There’s a really old movie about an eccentric woman who gets awestruck at one point when she spots a workman in overalls with a loop like this - typically used to carry a hammer. She breathlessly explains that “the loop” is the sign of a true master with in-depth knowledge and experience, almost like he’s part of a priesthood. I have no idea what movie it is. I can picture her face vividly but can’t come up with a name.
Perl was once described as “the swiss army chainsaw of scripting languages.” For a second I thought they meant Larry Wall. I associate Matt Trout more with his libraries and the Catalyst framework. Definitely a Perl guru tho. RIP, buddy.
Taking a break from running a TV camera at an event, I said to another camera operator who was in a wheelchair, “It feels great to get out of there and just walk around!” He considered this for a moment and just replied, “Yeah.”
Title of your sex tape!
I don’t pay attention to Rosie O’Donnell and didn’t even know she was his critic until Bonespurs himself announced it. Smooth move, Taco Boy. Also you don’t even have the authority to do this, you idiot.
I could totally see this being sold in a booth at a Con.

It had no business being made, so it wasn’t.
That’s the spirit!!! Also it will be raining - indoors!
Never dreamed it but my friends are kind of living it - they are compulsive thrift shop book buyers who built an addition onto their house for their collection of 50k+ books. High ceiling, rolling ladders, the works. Their garage is like a stack room at the library.
I know I can do it, and don’t call me a goon.
Good catch! The internet loves simpe rules for whether somebody deserves a black hat or a white hat without pesky details like a thought process.
I was wrong to call you the Psych 101 student, since you weren’t doing the Psych 101 student behavior I described. “They’re not the same thing” is more of a typical social media comment from someone who simply likes to argue, as you’re continuing to do. Not interested.
I would just turn the machine back on and wait longer.
Duh.
Found the Psych 101 student.
I would defy anyone to distinguish between the smirk the article describes - “a half-smile where one side of the lip lifts slightly” from the google definition of smirk - “a facial expression characterized by a subtle, often one-sided, upward curving of the mouth, often without showing teeth.”
Article goes on to say the same smirk is also a non-narcissist’s sign of satisfaction at seeing justice served.
So will you be the Psych 101 student who is suddenly a psychoanalyst and labels people because they smirk, or will you understand that something you saw on lemmy doesn’t equip you to judge anyone?
I don’t see how it’s weird, hypocritical, disingenuous, or in any other way puzzling that different individual people think differently.
Bonespurs says a lot of things. In a 1967 case Afroyim v. Rusk the US Supreme Court held that no US citizen can involuntarily lose their citizenship. But you’re right that the USA I once knew is dead - in that one a spoiled toddler who can’t find his own leaky asshole with a funnel would never have been elected President.
In the early 60s my teenage cousin constantly held a “transistor radio” like this up to her ear, listening to top 40 stations. I bet it sounded similar.
Memes notwithstanding, the Supreme Court hasn’t consistently ruled in Trump’s favor, even stuffed with 3 of his nominees (thanks to Moscow Mitch). The court did save his ass in their insurrection ruling, but in his second term they’ve been ruling about 50-50 for and against him so far. Here’s an article if you’re interested.
