I am someone who can watch Armageddon any time it is on, but are you saying the animal crackers part made you cry? I will admit to tearing up most times when Bruce Willis saves Ben, or when Bruce is saying goodbye to his daughter. But the animal cracker scene was always laughably funny to me.

we should all have been so smart

I only say Mom and Dad to them. Nothing else. When referring to them in conversation with someone else, it could be my mom/my mother but always just dad.

I dont unplug anything (nor would I even if I had the option to do by app) but that makes sense. As for the lights, yeah that seems to be the common usage. My only lights are overhead lights controlled by a switch.

Just found a reason for me to buy one.

No idea where a good place to start is, but I will say most federal openings are in DC so you need to be ok with that or the hunting is much more difficult

I’m sorry to hear about your Max. Mine (Nola) has no problem with the rain, but I wouldn’t say she enjoys it. She does love the beach though and will happily run into the water to chase a ball/stick or me.

Right, and thats why I was curious because the commercials for this type of product always seems to show turning on/off your lights. I was genuinely curious what people really use them for.

I dont have a tub so it’s showers for my dog (70ish lb shepherd) and she just sits there, not fighting me, ears down, with the saddest eyes as the waters rains down on her and I sit in front of her washing her.

I also meant to note that my friend works for SSA so I hear about the “special sort of bullshit” that comes with government work from him, but I don’t care, I would deal with it.

That makes sense. Also not an issue for me as I live in Florida, but that is a truly useful feature beyond the ability to turn on a light.

What do you turn on/off with these? I dont own a lamp in my entire house. I wouldn’t use it on TV, which I have plugged into a UPS anyway.

I think I am the longest associate/assistant my boss has had and I am at 6.5 years. I have watched 2 attorneys in their 50's get fed up with him (he is almost 80) and leave. I have watched 3 assistants burn the bridge and quit. He continues to think he just hasn’t found the right person. I only stay because I have no…

This is why I have always sought federal employment, but I wanted it right out of college because my mother was a state employee and her clock in clock out, no overtime, no weekends, lots of holidays, and 50% salary for life after retirement seemed like a great fucking deal.

I had been meaning to see it (though all I knew about it was that it was well reviewed and based in Miami, which is where I am) but when it won I made the effort to go.

I’ll sneak a bag of gummy bears, but that’s it. Movie theater popcorn is a must for me, and without a purse bringing in a drink is out unless I’m going with someone that has one.

For me it’s $30 an outing every time I go to the theater: about $13 for a ticket (non-3D) and about $15 for concessions. I easily go every other week, and never less than once a month. It is something I enjoy, and much prefer to watching at home. I wont argue that it is getting expensive, probably too expensive, but…

I need to reach out to Aukey because I hear there are great about fixing issues, but I bought their 3-pack of micro-to-C adapters and none of them fit/work. The female end on the adapter is too shallow to fit any of my micro-usb cables.

That’s fine. I can take it. I had no beef with OSU prior to that game, but now they stand just below Florida on my list of most hated teams.

Exactly how I felt when Ohio State played Florida for the national championship. Just drop a bomb on the fucking stadium. I wont miss any of those fans or teams.
