    Oh my goodness, you’re totally right! I knew that from watching shows from over there but I hadn’t made the connection at the time. Maybe I remembered it subconsciously somehow and that’s why I thought it was so funny. Who knows, lol. I’m glad somebody else found it funny, too.

    Cackaroni and mingees got me giggling, too. Nice work!

    Great, now I keep giggling uncontrollably at the thought of “cacaroni and mheese!”

    I know that’s three words, and also probably isn’t objectively that funny…but, in my defense, my chronic pain bullshit is acting up to crazy levels and I haven’t been able to sleep in at least a couple days. Also, I’m a childish nincompoop.

    ANYWAY, thank you for the entertainment, Srack_Thovel!







  • I think it’s likely someone would still buy it, especially since it’s a ThinkPad. I see people on computer nerd forums go crazy over happily buying old ThinkPads, although I think some models are more popular than others. If nothing else, it’s useful for parts!

    Maybe it would be worth a try to post in a fitting community with more info about the model and stuff and ask for the opinion of people who are more knowledgeable. You could also try searching the sold listings on eBay for your model to see how well they’re selling, how often, and for how much.

    The only reason I know/knew is because I googled it way back when, ha!

    IIRC, it had something to do with how the software formatted comments. If you just used regular spaces to try and line the triangles up, it wouldn’t work, because the formatting would ignore any spaces at the beginning of the comment. So you had to use a different kind of invisible character, one it wouldn’t ignore and get rid of, by using an alt key + number code that’s slipping my mind because I’m not in front of a keyboard to use the ol’ muscle memory.
    (Although I rarely ever actually posted or commented. I took ‘lurk moar’ very seriously.)

    A lot like how on here or Reddit when people try to do the shruggy guy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but because of the way the formatting works they get ¯_(ツ)_/¯ since they don’t know enough to figure out how to make it display the way they want

    … I’m sleep deprived, can you tell? Lmao

    I’m glad you’re around, Alyaza! I’m bummed that cohost is shutting down, too, but I’m not surprised. Your website looks good, I like it!

    My week has been pretty shitty, as usual. I’m really sick of this awful, useless brain and body I’m stuck with and the horrible, unhealthy environment I’m stuck in. I wish humane euthanization was an option. But, it’s not. I don’t want some poor, innocent person to have to find a body and deal with the trauma of it; that wouldn’t be fair to them. So I’m stuck. Life is hell and I’m tired. Tired of being useless and miserable and broken. Bleh. There’s so much more I want to get out, but my poo brain won’t turn it into words.

    I wish the world was better and so many undeserving people weren’t suffering. I hope things get better for everyone here who are having difficult times and I wish I was able to respond to everyone directly.
