What kind of high-school experience did you have? Were you in a clique? Were you popular, unpopular, the coolest kid in your Homeschool? Did you have a sweet jean jacket with patches, or maybe a leather vest? Were you an evil villain or a Mary Sue?

j3di,

@RickiTarr High school I wasn’t popular, was pretty quiet and because I lived a few minutes from school I often went home for lunch, so didn’t mix outside of the classroom. Couldn’t afford what was ‘in’ like Farah trousers or button down collared shirts, Head bags or the latest trainers. I achieved good grades and always did homework the day I got it, putting in maximum effort. This didn’t help. (1/2)

The irony of needing glasses to find my glasses remains unclear.

j3di,

@Skepticat I went to put on a pair of glasses recently but I was already wearing a pair. I must own too many pairs of reading glasses.

j3di,

@TheBreadmonkey Excuse me for saying but bread and butter pudding is hugely underrated!

j3di,

@qurlyjoe @TheBreadmonkey It’s much more custardy underneath the surface

On the 31st December last year, I reported a water leak in the road by us, to . It's still pissing clean water into the street nearly two months later and no-one has even been to check it.

j3di,

@NormanDunbar I’ve seen similar time scales here in Shropshire. What a waste.

How do you all like the new icon from @parakeet?

It’s wild that, to this day, many oddities and crashes can still be fixed with a reboot. Some stuff is literally leaking into the system, and an app crash/kill is not solving. I just told an @IceCubesApp user to reboot to solve a systematic crash and …. It worked.

j3di,

@dimillian @IceCubesApp My IceCubes app crashed while scrolling the timeline and won’t open now. Restart hasn’t fixed it.

@IceCubesApp I’m liking the way the remaining posts counter digits are animated!

    At this point i don't care about SpaceX or it's launches anymore.. Elon ruined that

    My dislike against him is stronger than my love for rockets..

    And that says something.. cause i freaking love rockets and space🚀 ❤️

    j3di,

    @stux He’s a bad advert for SpaceX so hopefully he gets moved on somehow and soon. Anyways the launch of Starship was awesome until the 💥 🚀

    @Robotron I’ve had kidney stones a couple of times. They don’t make pain relief strong enough! Get well soon bud.

    @Robotron The ‘after’ event is never as bad as the stone moving from the kidney. You got this!

    This morning, I hopped out of bed like Fred Astaire. Or anyone else, really, who has been dead for 40 years....

    Why give Twitter/X/whatever $11 a month when you could spend only $1 to support my occasional jokes about how hilariously incompetent Elon Musk is instead? Also, I post pictures of my cats. Just look at them. Elon Musk doesn't post pictures of cats. If anything, Elon kicks cats. I have no proof of this but we all know it's true. I bet it makes him feel like a big man.
