My weakness has always been potato chips. And no, I cannot eat just one.

Question of the Day: What's your favorite snack food?

Me: "My FTP login isn't working anymore."

IT Support: "We never enabled FTP access on that server."

Me: "I've been using FTP to update that site for the past five years."

IT Support: "We never enabled FTP access on that server."

Me: "Here's a screencap of my FTP settings and log of past usage."

IT Support: (long pause) "Oh, *that* server."

Note to all IT people: not everyone you deal with is clueless. Some of us, in fact, know as much (if not more) about IT than you do.

Apparently ankle socks are no longer "in", at least according to the Gen Z kids. Which doesn't bother me, as I still like rocking the black socks and sandals look. That's still cool, right?

@ArcturusSaDiablo My boss asked me a few weeks ago if I was still okay with working from home. I assured her that I was fine with it. As in, "If I never have to wear shoes again, I'll be just fine. Also, pants are overrated." ๐Ÿ˜

I used to like to get glue on my fingers so I could peel it off when it dried. I dunno why I brought that up, but I know Iโ€™m not alone here.

Combing my last two posts, here's Spider-Man shopping for furniture at an IKEA. Because AI is both fun and very weird.

I never watched the Andrew Garfield Spider-Man movies, but I noticed they were on Netflix so I decided to check them out. The first one was pretty good. Starting the second one know.

And honesty compels me to admit I have never once been to an Ikea.

I don't like mazes.

Iโ€™m somewhat convinced that most Ikea employees are customers who didnโ€™t know how to get out and just gave up.

@Oma_Trisha You don't already have one? Slacker. ๐Ÿ˜‰

If a car alarm blares for more than 9 seconds without a response, it should be perfectly legal to set the car on fire.

Things that confuse me: Why do the signs that say "Slow Children" have a picture of a running child?

Up at 4:30, on TV starting at 5:30. These type of work hours are why coffee was invented.


And now a public service announcement on behalf of all dogs:

My wife.

And yes, my anniversary is coming up next week. Why do you ask? ๐Ÿ˜
