@LoreReporter Hey, did you end up finding anything relevant? I'm interested in the answer as well.

"I'm too tired to tolerate people not getting my jokes."

Any argument is won by he, who got nothing better to do.

A fully electronic piece, upbeat, but unhurried, a perfect fit for long nights of watching the radars, waiting for something to happen, and fearing that it does. The spectrum analyzer output for it is pleasant to look at as well.

It's always weird when two minutes into composition, a track suddenly develops a character and personality of its own and starts resisting any attempts to bend its internal consistency.

As that old saying goes, "If you want your poll results to be in any way representative, don't add "I'm Batman!" as one of the options."

I'm curious, how common is it in democracies for the military to have a distinct political opinion, independent from that of the government, and to decide whether or not they are going to perform their duties based on how much they agree with the political views of the current elected government?

"If anyone asks for me, i'm going to the bank." โ€” "Oh? What do they give there?" โ€” "They don't give. They only take."

"Cursed inflation! Soon, we won't be able to keep our butts covered! (beat) ...Which means there will be more naked people in the streets. (beat) I'm not sure if it's such a bad thing."

"It's that time of the year again! And This Here Radio will be celebrating romance with you with 24 hours of songs about breaking up painfully!"

"Warning: Using your computer to perform actual computations may void your warranty."

One thing that can be said about bouncing back from catastrophic hardware failure: it gets easier.

I guess, one legitimate reason to switch to IPv6 sooner is "couldn't get IPv4 to work on this machine".

If your position is only defensible through fallacies and manipulation, it might just be that your position is not a very good one, and not particularly worth defending.

If you insist that payment systems must remain functional even if or when civil infrastructure fails, i have only one question to ask you: Why on Earth are you still playing capitalism during an ongoing disaster?...

"You thought that just because thinking sand thinks you can just go ahead and stop being smart and paying attention? Well, sorry to disappoint!"

"You're an even weirder person than me!" โ€” "That's the nicest thing anyone told me in three months!"

"This is a weird dish, but the soy sauce makes it better. Soy sauce makes everything better."
