I'm meant to be in the office today but I'm not sure if it's a good idea with 100% humidity and 32 degrees

I have taken possession of a MacBook Pro for work purposes (I'm going to be overseeing the integration of MacOS into our corporate environment).

I have given Apple and their OSes so much shit over the years it's quite funny that this task has fallen on me. I might need to buy a bunch of leather & wooden bracelets and fashion my hair into a manbun. I'm surprised it let me login to it without a full sleeve tattoo.

Enjoy. My colleagues mostly have macs age they love that they get excluded or left to last for any restrictions. I hate windows but macs are more annoying to do stuff with. (Have both)

I've gotta buy jeans for the man today and his only stipulation is that they not be tight so they can accommodate his extra large shlong and crew. Jesus Christ. How do I convey that to the salesperson while keeping a straight face? "Scuse do they have ample roomage for the man junk cos i got measurements for everything else"?

may I suggest go one size up and get a belt

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. He lost 20kg so his old jeans look too baggy now. That's the reason I'm buying new ones.
