  1. So you just hang around your house in your pants all day? I think not.
  2. Like Disco, I have a Koi pond (it's a roughly 600 gallon concrete pool). I don't have aquarium fish because I never had any luck with them, but a lot of the things that don't work on an aquarium are "easier" (as in I can throw money at) to implement. I could never get the filtration right on the aquarium and ended up getting algae all over the sides. Don't have to worry about cleaning the glass with a pond and the carp eat the algae that grows on the side. Also, heating the water isn't necessary with carp - they prefer colder water - so I don't need a heater. Other than that, the same basic process applies - you have to recirculate the water at a certain rate to keep the water healthy without having to do a water exchange, which can kill fish quickly. I'm going to implement some flora to pull more nutrients out of the water, though the water clarity is perfect as is. You get a better understanding of filtration when you deal with it on a larger scale: my pond has three-stage filtration, two mechanical and one UV, and adding a waterfall adds gravity to trap the remaining floating algae before dropping crystal clear water backing into the pond. The waterfall adds aeration into the water in addition to the bubbler I have at the back side of the pond. All-in-all It's worked really well.
  3. My girl openly gags at my cheeseburgers and I give her a kiss. (My girl is the orange kitty in my avatar)
  4. No dude: I'm literally dying. I'm stuck at home with Covid and I have nothing to do but sit at my computer in my underwear...waiting for the big reveal. (Ghosty, I'm not really dying. I'm just bored.)
  5. I’m dying here Ghosty.
  6. Happy Birthday!
  7. Forgiveness doesn’t mean you have to relinquish the boundary. It really just means not actively fueling that anger by separating the person from the action.
  8. Ghosty I believe in you.
  9. So, what precipitated this altercation?
  10. It’s been 19 years. He had daddy issues, but he didn’t pass them on to me. I miss him the more I deal with the rest of my family.
  11. I, for one, feel accomplished this week.
  12. That might not have the connotation you think.
  13. But seriously, which genre? Give us a little bit, Ghosty. Just a little.
  14. How long is it?
  15. He wasn't hopped up on goofballs was he? And by that, I mean snorting cocaine because, apparently, snorting is fashionable again in 2024.
  16. I need a new mattress. Valentine literally sinks into it.
  17. Tri tip with a salsa. You don’t need to actually bbq the Tri tip.
  18. Well, they’re hanging out in the firearms section, so you fart at your own peril.
  19. Happy Birthday. Hope things are better for you.
  20. Why would they do that? I might be different because I like to cook, but I would still think you would know better than to do that just for the historical record.
