I’ve never understood this either. If someone is holding things in their arms it’s helpful, but if they have a cart then nothing is really gained. I can easily fill the conveyor belt by the time the person in front of me finishes paying. So getting started early feels like I am crowding them for no reason. Like flooring it between red lights; you’re just wasting energy to wait anyway.

Was it from the [youtu.be/Jm7nZMHX2Cs](Octopus Lady)? She’s always great.

Surely he just means that he left the church and is no longer a pastor at… 18!

I heard the dev didn’t intend for those to stack and it’s nerfed in the next patch.
- Comment on Are Memoirs and Autobiographies partly fictional? How the f do people remember so much detail? 5 weeks ago:
I’ve been trying to write a memoir and this is legitimately true. I have basically no concrete memory of my childhood, but when I start writing what I do remember it opens some floodgates. Admittedly I still have to fill in a lot of gaps with what I think is funniest.

The fact that it sounds so much like “papacy” is making me laugh extra hard at this for some reason.

If you had just put Vicodin instead of Morphine it would have been 100% accurate. Although he does take Morphine a couple times as well, so maybe that’s just splitting hairs.

If you’re not masturbating with me then you must be masturbating against me.

I’m curious about the cute mason jar. I’ve got plenty in various sizes, including roughly the volume of the pictured jar, but they’re all taller than wide. Not sure what I’d even put in it, though (besides tater tots).
- Comment on Tiiiiiiiiiime, its on my side. Yes it is! 2 months ago:
Yeah, that’d be a great template.

I haven’t seen the movie, but the book is very detailed about how the death march is tearing apart their bodies and minds. Some basically sleepwalk and get the tiniest fraction of rest. But even those that do are driven insane.
I’m not really a fan of most of King’s work, but The Long Walk is worth a read even if you don’t like his other stuff.

Exactly what I thought of. No way this guy is serious; he just wants a wider dating pool.

That’s exactly what I thought too. I had to stare at this one for a while to get it.

Is there something I’m supposed to be doing with Queen Anne’s Lace? It gets more out of control every year, but I just rip it out and compost it.

As someone who worked at a gas station for many years, I definitely don’t miss this. For some reason the Women’s room was always consistently bad (I assume because they all hovered) while the Men’s room was relatively easy to clean.
But every week or so there was something like the image in the Men’s room that made me regret being born. I’m sure there’s a lesson in there about outliers messing up the average or something.

Outlook does too. Basically the only thing Microsoft has gotten right because it has saved me 100% of the times I forgot.
