Durcaells’s new avatar is creeping me out. What the heck is that thing, and why won’t it stop staring into my soul!

One of them os an article about Rick and Morty, of all things. I don’t even watch that show, I was tweeting about Samurai Jack. This is weird.

Article about Rick and Morty

Lazy ‘Article’ research that consists of searching Twitter for keywords and copy-paste. It’s weird, but it also speaks to the sad state of things on the internet.

Thanks. Things seem ok today, but I’ve got a slight fever so I might be a bit delusional.
Me and that mouth o’ mine… sheesh.

Why is it when I google “hebephile”, the first result I get right at the top has a photo of Luke Skywalker from TLJ in it?

Apparently that suggested snippet uses a page from the Criminal Minds Wikia. If you click on that image, you see that it is hosted on the Criminal Minds Wikia. My guess is that at the bottom of that page in the “fan feed” section, the image once appeared. The Google algorithm must have gotten confused and thought that was part of the article content, and therefore, used it as the image.

The weird thing about is that it used this entry from the Criminal Minds Wikia, and not the Wikipedia page. Not sure why the algorithm did that.

And I do hate those “suggested pages” sidebar thingies.

Mildly annoyed with my Dad. We got some guitars from my late grandfather, and he wants to sell the Stratocaster. Ok sure, his decision. However, I tune it to see if I have the same problems with it he does (the bridge being to high up and not sitting flush) when I overtighten the first string and break it, and notice that the bridge lies more flush now.

I brought up my suspicions that perhaps that the bridge problems he had might be because the strings are too tight on it (though I said overtuned) And he said that couldn’t be the case because he used an electric tuner. Well it’s tuned right, why is the bridge practically being pulled out of its socket?

If The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr., Frasier, Sliders, Stranger Things, The Twilight Zone, and Twin Peaks could be combined into a single TV show, for me, that would be the best TV show ever made.

I recently mentioned that I had a big interview coming up at the city’s most prestigious barber shop. It was cancelled to move to another date. A few weeks went by and I didn’t hear anything so I assumed it wasn’t gonna happen. But, about 20 mins ago I got the call! Friday at 10am.
I’m excited for the opportunity, but I’m Nervous, Man. Nervous!

I love this forum for all these references to things I didn’t know about before.

Was there really any room for it to go down further?
