A classic story that bears reposting:

"We're having a problem sending email out of the department."

"What's the problem?" I asked.

"We can't send mail more than 500 miles," the chairman explained.

I choked on my latte. "Come again?"

"We can't send mail farther than 500 miles from here," he repeated. "A little bit more, actually. Call it 520 miles. But no farther."

@Siphonay@octodon.social mostly I'm disappointed that the sides aren't chocolate bars despite really looking like they are

@noelle hey we don't... well not everything... eh, it's a fair cop

@porsupah I'd argue that it's a different enough genre that comparisons don't really work

It is really good though

I love it when USAians say that English food sucks

Because then I can make them question everything they ever knew by pointing out that we were the ones that invented the apple pie

@hfrazey yep, 4 wild hedgehogs that we're pampering far too much with houses and lots of food and water

@hfrazey in this case, they sniff around the bowl as if to say "what's this crap? where's the good stuff gone?"

we accidentally got our hedgehogs accustomed to expensive cat biscuits

they are now quite unhappy that they're getting given the cheaper ones because we're out of the pricey stuff

@maple everything to do with printers involves words of anguish

@maple well, you have said about projects you'd do to yours if it wasn't on processing/night light duty

one of our hedgehogs was having a drink of water

they wanted to get at it better so they put their paws on the rim

the bowl fell over, covered them in water and they very quickly ran off as if nothing had happened
