2 Garmin GPS, one handheld and one for the car. I've been using my phone for directions now for years, but I suppose I'll hang on to both units for a bit longer.

Remember in like 2009 or something when the got rid of the wild fries and started only selling "fresh cut fries" that tasted fucking horrific? I boycotted that place and then wrote multiple complaints to the company. I'm sure I wasn't the only one, they brought wild fries back eventually.

I used to live in Colorado but not anymore and Goddamn do I miss Good Times. The wild fries and that SAUCE, man. It's amazing.

I'm sorry to share this with you knowing that it will likely never exist again https://www.candycritic.org/reesebananacream.htm

I'd go back to February of 2016, to a town in California, at the banks of the river that my friend decided he wanted to "take a swim" in, and try to stop him. I'd bring with me copies of all the news articles reporting about how he drowned in that river and that someone found his body and called the authorities. I'd show him a copy of my text messages back and forth with his sister when she told me what happened to him. She claimed that he went swimming in the river often and that he was unaware that the current that day was really strong. I wanted to believe her, but I knew he was troubled, that he ad psychosis and PTSD, and that he didn't want to live past 40. And who the fuck swims in a river in February!? I would do my best to try and save his life.

One or two pieces, sure. A whole fucking cabinet? No thanks.

Not gonna say because I don't want to jinx it

If you were thinking about upgrading anyway, I say do it right now. I personally just bought a new PC and projector/home theater because the ones I had were already old and on the way out. I also plan on buying a new washer/dryer set and brakes for my car, all before 1/20/25, but again, all those things needed replacing anyway.

So this person is fully aware this is happening, right? Is their steering wheel really tilted to the side like that even though they going "straight"?

Fuckin' dumb-dumbs. FAFO.

Thanks for the explanation. I couldn't tell if it was some sort of optical illusion or if their shit was fucked up.

Yes, but I never let it run for the full amount of time. I have to stand there and listen for when the kernels stop popping, otherwise it will burn.

Man then your family is doing it wrong, sorry. I use fresh bread, a ton of butter, onions, celery, thyme, sage, salt and pepper, then bake it so every bread cube is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. I have food texture issues too, so I feel your pain, but there's definitely a wrong way and a right way to make stuffing. Also, NEVER put stuffing inside the turkey, it can result in undercooked stuffing and salmonella from the turkey.

Stuffing. I would eat stuffing every Goddamn day of the year except I'd get fat as fuck. I have to literally limit myself to eating it once a year for Thanksgiving or I'll gradually work it into my regular dinner meal plans and even that is too much.

Oh yeah, I'm aware of all those points and practice them regularly, but thanks for mentioning them! I was speaking of past experiences (like a year ago). I try to stay away from extreme dieting stuff, although I just started 5:2 "dirty" fasting just as a mental challenge (bonus points if I lose some weight), so we'll see how that goes.

I dunno about anyone else, but if I cut (but not entirely eliminate) a significant amount of fats from my diet, good or bad, my libido absolutely tanks. Yes, I lose weight faster, but it's not even worth it to me if I can't have a good time when I want to, so I don't get too extreme in trying to reduce fats from my diet.

Que?

Nope, never. My retirement plan is a ditch with a nice view of the Rockies in Colorado and a bottle of gin on a cold winter night. Everything I've saved into (SS, TSP, retirement accounts) will inevitably disappear before I can access them/hit the age requirements. I don't trust the system at all (I didn't trust it before the election outcome either). I'm fucked. We're all fucked. Might as well live it up now while I still can.
