– the compact disk turned 50 years old today, wtf is time
– hot tipsy topic: what is the best way to maintain the balance of stacked objects and why is it “just stack more things on top to either correct for imbalance or to press the stack into some kind of ceiling and keep everything in place using pressure”
– at what point is it acceptable to tell someone to “get the bananas out of their ears” and is the inevitable confusion worth referencing a brick joke from an NES game?
