NEPHEW: Does life get easier when you're older?
ME: [eating "ranch blasted" taco shells directly from the box because they are basically giant corn chips] Life doesn't get easier but you learn to adapt
"Ladies! Are YOU looking for a good outfit for the office? Do YOU need to look professional and feminine?
Well look no further, because we at [EVERY FUCKING STORE YOU CAN FIND] have a MINISCULE collection of UGLY, UNFLATTERING blazers made of CHEAP, FLIMSY material in a DEEPLY LIMITED range of sizes!"
@parismarx Fun fact about a certain TLD:
âWith the fall of Kabul the .af domain again came under the control of the Taliban. ICANN said it âdefers decision making to within the countryâ.â

@parismarx I wish they told the whole story about the .io domain. It is uninhabited because the native islanders were evicted by force: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chagos_Archipelago
As a result, the profits on .io go to the UK government, not a small island nation.
The islanders were expelled to allow the US and UK governments to build a joint military base on Diego Garcia.
I didnât realize how valuable domains can be to small countries. Anguilla, which owns .ai, gets a third of its governmentâs monthly budget from domain sales. Tuvalu, which owns .tv, could make $10 million a year from the domain, allowing it to pave its roads and expand electricity access.
I just remembered the time when typing a capital letter 'O' in Telegram would crash it because I owned an NZXT watercooler.
Steps to reproduce Type a capital letter O in any message. Telegram crashes. This is reproducible on my desktop. The first instance of it showed up on 2017-12-11. Cannot reproduce on another system...
