rants Haters/Complainers: Legacy of Spleen
katt_goddess replied to mthor's topic in General Discussion
Playing with or eating? Because it's not a food no matter how edible it appears. Play-Doh is more edible. Fondant is a LIE. I want ice cream for my owies but only have squid jerky. Squid jerky is not a substitute for ice creams. -
the signs that you are getting old
katt_goddess replied to Distortedreasoning's topic in Free-For-All
I seriously would if I could. Kitties should always be in pairs at least to keep each other happy when the Treat Dispenser is at work and / or buying more treats. But my current monster was raised by raccoons and has never accepted the idea of other kitties sharing her space. I have to settle for beanie babies or something. -

Dude, one year there were like 4 hatchday threads to me. Because apparently I'm so old I might get too tired to scroll down to see if there are any such threads. I'm still crabby that AARP doesn't send stickers with their spam anymore. What the hell else am I supposed to put on my walker? -

Colored lengthening mascara. Someone is going to go try this now. You know you are old when the peanut you babysat for now has kids of their own...in college. -
I have a blue jay somewhere around here. The first in almost 20 years [ I swear, I haven't seen or heard a blue jay in forever ] . I'm hoping that means that I'll start seeing goldfinches again. They used to be absolute flocks of them when I was little but nothing in so long now. Give your crows the foods to keep them around. Unless you have owls around that you like better because they will bounce off each other until one or both are gone. That Rick & Morty episode wasn't lying about that. Maybe you'll even end up with one that can talk. They are really smart and it happens sometimes without humans doing horrible adjustments to the crow directly. I had a mated pair as buds when I was younger and the male could speak. He would yell 'SHUT HELL UP' at various people but especially traveling preachers which was extra hilarious.

When you start your day with ice cream and booze...
katt_goddess replied to Mix's topic in Free-For-All
I have tried both. I'm still waiting for a new fluffy pillow to drop out of a ceiling pipe or a free air-trip via magic pneumatic tubes. I'm am feeling ripped off. -
I don't know if it's considered 'old timey' but I make my own elderberry syrup [ since it's suddenly a thing again ]. 1 tablespoon dried elderberries 1 tablespoon dried ginger bits 1 tablespoon dried cinnamon chips Fill small pot with water, toss dried bits in, bring to boil and boil for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to simmer and simmer for 5 minutes while stirring to keep things from clumping or burning on the bottom. Turn off heat, cover, and let steep for at least 30 minutes. I usually go for 45. Pour through cheesecloth and strain all liquids out. Stir honey into the mixture to taste, making sure it dissolves. Store in fridge to keep fresh longer. It's not always easy to get cinnamon in chip form around here so I have a marble mortar and pestle to get everything to the size I want.

katt_goddess replied to Mix's topic in Free-For-All
I now want ice cream and pop. But it's late and cold and I'm in my pjs. Twix, however, has changed something. I don't think it's my taste buds because I will eat all the sugars but Twix changed something somewhere. If you can find the peanut butter ones, they still taste good but the regular and the cookies-n-cream ones seem off. -
I take all foods back to my cave to eat the way nature intended.

Squidbillies...the Final Season...
katt_goddess replied to katt_goddess's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
-
Well damn. I think I might need to actually look at the arcade in the mall near me now and see if they have anything that good. I used to clean house on the claw machine [ provided the prizes weren't wedged which is cheating ] - handed out toys with candy on Halloween ages ago when kids actually trick or treated around here.

Squidbillies...the Final Season...
katt_goddess replied to katt_goddess's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
I still think more votes should have gone towards a sentient butt zit. Or at least people tossing out their ideas for the hell of it. It has been REVEALED. Blum would have been hilarious for the troll factor. George Lowe for the ad libs that you know he would have gone shooting off with. Compared to those two, I will say I'm meh on the final choice but it could surprise me just the same. -
He has to actually make the effort. Writing 'fart' after every math question is not acceptable.

...yep, the End is Nigh...so get in them there votings now while you still have a chance! If you've been sleeping under a really comfortable rock [ or just don't care which works too ] , a re-cap of the events are as follows. Dolly Parton made a comment in support of Black Lives Matter. Unknown Henson decided to unleash his inner Early Cuyler on Twitter and at Dolly Parton. Which...really did not go well because Dolly is one of those people that hurts no one and helps others whenever she can because she remembers what being poor and having to make do was like. In short, Unknown Henson's thumbs twitted a check that his ass could not even begin to pay and now he's supposedly off explaining Ben Garrison cartoons to Ben Garrison or something because he is NOT the Early Cuyler. Hence your chance to vote for what you think is the most likely reveal this season. So get them votes in. No wrong answers until November 7. Or if someone slips their leash and says something on the record which is possible too. Buncha loud drunks. Discuss!...

anyone else just not seeing the "labor shortage"
katt_goddess replied to nameraka's topic in Free-For-All
Every job should be straight forward about what they will start you at. Let there be room for advancement / raises based on actual performance but be upfront about that starting wage. If you can't, you look like you are trying to hide something and it's probably something that would bite you in the ass the second it goes public. We don't ask about prior salary at my store. It's not considered remotely relevant to getting hired because we tell you up front what the starting wages are for seasonal / part time and full time. If anything goes up for the average employee starting, everyone goes up. After the wage research resulted in raising the starting wages for people, everyone non-management who was already working got insta-raises too to match the new normal. -

katt_goddess replied to nameraka's topic in Free-For-All
When I was doing wage research on the area in order to try for getting our starting wages raised [ which at least worked even though we still can't get decent people in ] , there were places that wouldn't even say what they were going to start at or what would be required because pretty sure they were changing their starting wage based on the person's looks and gender and didn't want anyone to officially state that was happening. Hey Taco Bell. Just say your official starting wage and be done with it. You serve powdered meat product with hot sauce. The job isn't a state secret and neither should what you are willing to pay be. -

katt_goddess replied to nameraka's topic in Free-For-All
We are currently short about 20+ seasonals [ and it's possible for a seasonal to become part-time / full-time here because we do lose people over the holidays due to winter graduations so seasonal is actually a good thing to be because you get the hours and the training and if you are good, you could stay on ]. We are also paying more per hour than most of the other hirings in the area for seasonal / part-time. But we get applications that look like they were filled out with a crayon, incomplete applications [ just putting your name and partial phone number on there doesn't count as an application ] , applications listing 5 jobs in 4 months, applications stating they want full time pay but list availability as a few hours a couple of days a week - NO WEEKENDS, and of course the dude who turned in an application and then showed up high as a kite and tried to stab people because he wasn't being allowed to shoplift shit. Just because it doesn't look like there's a shortage doesn't mean there isn't one. It just means the current employees are running their asses off in order to keep up appearances. -.-; -

Mob Psycho 100 gets third season confirmed
katt_goddess replied to Jman's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
I don't know. Having a third season going into production seems like a good time to aim for the second season for Toonami. Build up hype on basic and roll into the third season. -
Vague colorblindness - reds especially start to fade out when I'm tired and since I haven't watched the show, I just assumed they were red to stand out more in a pastel environment. Should have got that Anbu mask when you had a chance. Then you could be a ninja and steal all the kids' snickers.

Nope, he likes to be 'weird' . -

He's not Jewish although the question has popped enough plenty of times over the years. He's never specifically said anything about whether or not he follows any specific religious system other than that he isn't Jewish since so many people kept asking. I would say he's non-denominational with an interest in all the things that make a culture a culture. 'Jewfro' happens. If he cut his hair, it would 'fro up again - the length keeps it curly rather than frizzy and makes it easier to manage. And then it would be 'Evil Weird Al's hair be like nom-nom-nom [ picture of mass of hair eating combs, poodles, and potentially small children ] '
