Friends girlfriend lent me her hiking shoes when I picked him up to go hiking having forgotten mine.

Payment was down at a hardware store and the manager just let me walk out with the $7 of screws I needed to finish my project that day

My EDC is
A pixel phone with a case on it, in the case I tuck my driver’s licence and one credit card. I have a wallet app on the phone for all other cards I might need.
Keychain is a carabiner and short piece of webbing holding 2 house keys, car fob, mini knife and mini flashlight.
The keys clip onto bra strap and go inside my shirt and phone tucks into bra. Definitely not a fella :P
I’ve never tried to have what I would call a conversation, but I use it as a tool for both fixing/improving writing and for writing basic scripts in autohotkey, which it’s fairly good at.
It’s language models are good for removing the emotional work from customer service - either giving bad news in a very detached professional way or being polite and professional when what I want is to call someone a fartknocker.
You can 3D print containers that fit all kind of juice/pop/milk lids. They can be any height, but my favorite are the ones that nest almost perfectly inside giving you one bottlecap worth of storage (perfect for pills or sim/sd cards).
I’ve had my printer for 6 months and still get a kick out of this.
One that bugs me a lot that I noticed just in the last 5 years or so is over pronouncing the T in words like celebrity and community - yes it’s spelled with a T but it’s not fully voiced like you’re saying the word Tea. I noticed it first on YouTube and now in some audiobooks and even the occasional coworker.
ASL has very different structure to spoken/written English, so not everybody who signs is going to comprehend English grammar as fluently/easily or the nuance of all the words that don’t have a sign equivalent.
Additionally ASL communicated who is talking and the tone of their words, even when the speaker is off screen, which just can’t be captured by captioning. Closed captioning has just caught on to using slightly different colors to indicate the speaker, so you know who’s talking offscreen. I’ve only seen this in British panel shows so far but it’s helpful.
I pull my card out to tap, though it’s just habit from pre-tap and I probably wouldn’t need to. I leave NFC off on my phone or it tends to keep detecting my cc and chime.
