When I was about 10, my digestive system just kinda halted. Doctors didn't know why; I didn't know why. It never happened before or since. But, they had me chug like a bottle of this stuff every day. Back then, (at least where we got it), it didn't even have the lemon flavor.

Anyway, thanks for the PTSD. (Joking... kinda)

As someone who has only ever used an electric stovetop in his entire 35 year life (SE USA), y'all will live. Trust me. My stir fry is fine.

Most of the time, when English speakers add random umlauts to a word, it makes no sense. But this is actually the correct pronunciation of ä.

I would just like to take this opportunity to let people know that the creator of Damn Small Linux has revived the project recently with a larger but modern yet still damn small distro.

https://www.damnsmalllinux.org/

(It has a GUI and stuff, so it's significantly bigger than the distro in the video.)

You know you're not supposed to free ball in jeans, right?

She thought she was being your best friend, but what she actually did was teach you that she can't be trusted.

Wait, I mean, lol

You might enjoy this book. It's like dictionary of random slang words from around the world, with different chapters based on categories.

Personally, I was a little disappointed because 99% of the definitions are just one sentence or sentence fragment. I was hoping to find out a little more about the origins of more of the words and maybe a little of the culture behind them.
