I always find it funny how many people have no sense of humor. I estimate it to be around 1/3. @RobertKennedyJr can we get an NHS study started to help these poor people?

Yeah, it’s funny that Mark is still using AOL

But the flex attempt with the “dial up” thing is just lame.

AOL went broadband 25 years ago.

I was literally the Project Manager at Time Warner that made it happen.

Not the clever flex you think it is.

You arrogant shits can make fun of “old folks” as much as you want but they’re literally the people who invented and built all the tech you seem to think they’re too old to understand.

Far too many kids today know very little about how and why such things actually work.

@AuntSuziQuilts Wait are you telling me you don't have a whole professionally lit walk in closet for your collection of identical purses?

[Andrew M @Drewder]

Call me crazy but they seem to have an excessive purse budget.

[Andrew M @Drewder]

@disclosetv Were they run on Microsoft office?

[Andrew M @Drewder]

This is perfectly femine behavior. What woman hasn't gotten sadistic pleasure from knocking out a woman to resolve a dispute. Why would anyone be worried about him in the women's room?

[Andrew M @Drewder]

@muninn_logic Author is a more stable title than most job titles. Once you have the title, you never really lose it even if you never write again. Compare that to a mailman who is never called a mailman again after he quits.

[Andrew M @Drewder]

Suki-chan would like to remind you to stop scrolling occasionally and read some classic literature. Today she's enjoying Pride and Prejudice. What are you reading?

[Andrew M @Drewder]

@muninn_logic No it is similar to a job title. Like you could call me an engineer with reference to anything I have engineered. It's a quality of the woman regardless of context.

[Andrew M @Drewder]

@muninn_logic Oh, I thought she was dating someone in a very different age group

[Andrew M @Drewder]

@muninn_logic Regardless of who wrote the biography. You were describing her to me. My question was who she was not who wrote the book. Assuming she is an author the sentence works. Novelist is a subset of authors, all novelists are authors but not all authors are novelists.

[Andrew M @Drewder]

@muninn_logic Romance regardless of age? That'll get you arrested...

[Andrew M @Drewder]

@muninn_logic I'm sorry slight correction it's an author not a author.

A when it is a consonant sound at the start of the next word
An when it is a vowel sound.

A dog, A cat
An author, an hour (silent h)

[Andrew M @Drewder]

@muninn_logic You would say she is a Japanese writer.

[Andrew M @Drewder]

@muninn_logic Is the book interesting?

[Andrew M @Drewder]

Good Knee Day (November 13)

Today is いいひざの日 — a Japanese pun-day (“ii hiza”) created to remind people to take care of their knees as the weather turns cold. Knee pain is incredibly common, especially as we get older, and a little awareness goes a long way.

Stretch, strengthen, and don’t ignore that ache. Your future self will thank you.
(And if your knees are already complaining… you have company.)

[Andrew M @Drewder]

@muninn_logic Who is chiyo uno?

[Andrew M @Drewder]

@muninn_logic I have to say I've never seen the lid wearout in 4 babies. Dobyou refill them?

[Andrew M @Drewder]

All that and she didn't even catch thr fish.
