When does a joke become a dad joke?

I've written three novels that deal with AI out of control or the misuse of AI. I am not comforted by the technology, especially considering the kinds of people involved in their programming.

What happens to bad rainbows?

As are we all, though I'm torn between this and the SPY27, for different reasons. I thought you already had a SPY27 PK, Doc? The SPY27 variant is a permanent companion for me. Eagerly awaiting this variant, along with the "shadow revealed" G-10 SPY27 variant. Not yet. The exchange rate is...

Some Spyderco Golden knives have the date of manufacture hidden on the tang under the scales. Sometimes it is partially visible on the Manix 2 when rotating the blade. Otherwise, it can only be seen when the knives are taken apart.

Has anyone seen this Tom Hanks movie? It is actually pretty good and a bit funny at times. Warning, many attempts at suicide, but they all are thwarted, much to Otto's frustration! It is part of a running gag. He feels he has nothing to live for since his wife died. People with needs keep interferin...

Why is everyone so tired on April 1? Because they just finished a 31-day March. I have a great April Fools' joke about construction, but I'm still working on it. I was going to tell you an April Fools' joke about boxing, but I forget the punch line. What did the ghost say on April 1? April Ghoul's D...

Stupid chemistry jokes: -If IronMan and Silver Surfer teamed up, they’d be alloys. -Wanna hear a joke about potassium? K… -Why are all chemistry jokes bad? Because the good ones argon. -Two hydrogen atoms walk into a bar. One exclaims “I’ve lost my electron!” ”Are you sure?” Says the other. ”Yes, I’...

I actually had a backlock Manix for a very short time (won an e-bay bid for it completely unexpected), but just held and opened/closed it two or three times to check if everything is right before I immediately sold it again (NOT because I did not like it! I did not want another Spydie back then in ...

Did you get the back lock or compression lock model? I have the back lock and it is a dandy little knife, to be sure. I may link the thread my fellow Austrian country man made about his new Lil Native (backlock, btw) since he posted a really nice write up about it which you might want to check out,...

I guess now we need to put you a list together of lefty friendly Spyderco knives. Always a pleasure to spend other people's money.

Anyone ever think that in the Book of Revelation the AntiChrist and False prophet make the image of the beast which is an A.I.? "And it was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast would even speak and cause all who do not worship the image of the be...

Yeah, so it could be late 1995 or so. I think that box says no later than 1997. The paper says 1995. The knife was made between late 1995 and 1997.

Someone with more expertise needs to chime in.

We really need a new release of this knife with a new, more fashionable steel.

A university first year decided to try out for the rugby team. “Can you tackle?” asked the coach. “Watch this,” said the student, who proceeded to run smack into a telephone pole, shattering it into splinters. “Wow,” said the coach. “I’m impressed. Can you run?” “Of course I can run,” said the fresh...

Your knife was sharpened on the day that Johnson from maintenance came by to try his hand on the grinder.

Seriously, I don't see this often, but sometimes I have. Unless it is egregious, I wouldn't worry about it. Just reset it as you normally would and use it like it was intended.

Someone else can chime in. The extent of my knowledge of the Renegade C23 is that this one was made in the years you suggested. It is marked GIN-1 on the blade and that with the box makes me think 1994-1995. However, I am not anything close to an authority.
