AWKWARD ZOMBIE

Take a glass, fill it a quarter of the way with vinegar, and then another 5th or so with vegetable oil. Stick a piece of plastic wrap over the top, then stab it once with a fork. Leave it by whatever they're attracted to (probably some kind of fruit or food residue)
They'll go after the vinegar, and get trapped under the cooking oil.

The problem is that your port might actually be damaging your headphones though, be wary of that as you wouldn't hear a difference when switching devices then.

I messed around with it a bit and I think I've fixed it. It's stopped the noise for now, at least. If it starts up again I'll take a closer look at the port itself.

My car is two weeks old and sometime during those two weeks I drove over a nail.

So I had a flat tire at 11:00 at night on the coldest day so far this year (it went below 30 F last night).

Just... why.

Uuugh i locked my keys in my car and the AAA guy is taking forever to get here.

I've never had good experiences with AAA, I'd never wait any less than 2 hours before they arrived.
Once me and mom sat outside in an empty lot for four hours before anybody showed up, they're ridiculous.

It might have to do with what city you live in. They subcontract in different cities and sometimes those other companies aren't as good.

For instance, I've used AAA three times this year and they got there in 20 minutes every time, including last night at midnight. So at least here, they're pretty amazing.

They showed up a few minutes after I posted, so we're all good, got my keys now.

This time was a lot faster than last time though, since I was actually in the city and not in the middle of podunk nowhere.

Fuck my fucking school's fucking Internet. It keeps telling me I need to do a network authentication, even after I tell the network to fucking remember every fucking device I connect to the Internet with. It does this almost every week.

Turns out I'll have to take Pre-Engineering in college because my GPA is a little low. Kinda rustled off, because I'm actually plenty smart to start taking the actual courses, I was just lazy my freshman and sophomore years and that caused my GPA to get lowish. Now I'm going to be set behind for something I did 2 years ago. Urgh.

Having a lot of trouble finding pictures of zombies that are high-res enough to use in my book project. Especially video game zombies, you'd think all the folks out there playing in glorious high resolutions would take more pictures of their games. Maybe they are but I don't know how to find them.

I'm getting business cards printed. They're going to say "If you're reading this, you got here before the tow truck did."
I hate these shit noses using my driveway like free parking. It was either this or putting nails under their tires

Did you try googling the resolution along with the topic (ie, "chainsaw zombie 1920x1080" or whatever you are actually looking for)?

Hahaha, the common core.

It's a really poorly worded problem. The end result will always be 13, but this question's "logic" is that it's easier for kids to make ten first and then see what number is left over.

You're differentiating the smartasses from the strict in that one.

I'm not sure that's a personality trait teachers want to reinforce.
