Yup. I remember riding the congo river ride or some other ride that really shouldn’t have been terribly rough, and coming out of it with an enormous bruise on my shoulder...and we all promptly got back in line to ride it again.

I lived in Houston in the 80s. So many good memories of Astroworld. Saw a number of concerts there, and went one year at Halloween while on mushrooms (sensory overload in a good way). The one image burned in my brain is the view from the top of the Cyclone at sunset. It’s sad enough that its problems were from…

Math is hard

Used to LOVE trips to Action Park as a kid. I think I was only a year or two older (and my brother was younger) than the poor kind who’d died by electrocution there. An unbelievable tragedy at the time obviously and I hope the family has been able to find some peace in the time since.

So, I grew up in Vernon, literally in the condos that abutted Action Park, later Mountain Creek.

We are using Trump COVID math stats apparently.

I read that as the three other dudes were either vegetarian or vegan - in other words, they don’t even count as dudes, bro!
The women were definitely all lesbians, though.
I mean, they didn’t want to impress him, so OBVIOUSLY.

Oh, definitely, but you have to eat, well, like the Inuit. Lots of meat fat, organ meats, and everything has to be raw or super-rare. Lean meats will send you into “rabbit starvation” pretty quickly, even aside from plain old scurvy.

lol, she was probably like “sorry, I’m not interested”, but he took it as “I can’t get a date because vegans!!!!”

Right? Did they go around the room the first day and declare dietary preferences?

Oh I knew how to do it. I just didn't want to. 

Agreed. Algebra is actually awesome. As a former woman math/science major, this makes me sad.

A few hours later, I asked my brother for “help” with my algebra homework. By the end of the night, he’d done my homework for me.

There was a case a few years ago of a group of students at Rutgers, I think, that came down with scurvy. How? They went on the tried and tru all-beer diet. If I were their nutritionist I would have advised at least one screwdriver a day to supplement.

Oh my god, that’s funny. Nothing says “I am a strong, confident man” like intentionally hurting yourself just because there are lots of women around you. Also, I find it really hard to believe that every single woman in the program was vegetarian or vegan.

I don’t have any really sharp thing to say, I am just commenting to say HA HA HA HA HA HA HA WHATTA DUMBASS!

Ladies, ladies, toxic masculinity isn’t going away anytime soon so we should make it work for us!

I need to go punch something.

I know we’ve all felt like the Greek’s Cassandra throughout this whole thing, but, since the schools closed in the spring, getting the kids back in school this Fall should have been the number one social/community (ie non-medical) priority across the board.

So, the child received their results midway through the school day.
