How would you label NBC?

The turbo button slows it down

Two days later, which is “on the third day.”

You carry a cat with you when you leave the house?

Thanks for the heads up. Maybe it’s an issue with Lemmy connect

I had to literally mash the back button a dozen times as fast as I could, and when I finally escaped, I had to scroll through to find this post again.

Not a very funny joke imo
