I like how in the list of uses on the back of the Q-Tip box it shows pictures of them being actively used for things like painting, makeup application, first aid, etc...and then there's just a picture of a BABY. No Q-Tip, just a baby. What's up with that?

When my daughter was 3 she would whisper to strangers in the grocery store "you're going to die someday and nothing can stop it". She did it for like a week. A lot of nature books and TV lead to that moment.

Clavdivs -- you're one of the few remaining real old timers here. Thanks for many hilarious moments of laughter over the many years (I'm class of 2004 under my original username).
At the same time I'm resisting the urge to eulogize what I feel we've lost here in recent years, one major piece of which is the ability to laugh collectively at a lot of things that just are objectively absurd and funny. The occasional quip will still crack me up of course, but this site once was good for a laugh a minute, full of irreverence, mirth, and absurdity.
Of course it got harder to laugh at anything in the whole world over the same prior two decades or so. There's that too. But if I honestly probe why I spend so much less time here these days and almost ignore the blue and gray anymore it is heavily down to how serious everything seems to get here like what happens on a tiny backwater website for text-based nerds (let's admit it, across generations and ideologies and experiences here what we all love is the sound of our own -- and sometimes others' -- written voices) is of the utmost political importance for the world beyond.
But clavdivs is still here making me laugh. Thank you friend.

Sometimes I mis-read your name as clam dip and sometimes as "claw divs" but I always read it with anticipation because your comments are shrewd and/or funny.
(Miraculously, I resist the perverse urge to read all the "v"s in your comments as "u"s somehow.)
(Probably I won't be able to resist that anymore now.)

Congrats! I know it is pronounced Claudius, but it will always be Clav-div to me.
The answer that Too-ticky linked above was good, and it led me to read all the answers in the question. I really liked that question. The question was posted a little over 9 years ago and I still have some of the items in my answer. Since then, I have purchased a lifetime supply of toothpicks. Actually I was given them by a friend who is the store liquidation business. I will likely never need to buy plastic knives and forks again. I have 3,000 of each. Same friend.

When work was phasing out paper cards, I scored two huge boxes of tractor-fed 5"x9" cards, and a box of tractor-fed 3"x5" cards. They make amazing menu-and-shopping-lists and to do lists, respectively, so I planned to go back for more of both the next day...but someone from Facilities came and sent them all to the recycler. *enraged boggling intensifies*
Still pissed about that... But I've had a fresh card for my To Do list since about 2008, and I have years worth left!

One of the very first things I ever favorited was this 2006 comment from Plutor (hi Plutor!) in which he uses the img tag (!) to link to a satirical animated gif banner ad (!) featuring Ceiling Cat (!) to make a joke regarding the then-entirely-theoretical concept of a dedicated meetups site (!). I feel like if I showed this to a fifteen-year-old they would not understand any of it, despite that being about the emotional maturity demographic of the joke itself.
Also, earlier in that thread, a pre-mod cortex apparently pitched the IRL subsite several years before that's what we (at that point including me) built as a mod team. Weird long looks back, man.

One of the great things about old-thread roundups is clicking through, having no memory of the thread, and finding I'd favorited a bunch of things. And getting to enjoy those same comments again like for the first time. Makes me worry slightly about my memory but hey, one of the little quirks of incipient middle age, I suppose.

Thanks to all who have taught me so much over the years, beginning with Scarabic's instructions regarding how to dispose of a dead body (my introduction to metafilter and the sign that I had found my people). I've been surprised by how attached I can become to people I've never met (still miss Huron Bob). I expect I'll be checking in regularly until I leave this vale of tears, despite the handful of you all who grate on my last fucking nerve.

I was charmed into signing up for my first MeFi account by seeing a username like clavdivs, seeing as I am a big fan of the books, the BBC series, the Black Adder title homage, and the dvd's I bought because you never know with the streams, right kids? (See current Netflix FPP).
So I also hear every comment from clavdivs I stumble across in Derek Jacoby's voice, which is a very good thing, if occasionally confusing.

All of clavdivs's comments give me the same weird joy I felt when I first discovered the Internet as a tween: I'm not sure I fully understand what's going on, but thank God there are people somewhere out there whose minds work in such strange and brilliant ways.
Though I'll always be a little freaked out that clav somehow reached into my subconscious to describe my ideal music video :
fisheye lens to Art Malik who's playing Claudius ascending the ranks of the praetorian barracks. Peter Gabriel's, Solsbury Hill. basically an MTV montage overlaped with the lyrics.
(Seriously I will help crowdfund this if anyone is interested)

My all time most favorite exchange on metafilter, which I still speak of with my family to this day, (and which in retrospect is a bit mean spirited which is regretful but...the comment is just still so good)... was this classic response to user ishrinkmajeans' rationale for spreading his legs wide on transit.

That would be awesome. I was absolutely heartbroken when amberglow left. jonmc seems to have drifted away after I cut way back on Mefi, but that is still tragic, especially as he is essentially a founding member. If either of you are listening please stop by for awhile. Mefi seems a lot different now than two decades ago but it still retains much of the magic. Props to the mods for keeping all the cats corralled, at least enough that we don't claw all the furniture to bits.
