Pro tip: I used to think working from cafes was fine until I tracked my actual output for a month in Lisbon

Different strokes for different folks I guess. @henderson.kim probably thrives on that quiet vibe but I need some noise to lock in. Complete silence makes my brain wander too much honestly. A coffee shop or just music playing gives me something to tune out. Quiet feels like it's daring me to get distracted if that makes sense.

My game night controller died mid-boss fight and taught me a lesson

Used to think wired controllers were for tryhards and just went wireless for the convenience. Then my controller died during a clutch moment in a fighting game tournament and I lost the match because of it. That was the moment I realized I was wrong about wired being unnecessary. Now I strictly use a wired controller for anything competitive or serious. Rechargeable AAs are a good solution too though, I still use those for casual gaming.

Spent 3 hours trying to fix my monitor arm because of a stupid plastic clip

Man, I've been there more times than I care to count. Spent two hours last month wrestling with a simple shelf bracket from IKEA before noticing the instructions had a tiny picture showing the screw needed to go in at a specific angle. Felt like a total fool. That frustration of taking something apart and putting it back together only to find out it was something that simple is just brutal. At least you figured it out before it actually broke or got thrown out the window, right?

Tried fermented feed for my hens and they got way too drunk somehow

Nah, I've heard of this happening but never saw it firsthand. How long exactly did you let it sit before feeding it out? 3 days sounds about right for boozy feed in warm weather. I keep mine to 24 hours max in the summer and have never had issues, might be worth cutting your soak time down to 12-18 hours if your place stays hot.

Found a $3 copy of Bully at a garage sale and the disc was actually a burned CD of someone's high school punk band

lol I gotta say you're right. That name change would've made the whole game feel way more chill and relatable, like we're all in on some inside joke about detention. Plus it just rolls off the tongue better, you know? Bully always sounded kind of harsh and aggressive to me, like it was trying too hard. Mrs. Jenkins Detention has that sense of dread mixed with humor, which is exactly how school actually feels. Honestly kinda bummed they didn't go with that in the final cut.
