This is my life.

I’m familiar with the saying you site.

But “a beaver” implies one beaver; “beavers” would imply multiple beavers were responsible.

a beaver

So, like the same beaver both times?

Just saw a friend that is currently at Uni and asked them how they do it now (draw and dimension all at the same time). Small victories.

Removes 4 cm of paper between them; touché.

“well, have you tried like not thinking or learning everything you want to know?”

Speaks volumes.

I’ve been criticized for that, lots of people say “use the mouse, it’s better”. I say “how is it better?”. They say “it just is”.

The truth is that they can’t do the keyboard shortcuts and are jealous.

My voting location has paper ballots counted by scanners (it’s not practical or accurate/reliable to count that number of ballots by human hand).

If there’s a question, just rescan the ballots. Nothing’s perfect, but this (IMHO) is about as good as it gets.

The only change I would make is to have ranked choice voting.

My Drs office wouldn’t accept a request over the phone or email. Had to be fax.

Because, apparently, there is some magic fairy that verifies it is me sending the request from the fax machine on my end (i.e. it’s not possible for someone else to send a request for my medical records pretending to be me). 'cause you know “fax security” wouldn’t allow that. /S

In university I took CAD and was chastised for drawing and dimensioning items at the same time. To me, it makes more sense to draw a circle and tell the CAD system that it’s 10 mm in one fail swoop than to do it the way I was told to (draw it by “hand” approximately 10 mm then come back later and actually size it to 10 mm).

I asked why their way was better and got the answer I expected (just do it that way) :-( ).

Hong Kong Phooey (number one super guy)!

I think know you are an idiot.

anti-help-anyone segment of our society

This is the biggest problem (IMHO) to getting government to assist anyone that is not already rich. The rich get help - i.e. which gets a special tax break:

1. Walmart opening a new store (and driving all the little people out of business)?
2. The little business owner who hires 2-5 employees?

The haves scream they are being “robbed” if you suggest taking any of “their tax dollars” to help the have-nots. It’s not “their tax dollars”, it’s “our tax dollars”.

Peacocks are what you need my friend. You’ll think ducks are very quiet quite soon.
