Fun fact: in America most common brands of both honey AND maple syrup are just flavored high fructose corn syrup. It’s not like we don’t have the real stuff on the same shelf, but you have to pay attention to the labels or you might get some bullshit.

Probably something like
“Ski-bi-dibby-dib yo-da-dub-dub, yo-da-dub-dub Ski-bi-dibby-dib yo-da-dub-dub, yo-da-dub-dub”
Or maybe
“Ba-da-ba-da-ba-be bop-bop-bodda-bope Bop-ba-bodda-bope Be-bop-ba-bodda-bope, bop-ba-bodda Ba-da-ba-da-ba-be bop-ba-bodda-bope Bop-ba-bodda-bope Be-bop-ba-bodda-bope, bop-ba-bodda-bope”

Like the plaque on your teeth?
Or did you mean plague, you (to borrow a page from your own playbook), fucking idiot?
Neither of which is an actual turn of phrase, btw. The phrase you wanted is (ironically, because of the plaque) “it’s like pulling teeth with you.” If you’re going to be a smug dick at least be correct so you don’t embarrass yourself any more than you already do by simply being a smug dick.

Well, middle manager /#1 has been there since the start of the company and worked his way up. In some ways he’s good at his job, too, but also sometimes he seems to forget we’re not mechanical. /#2 was promoted when his predecessor left unexpectedly (possibly coup’d by /#2), they needed someone and he was the most sniveling manipulative cunt they had available so he got the job, but it was mostly left to /#1’s decision, so…
Now, I could snitch on them to the owner for everything shitty they do, but if it isn’t bad enough to get them fired, they know it was me who got them chewed out and I’ve painted a target on my back. More tact is necessary.

While true (maybe), if I find a brick of coke I’m 100% busting that down into 8balls and getting it gone quick. I know cokeheads suck but I gotta make a buck too and one isn’t that much in the grand scheme of keys.

The real trick is the bologna grilled cheese. Brown the bologna in your skillet, then (wipe out skillet if need be, and) make a grilled cheese as usual, but put the bologna in the middle before you close it.

- Comment on Insulin 5 weeks ago:
Ah well that’s good, at least there appears to be some options.
I’ve heard of clandestine labs making patented insulin and selling it cheap too, and I’m all for a good grey market.
- Comment on Insulin 5 weeks ago:
Ah, so you’d need to know your dosage for that type beforehand, and if you didn’t know it you can’t just wing it. Still though, might be beneficial to know that for emergencies like this because it sounds preferable to certain death.
There should be a little chart your doc gives you at diagnosis (or something, spitballing here) that lays out the dosages you’d need for X, Y, and Z brands so that if say you use X and they’re out (or your kid freezes it or something) you can just consult the dosage chart and get Y for now.
- Comment on Insulin 5 weeks ago:
Is there any reason a diabetic has to get the newer patented formulas instead of the old one that the pic talks about which is regularly sold for around $25 a vial in the US without insurance?
I know the new stuff works faster and you don’t have to worry about your diet as much so I’m sure it’s much easier, but why would you have to die instead of just managing your diet and using the $25 stuff for a month in this emergency situation?
Don’t get me wrong all medicine should be free and stuff but like, why die instead of switching to the cheap stuff and dietary management for a month?

Tbh I’m not surprised, I do think that SOA was forced to be inclusive, but they have been for years now and so they’re probably used to it.
Conversely Girl Scouts not only were never pressured to be inclusive, they’re actively shielded from having to be inclusive. You think they’re sexist when a girl wants to join you should see how they treat boys who want to join!
Also worth noting, the whole reasoning behind forcing the Boy Scouts to allow girls was “because the girl scouts sucks.”
Personally I think the correct answer was either:
A) Boy/Girl scouts merge, they’re both now Scouting America and everyone can join. Could even expand it to adults that missed out as kids and want to learn survival skills or want to hike and camp with other adults (separate units of course from the kids lmao, but I’ll shoehorn in a healthy “third place” for adults any chance I get). And keep selling the Girl Scout cookies but call them Scouting America cookies now.
B) Nothing. Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts remain limited to their respective genders, and if “girl scouts sucks” then it is their responsibility to improve and make it not suck. Leaves NB out to dry though, and could get weird if someone wants to transition but their Scout Credits don’t transfer with them.
But we got neither, instead we got “the boys do not deserve their own space but the girls do” which is a little weird to me (though entirely too common.)
I am glad however that you were able to go with the less toxic option, and I do still love Thin Mints, I just wish they’d have taken option (A) instead of option (D)ouble Standard.

There’s also the Scouts formerly known as Boy (“Boy Scouts” no longer exists, it’s now “Girl Scouts” and “Scouting America” now.)
- Comment on Dude read the rules of woman only community and decided to post anyway 1 month ago:
That’s not the weird part (beyond being by nature exclusionary so if you think that is weird then I guess there’s that) but rather the semi-public-but-not-really aspect, personally were I to have a woman exclusionary forum, it wouldn’t be out in the open but something more controllable like a discord server (preferably without the privacy nightmare but I have no will to create this space and prefer places where all are welcome so I haven’t done much research on where I’d create that.)
Just seems like inviting unnecessary conflict and work for the mods, unless that’s the goal I suppose.
