Never underestimate the stupidity of America. I learned the lesson with my 10 years at Apple.

I was talking about getting your hands on a Steam Deck, but…..congrats on THAT, too. Serious feat.

Japan was like “All right, let’s showcase the best music from our country for the world.” *playing JRPG musics* Gamers everywhere:

I have seen it. I saw it done for….I don’t want to say the right reason, but…..Buddy just said it… This is why the guy removed it. He kept getting hit on while he was (very obviously) waiting on his wife. Like it was obvious he was waiting on someone, and women kept approaching him and talking to him. Took off his ring, and it was like instant Thot-B-Gone. Put it back on when he saw his wife come in the door.

Wow. You got old all of a sudden. Congratulations on that, though. That was a serious feat.

I……I…..I’m….Shit, that’s good.

Yep. The woman who was promoted to manager was died over this, too. It’s fucking dumb.

45. It’s easy to warm up. I’m in a house that is constantly 80-85 degrees right now because of an idiot. So yeah, 45.

They said the same thing for me. I never brought one, nor did they ask for it. I think they have that as a boilerplate legal thing for CYA purposes. The shots (LULZ autocorrected to “shits” when I first typed it) were free. I think they ask just in case you have a reaction. I feel like this was the main thing they needed. They asked for my ID, SSN, phone number, and address, which are all standards on medical forms that I’ve dealt with/filled out.

Hah

Wait for my body to pass out from exhaustion. I am a chronic insomniac. So I have trouble sleeping. I also have sleep apnea, so sleeping doesn’t happen for very long.

Straight lines. I don’t have a riding mower. Straight lines are more efficient, anyway.

………No cake or grand gesture? Hmm

Yep. Poor Man Nachos are amazing. Even sober.

I blame mollusks, because FUCK mollusks.

I have over some chips.

Okay, this shit happens. I lived it for a decade. MacBooks tend to have monitor issues due to the hinge and cables being all together right there at the vent in the back. It’s a pain in the ass, because they improved (read: fixed) it when the SSD version of the MacBook launched a LONG time later. It’s also a pain to fix, because I had to take the ENTIRE display and hinge apart to adjust or fix ANYTHING other than hard drive, RAM, or battery on that bastard. I used to HATE regular MacBooks because of that bullshit. Give me a MacBook Pro any day, much easier to repair. Apple draws a line when it comes to their technology and software updates. They are aware what their hardware can take, and try to draw the line at a (somewhat) reasonable spot at which the hardware just can’t handle it without major speed issues. Typically, with a Mac, it’s at the 6-8 year mark (which is generous, given how fast technology moves). With the phones, it’s normally at about 5 years (again, pretty damn generous, knowing how phones are basically disposable at this point). iOS 13 doesn’t exist anymore, because they have moved on past it to iOS 14. (They have announced iOS 15 already, but haven’t released it in the wild.) If you miss too many updates with iOS, you wind up in this kind of situation. My recommendation is to get you phone updates at a store (which will do it for free). Just remember to (and I CANNOT stress this enough) back up your shit up first. If it’s just the monitor that is broken, you can get the display, back panel, and hinge repaired. Downside to this is that the repair itself is usually 50-85% of the cost of the unit. Check to see if you have any repair places close to you that have parts available. You might get lucky. Also, back up your data before the repair.

Yay.

Until I pass out. Or die.

Like I said “some”. It is relative. Also, vaping has its own issues, only if done stupidly. I like the idea and implied reasons. It’s tailor made for this kind of situation. Oh! Also, I’ve always wanted to ask: Are flavors worth it? Meaning, do people actually like them in vapes?

Yeah. I know that feeling. Felt it during winter. Then, realized I have shit to flush, and got to it.

Congrats. Enjoy some of the fringe benefits, like getting some taste, and smell back. Also, yes. Kids, old people, and the world ARE that annoying, even now. Sorry, it’s just how it is.

At least she (over)cooks them…..

I just realized that Jay-Z’s Blueprint album is 20. Fuck.
