Remember when hostels actually had communal dinners? I feel like that whole vibe shifted around 2015.

So true @rileyb61, a buddy of mine just got back from a trip and said his favorite hostel in Lisbon still does family dinner but it's like 12 euros now for a basic pasta and salad. He met some awesome people there though, so I guess you pay for the company.

Debate: Thermal paste spread method - pea vs spread vs line

People get way too worked up over thermal paste. It's not like you're building a space shuttle. A few degrees difference won't matter for 99% of users.

That guy who tried to pay for an oil change with a check from 1992

Man I gotta ask, what did that check even look like? Was it all faded and crumbly like something dug out of a time capsule, or did he keep it in mint condition like a weird collector's item?

My neighbor the paralegal gave me bad advice about small claims court limits

That PDF sounds like it had EXACTLY the kind of info most people miss. Did it actually list the limit for security deposit disputes specifically, or was it more of a general breakdown by dollar amount? I'm asking because a lot of those official PDFs still use vague language like "up to the jurisdictional limit" without clarifying if things like deposits or contract disputes have different caps. Also, when you called the clerk's office, did they confirm the same numbers from the PDF or did they add any extra details that weren't on the website? I've found clerks can sometimes give you the real world loopholes that don't make it onto the official pages.
