**THAT ISN'T FUNNY!**

@boomzilla said in The Official Funny Stuff Thread™:
I can't tell you how mercilessly I've mocked my father in law for liking his steaks well done. Should be a crime.
I couldn't agree more. My fiancee's father has a saying about well done steaks:
"It's the cows that are supposed to do the chewing, not us!"
He's a pretty cool guy, he keeps his own livestock (cows, sheep, chickens, pigs) and sends them off to slaughter when they're ready. They've got freezers in their garage for keeping all the meat. It's the best meat I've ever had. It's so much better than anything you can get from the supermarket, the difference in quality is ridiculous!
-
@DoctorJones Strictly, it depends on whether you've got prime steaks or a cheaper cut. The prime stuff should hardly need cooking at all; just show it a picture of a cooker and you're done. The cheaper cuts might need a slow braise with onions.

Exactly!
Yes, I'm specifically talking about prime cut steaks. You've made me hungry now, and it's over 2 hours until lunch time! :-(

ERMAHGERD my father-in-law too! I would have expected a cow farmer to know more about cow meat, but country people, amiright?

@da-Doctah I had to check the forecast in Walmart today and all I could think of was how many people thought I was looking for Pokemon...
-
@anotherusername Think of it as evolution[1] in action.
[1] no pokemon pun intended. No, I meant it Nivenlike.

Many Dutch consider the law “Insulting the Majesty” to be an antiquated relic that should be scrapped, but it has never featured high on the country’s political agenda.
The crime carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a fine of 20,000 euros.
If it's an antiquated crime, the fine should be in Guilders or whatever the Dutch used to use.

TIL a new verbing, cartoon.
Def: To slip and fall in such wildly splendid manner that it looks like a cartoon character slipping on a banana peel.
Example usage: Due to a spill on the floor, I was going to cartoon.

I discovered this easter egg today.
Task manager when a regular process is highlighted:
Task manager when explorer.exe is highlighted (I checked this for every other active process on the system):
Good on microsoft for automating common user workflows, I guess.
-
@bb36e If you think restarting Explorer is a common workflow, you must've just migrated off of Windows 95.
-
@FrostCat seems like Microsoft thought it's common

Dear Kurt: I am a 48 year-old progressive, unionized fifth grade teacher who lives alone with her three beloved and diverse kitties, Fluffums, Ticklebunny and Hillary.

@bb36e said in The Official Funny Stuff Thread™:

So common nobody knows about it?
Actually, a quick Google says it was introduced in Windows 8, where it was a context menu item.
Thinking about it, the only practical reason I can come up with is for people who have buggy shell extensions or are developing shell extensions.

Or maybe they just renamed the button since you cannot kill explorer.exe anyway?

Who would unionize her? Why was she ionized in the first place? So many questions.
-
@anotherusername Way to set your kids up for years of expensive therapy.

@Karla oh, come now. I expected you to think that was a great idea.

It's just formal acknowledge of the internal workings since eons. Killing the explorer process restarted it.

-
@Luhmann except when it didn't and you had to manually tell it to run explorer.exe.

@anotherusername
And I haven't seen that since 95

Oh sorry, missed capitalization. I do NT all the time on my Win7 box. ;P

@Luhmann I've had it happen on win7 and 8.1. I don't remember if I've run into it on windows 10, so I'll assume it did, to strengthen my argument.

euh rrrright!
Only if I can complain that my Win7 laptop got silently upgraded to Win10 ... I tell you, the only good thing about this is that it also upgrade all the hardware.

@anotherusername It's funny.
I suspect I know some adults whose parents probably did that. It isn't pretty. Kid's should feel safe and secure at home (my childhood was pretty dysfunctional).
With adults, I'm more, "try to be kind; if you can't be kind, be funny."
With my husband and my big kids I will warn them I am just saying this for the lols so they know not to take it seriously.
He used to tease them and I always worried about it more than they did. I was teased a decent amount too.
I also do my best to not let my emotions get the best of me when disciplining (calm, assertive*). The job is to get them to understand (rules, boundaries, and limitations*) not make them feel bad.
** References to the dog whisperer.
Sorry to take this in an unfunny direction.
