Become overwhelmed and do nothing. This was not a problem prior to having children though. In the before time I’d go train in martial arts, video games with friends, etc.

We have been very lucky and fortunate to acquire the American dream. My wife and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without the help of her family though. Every time I look at the housing market it’s only gotten crazier.
A microwave/mini oven combo (or at least ours is). Despite the name, it actually takes quite a while to preheat.
I hear thermite is good at destroying things.
My wife and I were lucky enough to be able to purchase a home at a decent rate and then refinance a few years later to an even better rate (around 3.5%). We bought in 2019, when the world was still somewhat sane. The thought of trying to sell and get a new home at the higher rate makes me sick to my stomach and I feel bad for my brother-in-law.
When we redid our kitchen I demanded induction. We had a shitty electric stove before, but I love my induction. It’s be hard for me to go back to anything else.
I’m planning on building a new rig for Xmas and am gonna go Linux for my desktop OS for the first time.
I was working on one of my users desktops (adding RAM). The machine wasn’t recognizing all of it. I eventually cave and call tech support. Their solution was to not use all of the RAM slots. I called up the next day and got a competent person to replace the board, but pretty much all calls were like that.
I worked with HP once at an internship like 15 years ago…I still avoid them because of the shitty experience.
I switched to US Mobile last year. I had a rough month or two with data not working properly, but it’s smooth sailing now for $20/month for 5GB of data.
Me, an adult pushing 40, still can’t beat that section.
I just finished working out and noticed I had a flat after like 30 seconds of driving. It was dark and I pulled over on an uneven/unfinished area of road. A passerby helped me out by holding a flashlight, we were chatting as I was working, then all of a sudden my car fell off the jack (the flat had been removed). I was so lucky I didn’t crush my hand. After that I just called AAA to take care of it for me and I’ll never try changing a flat again.
On the Kindle, you can email yourself e-books.
Pay off my house, do all the little projects in the house we couldn’t afford, save enough for the kids college fund, and buy a few shiny toys. Then go back to work like normal…I’d go insane with nothing to do all day. On the plus side, my family will have the most amazing vacations.
I really enjoyed Pandorum and The Babadook.
