Pretty much everything in this post just says 2025 in different forms.

True, but if it’s any consolation to OP, I’m an accountant. Excel is always open.

It’s an organization or club or something where the criteria for joining is having an IQ above whatever their minimum is. (Like 120 or something maybe?)

And what’s with the string addition? Never heard of f-strings or even .format()?

Based on this comment alone, I am 100% sure that you are not a lawyer.

Oh my God, you weren’t exaggerating.

I don’t think anyone said that nonviolent protest was safe…

There are “kinder eggs” here now, but they are in no way the kinder eggs that they have in Europe. They’re the same brand, but with a ton more plastic packaging so that we don’t get all confused about what’s chocolate and what’s not.

I dream of the day that we make America a place that OP would like to visit.

Probably true for a lot of people TBH

I didn’t have a great mom. This is the first mother’s day where my first instinct was to look around and see all the great moms in my life instead of just hating that my mom has a holiday. Like the one waking up next to me (who is not my kids’ bio-mom but is nevertheless a great mom), my grown daughter who has fur babies, and the various moms involved in our kids’ schools. There are lots of great moms out there.

This reminds me of the time that I learned that the correct answer to “what’s up?” is “what’s up?” At least in the context of that one coworker who would say that to me as we were walking past each other.

I’ve since learned to recognize these things as a “bid for connection”. It generally has little to do with the content of the question or the answer and everything to do with relating.

So basically there is no wrong answer. And there are lots of good examples in this thread!

Personally I tend to answer “not much” as a knee-jerk reaction, but sometimes I’ll remember to say something else after that.

It is so weird to mention Monsanto in this headline.

I don’t think your existence depended on your having sex with your wife…

I think you’re still giving them too much credit with the for loop and regex and everything. I’m thinking they exported something to Excel, got 60k rows, then tried to add a lookup formula to them. Since you know, they don’t use SQL. I’ve done ridiculous things like that in Excel, and it can get so busy that it slows down your whole computer, which I can imagine someone could interpret as their “hard drive overheating”.

The post in the screen shot is dated February 14, 2025 though?

Charlatan?

Uh, you’re either supposed to complain about censoring or over-analyze the meme. What is this clever, amusing comment? Are you sure you’re on the right site?

I get the joke, and certainly not all self-help books are good, but also people are unique and at different places in their lives. With just a little introspection one can probably tell which book would be better for them. Maybe they say yes too much and would benefit from learning how and when to say no; or they say no to everything and would benefit from learning to embrace new experiences.

Or, you know, pick one up and thumb through a few pages.
