Where is the Random Thread of Randomness stuff that doesn't belong in other threads thread?

It's amazing how quickly you can get stuff done when you just start doing it instead of whining about how much you have to do. Had a reason to run a small load of laundry so I decided to throw in the clothes I'd been wearing when I got caught in the rain and change to clean dry stuff. Monkeyed around here a bit before heading off to make lunch. I'd thrown on a bathrobe when I came in the house and when I took it off I was still surprisingly damp and realized I was still wearing my wet shirt. After 2-3 minutes of looking for the clean shirt, I figured out what had happened: I'd thrown it in the wash instead of the dirty shirt that I'd somehow forgotten to take off.

So I headed down to the basement to chuck it in with the rest. It wasn't THAT dirty and just getting it in the soapy water for a bit before the dryer would probably be fine. Except that my "new" (3yr old) washer has a locking feature when it is in certain cycles (instead of just shutting off if you open the lid). So I decided to wait around in hopes of getting it in when the spin cycle ended. I did not, "spin" was the last cycle before the load was done, but while I was down there I started organizing a big pile of crap I'd thrown on the floor after coming back from a renovation project and by the time the washer was done I'd almost completed the task.
 
My fucking computer's infected with something. I'm pissed off. Every time I look at my screen I see black shapes darting about. Can't work out what the fuck is going on. Ran an anti-virus scan, didn't turn up anything. Thinking of just throwing the whole fucking thing out the starting over with a new internet personality.
 
I had an old "safety" razor laying around; the kind that takes the double edged blades you get in a little plastic cartridge. I never used it because I couldn't find blades for it but recently I found some blades so I gave it a try. Amazingly, it seemed better than modern razors on every level. Shaves as close, blades last longer, and is a lot cheaper. Well just now I learned the advantage modern disposable multi-blade razors have: facial hair. I decided to cultivate a beard for about a week now and decided I didn't like it so I got to work on shaving it off and it hurt like a motherfucker. With multiple blades, apparently you get more cutting effect. With just the one blade it binds up and tugs on the hair a lot more.
