Everywhere I am there is a guy running a leaf blower. At my house, leaf blowers everywhere all day long. At work, of course, leaf blowers blowing dirt and allergens into the air.

Maybe! There’s kind of a genre of jokes where the setup is quite long but the punchline is just a bad pun. The most extreme example is Nate the Snake. I was kind of going for that feeling, but didn’t go overboard.
I’d be interested to see how you think it could be made shorter. Gotta get the key points across - husband refuses to shower and also refuses to explain what’s happening.
Did you entirely rewrite the application and then release the update with the update log: “* Stability improvements related to message sending.” ???
Edit: to cancel out the negative sentiment, good job. I personally don’t really interact with the app enough to notice that it’s changed, but if it needed to be done and you did it right, I commend you! Just seems a bit weird that the “what’s new” message is so bland. Is it even for the most recent version? The release on GitHub has a completely different changelog.
I’m not sure if this is the right community for this question, but it says “no stupid question” so here goes. I’m an Israeli who now lives in the US, but I am considering permanently residing in the US or elsewhere (perhaps somewhere in Europe or Canada) because I’ve become kinda disillusioned with Israel for a variety...
It’s not super relevant but Israel doesn’t allow offshore voting, the only way to vote if you live abroad is to physically travel to Israel on voting day. (This doesn’t apply to those on official government business, like ambassadors or navy soldiers or whatnot)

In the “butt” genre of wild answers, the classic is, of course, the Newlywed Game contestant who answered the prompt, “Where is the weirdest place you’ve made whoopee?” with—you guessed it—“in the ass.”
Unrelatedly, this is another instance mentioned, for which I can’t figure out the correct answer:
A Ken Jennings classic is when the Jeopardy! clue was, “The term for a long-handled gardening tool can also mean an immoral pleasure seeker,” and Jennings answered, “What is a hoe?” (Not wrong!)
I genuinely can’t tell if this is really the answer google gives or if it’s just fake because this sort of bullshit answers have become a meme. AI doesn’t seem to show up for me (is it region locked?)
I’ve been rewatching all the old Nickelodeon stuff and something is bothering me. In the legend of Korra, The first season culminates with a standoff between Korra and the season’s big bad, Amon. Ultimately, Amon escapes in a motorboat with his brother Tarrlok, who uses an electric shock glove to ignite the fuel tank and...
