usagi Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 @prdctvsmin addition to the lushest soul pads available, also let us know if there's a way any of us can help practically. it's not too bad where I am, mostly first world complaints about not being able to go out. I'm up on a hill sort of so less risk of being washed out, though a break has formed in my garage roof and is allowing water to seep in constantly which I'm keeping an eye on. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr_Nova Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 Kept thinking about ordering McD's cheeseburgers with bacon all week. The "with bacon" bit was the part that most compelled me. Finally ordered them last night, got home, and the whole fucking point of the order was absent (bacon). The disappointment is still haunting me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drillkicker Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 All of my dreams over the past few months have been about failing to accomplish impossible tasks. Last night I dreamt that I had to take care of chickens and turkeys and for some reason I just couldn't get the grain to their feeders, and I couldn't refill their water. I kept trying and it wouldn't work, and I was disappointing everybody who put their trust in me. In other news, I hate my entire life and I want to die. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This fucking ad blocker is almost as annoying as the ads were. There's a pop-up every time it does its job... so basically I'm getting an ad for a single product over and over again, defeating the whole purpose. No idea what I was using before. What's the best free one out there? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

user Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Perhaps a silly proposal but have you considered asking someone else to confirm for you? Additionally you could maybe agree with that person that if anything goes wrong or it turns out to be more costly than expected you may officially blame them because they sealed the deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephyr_Nova Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Whatever the sum of money, just imagine how much duct tape you could buy for half that - your roof could last 1000 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephyr_Nova Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Got unusually tired at 11pm, so I went to bed and slept. Now it's 2:30am and I'm wide awake (my normal bedtime is 4-5am). Fuck. Considering driving to the gas station to buy ice cream... but I have a sinking feeling they will be closed, and then I just don't know. What i really want is coffee, but... 2:30am. Hmmmmm.
