At war with local postmaster. Today took an unexpected twist Months of threats they'd hold my mail..they finally did it I call..finally..we exchange words. Postmaster says: "I need to find who is using my name!" Have I been fighting an imposter postman ghost this past year!?!

How uncanny that when combining equal parts Owen and Luke Wilson you get older brother Andrew Wilson.

Me, field trip, 3rd Grade, Zoo has Jurassic Park. They're working on robot T-Rex and the neck skin was moving so realistically. The words came out before my mind could hit the brakes. "Is that thing real?" That teacher looked through me into my future and snatched my soul.

Whenever I start off a sentence with "Well theoretically..." I feel like a pretentious bag of hammers It's my equivalent of "Umm.." and I use it in equal measure...soul-crushingly equal measure

The thing that makes coding hard is not learning a new syntax/language, it's that you are learning to use a new lens to view your problems and sometimes a different world Similar to spoken languages echoing and influencing each other, your code reads like a caveman speaking

I wince every time I: $>sudo apt seach On the other hand I accept this is who I am, I will not stop, and I have made peace with it Of all things taking me down the "accepting myself" journey I never guessed this would be my catalyst. Linux you rascally little Buddha

The person who gives ChatGPT a lead role at their company is the same sociopath who "life hacks" an extra hour of sleep into their drive to work using Teslas autopilot. It's all working as expected until you think a white semi-truck is a cloud.
