I mean 98% of them are fine but that memorably bad 2% compel me to say the c word. The person who asked if I was allowed to say Christmas at work went on to explain they were wondering if the owner was an Indian guy. So now I just placate these extremely reactionary people

...like what?

It's not the safest way to play it with the old middle class white people I deal with because some of them get fucking upset if you don't say the word Christmas to them in December. Sometimes they just counter with an overly emphasized "you too, AND HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS AS WELL AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR" but I've had people ask me before if the reason I didn't wish them a merry Christmas is because my workplace has some anti-Christmas policy against it, and happy holidays is a no go because that triggers some people into making a point about how Christmas is the holiday they celebrate.

I just tell customers to have a good Christmas, as little deviation as possible from my standard "have a good" day/night/one

I hoped this was about OkCupid's recent announcement that they are getting rid of screen names and asking you to display your real name

Quit reacting to my posts with crying faces just because everything I talk about is really sad, it isn't helping - no reaction at all would be better than that sad face

Me too. I volunteered to work extra on Christmas and didn't even care enough to request NYE off this year. The hollowing out must be complete, I've gone full husk

Pen the cats up in a bedroom and keep the front door open as much as you can, this will let in bugs so that it can feed

I thought about that but read you have to drive around for awhile for it to work, this leak was so sudden and extreme that I think it would just go right onto the ground. Luckily I know of a legit honest mechanic shop so I'm just going to let them figure it out. I didn't really spend enough time describing the socks guy. When the workers confronted him about where his fucking shoes were he laughed exasperatedly like the Joker and kept trying to go further in the store saying "I LOST THEM, HAHAHA!" and looked very scary

I wouldn't even want a quesadilla from applebees

Jesus christ

Victor Oladipo is going to the Finals!!!

Just another day to me. I'm working a 12 hour shift then back for another 8 that night, should be easy since Christmas

I should add that my housemate's other dog is really smart, the Pet Safe collar wasn't effective on her because she figured out that if she just kept running really fast while being shocked she could get out of range pretty quickly.

She keeps doing this repeatedly Hanging with the neighbor cat

My housemate uses Pet Safe which has worked well for years on her little Chihuahua, it stays in the yard and gets where not to go. It beeps at em when they're getting close to crossing the line so after the first little while they don't get shocked. Installing it seems like an enormous pain in the ass, but I'm lazy. I bought a collar for my dog when I first moved here and tried to show her the perimeter but that involves the dog getting shocked repeatedly until they figure it out, even on the lowest setting I just couldn't do it it was too sad. Now she just runs free and I'm ok with that and since she's small the neighbors are tolerant of it, even though cars are still a risk. If she was a bigger dog I would probably have stuck with the collar tho

Don't be so sure. There may not be any native populations but individuals can cover a lot of ground in their lives and they travel all over. They sometimes get spotted on nature cams in states where they aren't supposed to exist, including NY and throughout New England

Today there was a big ole mess of power steering fluid on the ground waiting for me, featuring special guests awful grinding and moaning noises and a severe burning smell! No idea what the cause is, how much it will cost, or if it will even be worth it to fix!! But hey that's all part of the fun. THIS IS WHY WE DO THIS All on top of the recently replaced water pump, the other really expensive weird replacement part I can't remember right now, and I just bought four brand new tires for the piece of shit~! Not to mention everything else wrong, from the lack of an odometer and gas gauge to the way every possible dash light lights up like a highly concerning Christmas tree made out of pure shit and fuck Feeling really good about holding out on fixing the smashed window right now. Also a guy with just socks on, no shoes came running literally right out of a sewer drain to ask me if I had a cell phone and when I said no he followed me into the store I was trying to kill time at. They made him leave right away for being on drugs and not having shoes but I'll see him again before the tow truck gets here So fucking glad I just re upped on weed yesterday.

Awfully good! Horribly great~

Hell yea Buddy Jr with the assist. I haven't been motivated to play so I'm still stuck in the first half of the game, but I might be able to get it up for some battling just won't have anything new. Just holla

Yes.

I was like damn, I could see if it was a game against the Hornets or something, but the champions...stays all the way to the end of the fourth, then he looks at the score like "aw shit" and bails immediately. I'll probably cry during Ginobili's jersey retirement, assuming they even televise it, so I get it

Who?
