It’s a meme (holy crap that was 14 years ago!). Look at the top comment chain.

But wait, if the scanner was your camera then how did you take the picture?

They are still around in S.E. VA

Seconding the above, I want to say I paid $60 in a pretty average city.

The store I went to is called Jos-a-bank, feel free to look them up but any higher end men’s fine clothing store should have a tailor on site at all times.

There are also dedicated tailor shops you can try looking for one of those.

I don’t think places like dillards or Macy’s will do alterations but I could be wrong.

Worst case the place you go may tell you something like “he only works Tuesdays and Saturdays” or something like that, so you may want to keep trying to get them on the phone, but I’ve not been told that before.

This is exciting, now just to wait until it’s available in my state.

It really sucks the joy out of listening to those songs.

Does it tho?

Really?

Why are you so mentally invested in that song and other people’s opinions of it?

“Nobody ain’t doin’ nothing’ wrong”.

I’ve always heard it more as “ain’t nobody doin’ nothing wrong”

…“Don’t not go there” over “Do go there”…

So many tour guides for cities say things like “do not skip going to” or similar. It’s just a linguistic choice.

Mulva?

…the US knew about it but allowed it to happen…

I hear this, and in hindsight it makes sense to say, but put yourself back in the mindset of the late 90s. The US was a fucking giant. The world saw what happened after pearl harbor, I believe it was less of “allowing it to happen” and more of “we were so arrogant that we couldn’t believe anyone would be dumb enough to actually do it”.

Maybe, maybe not. Just depends TBH.

How restricting the sale of new firearms and not all firearms of the type that they want to restrict does anything is outside of my understanding.

Love this phrase. I may start using it regularly. Like, in response to other things as well… It’s so… Good. Thank you.

“flavor” lol

They say it can’t run DOOM however you can use it to display the video output from DOOM.

McFly! Hello!

Which direction do you move your finger to access the next song on your phone when. Looking at a play list.

Your finger moves up then taps the one you want.

You could just as easily say that next should be up.

Both are wrong.

Next should be left, volume should be up / down.

Having grown up in the tape era, the right button being next / fast forward just make sense.

I can see on a screen that you’d scroll down to get to the bottom of a playlist, but isn’t your finger moving up?

This is the classic problem of inverted vertical controls or not?

Just avoid it altogether and make the back / skip button left / right respectively, and volume be up / down which just makes obvious sense.

The knob and buttons are separate controls. One controlled the frequency on the radio, one controlled the inputs.

The question was: which one do you think the knob controlled, frequency or inputs?

See, my favorite is GNU, for “GNU’s Not Unix”.

I’ve even heard people say “Double-yoos dot”, and even that compressed version is still more syllables than the full thing.
