My now ex said “you forgot to ask for my number”

Last I saw were metal core but rubber coated.

It’s been decades since I saw the game- does it even exist anymore?

My kids. It randomly selects a photo from those containing either of my kids

My first car was my Dad’s old Chevette: we’d occasionally go on drives with a family of 6 plus dog. 6 people learned to drive a stick on that little car. My brothers and I started learning how to work on cars by installing an eight track player. At one point I replaced the springs and didn’t need a spring compresser. My little brother who got more into fixing cars said it’s great to work on because “it’s the only car I can pull the transmission and hold it one handed while still working on it”.

Even at the time, we all knew it was a crappy car, but we all learned to drive on it, all learned to fix cars on it, and we kept it on the road far longer than it deserved, with far more miles.

Yeah, I can see this. My analogy was working in a campus dining hall. Everyone else hated working dish room but I loved it. So satisfying to keep up with a lunch rush, feed the machine as fast as people got done eating.

The floor was always covered with slime and water, but once I learned to walk on it, I could walk on anything without slipping for years after. It was noisy and hectic and rushed, but we could skate in with a huge cart of dishes and gave the satisfaction of turning into clean dishes and going back out almost as fast. Speed was paramount so even if you dumped a cart of hundreds of dishes, that’s just teasing, clean it up and work even faster to catch up again. FOOD FIGHTS! Every day someone would start a food fight in the dishroom, but since we were all covered in mess anyway no one cared. I remember it as a fun break from studying, with side effects for great balance and handling slippery floors. I imagine my roommate remembers a lot more stench on me and my clothes than I ever noticed, and I’m sure it would have been a horrible job if it lasted longer or if I had to work more hours.

I loved those things when I was a kid. So much fun to throw. We also had metal horse shoes

When we rebuild government, maybe it will actually improve service as we prioritize what is important now vs what was important historically

This would be a disaster for me: I have to eat before going to the grocery, otherwise it’s insane what I get

Peanut butter. Just peanut butter. Normally I’ll have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch but when I’m stressed I might forget the jelly and bread

It’s probably a step up that it’s no longer all carbs or all sweets. It’s also used to be Kraft Mac and cheese, but I can no longer go back from real Mac and cheese

I keep meaning to make sticky rice at some point. I also tend to eat rice with chopsticks at Chinese restaurants, but anywhere else the rice is too loose

One complimented my bladder, so I guess that spleen seems mighty good about now

Oh shit, you are a goddess among mortals! Carrot cake is one of my all time favorites so I keep trying it despite being disappointed every time that someone put raisins in it. It’s just mean.

No advice but you’re not alone.

My teen has been having sleeping issues recently and exercise seems to help quiet his mind so I’m he can sleep. The other day he got up at 2am and ran 8 miles before he could sleep.

But I’m the opposite. Any activity, any eye focus, any organized thought, and I’m likely up for good

I pay for two news subscriptions, and I’d like into invite any of y’all who can afford to, to do similar

I’ve had better results by including “man” in my searches to find the man pages, but man that makes for some questionable looking searches

Thanks

One of my favorite grocery store salsas is spicy mango!

Currently I have a spicy pineapple salsa but that’s not as good because it’s “white” salsa, no tomatoes

This is one of the reasons I need to set up Linux at home. I use it at work but who knows what the flavor of the week is?

At this point I can’t tell the difference between yum and rpm and apt and dnf

Depending on state, healthcare applies to spouses but may not for long term partners. You can’t do that with a will or trust

You also get tax benefits

Getting married should only be expensive if you want it to be, although too many people fall for the peer pressure.

• For me I was overwhelmingly in love, ready to declare it to the world and willing to pay anything for the one big party of my life. That may not have entirely worked out, but was how I felt at the time
• My best friend just got married for reasonable cost. Still had a big party, but it was 40 people in a park, and we went to a restaurant after.
• Another friend got married inexpensively, maybe. Was it the $100 actual cost, or do you count the week in Vegas?
