You ever buy an article of clothing that turned out to be such a mistake you considered never wearing it again?

That feeling when you've been away from work for 3 days and you're catching up on the team slack, and you hit that "55 replies" thread.

This is what I remember my dad's razor blades coming in when I was a kid... these fancy metal and plastic dispensers with a used blade "bank" on the bottom. They weren't refillable, you just threw them away with the used blades safely stored. This dispenser comes with 15 blades.

Modern blades come individually wrapped in waxed paper, which allows them to be stored in a tiny card or plastic box (with a slot for used blades in the back) just 5 at a time.

I just realized (thanks to the comic The Devil's Panties, which is not about Satanic underwear) that this hand gesture doesn't mean "telephone" to at least a whole generation.

That feeling when you trial an online app, it doesn't meet your needs, but the sales guy won't quit pestering you, and you come right out and tell him your spreadsheet does a better job than their app.

Wondering if I'll recognize my name when they call it.

Life hack: when the hotel curtains won't fully close and the big sign lights are shining through the crack...

Really, Google? You can't figure that on our on your own?

This 3-record compilation of 50's and 60's rock'n'roll from 1975 is one of the earliest records I remember listening to as a kid. I found a copy of it, and man it's such a feeling.
There are two versions with slightly different songs, but I remember it so well I can identify which my mom had. My mom was 27 when this was released... I was 7. I had never realized she bought this after I was born.

It's all finally come together. My brother's Christmas gift arrived at the same time as my turntable... this was a defining record of my highschool years.

There's no such thing as rinsing too much when it comes to hardware store gravel in an aquarium.

Got the soil for my new planted aquarium all smoothed out, ready for the gravel. Waaait a minute....

Having trouble finding any interpretation of this that I can agree with.

Train making me uncomfortable this morning.

A little something @vampyric did for me...

Would just like you to know, I like cats. Dogs are good, too, but here's my cat...

My sister-in-law puts weird things in my Christmas stocking.

Who uses copper for a kitchen sink drainpipe? And brazes it to the traditional drainpipe? Which needs replaced.
