  • Every little thing I buy, within a couple weeks is followed by an email asking me to leave a review. For EVERYTHING! WTF do they do with their billions of reviews?

  • It’s also probably some Product Manager’s OKR to get some engagement metric every quarter.

  • What is a typical spelling mistake you make?

    Jump

  • More a typo than a spelling mistake but if a word ends in ‘th’, my brain cannot stop adding an ‘e’.

    • withe
    • bothe
    • mythe

  • Which word do you dislike most?

    Jump

  • Penultimate. Anyone writing about or reviewing the second last of anything uses it in their first breath like their English degree depends on it.

  • Prestidigitation

  • All right music fans, what's your favorite band/musician and how many times have you seen them live?

  • If there was any TV show that was cancelled or cut short that you could see the planned continuation/ending of, which would you choose?

  • Thumbs up is such a common emoji but almost nobody gives IRL thumbs up anymore.

  • Western Canada. I was thinking maybe it’s like a soda vs pop thing. Or just wildly isolated to my own experience. Just showerthinking.

  • That might be true, or something local. I posted that this morning then got too busy to check in. I probably should have made it less about “positive/negative” and more about “it’s cool vs not cool” Here is my way too late OP explanation:

    I go to a lot of sports events, hockey mostly. Since the 90s my friends and I play a little game. Count the people who give a #1 finger on the jumbotron vs point at their jersey vs thumbs up. Collectively, we have decided that ”kids today” don’t use thumbs up as much as in the past. I also noticed “Let’s go!” Is the cheer these days.

    Sorry for oversimplifying my shower thought.

  • Changing coffee beans: What do you do when there aren't enough beans to make a final brew?

    Jump

  • I call it my zombie blend. I have a mason jar that I add a little to each time I switch, then when I have enough to do a cold brew I use it for that. I find cold brew to be more forgiving with stale beans.

    Later generations will have less attachment to how things were when they grew up because everything changes a lot faster.
