The thing I hate more than cords is configuring cordless things. Cords work.
Cords are visual farts.
All hail dis-cord-ia! I see what you did there.
Come now, why can’t we be more cordial about this?
The fix is sometimes to just buy better cordless things. I stopped hating wireless the day I stopped buying Best Buy own-brand $20 wifi dongles. And now the quality floor is even lower, thanks to Amazon and Ali Express and so on – it’s even easier to buy maddeningly awful cordless gear!
Shall we seek accord?
I can go though a cord in a weekend, if the fire is big enough. Love em!
Always seemed environmentally suspect to me, but I suppose it’s trivial in the scheme of things.
D’accord!
I always preferred the Camry, myself.
Struck a chord, did it?
Can I interest you in something vintage instead?
You spineless monster!
We’re here, we’re chordata, get used to it!
It did, record that for the future
