"What's up with the wax by the slow cooker?"

"Well, I've read about 10 papers on high performance cycling and have concluded, that hot waxing my chain may save about half a watt."

"When did you last ride it?"

"Also a good question, indeed."

  "Oh that's for candlemaking, did you know that burning beeswax reduces allergens in the air by neutralizing the electric charge that makes them float?"
  
  I haven't made candles in probably 5 years but I always loved that factoid about the beeswax.

- See, i had a flat, but the flat is on the rear, which means i have to take off the rear wheel, which is worse than the front. But it's okay, the tire was worn down anyway, and i wanted to go tubeless anyway.

- It always surprises me when nobody is interested in learning how things around them work. I have a dozen hobbies that I don't have time for.

  I have the time but not the energy or motivation to be able to focus on any of them for more than 3 minutes. Help...

  Right? I think this to myself all the time. I mean I know it's not nobody but it sure seems like it is the vast majority.
  
  And yes, I too have too many hobbies and not enough time. I really hope I live long enough to retire and have time for some of it lol

- The jack of all trades. Ride that EXP bar until gaining a level takes twice as long as it used to be to gain 10. Bail. Reroll. Repeat.

  It's why I never made it to ensure game content on any of the MMOs I played. I'd rather just reroll a new class.

- Albin Countergambit Nuclear Ballistic Missile Defense might come in handy in one of your next games. It's a niche strategy but indispensable when you need it.

- Try not to eat the pieces.

- King's pawn opening with white is the most versatile opening to learn, as it can be transposed into most beginner-friendly board states.

- Root cellars and inglenooks if you like architecture.
  
  Ed: you meant chess stuff... I'm not smart

This is me so much. I don't have an official diagnosis and should probably go talk to my doctor but it's just so much work but oh look a cool 16 episode documentary on professional poker and historical cheating in casinos on YouTube and spending multiple days and hours og researching what bicycle saddle is the best is just more satisfying for my brain. I've already got a referral to the psychiatrist bu that's a year ago and is not valid anymore so yay me for not being able to take care of myself.
