I know. I haven’t smoked in 18 yrs but those animals have me thinking again.

I didn’t learn this until I heard Post Malone/HARDY’s “Hide My Gun” with the lyric, “If the three times four’s banging at our door, would you stall and let me slip out the back?”
Which overall the whole song almost works as a Luigi theme song.

I thought it came from when there’s police going by you tell people to keep their heads at 12. Don’t look at them or they’ll accuse you of being “suspicious” and want to detain you and run your ID for warrants etc
- Comment on NPC 2 days ago:
I wish the 12 were intellectually honest enough to just walk up and demand “papers”, acknowledging they have fully become a police state.

We all did. The hot moms anyway. The big milfy moms, I just wanted them to make me some food.

This is how I think of it as well. I spell the color with an e, and Gray is a name in my extended family.

- Comment on Imperialism, authoritarianism and oppression is bad all around m'kay 1 week ago:
WWIII hasn’t officially started, as of today. But history may yet point a finger at Biden if his longer range missiles heading towards Russian lands end up being a major factor in it beginning. That’s one hell of a hot potato to pass to the next admin. Certainly Biden received some hot potatoes too. Well see how the next six months go.
- Comment on Imperialism, authoritarianism and oppression is bad all around m'kay 1 week ago:
Take away imperialism, authoritarianism and oppression, and what are we left with? Man I wish you were advocating anarchism, the but I’ve almost given uphope of seeing people understand its wisdom.
- Comment on Trying to retain your sanity while married 1 week ago:
I would say to run, but you’re already married. I get myself out of painting by continuously - and I have to do it all the time because I also run a nonprofit where people are always insane about paint colors - I just say color isn’t my thing, I delegate it to one person (I’d suggest OPs wife) and I don’t get involved or help. If someone doesn’t like ba color, they know who to talk to. And even if they want help I just remind them I don’t care about color and to ask someone who cares to help.
I actually do care, but I disagree with everyone around me so this is just a way of picking my battles. I have chosen not to care about color only because it saves me time and energy.
- Comment on Iraq War was preceded by the largest worldwide non-violent protests in history and the war happened anyway. 1 week ago:
This is why the ruling class pushes gun control so hard. Don’t let them do it.

Not if you need a document with an original signature or official stamp etc.
- Comment on Charities of Employees from "non-profit" I was going to donate too 2 weeks ago:
Damn I’m in the wrong nonprofit lol. Building, activity and pay & benefits for 7 employees come in under $400k total budget/expenses and we have distributed millions and millions of pounds of food in the last few years.
- Comment on I live in the green part 2 weeks ago:
BMI is honestly a terrible tool for individuals, (meh but I get it for larger societal groups). Everything on me is bigger than average. Size 14 US shoe, size 3x helmets. 2x gloves. My wingspan is significantly wider than I am tall (6’5" vs 5’10"). Even my bones are far wider than average. I’m no bodybuilder but I hike extremely steep hikes for fun and at least my ass and thighs have a bit of muscle.
My weight has varied over the years but even when I’m so thin I’m constantly getting questions of, “Are you alright? You’re way too thin.” I’m still just into the overweight category. For me to get to a "healthy"BMI I’d have to be sickly thin. So I just take care of what I think makes me healthy. And at 51 my only medication is a Zyrtec every day but I’m still technically solidly overweight.

I could actually really use a new TV but I’m barely affording groceries. I want black Friday sales on cans of soup and frozen chicken, AND TVs.
- Comment on is rust memory safe for grandma??? 3 weeks ago:
I used to help nonprofits with free or at-cost PCs and to help with that I accepted donations of old stuff. Most was scrap and I’d salvage a few parts and recycle the rest.
One PC was donated from a paint shop. Here’s a picture that doesn’t show everything, but enough. Yes there was rust on the PSU and even parts of the motherboard. Yes it was still running Windows XP and booted up fine. This was 2016.

I guess I’m Americaning wrong. As far as painkillers go, 've only taken one ibuprofen in the last year. I even had a severe gut pain event where they prescribed me some oxy but I never took anything.
- Comment on I'm not worried you're worried 1 month ago:
There’s no question turnout is lower. Both Trump and Harris received fewer votes than Trump and Biden last time around. Neither of them are inspiring. Yeah Trump has a base, but a lot of Republicans don’t like him but some still voted for him. Harris was uninspiring and had a lot of baggage from the last 3 and 1/2 years. She would not have won a primary in my opinion, if Biden hadn’t insisted on going for a second term initially.
- Comment on I'm not worried you're worried 1 month ago:
They just called Wisconsin for Trump which puts him over 270.
- Comment on I'm not worried you're worried 1 month ago:
If Biden hadn’t insisted on running despite his declining mental state, she wouldn’t have won a primary, not very likely anyway. She is uninspiring and she carries the baggage of the struggling/non-existent middle class, housing market, 12 million border crossings etc.
- Comment on Most of the trick-or-treaters have been skipping my house, and I finally figured out why 1 month ago:
Everyone in my area stays outside, no matter the weather. No kids knock on any doors. Also, no one leaves out a bowl, that shit would be gone in minutes. But people are outside with portable fire rings, music, some have cocktails for the adults. It’s the only night of the year all of the neighbors are outside and socializing. Honestly it’s great.

Shooting guns at paper targets, sporting clays and other targets is tons of fun.i took my MIL to a quiet outdoor range to shoot for the first time in her life. A few months later she bought a Glock 17. Reduced capacity magazines because California, but she loves to go shooting.
