9·2 days agoAnd you be left with shitty, immoral, um …. wait I think I just noticed something….
This made me smile. 😊
After seeing so many embarrassing pics of things caught in a reflection I would be scared to death to take that pic.

27·2 days agoI’ve said this before…
I’m starting to think these Israelis are just real shitbags….
Well there’s an image I can’t get outta my head … even though it’s very accurate and I’ll likely steal that phrase 😀

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Should I tell my dad that his mistake almost cost me a fortune?English
1·2 days agoThere are much better than me in their fields of interest. But they are at the age that they think their parents are idiots (two are in their early 20s… the other two are older and starting to understand).
Here’s an example: The youngest tried to “explain” how some technology works and I had to go all Aslan on him … “Do not cite the Deep Magic to me, Witch. I was there when it was written”. I’ve been working with computers and tech since the late 70s/ early 80s… I’m not that old just got started at a very early age and was good at it. He’s an environmental scientist so he’s no dummy. He’s just doesn’t quite grasp how much I know about certain things. Folly of youth I guess.
But yes they are better at many things, just not all. And yes I let them know frequently.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Should I tell my dad that his mistake almost cost me a fortune?English
3·2 days agoThis is kinda hurting my head because I’m torn.
I’d want to know if I were the dad. I’ve been in IT for almost 30 years and I make mistakes and learn stuff all the time. It was very likely a brain fart moment.
The tricky part in my opinion is it coming from my kid. My kids are know-it-all assholes 😀 Luckily none of them are in IT.
If I were you I’d let it slide unless it happens again. I’d probably recheck his work a time or two just to verify it was a fluke. But old people retire for a reason. I’m old so I can say that.
Never really played CoD but my first thought was “Man this sure looks like a video game map”
Mr. Beast has the eyes of a psychopath so I’m not surprised.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•How many times do you think an ant has killed a person?English
2·2 days agoThis was my second thought. Some very complicated “sliding doors movie” Rube Goldberg situation…
But your story is like super specific. Are you really a murderous ant?

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•How many times do you think an ant has killed a person?English
4·2 days agoOk this made me chuckle. I read it in Chris Pratt’s voice for some reason.
