The politics thread is locked so let’s talk about anything else

Andy Rooney, Art Rooney, Wayne Rooney... what does it matter when they always fuck you at the drive-through?

 

This thread is made for @SpeedTchr. I am delighted.

 

When one breaks.

 

It’s becoming increasingly difficult to find wiper blade refills (just the rubber part that meets the windshield). Even auto part stores usually just have the entire blades on display and I have to ask at the counter for just the refills. More times than not, the counter folks look at me as though I’m asking for a buggy whip replacement handle or a wagon wheel steel rim.

I’m pretty sure that this situation is more evidence of emasculated men fumbling through a culture filled with disposable, rather than repairable, consumer goods brought as a direct result of the popularity of man buns and pencil-leg jeans.

 

I'm always irked when a mouse (computer variety) starts acting up. I just want to click on my words and get on with my work. I don't need some crazy menu popping up, or my words suddenly to transmogrify into subscript or superscript.

 

Andy Rooney was a terrifically nice man.

 

Nothing enrages me more on a regular basis than getting something stuck on the bottom of my bare feet. Twigs, leaves, stickers, Cheez-It remnants, raisins, etc.

 

LEGOS!!!1!

 

When I was a kid, they wrapped Ding Dongs in thin aluminum foil. You could do things with that stuff. You could have fun with it after you ate the glorious pastry. Now they're inside some plasticky faux aluminum crap that doesn't even crumple up correctly. I try to throw it in the garbage can and it floats wide like a Wilt Chamberlain free throw.

 

I'm fucking crying.

 

DID YOU KNOW that Lincoln Logs were invented by Frank Lloyd Wright's son, John?

The Birth of Lincoln Logs

 

I change my wiper blades about every year.
