You hear the crack of the impact, a quarter second of shocked silence, then simultaneous crying unhappy children. It was really really hard not to burst out laughing because you could see it coming a mile away but it had to happen sometime.

I took the rest of the week off work because my sister is a dummy who moved across the country with her boyfriend and doesn’t have a job or driver’s license and she and the bf broke up and now she has to move back in with our parents. Excited to spend the next few days doing nothing but driving and moving stuff out of a third floor walkup.

Its as bad as I've seen it since they had to turn an entire stepdown floor into Covid ICU.

That show had a stacked cast. Yeah we started watching this a few months ago, but then my GF kept fuckin watching it while I was working and basically blew through two seasons without me so I got lost and fell off it  Season one was extremely fun to watch and we both had our different nostalgia trips because our parents both religiously watched it when it aired when we were both kids. Also yeah, had a hearty lol when Frank Gallagher showed up as a Chief of Surgery, what a great new scam for him!

Joey Freshwater posted:Oof that sucks. We have a huge crawl space that stays pretty constant temp regardless of how cold or hot it gets so we knew we had room. i'll photograph my dumbassery next time i head into the kitchen but it's not that interesting to look at tbh, it isn't stuck like "wedged into a space" or "literally smashed into a wall" though we did come perilously close it's on a landing between two sets of stairs downward, and the ~2 inches of clearance on 2 sides of it are not enough to fit any sort of tooling or manpower to muscle it in any particular direction. there's an exterior door leading to that landing that opens inward...or it would if there wasn't a refrigerator in the way the only sides with any clearance are back up the stairs or the right hand turn down the rest of the stairs fully into the basement. in either event the stairs are hilariously more steep than i remember them being, so even though i have a dolly it's completely useless. if i tried to get under it and bring it back upstairs the dolly needs to be deadlifted up every step bc the rise is bigger than the wheels (this is a no-go i do not know strong people), if i try to get under it and roll it downstairs the stair rise rears its ugly head once again & the drat refrigerator bounces its way down the stairs dragging whoever's on top along with it and both of those theories are moot anyway because of the aforementioned clearance issues. i'm very tempted to just heave on the top of it and let it tip over & surf down the stairs and see what happens. with my luck it smashes through the stairs, crashes into the cement ground & starts leaking coolant everywhere (and it's this fear that has kept me from doing so, hence why it's still stuck)

These are acceptable exceptions (assuming Bird’s wife is OK with this dynamic. It’s psycho poo poo to plow through a season you’re watching with someone else when they’re, like, at work or whatever.

So I finished Onimusha without her haha. To be fair she was way more into Samurai and I was way more into Oni, so it worked out.

I’ve avoided the flu and COVID this holiday season, but I’ve been dealing with respiratory and inner ear infections off and on for a month (On a second round of antibiotics now as everything came back a week after I stopped the first ones) and they can gently caress off.

I've had like 3 or 4 ear infections in my left ear last year. I can still feel pressure in it (which is causing a mild side headache) and had it checked. Went to the doctor, and they said it didn't look infected. There are ear drops you can get that help. But problem is all doctors around here have like a 7 hour wait for urgent care

Back when streaming services didn't exist yet, my wife and I watched all of Battlestar galactica together until one day halfway through the last season she watched the next episode without me while I was working late and then accidentally deleted it from the DVR. There were no scheduled replays, period, no way to watch it for at a minimum some months. She watched the rest of the season without me and I still to this day have never seen the end. Like last four episodes or so. Lol I was so mad

But problem is all doctors around here have like a 7 hour wait for urgent care Yeah, every trip to the urgent care around the corner was 2-3 hours of waiting to be seen. My ear drums were inflamed and swollen, and it was making my neck (Thyroid or something?) swell as well to the point I almost couldn’t swallow. Second batch of antibiotics have my ears feeling better, but my neck is still a bit sore at times, and I’m curious how things will go once I’m off them, as last time I finished the antibiotics, felt improvement but not truly better, and like a week later I was back at the Urgent Med.

We finally got nailed with a "super spreader" event. The holidays went fine, until we returned our grandma to her ALF on the 27th. Her entire floor and half the building had active CoVID rampaging through it. We picked her up on the morning of the 23rd, just before they started all the tests. Did the ALF reach out to us to let us know this? Of course not. What compounded things and prompted some angry emails from my mom and aunts was that the night before we picked her up, (well, morning of technically) the fire alarm went off at 1am. My grandma and everyone did what they were supposed to do, which was go and wait by the door for instructions. No one came and told them anything until 5:30 am. Thankfully, my grandma has a walker with a seat, but some of the others went back in their rooms and just propped their doors open in case fire rescue came. So we jsut chalked up the exhaustion and not feeling well to what any of us would be feeling at 94 years old if we had to stand in a hallway for 5 hours with an alarm going off. They tested her when we took her back and she instantly qas positive. Then my step dad got it, one aunt tested positive while her huband didn't, and then vice versa on another aunt/uncle set. Today my mom has it. Thankfully, my wife and I dodged it, as did a lot of others. The entire group was vaccinated with all the older ones having a recent booster so I am sure that helped.

He has a bad back, so it was just my dad and me. We drove 10 hours, stayed overnight, got a moving truck, then went to their house expecting to throw poo poo in the truck and leave. NOTHING was packed, so we spent about six hours boxing poo poo up with his soon-to-be ex. Since we had acquired another vehicle, we drove back in separate cars starting the 10 hour drive back around 5PM. I had my dad's car with two cats in the back who wailed on and off the entire trip. We did this after our family celebrated early Chrismas, so we got back into town at 3AM on actual Christmas, after which I had another hour back to my house. I know my brother is grateful for it, but it really was an awful experience all around. Hopefully your sister appreciates it.

In her defense I think she was working under the assumption that it was a casual don’t really care nothing else to watch kinda thing for us, until I was like yo what’s all this major character development, where the hell did so and so go, I’m missing all this poo poo dude swickles posted:We finally got nailed with a "super spreader" event.

I’ll cut out most of the personal details because it’s not really mine to share, but GF’s Aunt injured her back several years ago and didn’t once go to PT and instead just complained about it and let her health fail to the point where she fell a couple of months ago and was stuck on the floor for 24 hours until she could get the phone. So GF’s parents called an ambulance, she’s got all sorts of problems, hospital sends her to a nursing home, GFs mom and dad agree to clean her house that looks exactly like a woman who can’t get off the floor and refuses to asks for help’s house would look like So she she rewards them by having GF’s mom who has poor/failing health but actually tries to do something about it, come visit her in the home last week while she knowingly is positive for covid and now her parents have covid and are miserably sick and they’re all pretty much fuckin done with her. Way to totally alienate your family that just wants to help you!

Get Out was a hell of a debut for Jordan Peele. I liked Us but it got compared to his first film too much IMO. Nope really started tapping into his Spielberg influences and was a lot of fun to see in the theater. Now I'm thinking about the new season of True Detective that's coming out this month and how the following seasons after the 1st were not received as well because the debut was such a game-changer.

I know it's not covid, but every single time I've felt I'm developing a head cold, I've turned to whoever my boss is and said that I was going home right then and I'd be back in three days time because I didn't want anyone else to catch it. Even when I got covid, I never left the house until I tested negative and then needed three more days to get physically right
