Being pathetically horny while having a puritanical sense of public morality leads to a lot of disgusting sex pests.

getting really into fentanyl

Tbf opioid highs are the best feeling you'll ever have and if you do enough you won't even notice when your life falls apart.

I’ve heard fentanyl gives you a fake plastic bullshit high with no euphoria and it lasts like an hour. you can’t get heroin anymore either. it’s like… uh, idk. HFCS? microplastics?

It's not that you can't get heroin, it's just that pound-for-pound it makes more business sense for cartels to smuggle fent. But the whole fent thing makes it too risky to buy hard drugs on the street anymore because the street-level idiots keep cutting literally everything with it.

Non-Americans are always whining about how they hate Americans but then complain that we’re constantly murdering each other with guns and it just feels like there’s no pleasing you people.

tbf we're murdering some fairly sympathetic victims. If someone hosed down the board of Blackrock or Wells-Fargo we'd probably get at least a curt nod.

I like to call Canadians American, lets face it, they basically are.

Is there anything of interest there?

I enjoy walking by the burnt-out remains of the 3rd Precinct, and if you're coming in for a visit from outside there are worse places to wind up, but if you're bound and determined to visit the Midwest why wouldn't you go to Chicago instead?

US gift giving culture is super hosed up. Theres this drive to give people something! ANYTHING! and it doesn't matter if the person absolutely doesn't need or want that thing. It took me a decade to get my mother in law to stop buying us random loving garbage she saw in JC Penny or where ever and to kill off the family white elephant which was entirely "just spent 25$ on junk and bring it and we will all try to make jokes about it and then it will all go in the garbage as soon as we get home"

This is also super loving hardcore in pretty money tight groups too like no please do not put yourself in debt for holiday gifts. It is absolutely not worth it in any way.

If you want to buy me something because you genuinely saw I didn't have a i really needed or I expressed a serious desire for it or something, sure. Cool. Go for it. But otherwise just dont just buy something for me because im a check box on a list. I'm an adult. If I dont get a gift im fine and it doesn't hurt my feelings. Im also an adult though and I just buy poo poo I need myself.

Once upon a time I was at the state fair and since it was the last day this guy was trying to offload this 5' tall brass copy of King Tut's mummy case for $200.

I bought it and had it crated and shipped out to my BiL. Sent him a prybar and a hammer the week before with no note. Middle of the afternoon he gets this gigantic crate with the mummy case in it.

That loving thing was dumped on various family members for years until my uncle hauled it out to the middle of the woods, stood it against a tree, and left it there.

Best purchase of my life.

I think the premise of the Bob's Burgers pilot was something like this.

Bob's was originally supposed to be about a family of cannibals who got meat from Mort's Mortuary and fed it to the community. It was good that they did a rework because that show doesn't sound like much fun.

I like celsius because it takes me by surprise. Like, some Australian will tell me, "gently caress me, mate. It's 43 degrees out and I feel like I'm dyin'!" And I'm like, "43? That's a nice day in November here. Just let me convert celsius to farenheit and... JEEEEZZUS!"
