I’m picturing Baba Yaga in her walking house, once every 20,000km, saying ugh time to replace the chain and grease the swing arm bearings on those chicken legs

Where’s the breaker bar

No, you’re running late for work because you’ve been watching motorbike mechanics YouTube videos

when I use sublime text to automate an otherwise incredibly tedious text entry task (numbering lines of a table incrementally), that's when I'm a hacker
