Thats a shame, woad makes for excellent war paint.

When the face goes under water it triggers the mammalian diving response. Tell folks your god did that and they'll be all about that conversion.

Shitposting. We call it shitposting.

Me- "What, is there something wrong with playing the same 5 games over and over again?" Steam- "Well no, but I mean, you picked up Assassin's Creed Black flag on sale for like $2 last christmas. It's supposed to be an incredible game, figured you might like to try it?" Me ".... we'll see."

@wacky1980 here's what i have so far. Sure is a pretty color at least. And its making my basement smell of blueberries.

I'm planning to rack at about 3 weeks depending on how my bubbles are doing, i'm going to sample it then. After i get it in the second carboy i'm just going to let it be for a while (assuming the first sample isn't disgusting), then sample again before bottling. Some of the advice ive seen recently is to put your fruit in a nylon so you can steep it like a tea bag, so i might check that out for my next one. The new kit has like a 5 gallon bucket for brewing but i don't know if I want to start on that puppy until I know what I m doing.

In any case my next recipe is going to be an acerglyn with apple and cinnamon. Which would probably be more appropriate for October anyways, but all i had handy the first go-round was blueberries.

That calms me a bit, though one of the fellows i watched on YouTube said "get all the fruit out of there after a week or you're risking mold!" That's why i was so eager to rack it out. Still worried it will be terrible, not super sure about doing the gift baskets for the family idea. Thinking about just starting a second round right away maybe using that instead? Potential issues with that being a reduction of fermentation time (you said i should be fine with my current timeline so that shouldn't be much worry) and doing a second attempt without knowing exactly how my first one turned out. Don't know what i need to fix yet.

That song was dope. Very much in style with the Talking Heads.

Yeah that's pretty close to our situation, only extend the times. We forgot to put our registry info on our stuff because we totally blanked on the fact that folks will be getting us stuff.

Eminem beat you to it.

We both dislike popcorn.

This is what keeps me up at night. Part of me says "Kill it, kill it now it won't be good. Destroy this batch and don't talk about it. Start again." But I'm a big ol' worry wort, you know that.

I just get so mad sometimes.

Magical Sleepover U.

I need a dragon statue for my garden, but nooooo.

Technically, we did a courthouse shotgun wedding last year for financial reasons, but our actual ceremony/celebration thing that people are invited to is this year. We've had one wedding yes, but what about second wedding?

Got one, don't have space for another.

Those are nice, I'll give you that one. Wife wants a new dish set. I mean we've got more cups and bowls than our cabinet can fit, but I suppose we can just destroy them all because that's consumerism.

We just bought a new toaster too. You know what I would like? More counter space in the kitchen.

1. Fuck keurig what's the point in brewing just a tiny little bit of coffee? 2. We just bought a new coffee pot and I've got so many kitchen accessories we've gotten over the years that we've never used (waffle iron, food processor, blender, all just sitting in the boxes) 3. Same with lamps believe it or not. We have so many extra lamps in this house I took one apart to use it as the base for a globe I made.

So far I have a microwave. Our current microwave is pretty old, came with the house. Also I accidentally put a fork in there the other day, don't tell the wife.

My fermentation is still going wild here (totally forgot to add yeast nutrient [the more i look into it, the more i think i did a real hatchet job on this thing] but i figure all the fruit i got in there's giving it plenty to munch). I'm terrified of mold though.

Laighing predates humanity. Rats have the ability to laugh. Here's something crazy though- chimps have 2 different laughs, individual and social laughs, just like people. An individual laugh is like when you're at home watching youtube and you see a hilarious video. Or when a chimp is running around with a stick having a blast. A social laugh is the laugh you give when somebody tells a joke that isnt great but you and everyone else still give them a chuckle so they know you got it. Or like when a chimp is running around having a blast with a stick and one of the other chimps looks at him and laughs. Like, steve the chimp is playing with the stick and laughing and james the chimp says "yeah-ha steve, looks like you're having a blast man. Rock on bro!"

Ok so i got a bit excited about racking, got my timing mixed up. Its only been down there a little over a week. So i'mma let it go for a while longer.
