I was raised evangelical protestant in the USA, at some point attending both Seventh-day Adventist and Pentacostal churches. My mother did not consider my Catholic grandparents to be Christians, based on her belief that one cannot be saved by confession/prayer to a saint or clergy instead of directly to Christ. As many other have said, this is not the mainstream definition.

The Animorphs series explores this quite well. It’s not actually painful for them, but should be and is plenty disturbing.

There are kids around, so it’s gonna be real bad.

Me and another churchgoer now occupy the same space. I’m on my phone; I wonder what she did to deserve this.

I grew up next to a stop sign in a tiny town straddling a one-lane road that by some joke of fate was the the most efficient automobile route between two points of much greater interest.

To me, the sound of a big diesel engine idling at a stop is the sound of a peaceful winter night with my bedroom window open.

You know how this goes, right?

The resulting thirst for scientific knowledge results in unparalleled technological advancement, but also an endless demand deciduous teeth for further experimentation. Eventually their personally-developed, secretly manufactured and deployed microdrone monitoring network alerts them every time any child loses a tooth in the Western world. Slightly larger drones sneak into the home and collect the tooth. In an attempt to avoid further pressing of ethical boundaries, the drones are equipped to carry in small amounts of currency that are left in place of the tooth. Your family, more literally and on a larger scale than any family before, DOES the tooth fairy 🧚 stuff.

It’s probably Emacs, but I’m a Neovim user, so I’m going to go with that.

Lazy plot setups. Main example: if someone coughs for no reason in the first 10 minutes, they DEFINITELY have a terminal illness that will be revealed shortly.

For me lately, it’s been GitHub " awesome" repos.

It’s like Mad Max, except you have no guns or ammunition and so are mostly reliant on turtle carcasses and fruit peels instead.

When the box (and instructions) to frozen convenience foods get lost, I use mine to figure out when it’s heated through.

I remember the shot where we see many possibilities illustrated via many Nics, and thinking “Huh. That’s really interesting. I’m not sure this movie deserves it.”

Amen! I still miss my Palm Pixi keyboard. If someone made a vertical keyboard case for my Pixel, it would have to be very bad for me not to buy it.

Yesterday, my sunglasses fell off my face.

I reflexively shut my eyes while lunging my arms forward, accidentally shoving my wife and flinging my glasses several feet to my left.

That was easier done than said.

The comparison to Wikipedia is a really good one.

All of the Phil Collins songs that were played in the Tarzan movies.

The room is filled with a deadly gas. Either it is built so that it vents into the room naturally from deep under ground, or a diffuser is periodically refilled by whoever controls access to the room.

The McGuffin is the antidote to the gas, which you must obtain and administer before entering.
