When I first used a sticky trap, I thought the whole point of it was to be less barbaric, like you can free the mouse after it gets caught. After prying it off with a plastic fork outside and unintentionally breaking all of its legs, I realized how much better the snappy bar traps are. I had a coworker that threw boiling water on mice. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghOsty Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 just use live traps and set them free somewhere far enough away from your house, like a park or something... mice aren't THAT scary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I've seen videos. No way in hell am I using glue traps. 44 minutes ago, ghOsty said: just use live traps and set them free somewhere far enough away from your house, like a park or something... mice aren't THAT scary. They've scared the shit out of me on several occasions. Not in a horror-like sense, but just startling me by being small and fast and appearing pretty much out of nowhere. Plus they're potential disease carriers, and they've turned one of my storage bins into a toilet. Regardless, benign traps are what I'll have to use from now on if I hope of...redemption. I'd have to get used to going up and down three flights of stairs every time though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephyr_Nova Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 (edited) I got my wallet/credit card out to pay my parking ticket online, but the ticket itself is no longer on my person. I tried to pay at City Hall a month ago but it happened to be on a holiday so they were closed. Oh well, I tried.

zkom Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I don't know how new thing this is but I've ran into it just recently that people in HR and recruiting don't call job interviews any more job interviews.. It's getting fucking ridiculous. So, occasionally recruiters contact me saying "would you like to come for a little chat in our office" or "how about a small discussion about possibilities in our company" and "it's not a job interview just a friendly discussion". Possibly followed with a bunch of emojis. I'm a freelancer without clients or commissions with plenty of time so why not, get some free coffee and have a chat. But when I get there.. yeah, it's a fucking job interview. There's maybe someone from the HR and some manager sitting behind a table with their laptops open and my CV or LinkedIn page on the display. Notebooks in their hands.. "Do you mind if we take notes?" And then they start by giving some presentation about their company and after that bombarding with questions about what I've done before. Then it ends it with either "sorry, I don't think you're suitable for any of our positions" or "I think we'll be moving onward with you, but there's two more rounds of interviews and you need to provide a sample of your work". And I'm left thinking "wtf, I didn't know I applied for any position". I don't really mind being called to job interviews but just fucking call it an interview if it's an interview and not an informal discussion. Thank you.

manmower Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 So are my hard drive's, it seems. 4 TB internal drive tanking after just over 5 years. I have a complete backup but geez. No internal HDD I've held on to in the last 10 years has made it past the 5-6 year mark. I'm now reading this is normal, but then why are drives I gave away to other people merrily cruising along at twice that age. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ignatius Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 i think i missed the poppy planting window. perhaps. the new oled for my DX11 is taking a while to get here. DX11 is still in pieces on a table. though i did fix the 4 broken keys w/o much fuss. the keys came from same part of the world as the screen is coming from (UK) but the keys got here in like 4 days or something. and was only $3.95 shipping. OLED taking its swet time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chenGOD Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I’m clearly old. I don’t understand young kids. I’m out watching the nba playoffs at a bar. Table next to me, smoking hot girl and some dude. Out drinking soft drinks and waters and the guy is spending most of his time watching YouTube videos on how to slice vegetables. tl;dr I’m old 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goDel Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 And a stalker! Coming from someone who is curious about what the f people are staring at on their phones as well, btw. The younger generations are worse, it seems. Because they are staring at their screens even when they are with their friends. Older generations generally use their screens to keep themselves busy. When they got nothing else to do. Younger generations have mastered the art of staring at different screens in a social context. Watching something together is old fashioned. They can be together while they'll remain invested in their own private screen. They wouldn't even understand people getting annoyed about them being invested in their screens, I'm guessing.
