I live by "don't put it down, put it away" but an important part is where, if you have a fork in your hand, you should think "if I need this next year where would I look?" obv's in a cutlery drawer, but replace fork with car keys or documents..
Tech support, get that dopamine solving new problems everyday
All the previous jobs were in the vein of either huge risk (pizza delivery) or puzzle solving. Got quite disheartend doing anything less demanding.
Thought wesley snipes didn't do a bad job either. and mother fuckers tryin' ice skate uphill was goddamn excellent

Had some left over rc junk, challenged myself to make it go without my usual over designing/thinking/planning procrastinating until I never even start. happy how it turned out! reminds me of a tyco bandit, probably shorten v2 even more and stick that bandit body on.
The Patriot (2000) dull Mel Gibson movie, as far as i can recall, anyway random dude gets head cleanly lopped off with a cannonball, buddies and i played too much UnrealTournament that day not to hear the "HEADSHOT" anouncer in our heads.
Hidden "character", she slips one in in every comic.
Sketchy passing manuover in a charity motorcycle race.
To be honest we were racing honda 90's (honda passports in NA) so every pass was sketchy, but this is high on my daft list.
Diceing with a pro rider for a couple of laps, huge fun, close racing, a long lefthander coming up, I knew he had a big advantage here, his skinny ass could lean more here (ground clearance is a problem on soggy commuter bikes) so each lap he'd gain a little lead here, this time i'd nailed the corner, got close, two back markers ahead, didn't lift, passed the pro guy, dived between the backmarkers, over a greasy kerb, massive highside/slapper, kept it pinned and pulled away, I think I scared the pro because I didn't see him until it was all over.
I had the biggest shit eating smile under my helmet the whole time.
I did not have arse whisk on my bingo card today
I can imagine oversize novelty tp dispensers keys being peak insider humour in little and larger oss projects to come.

"Nice work" this is your adhd trick, that dopamine release when you solve a problem. I'm 25 plus years working now, different career's but that trick, that solve issue get dopamine, I've realized I can quite literally fix anything now, could change jobs in the morning and be working on my own with no support in under a month.
Anything except chemisty and this phone's autocorrect.
You can take that trick and apply it on anything else, just frame what you need to do as problem.
3:30pm, sips double expresso, "huh?"
