You should look into airless / tubeless tires. I am thinking about getting some for my son's bike. They cost more, but will undoubtedly pay for themselves in the long run. The fact that we're not utilizing this technology for automobiles pisses me off.

Spoiler for PICS:

This morning a teacher asked me to help him with a program he needed to get running. Some old Bingo program that he uses 1 time every year for a co-worker christmas gathering.

Turns out it ran in MS-DOS! Apparently there used to be an old computer somewhere that the previous IT guy would dig out for him every year. I just installed DOSBox on a Windows 10 computer instead and mounted everything so all the teacher has to do is click a desktop shortcut

What a moron.

If I've got an excellent program that I'm used to, then I'm also really difficult to move over to something more modern.

I really hope that this old graphics program I've got called Paint Shop 8 will work when I find a way to get it installed on my disc-drive free Windows 10 laptop. It's an XP era program, but I like using it much more than Photoshop and other similar programs.

The idiot isn't even used to it. Didn't even know they were using DOS.

I got really accustomed to using a DOS point of sale system at an old job, my coworkers always complained about it but imo it's very intuitive.

Just say spoon instead of McFlurry spoon. Nobody wants to be associated with fast food.

Too punk to ignore a little **** from your parents?

but I need to say it with tact

Just tell your parents that they're fascists and go listen to The Used in your room.
