toy_boat_toy_boat@lemmy.worldOPto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•what's the world record for beatboxing while using a living bird's head as an instrument?English2·2 months agointernet is fun. and i really don’t know what i’m replying to.
it was covid lockdown. i don’t think i was the only one who skipped the odd laundry day.
this was a whole different thing, though. i’d already lived here (i’m still in the same place) for three years without any issues. i’m not neurotic, but i do try to keep my place clean.
or at least i thought i did…
these roaches taught me so much. to this day, i still keep my organic waste in a bag in my freezer. i got rid of my coffee machine and switched to instant - explaining why would probably make you sick. i never leave dishes to “soak” any more.
i’m telling you, it got bad. really bad. i talked to the super, and she said that someone moved in who ‘was from a different part of the world and is used to roaches’. like, what? it got to the point where i always had a fly swatter in one had and a bottle of windex in the other. i was killing 20-30 by hand every night. they weren’t coming over for food; they were so bad at the other apartment that they were coming there to scope a new place to live.
i’ve got to say that life is a lot easier these days as a linux evangelist now that valve is changing gaming in such a monumental way. the memes are real: he really is a saviour.
(and i’m more of a spaceballs guy)
not to the roaches… i learned that the hard way a few years ago.
during covid, i left a couple of cases of empty bottles on my kitchen floor and didn’t think anything of them for a month or so. that’s how i found out my neighbors had cleanliness issues, and the roaches found out they had a new place next door to terrorize. horrible experience - don’t keep your empties in your apartment.
bring back geocities!
aww, come on, i really liked wearing that hat

is that the “red wave” they’ve been warning us about?
SOMETIMES A CHECKMATE IS JUST SO FUCKING POETIC.
Butters: weiners out!
now it’s reposting it all over the place. honey, i think we should call the vet.
there’s simply no way to address this issue without coming off as either a luddite or a loon. i’ll leave it at that, lest i start honking
