It's World Hamster Day so:

The Original Hampster Dance

The ORIGINAL Hampster Dance, meticulously recreated to be preserved in YTMND. This took more effort than you might think.

Oh wow YTMND still exists.

Uhh, OK... (The image gallery shows them off in all their (mistaken) glory!)

It gets better and better as it goes along.

The only thing unrealistic in that was the Pepsi shirt, which is clearly Newfoundland, or Quebec.

This, by Tal Levin (of whom I am a great fan), could fit in several forums but is broader than any of them, so I'm posting it here because it's well worth reading. (Spoiler: It's not just about sandwiches, by a long way)

Notable Sandwiches #142: Turkey

Welcome back to Notable Sandwiches, the feature where my editor David Swanson and I slip messily through Wikipedia’s List of Notable Sandwiches. This week,...

“The disc's greatest lovers were undoubtedly Mellius and Gretelina, whose pure, passionate and soul-searing affair would have scorched the pages of History if they had not, because of some unexplained quirk of fate, been born two hundred years apart on different continents. However, the gods took pity on them and turned him into an ironing board* and her into a small brass bollard.

If you're on a site like Payne Glasses or GlassUSA and use the "Try On Frame" feature while chewing gum, the glasses keep changing size. You can also make faces or squint or cross your eyes, and they will scramble to adjust.

I mean, that's what I've heard .......................

I guess for my birthday this year, I get SPAM.

My cell phone number, closely guarded for DECADES has apparently been found by the forces of cold-call/text-blasting.

Being consumed by flaming rats is too kind a fate for those bastards.

I have a Pixel 7 with built-in call screening that takes care of nuisance calls for me.

I had white listing turned on on my pixel 5... Not sure if the 10 has it. It might be on, and stuff is s just slipping past it finally. Who knows. If it escalates I'll look into locking it down again.

Annoying part is that I don't want to decline a call because that can supposedly be detected by a robo dialer. (Rings fewer times than it just ignored). So I just let it ring.
