I'm bartending and I've had one customer since I opened.

I'm getting paid to sit on my rear end, but I really want to mix martinis and make fancy drinks for people :smith:

I'm I'm a dude that love goofy fancy drink but most bartenders scowl when I order them.
Be my best friend?

My favorite drink is a Hot Tamale, which is just fireball, uv cherry, and ginger ale. :unsmigghh:

Ain't nothing wrong with fruity drinks. Just never order drinks which require a blender. Every bartender hates blender drinks

I bought the digital copy of FO4 and despite being 30 gigs, it downloaded in an hour. I booted it up ready to look for my dead gay son and it turns out it only downloaded the SPECIAL videos that play while it downloads 26 more gigs of game. Because it downloads via FO4 and not the PS downloader, i cant play any other games while waiting because FO4 has to run to download the game. :mad:

I have the house to myself, and far harbor downloading on my PS4, but i can't play it until I get home from my very easy second job.

I'm replacing that job with an even easier and better paying job, but it will be a week until they can confirm i've been hired on because they also ran a print ad in next week's paper. I've been told they'll absolutely give it to me, because they asked for me specifically to apply, but they can't formally start me on the schedule until the ad has run for 24 hours.

There was a big fight on the online rpg I am on (with about 10 other people) because one dude decided his character, being so smart, is able to rush into a room, grab the two people inside, throw an explosive over his shoulder to level the exit as they are leaving, then rush out and inspect one of the passed out people AND determine what drug she was dosed with. In the space of one line/turn. The other three people in the scene are pretty pissed but he won't back down so now it's all on hold.

Trying to find a new series to binge watch. Game of Thrones got bad in season 5. Have done Mad Men and Breaking Bad. What next?

My friend has recently become a beauty blogger and her eyebrows are getting more and more terrible. Like straight up thick, square Instagram brows that don't suit her at all but i don't know how to tell her. Also maybe they do look good and I'm just bad at things like this? Oh god :negative:

Fashion is subjective and they probably look good unless they're tattooed on. She can shape them for the next brow fashion acceptance, and in the meantime you should accept her side-shave cut for how it is, because it does actually look good, but only for a flash in the pan.

Tell her that her eyebrow game is great, support her through it, and let her hit the next cycle of fashion as far as makeup goes. If she's squaring her brows, she needs that more than a half-assed wakeup call from somebody who isn't on her fashion radar. Work through it, not against it. Eyebrow game is as fluctuating as season colors.

My 18 year old cat was put to sleep today. She had myriad health problems that developed during this last year, with her deafness and heart murmurs being background to kidney and bladder failure. We couldn't afford time and money to make sure she was well kept after because we barely make ends meet without checking in on every possible break just to make sure she wasn't peeing on everything she rested on.

My FWP is that I'm alone in the house for the weekend, and a deaf cat meows twice as hard to get your attention when she's around.

My house has never felt this empty.

I tossed and turned all night, zero actual sleep.

I got home two hours ago, popped my sleeping pill, laid down immediately to sleep, and haven't had a wink since

I'm stuck in a war of passive-aggressive bullshit like the neighbor who decides the easiest thing to do with the newspaper she repeatedly ran over in her driveway and is now a sludgy wet mass of pulp would be to pick it up and neatly deposit it in a pile on my lawn instead of actually throwing it away.

I really feel like one of those "everyone on the highway is driving the wrong way but me" situations but god drat, whatever happened to basic neighborly courtesy?

The rational human part of me says "toss it in a bag and get on with your drat life, your neighbor is a bitch, so what" but the vindictive rear end in a top hat in my kind of wants to put a camera in the window and make a stink about the bullshit (I'm not actually going to do this because I have a life)

Call in to that paper that that person's household isn't utilizing their subscribing and instead kicking into your lawn

They might get reprieve from their view of junk mail, or else their paper distributor will stop further deliveries

Usually my neighbors have all kinds of mortars going off for the Fourth of July, but I'm sitting on my patio and can't see any. Just a lot of little multi-shot prepacks that don't shoot high enough for me to see.

I drink a lot of V8s because I like the flavor, not for health reasons but because I like them. I recognize it is just sugar water. To make sure you don't end up with a slimy mess at the bottom of the can, you shake them vigorously to make sure its all homogenous.

I just had a can of coke for the first time in a while.
