Appreciation post: Warranty paperwork that needs a map and a flashlight

I mean, yesterday a customer needed a frame claim and the online system wanted receipts from three shops ago. It's like they make it hard on purpose, maybe it's just me but idk. How do you guys keep all that stuff straight without going nuts?

TIL my dad's old star map manual saved my replica ship display.

I've had this busted replica of a Serenity-class cruiser on my shelf for years, and the navigation lights never worked right. Found my dad's handwritten notes from when he built it, and following his steps let me trace the FAULTY connection in the wiring. Does anyone else have old tech or props that only make sense with the original builder's clues?

Question about always needing a big group for board games

Most folks say you need a crowd for a real board game night. I learned this isn't true after playing with just my buddy every week. I got good at adjusting games for two people, which helped us think more about each move. Now I see how quiet games can be just as fun as loud ones. I wish more geeks would give small groups a real chance.
