Not Knowing What To Call Something

Hey man, you know when you have to like... do that thing? "What do you mean?" I dont know, like, that thing we do. "Do you speak English?", Feb 19, 2020

This is more of a silly post compared to last time, but at the same time it's a serious post. Are humans just stupid? Or do our languages just lack the words to describe something sometimes.

Teachers Get No Respect

*Insert Rodney Dangerfield reference* - but seriously, the way some teachers get treated is absolutely despicable., Feb 17, 2020

Ever look at your old code, and think: what the actual ****?, Feb 10, 2020

I've been programming for ~5 years now, and sometimes I like to go back to old projects.
