NAME OF CLAIMANT: Ellie Diodelass
COMPLAINT TYPE: personal injury
INCIDENT DESCRIPTION: spent stage from Falcon 9 Block 4 struck my boat and killed me
REPARATIONS SOUGHT: new boat

man I just fuckin hate it when that happens

ME: my head per second
MY BOYFRIEND: what
ME: my head, it per second
BF: what??
ME: it hertz!
BF: I am going to kill you

in the other news, don't ever go on Know Your Meme, even if (especially if) you have a ton of RAM

MICROSOFT: Edge is 33% faster than Chrome and Firefox. Edge is fast. Edge is better because it's faster. Use Edge.
ME: have you possibly considered the idea that I don't select my primary browser purely on speed
