Do you use voice commands with your smart speaker? Do your houseguests learn the names of all the devices and groups so they can, too? I’m getting a real kick out of this.

He’s like the kid who pulled the legs off a spider just to feel he had power.

Words matter. “The staff at that restaurant will knock your socks off,” is way different from, “The staff at that restaurant will pull your socks off.”

The phrase “Slap my ass and call me Judy” just isn’t as fun when your aunt’s name is Judy.

I was disappointed after I finally got a NYT subscription—with the Sunday home delivery option—to find that they don’t carry comic strips. That would have been the ultimate nostalgic eye candy, harkening back to the days of reading Bloom County, Doonesbury, and other favorites.

The first time a human laid their head against another’s chest and heard something thumping, I’m sure they went and got everybody in the cave and said, “You gotta hear this! What is it?!”

If you have pain that isn’t a broken bone, look for an Airrosti location near you. They have repeatedly relieved severe muscle pain much faster than a traditional physical therapist. I’m about to do exercises for my latest recovery right now. Find their simple pain-relief videos on YouTube for free.

Using an account with a $0 balance to schedule a person-to-person (P2P) payment for later (say, after you get paid) is equivalent to the old days of writing a check and asking the recipient to wait to deposit it—except you don’t have to trust them to wait.

Sometimes I find myself wondering whether I should shout, “Take it to the house!”or “Bring it home!”

When a recent guilty pleasure—beatbox I found on Spotify—sounds like it sampled fart noises we made as kids, I hit skip.

I will always enjoy discovering a song or a musician I like. Sure, the old stuff’s still great, but why limit yourself?

That feeling when you lean in slowly and your lips tiptoe to the rim of the glass holding possibly spoiled milk.

Little Red Fungus. Baby, you’re much too fast. Brevard, NC. Summer 2023. #FungiFriends #mushroom #mycology

Remember: as far as your dogs or cats know, you are static shocking them on purpose.

Just wanted to join the fungal fun. Avalanche Mountain, outside Boyne City, MI. Spring 2024. #FungiFriends #mushrooms #nature

Have you ever been asked to say grace over a meal at a friend’s home? How did that make you feel? How did you handle it? Did you feel the same at about it at age 20 as you did at age 40? Not 40 yet? Round down.

Do all gas grill makers gather and decide to make the manual sparkers last exactly four lightings before they fail?

I saw that a post by @stephenking.bsky.social had only 392 comments, so I figured maybe there was a shot he would read and reply to mine. Because, you know, that isn’t much to wade through, and boy was I clever with the callbacks to his works.
