Had a weird, difficult Excel/report issue at work yesterday. Wifey figured it out in just a few minutes. What she did would've taken me HOURS to figure out. She's so amazing.
Basically, it was a column full of thousands (13,000 , until I trimmed it to 8000) of 8 digit IDs that needed to be condensed to one cell, with only commas and no spaces between them (in order to be able to paste them into a form on a website, to generate ANOTHER report).

New Laibach record in May. Single sounds good. One of the songs is titled 'Luigi Mangione'. This should get good. #2026Albums

The last Super Bowl I watched was in New Orleans, not the one in 2025, but the one in 1986, when the Bears won.
