I climb hand over hand closing my eyes

Too scared to look down I climb hand over hand

Putting distance between I and I and the ground

I get to the top I stand on the edge

I look to the sky and say all my prayers

What could be better than a swan dive into the asphalt?

I don’t know

Nothing can be better than a swan dive into the asphalt

I want to see you naked.

😳

Not in a sexual way, but you’ve got me curious now.

🤣

I’ve got to say, I was not expecting this reply.

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Thesaurus:penis

Prior to the adoption of the Latin word in English, the penis was referred to as a “yard”.

No wonder men love working in the yard. It’s just an extension of playing with their penis.

Yes. Nobody wants to see me naked. I don’t even want to see me naked.

I did. It was in the article I linked above.

Get out of my sunlight.

And my fav…

If I were not Diogenes, I would also wish to be Diogenes.

Congratulations! You have officially entered the mentality of Middle-Age™. Here’s your complimentary fanny pack and Ben-Gay cream for those inexplicable injuries.

Not that I’m suggesting that I’m smart, but I really felt this comment to my core. I feel like people that know me may look at me like I’m a “Dwight Friend”, and I’ve long realized this (though never have I articulated it quite as well as you). It’s a real confidence killer when you realize this is how you’re viewed. But yes, if someone called needing help, I would be there in a heartbeat.

Not intentionally? But the more I read about this guy, the more I like his style. He sounds a little like the character House in his brutal honesty and disdain for etiquette, and potentially autistic.

This has to be my favorite ideal though:

Everyone, he claimed, was trapped in this make-believe world which they insisted was reality and, because of this, people were living in a kind of dream state. Source

I swear I’ve heard this idea elsewhere and more recently. Hmm. 🤔 I can’t quite put my finger on it though. But I am a little hungry for a cookie now.

Edit: I love this man.

When asked what talent he had he replied, “That of governing men” and then demanded to be sold to Xeniades saying, “Sell me to that man; for he wants a master.” Even though he was a slave at this point, and in no position to demand anything, he believed so completely in himself that others felt compelled to listen to him and do what he said.

And they did. And Xeniades loved him. In fact, the whole damn city loved him. That man was the very epitome of rizz.

That’s because you’re doing it wrong. First, take off all your clothes. Bonus points if you’re in public. Then lie down flat on your stomach side. If necessary, start thrusting your hips up and down to help get contact with the ground. Bonus points if you do dirty talk while doing this, in public, in front of people.

At this point, I’m surprised anybody (including myself) still buys/uses Google services, given how risky it is that you’ll become dependent on them and then they kill off the product(s). I really need to get off my ass and switch mail providers.

Not quite. Turns out Van Winkle bought the rights to the song, and shares in the royalties with Queen, to avoid going to court.

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

It’s free to install, but can be costly to support. Both on the sysadmin side, as well as from the vendor (ie RHEL) side. This is not to suggest that Windows is necessarily less expensive; it vary well may be the choice the CTO made based on their professional experience or what the market in the area of HQ had more Windows professionals available to hire.

Damn. I was hoping you would t say that. As a dad myself, I could t think of know a worse thing to happen — especially since one of my greatest fears is to die via drowning or suffocation. That breaks my heart for that family.

Hey now! You can’t just leave it like that. Was the kid ok?

Couldn’t be any worse than 6-Headed Shark Attack

Damn and I thought you were joking.

Tabs are considered white space. A white space is technically any character that is not visible. That covers things like spaces, vertical/horizontal tabs, non-breaking spaces, zero-length spaces, etc.
