The PC or the TV on a UPS, but not the freezer

Given the price difference between a brand new UPS and just the battery for it, I tend to just buy a new UPS for my computer whenever I start to feel like the battery run time is no longer where it used to be.
That way, my system keeps running the longest, and other appliances around the house get to inherit a UPS that still works for at least few minutes (secondary PC...networking equipment...living room TV...etc). Plus they get the extra bonus of getting behind the built-in surge protector.

The answer was DISPARATE
Anyone want to explain? Don't panic, I'm up tomorrow...

I really was very close wasn't I....
Is Disparate ("This Parrot") really a synonym for incomparable though?
One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas, I don't know.

Hmm, I see that it is. I would've used it very differently. There you go, I guess..

That's the idea of the Cryptic part of CCC! 
Sorry about the "Dis Parrot", but I couldn't resist. Mind you, if I had, I might not be doing it again tomorrow, so maybe it wasn't such a good idea. Hmmm...

You made a valid point last week, but I wouldn't push your luck.

You don't want to tell me that there really are people who would defend PHBs? In this particular case that would be the Pointy Hatted Boss.
Anyway, let's hope that nobody really comes with a sentence that ends with 'or else'. That's usually the point where I lose all humor.

If you're writing an if block, and you want some code to execute when the condition isn't met, would you put it under if or else?

With your subject, "Liberals and humorless avert your eyes", you have no one left to read your post.
Fortunately, no one's paid you any mind.

I don't have anything against liberals, that was the guy who used to post things with a similar warning years ago. Besides that, I expected nothing else. Tell them to do something and they will do the exact opposite. I sure would have something sexist to say about that...

I was just noting that the subject excluded everyone.
Just reading what you're writing.

I just did a search. The original was not much better: Liberals and foreigners avert your eyes. Dang, was that really six years ago?

And found it quite amusing at that. I always thought that "forked" was what you were when your code didn't work!

Exactly. But it's easy: It's just a big chunk of code!

An edit is not a fork.
3 lines, 3 mistakes. Not even capable of running a spill-chicker. Whoever is paying for that is burning money

Nonpareil?
Kinda sounds like parrot, means the same as incomparable?
