When I forget, the entry I had to change to get paragraph spaces to show in the Manticore WP theme: } div.entry-content p{ margin: 10; padding: 0; } The original values were, for some reason, both zero. I did try a margin of twenty, but that didn’t seem to make a difference. Zero to ten […]
Jesus H. jumping Jesus Harold Christ. Yes, yes, yes–I get it! She takes riding lessons and TKD, and something else I don’t remember. You have an iPhone, so you can send mail anywhere, anytime. I get that, too. Please stop sending me 500 photos a week. I like the kid, but FFS, if I was […]
I think I was talking to L. about how Hollywood always gets computers wrong. Maybe I was just thinking about it–don’t remember–but since he’s a living, breathing database of almost every movie that’s ever been released, I described the scene and hoped he’d know what movie. Unfortunately, he didn’t. All I could remember was that […]
This can’t be real. If I saw this sign somewhere, I would have absolutely no idea what it meant. In the instinct of self-preservation, I’m pretty sure I would not deliberately drive off the edge of the road and into the water. Does this mean I should, or shouldn’t? 🙂 P.S. In the event that […]
Brake. Brake. Brake-fucking-brake. Brake! Unless it’s one of the old junkers I drove twenty years ago, a car does not have breaks; it has brakes. Unless you’re a remarkably bad driver, and in remarkably poor physical condition, you do not break at an intersection, you brake. Jesus Christ, what is wrong with people…doesn’t anyone read […]
Problem: If I turn on the overhead light in the bedroom, it smells like an electrical fire is about to start. Solution: power down everything in the room, then turn things back on one at a time and monitor the results in an effort to see what, exactly might be overloading the wiring. Turns out […]
Such a shame that stupid, frightened and probably inbred white dudes can’t grasp the irony of, in an attempt to beat up an illegal immigrant, instead, beating up a boy who has more right to be on this continent, and indeed, in this country that their white European-descended arses. (“Liberated” from CNN) — A jury […]
If you’re bright enough to know the word, then for the love of all things holy (i.e. science, logic, good spelling and grammar), learn to spell it! Throws (propels rapidly through the air): The Grammar Nazi throws a large brick at your stupid, illiterate head. Throes (violent pains of suffering): If you continue to misuse […]
One way to make YouTube comments more bearable, and one way to make it more useable for multiple tabs. 🙂 Comment Snob add on makes the arseholes almost disappear (user-configurable, and the name makes me grin). TubeStop disables auto-play so I don’t have two videos playing at once just because I got curious and opened […]
I’d accidentally scratched myself; felt a hair tickling me under my shirt, and my goddamned nails are like razors, so I’d broken the skin. The scratch was bleeding, so I stuck a 3M Nexcare “tattoo” band-aid on it. Disney princesses or something; I didn’t look when I put it on and don’t know who it’s […]
