Recently rearranged my bedroom, and the one problem with the new layout is there’s nowhere to put the projector. But there is a perfect blank wall right in front of the bed. A little MacGuyver’ing later and, voila



Benq1070 + shower mirror + cardboard + toothpick = homemade ultra short throw projector. Sure, I’ve got the keystone correction set to the max and it’s still pretty skewed, but it’s good enough for watching Frasier or Simpsons reruns before I go to sleep.

Is there any actual product out there to achieve what I’m doing here, ideally with better results?

I mean, is there a reason they're being posted other than "those people look weird?"

mysterious frankie posted:

Because if any one of these people was, say, doing your taxes at H&R Block you'd be like this is a normal person, whatever. But when you put that same person on the Gummo set and photograph them with a treo 700, vomiting cheese sauce into the vhs slot of a combo tv while several fat amish look on, the absurdity of life opens like a flower.

Honoured to have provided the new title, if only indirectly.

I've been working through the Bad With Money thread in BCF, it's loving awesome and I wish I'd discovered it ages ago.

I got B U R G L E D while I was at work.

BFC: Turns out my insurance has an insane amount of exclusions and barely any of the stolen stuff is covered

PI: My two kitties don't even seem to have noticed. Bet they asked the fuckin' burglar(s) for kibbles

Sorry your poo poo got jacked though.

GoGoGadgetChris has lost $3k worth of firearms in the burglary

Motronic posted:

Including a proper safe which they surely had to destroy to get at them?

GoGoGadgetChris posted:

The safe and its contents remained untouched. I had been to the range last weekend and was lazy about putting a couple items back in the safe. I live alone so it's not the first (but certainly the last) time I've done this.

he is called an irresponsible firearms owner

GoGoGadgetChris posted:

I keep all my firearms in a locked unit that only I have access to, and criminals would require extensive tools and time to open. Sounds plenty responsible to me. Tell your General Consensus they're stupid.

It's pretty effective, I haven't been in a library in 10 years. Oh, maybe that was because I was worried about how many sets of dickbeaters had fondled the books I was reading. I dunno.

Well, anyway the point is the publishers won in the fight against me because I conceded and I don't read books anymore. Any time I get nostalgic about books and how I liked reading, I just go play a video game or get on the internet. gently caress 'em, they can keep their bat and their ball.

Way back when I hit puberty I built an elaborate masturbation sleeve out of LEGO technic and got my foreskin stuck between the wall and the piston.

It was not one of my proudest moments.

Context: there is a YouTuber who has two channels - one is about old computers and video games, and the other is about open carrying firearms in the most awkward fashion possible.

All of these are primo channel names for your YouTube channel where you wax nostalgic about floppy disks while repeatedly holstering and unholstering a 6 shooter like you’re having an old west duel

So I said "it doesn't matter if I painted over the orange tip, this is still an airsoft rifle and I'm allowed to bring it into the library. That reminded me of going to the library as a kid when I would use their Tandy color computers."

Context: Uncle Enzo is explaining how his sister can have a stepdad who is not also his stepdad.

Uncle Enzo posted:

mom1 and dad1 have the SA poster (kid1)
mom1 and dad1 divorce

dad1 remarries to mom2

dad1 and mom2 have the sister (kid2)
dad1 and mom2 divorce
mom2 marries mom3

mom3 is stepmom to kid2, but not to kid1, since kid2 is the child of dad1 and mom2. kid1 and kid2 share a father, but not mothers, and one of their mothers remarried to a woman.

Of course kid1 and kid2 would only be half-siblings in this example, but having a solid blended family that dispenses with the half- designation isn't unheard of.

I was going to post a relevant quote. But my quotes folder now comprises 2,500 screenshots going back to April 2007, and they're all called poo poo like screenshot-2010-02-04.png and I can't find anything in there
