"You, sir, have won the Internet today!" No, I don't want it! Don't put that evil on me!

There is only one other family in this McDonald's Play Place, and they are eating in absolute, complete silence. It is the most unnerving thing ever.

Aww, this is cute!

Oof, seeing this is like reading a love letter too late.

Early on in my career, I was always keeping an ear to the ground, trying to find an in at BioWare. It was my north star. Utterly sad an surreal to see this. Best of luck to the talented people impacted.

Following up this with, in perfect contrast, the absolute worst honey container in history.

Fascinating.

Man, this is tragic, especially if the (unconfirmed) reports of suicide are true. RJ was doing a lot of advocacy work for more opportunities for those with disabilities, and I always appreciated seeing his interviews. RIP.

As was the style at the time, I had uploaded the Machinarium soundtrack to YouTube...let's see...17 years ago?! Jeez. Anyway, the sequel announcement has finally made it joyful experience to look at my YouTube comment notifications.

It seems like this is heavily skewed towards things you say about yourself in reviews, because it lists a bunch of my various jobs, as per old "...as a [random occupation]" novelty reviews.

This has got to be the most baffling loyalty program chart I've seen willingly presented.

Italian chef zombie character named Rigor Tony. Send tweet.

I exclusively hire iced coffees.

In Tokyo for a couple of days. I have to say, this view from the office here is pretty breathtaking.

Every single proposed company acquisition by Sony and Microsoft needs to be blocked moving forward.

For the last few months, I've been extolling the virtues of honey in squeeze bags to anyone who visits my kitchen. I feel it's the best honey innovation in decades.

The Resident Evil movie was a lot of fun, and more comedic than I expected. I appreciate that it was more a thematic rather than a plotline adaptation. Having said that, it'd been funny if Leon Kennedy showed up, parried a chainsaw, and then Bryan was just as afraid of him as any of the monsters.

Today marks the 25th anniversary of the last day of the '90s.

It's always fascinating when YouTube decides to recommend to me a video with fewer than 20 views.

What a ridiculous weekend it's been. We have to drop our most promising babysitter candidate because she was forbidden from going to a stranger's house and had her phone taken away for over a day by her police officer mother. Also, I should note that this candidate was in her mid-20s.

Was talking to my wife about Coyote vs Acme and I realized the best way I can describe why I like it is that it feels like a pre-9/11 movie.

Did that dialect quiz, and in addition to it basically clocking me exactly, it's interesting how much West Coast linguistic unity there is. ✊

Just saw a suggested Reddit post that was like, "What's the morality of killing your cheating partner's lover in front of them to teach them a lesson?" And, like, 95% comments were like, "Not moral; it's only moral for you to kill your partner."

I was literally just showing this image to a coworker yesterday about what the current game industry's pattern of "release game, immediately die" felt like, and then today the 2XKO news dropped.

I love how aggressive verification code texts have become: "We will NEVER ask you for your personal information, or anything, EVER! This message is a SCAM! Go AWAY and never come BACK! Your verification code is 266016."

Gonna start replacing "what do you do?" when meeting other white guys my age with "what's your podcast's name?" and then acting nonplussed when they say they don't have one.

I like to imagine this has nothing to do with Iran, and was instead some sitcom setup where he tried to sneak in an extra meal without getting caught.

I've been quiet on socials for a while, mainly because my son was viciously attacked by a kid twice his size and age at his summer program. It was especially difficult because he can't give words to his feelings, so I've been in a bit of a funk. But thankfully, he's fully physically recovered.

My biggest workplace quirk is that I find myself exclusively using the expression "quick question" before the longest question you've ever seen.

One of my more reasonable conspiracy theories is that these types of videos are specifically made in service of having more inexpensive food products deemed ineligible for food stamps.

I've been quiet for various and sundry reasons, but unrelated to everything, my neighbor cut down a tree, so I used that to make an anvil setup in my backyard.

Today is my birthday, which means getting into the calendar to schedule how best to redeem my loyalty program freebies before they expire.

A colleague I was chatting with on Slack responded to one of my comments with "🤣", then deleted that reaction, and then re-responded with "😂". I feel like I'm trying to read the tea leaves here.

My most controversial linguistic take is that the pronunciation of "W" can, will, and *should* evolve to just "dub" within the next century.

Not a fan of this water cup having an orgasm.
