inOur promotion AI thinks my cat deserves a senior role
Oh man, that is the whole job description right there. My friend's cat manages her home office with the same two moves. He'll just plop down on the keyboard right as she's trying to send an email. Then he gives that slow blink stare if you dare to move him, like you're the one interrupting very important work. It's a leadership style built entirely on causing problems and then looking disappointed in you for noticing.

inVent: My aunt's laminate floor questions during dinner
Last Thanksgiving, my cousin brought tile swatches to the table. She laid them out next to the mashed potatoes and asked for opinions on grout color. We couldn't even enjoy the pie without discussing water resistance. It's like family time turns into a free design meeting.

inVent: My binge hack is skipping musical episodes. It keeps the pace up and I enjoy the show more!
I get wanting to keep the pace up, but skipping the musical episode in Buffy cuts out important character growth. Those songs aren't just filler, they show how the characters really feel when they can't say it out loud. My first watch, I almost skipped it, but I'm glad I didn't because it made the season's end make so much more sense. For example, Tara's song hints at problems with Willow that become big plot points later on.

inMy dry-aged ribeye keeps developing off flavors.
Wait, you're dry aging ribeye at home? That's pretty brave. I've heard so many horror stories about home setups going wrong. If you're getting weird tastes, something in your fridge environment is probably off. I wouldn't risk it with a good cut of meat like that.

inI swear, the delays on 'The Walking Dead' issues back in the day tried my soul...
Actually, the wait between Cerebus issues got way longer than a year near the end, lol. I think the gap between #186 and #187 was almost two years.
