🧠 Noodletter #2 – You Could’ve Unsubscribed. You Didn’t.

Howdy, Noodler 🎉

Craig here! I’m the guy that wrangles up the past so you can mess it up in the present.

Thanks to everyone who weighed in on the newsletter name. The responses were unexpectedly close. I’ve decided that “Noodletter” is way too silly and ridiculous, so naturally I’m sticking with it 😬😆

Noodly Nuggets

Speaking of silly and ridiculous… how about some Noodly Nuggets?!

A few of you clever sleuths caught the link to @chronoodlecraig on Instagram last time. Here’s the scoop!

Every week I stumble on moments in history that make me utter things like “HUH,” “MMM HMMM,” “HAAA!” or “OH NO THEY DIDN’T.” You know… normal people noises. For example:

• Treadmills were used for punishment before fitness.

• Before it was Google, it was called BackRub.

• Festivus existed before Seinfeld made it famous.

🐛 The “Multi-Reveal” Bug

Have you ever run into this bug? 👇

It’s the Multi-Reveal bug.

First reported by my Mom (👋 hi Mom) and more recently by a super terrific colleague, this bug pops up when a button doesn’t lock out repeat presses, so it reveals the next event over and over if you mash ‘Play’ fast enough.

I didn’t run into it because I don’t mash on the ‘Play’ button like you monsters! Actually, that’s not entirely true. When I get cash back at the store, I always mash on that ‘Dispense’ button just to make sure they have a locking mechanism in place!

Oh, and the Multi-Reveal bug is now fixed 🙌
