I got poison ivy pretty bad one time, and discovered that very hot water in the shower directly on the rash is one of the best things I’ve ever felt. And it also completely stops the itch for like 12h.
- Comment on Test ride 1 day ago:
Had a friend in Philly who had his bike stolen. Custom paint job, BMX, it was his bike, no doubt about it. He knows who stole it too, sees a shady character every day, and eventually sees him riding it. He yells at the dude, that’s my bike, and I’m going to get it back.
One day he sees it chained up to a sign. Happens to be right near a hardware store, and goes in, gives the worker his phone as collateral for some bolt cutters, goes out, cuts the chain off, and takes his bike back.
This all happened while we were at a party at his house, and he walks in all triumphant, it was pretty spectacular shit.

I got my watch on stuff often enough. It’s why I don’t opt for the super expensive ones.

- Comment on Post title lol 1 week ago:
But plenty of millennials did for sure. I’m 1987, was never a loler myself, but am certainly familiar enough with it.
And admittedly, I have used it. My buddy and I used to sit in his room playing red alert 2, and one of us would do something dumb and the other would type “lol,” and then look across the room with a straight face. So I always imagined someone typing lol to be doing so with a completely straight face, the complete opposite of laughing out loud.

In the words of my good friend Timmy: What’s going to happen to you?
That stupid question resulted in some fun nights. And also some uncomfortable nights.

Yeah, Boston is chaos and it is super easy to get lost. And you’ll have two roads converging and splitting and you gotta just hope you’re in the right place!
- Comment on Security lines at JFK airport, NYC 3 weeks ago:
I flew out of EWR on Friday and my flight left (the gate) on time. Now, we took off 30m late because of the traffic at our final destination, but security was 10m and we were on the plane on time. It was incredible. The longest wait was to get the kids some chicken fingers, that was like 30m.

Yeah, my peppers got too much calcium and had black ends. Cucumbers got too yellow. Cabbage worked fine, but I fucking hate cabbage. Beans were seriously lacking. Shit certainly isn’t easy, and it’s way to easy to think, hey, I can do this no problem!

I played lacrosse in middle school, and when we’d stop we’d try taking the caps from our Gatorades and rolling them on the windshield of cars next to us.
I can’t stand littering now, I do town cleanups, and maybe it’s my way of trying to undo my stupidity.
- Comment on Soft 4 weeks ago:
They’re still shit. I bring my young kids to the park and around 430 the 12-15 year old kids roll in and are an absolute menace, like clockwork. Littering, cursing loudly, riding their bikes in between the play equipment.
I think there’s a certain age where shitheads will always be shitheads. They get this little taste of freedom that comes with adolescence and they go overboard. I think it is just a part of life.
I try to say to my kids, hey, you don’t like how they’re acting now right? Then don’t do it when you’re their age. We will see if that works.
- Comment on As a Chinese American, if I wanna travel internationally, is it better to just say I'm American, or pretend to be a Chinese National (to hide from Anti-American sentinments)? 4 weeks ago:
I tell people I’m from New Jersey. Always have. America has always been way, way too broad a term. I don’t feel any connection with people from Texas or California, certainly not any of the deep south. Shit, I barely feel a connection with people from Pennsylvania.
If they say “Huh, New Jersey?” I say I’m an hour from NYC, and then that usually keeps that discussion rolling in a nice way.

I never even thought of calling 1000 kilopascals a MEGAPASCAL. Haven’t dealt with physics or anything since the cup of coffee that was my college career, so I don’t exactly go around using it, but I love it. I just love it.

Oh my mistake, you’re right. Was rushing a bit, haste makes waste and all that.

NYC is thrice as dense as Berlin, the densest city in Germany. Probably accounts for something.

I’m trying not to hit things, first and foremost, and I think backing in provides as better opportunity for that.
- Comment on Glorious cracked out wall kitten returns with more wisdom for the masses. 1 month ago:
You know, you are absolutely right and I definitely didn’t think about that. In fact, I pull in in the Costco parking lot, because that’s the one place I really need that trunk access. So great point, absolutely right.
My grocery trips are generally smaller and more frequent, just open the front door, toss things on front seat, and get in the other side.
- Comment on Glorious cracked out wall kitten returns with more wisdom for the masses. 1 month ago:
Yeah, when you back into a parking spot, is there traffic moving around in it? How about when you back out, are you backing into a lane of travel? To me, that’s the logic.
When you back in, you are already occupying a lane of travel, and therefore you have some modicum of control over it. Ideally, what I would love to see are angled parking spots intended for backing in, it is the true superior parking configuration, but falls to an opposition that is afraid to back into parking spots, but has no problem backing into a lane of travel.

Back in everywhere, all the time, is a phrase I’ve said to many people. There is never a reason to not back in, and the end result is always a better parking job and an easier exit.
I picked it up driving ambulances and I’ll never go back. Being able to drive really well in reverse is an added bonus, I had to back an F430 with a box on the back up some steep, thin, windy driveways.

About a third of the illiterates in the US just don’t speak English. They may be literate just fine in their native tongue, but that rate captures English literacy.

Went to a Mediterranean restaurant for dinner with my wife. We celebrated her birthday, and so decided to check the dessert menu. We generally don’t get dessert, just never really lie thing, but this menu has a dessert called amygdalopita, which piques my interest. Why would they name it after part of the brain?
And so upon further research, we discovered that the Greek word αμύγδαλο (amýgdalo) means almond. And this really got my wheels turning, because it brought back memory of EMT classes, way back in like 2003, where they talked about the amygdala being named such due tonit being almond shaped.
So I like a dessert that not only tasted great, but also helped me make connections, maybe fire off some neurons I hadn’t in a while.

I cook chicken breasts on 425. I do everything on 425, in fact, it’s the perfect temperature for just about anything that needs to be ovened. I remember being told it would dry my chicken out, but it’s perfect.
Now, a whole chicken works be a different story. Maybe.

We need to just start shitposting in every community, because everything is shitpost, and to deny that is to deny life. When you wake up in the morning, that’s shitpost. When you drink a cup of coffee, that’s shitpost. Drive to work, shitpost. It’s all shitpost, and so I think all we can do is shitpost everywhere.
