Happy St. Patrick’s Day, Fixers! In honor of the patron saint of Ireland, I will be getting wasted at work showing my support with green tinted kludges! If you’re not the celebrating sort, non-green versions are available by clicking on the photos. Now who wants to limbo? -Ms. Fix-It

Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are falling
From end to end, and soon will come the sludge
The plumber’s gone, because I was name calling
‘Tis you, ’tis you must go and I must kludge.

Most kids get a TI-89 without even considering its illustrious past. Much like the precursor to the T-800, this calculator is functional but not pretty.

Favorite Comment: Fixer Thadius says, “I wouldn’t be so quick to judge that the switch turns on/off the calculator. For all we know, that’s a kludged doomsday device activation protocol.”

Favorite Comment: Fixer lostmac says, “The frisbee’s connected to the THROW RUG
the throw rug’s connected to the RUNNING SHOE
the running shoe’s connect to the IRON
the iron’s connected to the COFFEE POT
OH HEAR THE AMBULANCE LORD!”

Between the loud wallpaper border, the 70’s fast food floor tiles, and the dead hooker motel comforter motif on the booth cover, I’m going to say this chair is an upgrade. – Ms. Fix-It

When will the car companies give us the feature we REALLY want? Like a built-in waffle iron. – Ms. Fix-It

Favorite Comment: Fixer Moxie Man says, “No, you don’t understand. It’s currently maple sap season here in the northeast USA. They’ve flushed the coolant out of this car and replaced it with maple sap. Once enough sap boils off, it will ooze out of the pin holes in the heater core, through the vent and directly onto the pancakes! It’s brilliant!”

Favorite Comment: Fixer Czernobog says, “No one would have believed, in the first years of the 21st century, that human affairs were being watched from the traficless Arizona byroads. No one could have dreamed that we were being scrutinized as someone with a microscope studies creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. Few men even considered the possibility of life in Arizona. And yet, from their hiding places under bits of dried wood, minds immeasurably superior to ours regarded this Earth with envious eyes, and slowly, and surely, they drew their plans against us.”

But you can build a better way to accidentally electrocute yourself.”
