TMI.

At my first scoping, they said I may or may not fall asleep, and could watch the procedure on the monitor if awake. I thought cool - I'll watch. Next thing I knew, I was waking up in a recliner.

I woke up and a nurse was pressing repeatedly on my lower abdomen with both hands and having a conversation with someone I could not see. When she looked back down and saw I was looking at her she nearly jumped out of her shoes. I said, "What are you doing?". She said, "I'm trying to get all that gas out they used to inflate your colon for the exam." I said, "Honey, I can take care of that, don't you worry."

Somewhere there's a fashion designer wearing a canvas jacket with extra long sleeves and giggling hysterically at this.

I wouldn't mind helping her search for that phone charger she's sure she packed somewhere...

I played the flute from 5th grade through high school. Still have it. Muscle memory lasts a long time, I can still finger it (snork) but 35+ years of doing bad things to my lungs says I can play twinkle twinkle little star, then I need a nap. Also I never understood why it was pronounced 'floutist' not 'flutist'.

 

[Kent88]

Hopefully there wasn't anything subtly inappropriate about the flutist meme. I just passed it on to my niece.

Isn’t one who plays the flute actually known as a “flautist?”

 

[Kent88]

Why can things only be uncouth? Why can't they be couth?

 

[Kharnynb]

as soon as i get something new, all tags go out...
how in the hells have clothing companies not figured out that putting a bit of sandpaper quality material right in the most likely part to rub on the skin is a bad idea?

Why can things only be uncouth? Why can't they be couth?

The word exists meaning cultured or refined, and autocorrect is willing to suggest it on my phone.

We just need to start using it in conversation again and be willing to sound like Downton Abbey.

Other than the fact that my flutist wife didn't even chuckle, there's nothing I recognize as inappropriate. Which may not be saying much.

Living with one, I've heard it both ways. Apparently it's an American vs British thing.
Flutist is the far more common term chosen in the American vernacular, but according to “Webster's Dictionary of English Usage,” flautist is more proper in British English.

I call them flutiers…

 

[Broothru]

I call them flutiers…

So that would be with the French pronunciation?

I knew it was hurtful, somehow, but I just wasn't l33t enough to know why until I looked up "fork bomb".

Some days, I just feel old.

Other days, I feel old and stupid.

Inside the body, the function is invoked twice and the pipeline is backgrounded; each successive invocation on the processes spawns even more calls to ":". This leads rapidly to an explosive consumption in system resources, grinding things to a halt.


Note that invoking it once, infinitely recursing, wouldn't be good enough, since that would just lead to a stack overflow on the original process, which is messy but can be dealt with.


A more human-friendly version looks like this:

kablammo() { # Declaration
kablammo | kablammo& # The problematic body.
}; kablammo # End function definition; invoke function.

Sounds like it's in the spirit of rm -rf

Some people just want to watch the world burn.

Got that right.
Nimrods.

 

[Dland]

Current word usage and definitions have got kind of queer these days; For instance, the word Nimrod, the way I remember learning it, was a compliment to one, usually a hunter, that helped his (or her, I suppose)'s tribe out by bringing in a lot of game or other needed foodstuffs.

 

[DBhomebrew]

The insult came about nearly 75 years ago.

BTW, queer has a new meaning too.
