Memes and image macro were never synonyms. Image macros are memes, but that doesn’t mean all memes are image macros.

Same. School firewall blocked based on host names, so we all learned a lot about the hosts file so we could manually set all of the IPs Minecraft needed to authenticate.

Even more so, a pretend friendly stranger that’s documented as being in your location.

I disagree. You have to speak in a language people are willing to understand. More memes about things that improve the lives of citizens, please. Tear us down for our shitty infrastructure.

I could totally be misremembering, but I seem to recall the Ezio trilogy being praised for accurate cities. So not the original originals, but probably some of the best.

But imagine if you grew up with and struggled alongside those 40 plays for your whole life.

This used to be unironically true, to an extent. Especially with the original games.

Amazing typo.

It started with BoatyMcBoatface, as far as I know. The winner for naming what became the Sir David Attenborough.

Isn’t the Panama Canal basically running out of water? They should act like they’ve been cowed, sell it to us for a ton of money, and laugh all the way to the bank.

If the espresso isn’t making you pee, you might just be dehydrated. Caffeine is a diuretic, so it’s going to make you lose some water.

This is often called “waiting mode” and there are strategies to help deal with it. For me, that’s alarms. If I have an appointment, I’ll set alarms for when to be in the shower, out of the shower, and out the door. It allows you to actually relax.

Ooh, I know this one. The shirt is in my still unpacked suitcase from that trip three years ago.

My mom found three gifts I bought for her in the same suitcase 6 months after I returned.

If you have Italian ancestry, they actually have government help that will do free reviews of US immigration documents. I missed my Italian citizenship by a few years :(

But it was super easy to find out. Just google around for it, jure sanguinis or something like that.

Mine bullies me precisely by staying just out of my line of sight and rattling things.

This isn’t cultural, it’s a physical necessity of turning on a bike. If you were to just turn, you’d fall over. I seem to recall veritassium having an excellent video where they physically prevented the bike from countersteering to showcase.

People do it in cars for another reason; it gives you a wider turn angle.

My cat learned I can’t see when I have the VR headset on and knocked a lamp over onto my head.
