SQL? Toy?

Haha…fair enough. Honestly though, I suspect anything above free would have worked. Some people have absolutely no respect for other people’s time. Especially since I don’t “fix computers” for a living.

The difference between Gen X and Millennials is that at around age 35 (circa 2009) I started telling people, who were almost always friends of friends who wouldn’t actually hang out with me normally, that I charge $100 an hour. Millennials still do it for free…

Separate Tuner, Cassette Deck, Amplifier, CD player, Equalizer, and Turntable?

I am old enough and if that system were in good shape I would set it up in my living room right now. Would probably leave the cassette deck and CD player in storage though.

Why is your butter in the fridge? Do you like holes in your toast with 3 globs of cold unmelted butter on the surviving toast surface?

When I was younger a person who I admired said:

“I always carry some extra money in my wallet for when someone needy asks. It’s not my place to decide if this person needs help or not. Maybe they will use the money for drugs, maybe they need the money for clothes for their children. When I die and get to the pearly gates, I don’t want to find out that I had the opportunity to help someone who needed help and I didn’t help them because I assumed they would spend the money on drugs. Maybe they will spend the money on drugs, but that’s not for me to know right now.”

I thought that was some of the most noble shit my early 20’s ass had ever heard.

Fast-forward a few years to me and my new wife honeymooning in…San Francisco. My noble naive ass brought a wallet full of cash with me so I could help people in need. Nothing terrible happened, but I soon ran out of cash and we decided to start handing out food. NOBODY WANTED THE FOOD. They just wanted the money. I would offer food, and they would just say “do you have any money?”

Anyway, nowadays I just say “sorry bro, I don’t carry cash”.
