gently caress. I've managed to work about 36 hours in 3 days, between Uber Eats and Amazon.

Took today off. Used Uber Eats to order food. Got cold food and a rude driver. :fuckoff: I don't know if he just took his sweet time picking up the order, or if there were no drivers in the area when the restaurant marked it as complete, but I'm only 2 miles from the restaurant.

the missus and I are rancid-farters and we've been doing this recently:

1. Do you have a firing solution?
2. I have a firing solution
1. Confirm firing solution
2. Coordinates your pants
1. Confirm coordinates my pants. Ready to fire.
2. Send it

I'm not sure if this is something you two do in public, or only in the bedroom...

I like Firehouse subs. Their beef brisket and cheddar is awesome. Minus the mayo of course because gross :barf:

This. Firehouse is my favorite chain sandwich place. And yeah... NO MAYO.

We have a local chain that's pretty tasty too, but they've closed a few of them... the nearest one is half an hour away. :smith:

Darchangel posted:

My wife feels the same way. I usually don't care for mayo, but for some reason, it goes well with pork products, particularly bacon (as in BLT) for me. Usually, I'm mustard, particularly deli mustard, all the way. Vinegar and oil is aces on Italian stuff, though.

No mayo for me. Mustard is what I prefer if I'm making my own sandwich, or eating a burger. But if it's a sub, drench that poo poo in vinegar and oil. Mayyyybe some blue cheese dressing (yes I know it usually has mayo, shush, I try to pretend it doesn't).

I woke up today and felt like myself again after two weeks of dark clouds and sadness. I don't know if it will last but it's so nice to feel sane again.

C.S. Lewis in A Grief Observed (his writings after the death of his wife) says something to this effect. There's pits of despair and things are bleak and hopeless, then there's this moment that comes seemingly out of nowhere where things just seem to get better and things seem a bit brighter.

drat. It's been nearly ten years probably since I've read that book. I recommend you pick it up, honestly.

Good news: My wife got released from the hospital today in good health with normal progress.
Bad news: She picked our son up from school as a surprise, her dad was already there to pick him up and our son convinced him to go to the book fair. She caught him trying to spend $100 bill... We can only figure he got it from the shop, because like most idiots I keep money in my tool box. So, outside of moving the money, what fun punishment/life lesson should I subject him to?

They give tours of the brewery. It's interesting even if it isn't the best beer.

They would, yeah but I feel that a joint putting mayo on EVERY SINGLE BURGER bar the chicken tikka one probably wasn't the best place to be for a burger.

I mean there are quite a lot of condiment sauces out there, how uninspired is using a single one on virtually every single burger?

Good point.

We're doing something like that with the middle daughter (also 9). She didn't steal from us though, she just continually loses everything. It was ~$200 in school uniform gear last year that disappeared completely within three months of purchase, plus all sorts of other random poo poo like books and toys and things. Now she's got a tab running on the fridge (we were lenient and started it at $100) to pay it back. I think she's down to about $80 now and strangely enough hasn't lost anything in about six months

I wouldn't count Coors as "beer".

Pee-flavored water that happens to have just enough alcohol to require you be 21+ to purchase would be a better description.

But seriously there's probably more hours of footage on WWII than there were hours of WWII at this point.

What puzzles me is why it gets rehashed in modern productions when "World at War" is pretty much the definitive series that covers almost all aspects of the war and it was done in the 70s.

My friend asked me to run an errand this morning for his wife who is a jeweler.

He neglected to mention that the errand was driving a ring right into the middle of Sydney's CBD through rush hour traffic so a guy could do :science: to it for 5 minutes. Then getting it back asap.

It was like a LoTR/Transporter crossover.

He also neglected to mention the ring is worth 7 times what I paid for my car.

As long as we get more covering why the whole shitfight started in the first place and how the narrative of OUR BRAVE SOLDIERS FIGHTING FOR DEM FREEDOMS!!!! is in fact a rancid bunch of crap.

The thing that stuck with me is how the soldiers of WW1 were so clear on how loving stupid the whole thing was. So many of them just bluntly say it - they fought for nothing and they were suckered in by lies to give up their lives in a pointless bloodfest. They HATED the patriotism that crept into remembrance services towards the end of their lives.

I would love to be able to say the truth about Gallipoli without being strung up - Gallipoli was a stupid pointless invasion of a country the ANZACS had no quarrel with. The current wave of jingoistic bullshit that surrounds WW1 really pisses me off - No one died for your freedoms, they died in a meat grinder for no good reason at all. And maybe the lessons of WW1 might actually be learnt by more people.
