This sounds like a neat idea. I wonder if they’ve factored accessibility into it. Controlling it via remote is probably out, but assuming they actually took the time to code and label things properly, using the app could work. I hope they did take the time, because Carin loves the show and trust me guys, …

You Have Nice Stuff, But You Have Too Much Of It
Reminds me of our movers. “We thought this was just going to be a standard job where we drive the truck up to the client’s old apartment, take a look around, and then drive to the new place,” said mover Alexander Manginis, adding that the man who had hired them had given no indication that …

I Have NO Good Title For This, Obviously
Today in Mad Libs sounding headlines: Naked Auschwitz demonstrators who killed sheep convicted If you’re staring at that and thinking to yourself well, surely the rest of the story will make some sense out of this for me, I’m afraid I’ve got some bad news. Twelve people who stripped naked in front of the Nazi …

I wasn’t alive in 1962, so I have no idea whether this computerized shopping assistant was considered amazing at the time. But sitting here in 2018, it seems like quite a bit of rigamarole to go through just to get a few gift ideas. I always have at least a person or two on my …
Now What?
My therapist told me to write letters to the people I hate and then burn them. I did that. But now I don’t know what to do with all the letters.

Salvation Army Christmas Kettles Are Starting To Take Plastic
This is kind of nice. I rarely have cash on me anymore, and when I do happen to have loose change it goes into a jar so that eventually I can take it to the bank and transform it into not cash I can later use to buy things electronically. It’ll be good to not …

If Life Gives You Lemons, Make Sure They Aren’t A Dish Soap Ingredient Before You Go Making That Lemonade
And now, a reminder that we can’t blame modern technology and cable news for all of the world’s ills because people have always been kind of dumb. In 1982, the Maryland Poison Center reported almost 80 cases of people who had suffered nausea and diarrhea after drinking Sunlight dishwashing liquid. They had received free bottles …
