FWIW, the sound they are recreating is a conversation held near the bag not the bag itself crinkling.

Irs early and I haven’t had coffee yet. I had to look it up.

When asked how I would like it prepared, I like:

“still pissed off”

I have a friend that goes with:

“knock off the horns and wipe its butt”

Do you smell popcorn?

I miss the old internet. Before big capital figured out how stupid we are.

Or so when people ask you what it is for you can retell the story

When they were still being persecuted by the Romans for their religion, they held Christmas during Saturnalia to blend in.

Also, I’m pretty sure I remember seeing that Tolkien had Frodo destroy the ring on the day believed to be the birth of Christ.

You mean Sniffy McNosecandy didn’t win the hearts and minds of the local simpletons with their free healthcare and rule of law?

I wonder what that would look like if you could subtract the bots?

I always think of The Big Lebowski as a Fletch remake.

Exactly how we did it too. We created the editor/assembler that peeked to see what was there and display it in Assembly, Hexadecimal, and ASCII.

You could edit whichever version you wanted and it would Poke it into RAM.

You could also save swaths to a file.

I was trying to use language that would give the average nontechnical person an idea of the important aspects.

If the average person had Alberta tar sand based “oil” on one hand and technically correct tar on the other, I bet they couldn’t give a shit which was which.

This is exactly right. Most Canadian crude is actually tar. They have to use lighter grades of oil to dilute it to even be able to pump it.

If they cut us off, we can get more from Venezuela or the price of asphalt goes up.

Our cars, planes, trains, chemical plants, and power stations continue just fine.

This is it exactly. Before magnetic tape, Comedians told the same jokes For generations.

Modern comedians act like they’re the first people to come up with jokes because of the first people to record them.

What?!? It was always just a meme?!?

I thought it was a reference I didn’t get because I’m an old.

So you are down with someone breaking into your home and taking whatever they want including sexual liberties?

You are a better Christian than me.

How about don’t break into someone’s house?

There is a thing called the “Midwestern I Don’t Know“.

When a Midwesterner says “I Don’t Know“ it really means, “I Know, But I’m Not going to Tell You”

It’s not joguor?

Who do you think invents the drugs?
