaws, but the simplification of article adjectives is one area where it shines.

I used to cringe every time I saw an itasha car. But hey, not my car. If it makes them happy and it's not disproportionately negatively affecting others' safety, then it's actually kinda sick.

I couldn't do it myself. I also haven't been into anime for several years, but I do love me a JDM neoclassic.

I stared at the bottom right for a solid 30 minutes before my wife peeked over my shoulder and said something really smart. That one was a doozy

Don't know why the downvotes. You are absolutely correct.

My fridge doesn't even have a screen, but it has wifi. Wifi!! You do one thing. You are a box designed to keep my food cold. I set the temperature, and I forget that exists.

Anyway, we bought it when we bought our house. The previous owner offered to include all the appliances in the contract so it was nice to not have to buy any appliances. But that refrigerator stays OFF my network.

Don't think I did too bad for my first try. Maybe I got lucky today.

I own a '97 Honda. The last owner had LEDs in it. The lenses weren't designed for LEDs, they were designed for halogens. So one of the first things I did was revert the headlights to halogen bulbs. And they work perfectly fine. I drive in a suburb so the streets are already fairly well lit. I don't need to cast a beam 5 miles out to see where I'm going.

Also, it's that soft yellowish white light. Not that harsh daylight bluish light everyone and their mom is obsessed with. I don't get it. Anyway, the best thing you can do in 99 times of 100 is to consider what equipment you have and stick to OEM spec.

My monitors are over a decade old and are still perfectly fine. I'll upgrade to 1440p/144 Hz when I start seeing dead pixels or some other failure.

They have DVI ports and all my stuff is too new for DVI so I'm on the adapter diet lol

When I was in the sixth grade, I went to a school that required you to have a badge. I had bad untreated ADHD (pretty sure I still do, just saw a psychologist about it about a week ago) and so it was normal for me to lose or forget my badge. If you didn't have your badge, you had to get a temporary from the front office, and if you showed up to lunch with one, you got one cold uncrustable for lunch. That's it. Everyone else was served a full hot lunch.

So I have bad memories of being lunch shamed centered around these things. Besides, I love my extra crunchy Jif.

Drawings of Dogs

The artist has taken some liberties as to what constitutes a drawing of a dog.

As a BeamNG.drive player: absolutely I would.

I fear not the man who has sucked 10,000 cocks once, but I fear the man who has sucked one cock 10,000 times.

My cat just has to be present in the room. The dog don't give two squirts of piss about that food until the cat is in the room, at which point the food is suddenly at extreme risk.

In the year and some change we've had our dog, the cat has never gone within five feet of the his food bowl.

I have to be in office one day a week. Mondays. Just get it over with. Sometimes, I have nothing to do. I piddle. I listen to music on my phone. I check the weather 47 times. I read the news.

Those days suck.

Italian is her favorite. I managed to get a lunch reservation the day before we leave. There unfortunately weren't any dinner reservations available until October. Thanks for the tip!
