He was Zoltan from Dude, Where’s my Car. Plus, he hosted Talk Soup. My pop culture knowledge peaked 25 years ago, so that’s all that I can contribute.

Everyday Carry. What essentials do you carry on a daily basis?@sopuli.xyz•How to revive my Douk-Douk?English
5·2 years agoI’ve had good luck with Brasso and an old piece of t-shirt. A bit less abrasive than sandpaper, but it should still be able to remove the rust. The blade print will not be unscathed. My douk-douk was definitely prettier before I started mistreating it. Rinse it off when you’re done, oil up the blade, move on.

1·2 years agoI wouldn’t try it, myself. This was a factory swap. The more common 91mm model with the corkscrew is the Spartan. I was in a youth organization at the time that frowned on corkscrews because apparently children shouldn’t be drinking wine.

3·2 years agoNo problem. Almost identical to the one that started the thread, except the corkscrew got swapped out for a phillips-head screwdriver.

3·2 years agoYellow scales are a great way to go!
I have a Tinker redone in yellow on my keychain and finding my keys has become way less difficult. I’ve had the knife for three decades and it didn’t truly become my EDC until I rescaled it.
I’m sure it differs from person to person, but a significant portion (possibly a majority) of the people at my law school seemed to be there because they didn’t have any other ideas about what to do with their undergraduate degree. Easy access to ruinous student loan debt can seriously warp a person’s decisionmaking process.
I’m a lawyer with a background in business! There are a lot of lawyers with interesting wetware since the initial filters on the profession are almost entirely test-based and the tests don’t target things like emotional maturity, empathy, or interpersonal interactions.

Neurodivergence@beehaw.org•DAE dislike the term "neurodivergent" as applied to ADHD?English
1·3 years agoHonestly, I liked the term a lot when I heard it. With competition like ‘learning disability’ and ‘a bit on the spectrum’, it was like a breath of fresh air. If it makes people who don’t have ADHD less likely to bully kids at school, then it may be worth the inaccuracy.
Plus, it hits the point that you can’t make broad assumptions about people with ADHD. Some people need medication/ therapy. Some people have coping strategies that reduce or eliminate the need for either. A lot of people are still trying to figure things out.

Then Friday night shows up.
