Me too. And I say them on the World Wide Web, which is quicker to say than the WWW.

Psychological horror, if I remember my childhood correctly.

And yet somebody nailed it. Apparently, it was dead on for that one person who knew the song.

Depends on the festival, but in general, sure. If there are girls there (and they are not behind velvet ropes, barricades or up on stages), you probably have a chance of meeting them. Then what?

Regardless, the reason for going to a festival is to attend the festival itself and presumably have fun. Going only “to meet girls” is missing the point and setting yourself up for disappointment (and probably coming off a little creepy in the process). If you don’t like festivals, you can meet girls in far less expensive and noisy places, too.

ForgeJo has been a joy to use over the past few months for me. No regrets.

Ah. For those from the Before Times, Versions 1 through 6 were absolutely amazing. Version 7 included VC-inspired “improvements” that set off early-warning alarms, and Version 8 is the Stephen Miller of password managers.

There is currently an amazing amount of top-quality, open source, design and development software: Blender, Godot, Inkscape and Krita, for instance.

Is this a joke? 1Password’s switch from “lifetime license with local vaults” to “Fuck you/pay me subscription-based, cloud-only vaults” is the poster child for enshittified software. Version 8 is the main reason Bitwarden/KeepPass/VaultWarden are so popular now.

Username … checks out?

Almost four decades here (yes, before the Web), the best I could come up with was “‘Bout to find out.”

I mean, Christians eat soup, too.

It just comes from cans instead of waiters.

Terminator 2 is probably the easiest answer.

Helter Skelter?

Some of us skipped Digg and came straight from SomethingAwful.

Nobody said you can’t be beaten to a quivering, mass of mutilated organs and shattered bones. You just won’t have death to release you from the pain.

I don’t know whether this is serious or comically self-aware, but either way, this is a great take.

Both my Gen-X self and my Gen-Alpha kid are amused, though neither of us knows what the other finds funny.

True enough. It seems I blew the assignment, as most of my examples are more fantasy-based than historically accurate. Still fun shows, though.

To be fair, I only saw a few episodes of the first season and had no expectations or notions when I stumbled on it; it seemed fine for what it was.

The other shows I mentioned, though, are actually favorites in our house.

For relatively recent US comedies, Season 2 of Miracle Workers, Galavant, and My Lady Jane were all pretty good. Also, Disenchanted was a pretty good animated series.

… And they are A-ok with that.
