Here's hoping this is the last time in my life I have to gaze upon this grotesque misshapen oompa loompa.

Overcame my anxiety and asked a pretty girl out. We're going out for drinks tomorrow night 😁

True enough. Say what you will about the 'loompas, they lift.

And had I not made the comment it would have been the work of minutes for someone to generate a thousand like it to drum up support.

Let's not pretend anonymous internet comments have any actual bearing here. I'm just having fun coming up with new terms for this festering troglodyte.

Some personal favorites I have used or heard used lately :

"Der er ingen ko på isen" - "there is no cow on the ice" meaning that nothing is wrong after all

"Lave dobbeltkonfekt" - "making double confection" meaning making more work for yourself for no reason

"Gøre ham en bjørnetjeneste" - "doing him a bear's favor" - a well intended deed that makes things worse in the long run

I was under general anesthesia three times in my childhood due to arriving into this world only partially assembled.

The first time I was sedated with ether (which I believe is not in use anymore) and only remember a nurse forcing the mask over my face before waking up to the sound of my father snoring next to me. I was violently ill for the next several days, but from what I hear I got off light compared to others.

For the next two I was given some kind of euphoric stimulant (via suppository, go figure) to calm me, but from what I've been told it instead made me hallucinate that I was driving a race car and did so all the way to the operating theatre much to everyone's amusement. I'm happy that I remember none of this and that it was before smart phones or I'd probably be on YouTube forever. 😅

Oh I agree wholeheartedly. But every time I see his ghoulish rictus of a face it reminds me that for four miserable years the democratically elected* leader of the largest economy in the world was a philandering child rapist. One who is only now facing the slightest possibility of consequence for a tiny fraction of his crimes because he engaged in honest to god high treason. Nothing against ugly dudes. You're cool.

*kind of

All my former doomscrolling time now goes into working out, practicing French on Duolingo and going to events to meet people. So far so great!

Thank you!

Enjoying the hell out of Beat Saber after sleeping on it for way too long. It almost feels like self-improvement as well, the higher difficulties are a workout and a half and with the massive amounts of custom songs available it's not likely to get boring anytime soon.

I do wish it wasn't mandatory to speed up the songs to get on the leaderboards, none of these tracks are improved by being played at whatever multiplier they use.
