No.

No, he did not.

I can guarantee it was merely the beginning of the next argument.

Ah, AI humor.

I’m laughing so hard I think it’s the equivalent of 50 sit ups! ALOL

I know as a card carrying member of the old timers crumudgeonly club that I often feel this way.

And dangit, I could climb into the engine compartment of a 67 Chvelle with a straight 6 to work on it.

Not that I ever did. But that's another story entirely.

Modern devices are a lot more efficient, but it does come with the problem of cheapest possible manufacturing.

A fridge from the 80s will use enough in electricity in a year or 2 to pay for a modern one

1) I have 1 of these in Avocado green down in the brew lab. holds my beer.

the newer brew lab fridge was attached to my BrewPi & was my fermentation fridge, but I haven't brewed in a while, & only annoy people in this forum, the Random Picture & the Drunken Thoughts forums

2) I once stood inside the engine compartment of my 72 Chevelle

you gonna trust your resume to a company with this kind of QC?

I think we have enough information to form a reasonable hypothesis.

GrogNerd is a gremlin.

 

[GrogNerd]

1) I was 1/3 the size I am now

2) it was a 350 small block

3) none of that is proof I am NOT a gremlin

I think we have enough information to form a reasonable hypothesis.

GrogNerd is a gremlin.

3) none of that is proof I am NOT a gremlin

I find this to be an ambiguous statement, and I choose to believe that the ambiguity was intentional.

 

[GrogNerd]

I'm honestly trying to find proof I am not a gremlin, & it's getting me very worried

 

[Kent88]

I'm reminded of how bothersome gremlins are in NetHack.

 

[balrog]

I had to google nethack.
So much of the internet just passed me by. Sigh.

Fun fact tho; my BIL actually knew Jay Fenalson in HS.

So, I'm that much closer to Kevin Bacon.

Back to the memes.

I gave you links to the official website and a wiki!

Thanksgiving isn't on a weekend.

Wait, WHAT!!??!!

But they call it Thanksgiving ‘weekend’ in all the weather/traffic reports.

 

[Broothru]

Your on a Thursday this year.

“You’re” ?

No.

No, he did not.

I can guarantee it was merely the beginning of the next argument.

That’s been an ongoing discussion for at least four decades.

 

[Kent88]

“You’re” ?

It's funnier if you don't point it out.

I said that to balrog as well, but it was too late.

[pvpeacock]

YOU'RE!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, I admit I was an English major.

Let’s give due Respect to the sloth! They haz some formidable choppers. (Tormenting grammar police is much less risky.)

 

[Broken Crow]

I'm no shining role-model for posts. Since my injury decimated my language/communicatiive faculties, my posts look like those that made me constantly cringe. Ironically, it was only a few years after injury that I finally came up with my 'perfect sentence' that you might want to try for sh--s and giggles:
Recite this to someone and ask them to type it out:
"They're going over there to get their things, then returning rather than stay. You're welcome to get yours as well."
You may be truly surpised at those who mess it up....great fun over coffee or beer.

EDIT: The injury also damaged my memory; I had forgotten my later ammendment to the last part of that which I adapted to: "You're welcome to get yours too."

Follow up. That made me remember Heathkit. And by gum they’re still around!

 

[Kent88]

Balrog actually was.
