... Store was out of tortilla chips, but had plenty of salsa. About to attempt eating salsa with Doritos. Gaia help me.
You won't regret it.
I did not regret it! The powderiness was a little weird with the salsa but not bad.
Also, how can anyone stand doritos and salsa? Doritos are soft and porous, they just get all floppy and gross when you dip them in anything.

As long as we dont have to call an intervention to any attempt at hoarding trash....
She should apply as a librarian.
Don't libraries tend to sell off their books?
My local library had these nice yard sales out on the lawn. It seemed a little strange to buy something that was previously loaned out for free, but it was a way to donate to the library and help adopt doomed books.
I wish there was an easy way to check if a book has been scanned and uploaded online before you get rid of it. I don't have a problem with throwing away books but I understand why some people have such a visceral reaction to it - there are so many gaps in history we could fill if just one more person had kept one book on some mundane subject and we found it today. That's why the internet is great - if a book is available publicly online there's no obligation to keep hard copies (though obviously anyone who still wants to should).
This! Though it doesn't *have* to be online for me to feel better, as long as it's preserved somewhere. Library of Congress digital archives would be ideal. It can live with the Tweets (and, I presume, in a west-coast backup).
You assume the internet is going to last.
In a world where the internet has been brought down we would enter a dark age more complete than we could imagine at the moment. Many of our books don't even reach print, instead remaining online.
I do keep my Boy Scout Handbook, heh. Despite my *various* issues with the organization. But I also have a solar+crank powered radio which I can charge my phone off of, so the books on there are available until equipment failure. Which, yeah, planned obsolescence will fuck us hard.
I wonder what options there might be for a local copy of Wikipedia, selecting survival and technology articles, to fit on a 64GB SD card.
My WTF was more a Win but due to the chances of me winning these things it was actually a WTF HOW! moment.
I won my first Prerelease of a CCG at a gamestore tonight. I have never even come in the top 10 in a 10 player game, don't ask me how but that happened once. Got me a nice big Attack on Titan Playmat for the cardgame we played but due to work I will never be able to actually get into so now its a mouse pad...
CCG - Wies Schwars.
Nice! Congratulations on the mouse pad
I wasn't going to add a wtf but... It's crazy how I used to drink wine and liquor, never beer, but now that I'm so used to drinking beer, I'm having a *lot* of trouble not going too far with wine. The sweetness makes it even worse in the morning. I feel really great today because I just went to sleep instead, and I really needed that.
(Beer is significantly much more expensive for the alcohol content though, is the reason)
