Thanks! Those look pretty cool!

My shirt arrived. It fits perfect and looks great. That was a steal for $8

SEE! If I stay away too long I become all mushy brain not double checking my writing! At least I didn't conga up some flavor.

It appears that the answer to the question "How far am I willing to walk to get some sushi for lunch?" is 12.5km. Totally worth it.

How far is that in freedom units?

Without context, this is one of my favorite recent quotes.

That is a serious haul.

Yes and I also found the answer and it would chill you to your bones. May it never slip out and be known in the world.

When you replace the word 'wand' with the word 'dick' in Harry Potter...

I took the scenic route along the canal between Hogs Back and Bank; it's funny to see ice skaters frolicking north of the locks at Carleton and ducks paddling in open water to the south.

I just had a visit from the sweetest pit bull pup. She looks about half grown and comes up past my knees. She is most all black with some white on her. Gave her a couple milk bones. She is solid and seems really healthy. No collar though. Gave her a lot of petting and she played with me and didn't want to leave haha. Heard about the kids in Atlanta but its all in the raising. Pit Bulls are no worse than any other dogs. Its the owners who make them what they become.

You had a dog come onto your property without an owner or tags?

Welp, so much for meatless month.

Since she has that conger flavor, I'm guessing cannibalism has lost its appeal.

I view that page as more of a support group for the misled or misinformed.

I wouldn't think a kid could get a pea that far up his nose, but there it was.

Yea the ears as well. My sister and I were fans of beans or rubber bands.

What's up with posting rant from a parked car videos? Are cars some sort of privacy studio or thoughts from a shower or something? Or is this some sort of secret order to make me feel inadequate for driving a subcompact because if I tried to put a camera on my visor as an eye of God for me to confess my dissatisfaction to and pointed that camera down at me, either God would be staring into my chest from 2 feet away or I'd have to squish down and hunch forward or possibly lean the seat back all of the way and rant from the prone position and then it look like God was looking up at me and then instead of rant of at God, it would be me schooling the fellow. That's what I need, a camera in my Focus, with the seat all the way back and the camera poised so you can see the mail and straw wrappers and fast food coupons in the passenger seat the fact that I've crawled in the back cleaned the rear window all of twice in ten years. And I could be the one with God's eye, telling y'all how it is but then I'd have to hear my voice. ech Nevermind.

Seriously, why do people do rants from their cars? Why is this a thing?

When rolling out a PC and setting a Time Zone, Easter Island should not be in proximity to Eastern. Who do I lobby about changing that?

My thought was because it's like a sound booth. Turns out this is a fairly accurate thought.

They have to make do since not everyone has an option to rant on OO, it's only for the privileged few

Call Moai tech support (although it will probably be someone from India using a Moai name.)

I doubt they'll be helpful. They get such big heads.

And they can be a bit hard headed.

Sometimes I can't decide if I like you guys or hate you all. I think it's a bit of both, which puts you well ahead of the general populace.

I can't speak for everyone, but I'm not worth the energy to hate. Ignore or be annoyed by worthy is about where I tend to peg on the emotional scale.

Did you have to do the Blow It Out trick? Ours was a little tiny six sided die...

At least it wasn't a d4 or d8... ouch!

Didn't work - it was too far in there. We had to go to the ER to get it removed. Eventually they pushed it through to his throat and he swallowed it. It only took about 4 hours.

This is also why people like to sing while driving. They sound better to themselves.

When you're olde that's a natural part of eating except it just takes seconds to work.

Since almost no one ever parks in the handicap space, my favorite spot is to park very close to it, ensuring a wide berth on both sides.

Chrome's bewilderment at files with a comma in their name is deeply frustrating.

OK. Time for me to turn the Internet off today. FB has a live feed of a suspected cop killer in NOLA threatening to jump off a bridge and the like status thingy is full chalked full of and a constant stream of comments that back up.

Let tomorrow be a better day for us.

As someone who needs every inch of space a handicapped spot provides for a ramp and getting my son's wheelchair loaded and unloaded, I'd really appreciate you stopping this practice.

Parking jerk owned.

You have to park right up next to his driver's side door to really do it right.
