They hate us cuz they anus?

I remember hanging with a buddy, and our third friend shows up with, lol and behold, three blunts. These were those blunt wraps that we got back in the day, so three gram blunts with all sorts of nasty grape flavored chemicals. I’m trying to remember what they were called.

Anyway, me and first buddy are both like, oh boy, that’s hefty for just three dudes, and the third buddy said something that we would go on to quote for many years: What’s going to happen to you? And so we smoked those blunts, and yeah, we were incredibly baked, but he was right, nothing happened.

That logic does not apply today. You will fall off the earth.

I no longer smoke weed.

Eating it before heating?

I’m not aware of anywhere that pays (or is even allowed to pay) baristas what waiters and bartenders get. There may be exceptions. This post seems to be about literally anyplace with a new POS having basically options for 20-30% tips, despite the person behind it making like $15 an hour (at least where I live). Fortunately, lately, I’ll have the person reach around and press the “no tip” button often enough, since it’s usually the least obvious option available.

Damn, thank you. We’re snowed in AF here in Jersey (New), and I needed a good family flick, the kids are shit at helping me pick.

He’s the US director of the FBI. He just shows up and they let him in. What’re they going to do say no? They just let him in, do the photo op, and that’s that. None of them are thinking about it. Half the dudes on the team probably don’t even know who he is. Hockey players are so insulated, that’s why the young guys always do the worst interviews, their entire life has been hockey, and that’s it.

You can’t wear cages in the NHL unless you have an injury.

Nothing, now.

I had to double check the post, but I’ve concluded that what you said has nothing to do with if.

Yeah, my 8-year-old has the chrome book, but also gets physical homework, paper and pencil. Dunno how it’ll be as she gets older, but I like how it is so far.

I was thinking about trying to find Mavis Beacon and somehow getting it to function on Windows 11. No idea if there’s compatible versions. But I used Mavis Beacon all the time growing up and enjoyed the games, made learning to type (properly) fun.

Right? I’ve seen plenty of people who don’t know how to swing a hammer.

The laptops should be a tool, in addition to other tools. Being well rounded is the best thing you can be.

I read your comment a few times before I understood it. Thank you

And the insurance did end up paying, but nine months later after what is referred to as a legal battle. So presumably these folks had to go into their own pockets for it. Typical bullshit.

I learned the Vail/Morse thing from a Jon Bois video. His videos have taught me a lot of things, some useful, most trivial, but all stuff.

The CD’s (singular) tracks and the CDs’ (plural) tracks. Or would it be CD’s’? That’s my one gripe with putting the apostrophe s for acronyms.

But then when talking about someone getting “all As” in school, it’s easy there to realize what’s being said, but when someone asks “What grades did you get in school?” And you respond “As,” now it’s just the word as.

Grammarizing spoken word is a major part of my job and I think about this shit all the time, and sometimes things conflict, and it’s dumb, it’s all dumb! That’s it!

Avoid it, because it was so good.

Yeah, I’m 38 and remember red pistachios. Also remember finding some sort of worm thing burrowed into one of those red pistachios, while I was sitting at my grandfather’s kitchen table eating pistachios. Didn’t stop me. Well, it stopped me from eating that one. But I’m always leery if a pistachio has a hole in it.

Yeah, agree with everything you said. I let my kids play Roblox. I play with them sometimes, been playing some silly Shawarma game, it freaks them out.

So far, the biggest thing we talk about is this desire of every game to enter your wallet, and I tell them that a game shouldn’t be asking you for money, and now they both get annoyed at games that ask for money. I like to think I’ve created a safe environment for them to play in, and when the environment becomes something else, they ask me about it.

So mainly right now the worst that happens is the game is bullshit and they get mad, and I say hey, this game is bullshit (in more PG language), and we move on.

I firmly believe that prohibition just leads to curiosity. I think it’s impossible to insulate them from shit these days, so I’ll be part of their exposure, and hopefully I can help them learn.

Thanks for giving me a reason to go look at the picture again. I enjoyed the joke, and then you had me enter a second dimension. Meme recycling.
