Politics isn't designed to choose a good leader, it's designed to choose the best leader from the given candidates, and usually none of them are good.

Cashier at the checkout: Did you find everything you were looking for?
Me: Of course. I'm buying stuff, aren't I?
If I came to the store to buy one thing specifically, strawberries for example, but didn't find it, then there are two ways that things could go:
I could continue shopping and buy other things, and then come back tomorrow to see if you have strawberries in stock. Then what if you still don't have strawberries? I'd have to check again the next day. If you never had strawberries in stock then I'd have to come back every day and buy some things every time. All of us poor strawberry-lickers would be shopping more than ever, but without the satisfaction of actually getting any strawberries. (1000 character limit)...

(continued)... Eventually Greedy McMoneybags, CEO of StoreCorp, would realize the potential profits and order every store to stop selling strawberries, but leave the signs up so that we still have hope that they will be in stock again soon. Farmers would be unable to sell their strawberries and would give up and grow different crops, counting strawberries as a worthless weed now. Strawberries would go nearly extinct before we realize how much of a jam we've gotten into. As the strawberry-less start to riot in the streets, world leaders would scramble to salvage the remaining strawberry crops around the world, eventually clashing and starting world war 3.
...or I could just walk out of the store, empty handed, and maybe shop at a competitor on the way home; finally breaking the perverse incentive for stores to intentionally be out of stock, and preventing nuclear war.

blah1: SVEDAX
jovban31: what is that supposed to mean?
blah1: isn't it obvious?
jovban31: no, that's why I'm asking!
jovban31: is that some kind of cheat code or something?
blah1: yeah, I've got to prime the random number generator
jovban31: but those are letters though

If I expected to make a profit from gambling, I would have studied economics and gambled with other people's money

destructomac: My mind is full of ♥♥♥♥, but that just triggered my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ alarm

blah1: good to know you even ♥♥♥♥ on yourself

destructomac: Everybody is an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, but nobody can smell their own ♥♥♥♥.

Even duct tape can't fix stupidity... but it can muffle the sound

Lift with your back. Drink with your lungs. Reason with your emotions.

Renergizelife: hot sauce doesn't go bad, but barbecue sauce does-
blah1: of course hot sauce goes bad, if you leave it out long enough it gets cold

Zuzumumba: What doesn't kill you will probably leave you paralyzed

Renergizelife: If you go to bread stores at the end of the week, sometimes they give away a big bag of bread for free, but the catch is that you have to take the whole thing.
AK47: What would you even do with that much bread?
blah1: Have you tried eating it?

the smell of freshly cut grass is actually a pheromone produced when the grass feels extreme pain or fear. It's used to warn the nearby grass of danger, and that they should run away.

As the great Gabe Newell said: "if you make it too much of a hassle to buy something, I'm going to pirate your ♥♥♥♥"

destructomac: gotta get the hoe and some chains, drag that ♥♥♥♥♥ across the yard

jovban31: is bryan a robot?
destructomac: yeah, I've been teaching him how to interact with people and stuff, I haven't done a good job of it.

destructomac: the moral of the story is--
jovban31: grasshoppers don't sting though! what the ♥♥♥♥?

I should write down something somewhere, stating something or other

no matter how dumb you think you are, there's always a more educated idiot out there

No matter how much you push your agenda, it's still stationery

destructomac: Would there really be lava in the middle of an asteroid?
blah1: Well, space is cold, so the asteroid would probably be cold too.
destructomac: But the core of the earth is hot...
blah1: Yeah, but the earth is big, so it's like it has a bunch of blankets around it. It's like if throw a mouse into a blizzard: it dies. But if you throw a bear into a blizzard... it also dies, but slower.

blah1: A hard drive has a fast cache, but the actual hard drive is slow as hell.
Imagine your OS hands the hard drive a stack of important paperwork to shred, but the hard drive can only shred one page at a time, so the OS just leaves most of the stack on the hard drive's desk and says it's done. Then the OS comes back with another stack of paperwork, but the hard drive says that it's not done shredding yet and only has enough desk space for one stack of papers. So the OS leaves a few papers and says that the hard drive is suddenly running a lot slower.
destructomac: Hard drives shredding files, that's the most blah1 analogy I've heard in a while

For social distancing I've been trying to alienate all my online friends. If I was to play an online game with a bunch of people then my computer might catch a virus, and because I have 6 computers in my room I don't have enough room to keep them all 2 metres apart from eachother

blah1: I have 4 dildos up my ass at all times
destructomac: I knew you were uptight, but...

Averost: Is there canadian hentai? I need to look this up now

jovban31: Oh great, now they're sharing ♥♥♥♥ pics
Nightstalker704: That's a lot different than the one you were on

NightStalker704: oh, another mosquito, let's shoot in his general direction and hope that he runs into my bullets

Everything I say is speculation, probably

"Things are generally more valuable when you see them through a telescope"

You're like Sheldon Cooper, but instead of being anal about being clean, you're anal about not being clean

<Jesus> i know it says on my spec sheet that i'm big endian but i identify as a small endian 48-bit trinary subprocessor unit now and i won't stand for this misendianness oppression

...Ah, the great units mix-up. I still felt compelled to use a conversion calculator and see what the actual numbers came out to in each system, because American units make no sense . (Except Fahrenheit might be OK if the only temperatures you ever had to measure were weather, but it's still not worth having a system that's annoying for everything else). Also, it looks like inches split into mixed binary fractions like 1 57/64" (except when they don't, and then they use 'mils' which are apparently milliinches). What's up with that? It makes comparing sizes of things a pain!

Canadian room temperature is 20 degrees, which cold enough to freeze water. American room temperature is 75 degrees, which is the recommended internal temperature to cook raw chicken to.

I understand that #pukeGreen isn't a valid color tag; but last time I did html programming, on internet explorer in windows XP, it ignored any extra characters, so in that browser #pukeGreen would render as #000e00, which is technically green, the best kind of green.

destructomac: ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, someone violated you before me, I'm kind of upset now

Hope is just unripened disappointment

destructomac: Are you ready for my Hello Kitty point and click adventure?

destructomac: all you ever play is linux

You sound so unmad that it's kind of overflowing into real mad.

Honestly, getting attacked from behind is just the worst!

What?
Actually what?
Touhou. On steam. Really?

>last played on 8 Sep
I'm pretty sure this is the longest I've gone without playing anything on steam. I think I might have played some tetris in the last couple months though.
