There are simply too many quotable lines in this article. Amazing
A movie called “The Mayo Conspiracy” won the Best Comedy Feature at the 2015 World’s Independent Film Festival.
Im going to have to watch this film however
- Comment on How often is normal to masturbate? 2 weeks ago:
fellow lady in her late 30’s. Once a day for me, nearly everyday. It takes me about 60 seconds to climax, and I move on to my day. I dont think what youre doing is too much, even if there is such a thing. I can even make myself cum with just thoughts only, if im stoned enough late at night in bed. Ive had some radical climaxing from thoughts alone.
dont compare yourself to others, you good :)

So he’s been in a bit of trouble this week. I was having him do a couple chores each day before he can earn his CD player for the day. Yesterday, I decided he could earn the CD player by reading Men at Arms for 20 mins instead lol. He did it! His gripe, seems silly, but he said he hasnt read them because there arnt marked chapters, so he doesnt know when to stop! The solution was to use a timer to know when to stop ;)

He hasnt read them yet and it makes me sad.

Ive run into this too. How many times Id just walk to work for the 1.5hours instead of taking the bus that took just as long, but would drop me off at work either 2hours early, or 15mins late. so Id just walk it.

I didnt file taxes one year with my kid as a dependent. So I filed two years at the same time. Got back $8K. 8 fucking K. The most money still do this day, I ever had at once. The govt took $3 for my deafaulted, unfinished degree, student loans ($1500 loan, I paid back in total via my tax returns $7500).
So I had $5K left. I used to to move near a friend who had an apt opening near him, it was the same price, but knocked 40 mins off my morning commute to work/daycare and the place was better insulated for heating costs. I didnt waste any money except for paint. The new apartment had orange and PINK walls. orange and pink, oye, I left the orange, but painted the pink, green. Moved and repaired my sitbox car, I think I bought good work shoes too.
all the money was gone in about a month.

Ive cashed paychecks at one point using these placss. I dont think I had a bank account at the time. I dont remember why. And I used to cash them at Stop n Shop, a grocery store. They would do it for a small fee. Then one day, they said they wouldnt cash my checks anymore, because my credit was bad? It made no sense to me at the time.
So for about a year, I used the local sketch ball check cashing place.

tangent, I recently remembered I can make fry chicken.
Got a family pack of chicken on sale, those god aweful giant breat pieces that are not natural. One breast, pounded out to like three sandwich sized pieces. Five chicken pieces pouned out thin- was a lot of Fin chicken. Marinated them for 20 mins in (low sodium) soy sauce. Dredged in a layer of corn starch, knocking off any extra startch so it is a thin coat. And fried em in a combo of canola/avocado oil.
then you can put any sauce you like on em. Absolutely fire. It takes some time to do this yes, but it was so much chicken. The work to me, justifies the calorie bomb fried chicken is. Its still healthy/better than fast food chicken.

it was, the previous place he came from wasnt good, and then this person got the dog without any proper training, and didnt train the dog at all. I told this person not to get thd dog, they did anyway. I felt bad for him, the pup, and used to walk him a lot each day. Then the fight happened, and he attacked me. I didnt blame the dog but the humans involved. There are people who arnt ready to take in a rescue, who still do so, Ive seen it a lot in my personal life. I didnt mean to say you werent prepared for and knowledgable about training and handling, but, a lot of people out there arnt, yet they still pick up dogs.
Ill never take in a pit because what happened to me. I think thats fair. I also dont think everyone should just take in random dogs they dont know how to care for.

You gotta be careful though, The one who bit me was a rescue. The guy who took him in was a complete moron entitled asshole, and I ended up getting bit due to this dudes negligence.

When I was bit by a pit, I was in a fight with his uh, human. The dude was being a dick. The dog looked at me, looked at his “owner” and then lunged at me. I put up my left arm to block my face, thats where he caught me, in my arm. The guy jumpped on the dog, started punching it in the head (this guy was a complete moron) and he wouldnt let go.
I played dead. It was isntict, I dont know. After what felt like enterity, I just, took out a deep sigh, pushed all the air from me, went limp. the dog let go, the guy whos dog it was threw him in the bathroom and locked him in there, and I went to the hospital.

I dont hate putbulls, I am however weary of them, because I was bit by one at 24… I didnt blame the dog, but its human countetpart(s).
My sisters Pug used to bite people, I do hate pugs, for many reasons, as I dont think they should exsist, the poor things.
- Comment on ‘Children were calling for their mummies’: UK pupils struggle in 40C-plus classrooms 2 weeks ago:
Which is garbage reasoning because this is true in the states also, and yet, the last two weeks of school where I am we were in a heat wave, and four of those days they called for early dissmisal/half day due to heat, and sent the kids home at noon. Many schools dont have cooling outside of the offices (another issue), but you cannot learn (nor teach) when its too hot.

- Comment on BDSM 3 weeks ago:
These are my favorite moments as well.
last saturday, I heard a thunderstorm rolling in just at sunset. A sat on the floor of my porch to see the sky, and I swear (maybe it was the pot), I had a spiritual moment. From the neighborhood, you could hear the local population setting off the small fireworks, further in the distance you could hear the larger fireworks going off, and then here comes mother nature with hers. The thunder started before the rain, it was purple! Purple lightning! I had never seen it before! I tried to get a photo, but failed, so I just sat and watched until the purple changed to blue, and the rains got heavy. Just, beautiful.
I love watching the land and all ita creatures.

- Comment on This Apple Lie at the grocery store 4 weeks ago:
apple crumble or apple oatmeal? an apple oatmeal bowl would take less than ten mins to make, an apple crumble longer but then you …could eat half the pan like you want to. .
you can usually only have have 2/3: convenience, budget, quality. Pick two. A homemade apple oatmeal bowl might hit all three markers though.
what I would do, buy: A container of quick oats, a bag of apples, cinnamon, cane sugar… uh… Yeah. In a microwave bowl pour a tablespoon of sugar (or less or more whatever, its early), a shake of cinnamon, cut an apple (skin on for fiber) in to cubes right in your hand or on a small plate/cutting board, add it to the bowl, place about a cup of the quick oats on top, fill with water (maybe half a cup? maybe 3/4 cup? or read the oat box find out how much ur to use), Stir, then microwave it for like, two mins and eat the shit.
No it wont be fucking rock your socks off, but ita quick easy food that didt cost much.

- Comment on Anon's lil bro goes through his first break up 5 weeks ago:
When I used dating sites, seeing a guy’s shirtless, muscled profile pic was always a turn off, if not a red flag in itself.
I always felt this way too. Not only did I assume they would nit pick my body, because they seem to want perfection, I couldnt help but imagine they would at some point scare me if they ever got upset with me.
A friend of mine had a 17 year old son who just got broken up with for the first time. My son, was only 5 at the time, but the teen said to me, “make sure you teach him how to handle a breakup, I wasnt expecting any of this”. He shortly after tried to tell me the earth is flat, with split screen tiktoks as his reference. So, we know what road he was on. The kid was angry, confused, and hurt. It made me very sad. Ive now opened the conversation with my 13 year old about dating and break ups just recently. Im do my best to prepare him.
The chances you meet your life partner in the first shot is SO low. Everyone gets broken up with at some point, best to be prepared for it.

someone died on a man drag of road at about 3pm one day right before christmas. Car accident. I got out of work at 6 and had to take the road home. There was this absolute prick speeding, weaving through traffic and being dangerous. Speeding to the gas station, so I pulled in behind him. I told him somone died just hours earlier on this road from dangerous driving, someone lost thier son right before christmas and asked him to follow traffic laws, and slow down.
he goes, “sweetheart, I got places to be”. I raised my voice, “so does everyone else, that doesnt mean you can speed and potentially kill someone, youre not special”. drove off.
“I got places to be”
people are so selfish.

Im in connecticut and my govenor is up for primary. He’s done okay, but you can tell he is trying to compete with the younger fella up for the D primary. I hope the younger fella wins, but in the meantime 70ish old Lemont is trying to make headlines with “proposals” (nothings passed) that are based on policies that would benefit the working class.
I love to see the fear. I should write the old man and ask him to endorse his younger canidate. Near certain these guys just dont want to give up their comfortable positions of power due to some psycological desire.
