  • Why does every married man I talk to about marriage benefits seem to feel that staying single is better?

    Jump

  • They aren’t stupid answers. They’re showing that there are people that are in happy marriages unlike the people the OP has been talking to.

  • This makes a lot more sense than anyone else has explained it. Thanks for being honest about your feelings. It does help.

  • Terrible advice. Screening prolongs lives much more than you think. Got a history of family polyps? Which a lot do, get screened. Those will turn cancerous. Wife is an RN at a GI clinic. They see it day in and out.

    But no, go ahead and just bury your head in the sand so you don’t have to go through 1 night of shitting your brains out to find out they removed the polyp(s) that would have turned into cancer in 5 years and resulted in only having to remove some intestine, if you’re lucky. Just 1 example of why it’s important to do it. And, if you react well to anesthesia, propofol is one hell of a great nap.

    What are the risks to be screened? Super freaking low.

  • Sit/Stand desk are cheap enough now that they’re actually the same price or cheaper than normal desks these days. That’s motorized too. That’s all we buy now when expanding.

  • Oh for sure, everything he does is retaliatory.

  • Linux is awesome at home, but aren't y'all forced to use Windows at work?

    Jump

  • We’re on an enterprise edition too and it so sanitized it’s almost nice. Still slow as crap compared to a linux distro on the same hardware.

  • Sharepoint and collaborative editing is what keeps us on Windows. Everything else we do is browser based so the OS doesn’t matter. I suppose we could live in Office365 but it’s not nearly as full featured as the desktop apps.

  • What's your winter holidays movie?

    Jump

  • Scrooged.

    Just so packed with knock out one-liners, plus the monologue Bill Murray gives at the end is incredible.

    Classics:

    • Holiday Inn
    • White Christmas
    • Christmas in Connecticut
    • It’s a Wonderful Life
    • Miracle on 34th Street (original)

  • Will pictures have the same meaning they used to?

  • My wife compiles the best of the years’ photos into a calendar and sends them to grandparents, etc. Always a big hit.

    We have them favorited and they show up on our AppleTV’s screensaver so we see them all the time. Another big hit with the family and friends.

  • Didn’t know Nestle owned them. But thanks for ruining my morning. 😉

    Also, this is the only one I’d like. Keurig tastes terrible. I’m normally an Aeropress Café Americano person.

  • I was talking to an old timer that went part time and asked him if he thinks it’s gotten harder to manage people and processes. He responded, “oh hell yes. I couldn’t do what you are expected to do.”
