It looks like Dogbert and the designers of Windows and MacOS might have similar design philosophies. :-)

Dilbert Comic - March 24, 2015


Fortunately, Puppy Linux was not designed by someone like Dogbert. :-)

But perhaps someone should create a Dogbert Linux just for laughs. :-)

An amusing random text generator I stumbled across today:

New-Age Bullsh*t Generator

Happily, the code for that is free, libre, and open source, and available on GitHub. :-)

Fixing the Broken Wings of Maxi Pads
Friday, August 21st, 2015

With a Genuinely Practical Tip

The maxi pad "wings" idea is good in theory. But all too frequently, the wings - and all h*ll - break loose. I'll leave it to your imagination what that results in.

So, I finally got tired of that design flaw, and took a drastic measure to correct it. Instead of just one maxi pad - I decided to use two.

I applied the first one the normal way. Then, to compensate for the first one's inadequate wings, I laid the second one horizontally at a right angle across the first one, aligned with where the first one's wings were.

Then, to secure the second one in position, I simply folded each end of the second one down and around, and attached it to itself. This arrangement holds itself in position far more securely than any flimsy wings.


Let us all have a moment of silence for all the undergarments that could not be saved, simply due to my failure to even think of this idea for so many years.


And, let's have a moment of non-silence, too, in the form of this video (which is not by me, but by this incredibly talented YouTuber):

A Dramatic Reading...

Note: It's more amusing you don't read the scrolling transcript.

Also, if you don't like dark humor or other dark/dramatic things, you probably shouldn't watch it, nor most of that guy's other videos.

Today, out of the blue, it occurred to me to finally post a link to one of my favorite web comics: Buttersafe

I just wanted to post something besides mostly just Puppy-related stuff.

However, in an odd coincidence, today's comic just happens to feature a puppy. :-)

Here's an apparently little-known funny video, which I first saw in 2004 or 2005, and rediscovered years later on YouTube:

It currently only has 1,871 views on YouTube.

Tomorrow (Tuesday, Nov. 4) will be Election Day here in the United States.

If you haven't considered an alternative candidate, you're missing out. Why not consider this guy, or this guy?
