Some older folks do that. They print them out to file away or draft their responses (that they then later type and send back). I don’t think it’s as common as it used to be, though.

A reference to Break Stuff by Limp Bizkit. (Notice the name of the doctor in the first panel.)

What the hell.

I would like to think I’m a decent developer. I know what I’m talking about when it comes to code.

I do not know what I’m talking about in other fields. So I don’t speak like I know what I’m talking about there.

Hopefully PG learned this skill in the last 20 or so years.

It blows my mind when people do that.

“Hey, the way that you styled yourself makes me not want to have sex with you.”

“Uhhh… Cool?”

When Martha from accounting last asked me what my plans were for that night, I told her I was going to slap my chicken.

She won’t look me in the eye any more.

Because my life isn’t as together as Pharrell Williams’s, and my movie has a soundtrack by Papa Roach and is entitled Cut My Life into Pieces.

The first part would have tipped me off if I didn’t have multiple customers compare me to Nazi concentration camp workers at my last job.

I was trying to help them get their assigned device to them, so they could do their job… Lots of them didn’t like that their ticketing system went digital.

My dear Appalachia. So many poor people because of rich business owners buying the land rights and exploiting the laborers because of the coal.

That is definitely better than it was before.

It would have been far better to just have serviceable dumb TVs with small smart sticks, but I suppose that doesn’t extract enough money for these poor destitute CEOs.

Wouldn’t be so bad if there was no rest. I feel like we’re expected to always be doing something. How can you afford to pay the bills and keep a minimum of cleanliness, like clean clothing and a pest-free domicile, otherwise?

Or maybe I’m biased because I am so close to experiencing caregiver burnout.

Oh well at least I got pockets of 10-15 minutes to zone out before getting back to it.

What method of payment do they accept?

When I was getting my diagnosis my doc asked me “did you do the assessment I sent you?”

Uh… I forgot and you first asked me when I didn’t have a way to take a note. Sorry. :(

That is an interesting bug. So it looks like the linked comment belongs to a post on lemmy.world. but if I go to the post with the same ID on lemm.ee (NSFW) https://lemm.ee/ then “post/18776512” which is the instance you’re on, then it is indeed porn.

$25, $15 without the cereal.

This is… Certainly something.

I have to prepare a little note card with bullet points on what I want to say/accomplish on my call. Bonus because I can also take any notes on the call if needed. It’s helped me a lot, because a lot of my anxiety about calling comes from forgetting why I was calling in the first place.

It is so frustrating. Especially when you did your research but the information is out of date. Widget2000 rev1 was fine but Widget2000 rev2 requires an account.

Or it doesn’t require an account but your options are “yes” or “ask again later.” So all of your searches say it’s fine. But if my experience is degraded for no good reason just because I don’t want an account, that is a weak win at best.

Just an FYI, that usage of “spastic” is considered an ableist slur. You can use “erratic” in its place.
