Isn't "first world" called something different now? I thought that "third world" was now "the global south" or somesuch...

As soon as he said that, I knew where I needed to share his problem. I raced home to log onto my laptop! You're welcome.
Remind me never to take a job at a smokehouse.

My email provider decided that eBay's watch list notifications are SPAM, and so I missed getting notified for a couple cool pipes that both sold for under 10 bucks.
eBay watch list is too big to manage without email notifications...
Had to change eBay account password because my wife uses my account, and figured out how to check how many pipes are on the watch list..

The antibiotics I was prescribed for my cut thumb don't taste like bubble gum. :(
