I don't even want to fuck with big publishers, but goddamn I want to look at this government lady's binders of book deal data. Said it took her 200 hours to put together. That's some Amy from Brooklyn 99 type of energy.

Stress buying this Biscoff dark chocolate cookie butter bar was not a bad decision. Very nice and rich. It's chonky so the extra buck over other bars isn't too painful. 

all I can think of when I hear "biscoff"

Honestly, this was kind of my reaction when I saw my first jar of cookie butter in the store. It was a life changing event for me.

Hate to say it but the more I play Mega Man 3 the more I discover on how much I dislike this game. I think I might have overlooked the flaws because of how much I loved the soundtrack.

Damn. I thought it was a great game, but I didn't like the soundtrack as much as MM2.

What's wrong with China, doesn't seem so bad relative to the rest of the global power structure

You do realize I'm Japanese, right?

Besides that point, have been paying attention to the banking crisis going on right now? That's really fucked up. They don't have FDIC like America, so a lot of Chinese citizens don't have access to their entire life savings. And they're supposed to be "communist." 🙃

I don't know if I've just been lucky or if this an exceptional year for them, but the peaches have been simply amazing. Ditto the cherries.

People like to make fun of James Hetfield for all the "YEAH"s in his songs, but no one does the same for Rob Zombie.

Remember White Zombie's mega hit More Human Than Human? Listen to it and take a shot every time Rob goes "Yeah!"

German has schadenfreude, but Japanese also has a similar saying. 他人の涙は蜜 (ta'nin no namida wa mitsu) "the tears of another person are honey."

No wonder. 🙃

I had to go to the magistrate's office to plead not guilty for failing to stop at a stop sign, and right before the office I had to to wait for a turn. Someone ran the stop sign going over 40mph, and if I hadn't been cautious I would have been hit. The irony of life. 🙃

Always cite safety in breaking traffic laws.

make shit up… fuck they do it.

I got out of a failure to negotiate a lane, maintain lane, and speeding… I stated that the car in front of me stopped suddenly and I swerved to prevent an accident and sped up to not cause issues behind me….

walked out like a pimp

Nah, I'm not too worried. This isn't my first citation. The cop seemed nice and just told me to plead not guilty and everything will be fine. He seemed genuine, and my gut has never failed me about cops yet. Waste of time still, but whatever.

How can some people act like they are so intelligent but consistently spew dumb shit, I’m thinking it’s because not enough people call them on their bullshit.

If the cop genuinely believes "just plead not guilty and you'll be fine," I have to wonder why he even bothered to stop you.

Who knows? Most likely, the worst case scenario is that I pay a smaller fine with no points added to my license. I know the cops in that area like to do that. Easy way for the municipality to make money, I guess.

As a man who has dealt with more than a few traffic citations, some bogus, some not. If the cop shows up to court and you plead not guilty, it's going to trial... you'll lose and court fees will be on you. 

If he's in that courtroom and has you dead to rights, my advice would be plead guilty and pay the fine. Contesting it in futility will cost you. If he's not there, then yeahhh....not guilty all the way.

Do what you want tho.

Was struggling to find anything that is open 24 hours a day now. Needed pedialyte at 12am, and some items that would be easy on a tummy, but learned that absolutely nothing that could provide pedialyte was open and wouldn’t reopen until 6am, even Walmart… guess didn’t ever need it before, but there I was last night.

Yeah, the only thing open 24/7 here is the Love's Truck Stop.....Incidentally, you can get some basic forms of formula there at one time....Not sure about pedialyte tho.

But yeah, mfers here had a late night "picket" of Walmart because it wouldn't open.....I'm like, who saw y'all if it was closed....Turns out they still employ 24/7...just aren't open that time....The stockers, janitors and whatnot can finally do their jobs in peace.

Which is fair, I get it. Just hits when you didn’t have a plan for it, and that’s on me quite honestly.

I think the only things open past midnight in our area now are drug stores, McDonalds, and Taco Bell.

I feel so bad for the folks who worked on Infinity Train.

My mother just came back from Japan, and she thinks it may be cheaper to live in Japan these days. That's right, an island country with few natural resources and heavily dependent on imports is probably cheaper than America. America has become a huge fucking scam.

Data tells the story… she’s right at face value for sure.

Lol, become....the minute they etched those words that all men are created equal, the scam was evident

More on the topic of getting ripped off in this country, my mother bought me a shirt in Japan and I noticed the fabric was considerably thicker than American shirts. The shirt couldn't have cost more than 25 dollars . . .

How much of Rocky Horror Picture Show was scripted and written and how much was just improv? Because… I get the songs but the reactions are subtle to say some of, if not a lot was actual improv
