I figure if anybody decides to act on their road rage against me, I'll just pull out my phone and point it at them

it upsets me that ridiculous is an extra "i" away from being an anagram for ludicrous

In the past week I have arrived on the scene of 3 car accidents within moments of them happening (I actually witnessed one of them from a block or so away), and last night I was the first car at a light in a southbound lane and a woman went to turn left eastbound to northbound apparently think she had an arrow. But oncoming traffic also had the green, and she nearly took out 2 westbound cars who were at the speed limit of 40mph. I very easily could have been collected in that if they had come together. I hate people.

Driving home in the snow, one lane road, 35 speed limit. The car in front of me is doing 25-30, as am I, taking it nice because of the shitty roads. Get to a red light and the guy behind me goes into oncoming traffic to pass us both, and proceeds to take off. Guy behind him then tries to pass as we now have the green, then decided against it. Tails me to the next light, and goes into the left turn lane to try and get around the car in front of me, but spins wheels enough that he’s still behind them. I turned right. Hope they both ended up in a ditch.

We were overtaken by a guy yesterday on a 2-lane country road against double yellows. Guy got ahead of us, tucked in behind the Amazon truck 70' further up the road from us........ and stayed there for the next 1.5 miles until we turned into our destination.

I went for a walk in the snow last night with my daughter and dog. A hillbilly truck pulled into our little neighborhood fishtailing all over the place intentionally. I was not amused.

I don’t want to speak for him, but most controls are at the top of apps, so for the sake of efficiency, I could see it.
This is it. App controls have been at the top of applications since before I was born. Only natural to have the taskbar just above.

It's not hidden though.
Decided to install Windows 11 on my least used notebook. There is no option to put the Taskbar at the top (or sides, for that matter). :evil:

occasionally I buy clothes off of eBay and Poshmark, especially jeans since I only wear Levi's 550 model.
it drives me crazy when they arrive and the seller has washed them in a strong perfumey detergent. :scared:

My wife bought a 23 and Me kit a while back and I've been waiting for the results. First they were supposed ready by the 1/13. Then it changed to 1/20. Now it changed to 1/27. Just **** start with the worst-case scenario date if you're that inundated with testing.

They've been having a hard time cataloging the mutations caused by the COVID vaccine.

they should just push that date back every year from December 1 to March 1. plenty of people give those things as gifts for the holidays.
when my siblings and I did one a few years ago, we used my brother's spit since he's the oldest. we sent it twice and they said results were inconclusive. finally I just sent my own in and got results. it turns out that cilantro DOES taste like dishwater. it also said I was likely to prefer vanilla over chocolate for ice cream. seeing as I have a small bowl of chocolate ice cream almost every night, I'd say that's wrong.

With supply chain disruptions, it's probably taking a while to build the robot that is going to slowly steal your life out from under you...which is what you get for sending your DNA in to the internet...

We've come a long way from "don't use your real name in your email address!"

I'm more peeved that I can't move or halt the clock display on the lock screen.
