When my oldest was about 1, I buckled him in, but didn't realize the carseat wasn't buckled in.

About a mile down the road, I turned and we went tumbling across the car in his car seat. It was completely upside down by the end.

The only thing that kept me calm was that he was cackling with laughter. He thought it was the funniest thing. Never made thay mistake again!

I was told "he's from Pennsylvania, he's registered as a republican, but he's a democrat. You see, the democrats have been voting as republican so they can vote on the republican ticket for Trumps enemies"

I just can't. I'm not looking forward to work this week.

I have had a "biohazard" call at a local college.

The platen glass is a lot thinner than it looks!

Also, depending on the model of the copier, it will not let you copy money, and if you attempt it too many times, it will literally brick the machine.

Something cool to do is to take your phone and turn on the selfie camera. Lay that on the platen and make a copy to see a trippy pattern.

If you want to screw with someone, lay a single paperclip on the platen and make a bunch of copies of it. Take your copies and shuffle them into the paper tray face up (assuming you're using an office laser copier) so every once in a while, someone will get a paper clip on their print.

Sometimes your printer won't print in black and white if a color is out because it uses all of the colors to create a deeper black. Depends on the model though.

And some of them use yellow as a lubricant because yellow toner has a consistency close to water.

Also, please do not copy money or your butt. Trust me.

I haven't been on Reddit since the day they killed the apps.

Life has been more peaceful in some ways, and I'm not as stressed out. I stopped watching the news too, which had a similar effect.

The spices at the grocery store I've been going to for the past 25 years has had the spices alphabetized this entire time.

Edit, I misread the question but I'm not fixing my response

I grew up as the "IT guy" in small town America.

This guy, and the people here (not you) sound like a lot of people I know. I'd look for a different job and grow your passion somewhere else. It isn't worth it. You won't change them, and they're just going to make you feel like you're wrong, even though you're right. It's like the movie Idiocracy.

One of my coworkers carries a flipper zero around and opens up every single Tesla gas door we see. He hasn't tried it on the cybertruck yet, the ones I see are usually on the move.

I am getting so irritated with AI everywhere. It doesn't even work right. It just seems so lazy

Man, I saw one 2 weeks ago up close.

Its such a fingerprint magnet, it's not even funny. The owner was using it just like a normal pickup and normal things you do with pickups were causing serious wear and tear that should take years. The buttons for the bed cover feel cheap and like they're going to break. There's no way they'll stand up to California sun. The front quarter panel corner is SHARP. There are lots of sharp corners that are very capable of causing harm.

I always look at everything with a "how could I fix this if it breaks" mind, and the cybertruck just drives me nuts. It'd be impossible to fix

I know you're a stranger, but I get the keys to the apartment in about an hour!!!

I want to tell everyone, but I have nobody to tell. I'm FINALLY going to have a home to go home to.
