Like several folks already mentioned, ambient music works great. But it has to be just loud enough to hear clearly but be able to ignore.  I do my best writing if there’s non vocals ambient or classical music to keep the flow moving. Can NOT focus on verbiage or understanding if there are vocals. I found that the…

I tried this a couple a year or two ago.  Black tea and oatmeal with brown sugar was not a very good combo.  Pretty much had to toss it out.

Yup. Have had mine on my key chain since about ‘78. Still works just fine.

A much grimmer version of this concept is the Swedish movie Aniara. The final scene of the movie is the decayed ship coasting into a star system about a million years later.

Oh good!  Somebody else who says “so what? I just don’t care”  What is this?  The 137 remake of Batman?

Oh! I want to believe!  But the truth was revealed in the movie Rare Imports

That would be great... if Macy’s hadn’t shut down most of their stores here in the Atlanta area.

I *am* old AF and I don’t give a F$@ what you whippersnappers think about me while I’m in the office because I know how to do all those things plus tons more that you have no idea how to do.  pbbbbbbt!!!!

As a young lad, I would make peanut butter sandwiches with yellow mustard on it (French’s if you must know).  The sharp and sweet seemed to appeal to my tastebuds.

Oops...I made man eating locusts and now they have gotten loose.

The 20 minutes until the nuke arrives must have fallen into a black hole becomes that was the loooooongest 20 minutes of action ever. Run up and run down 20 flights of stairs? Saw through a concrete wall? Run from one casino to another while dodging zombies? Fly a chopper around Vegas and the dead horse still beats it…

Oooooh!  Sexy teenage THX 1138 in Spaaaaaaaaace!

How many storm troopers came out of the clown mobile?  Were they stacked in there like cordwood on top of each other?  And what was the final body count?

*IF* we put our dishes in the dishwasher right after eating and then run the damn thing, the dishes would come out clean. The reality is that we put stuff in the dishwasher and it might be four or five days before it gets run. Leaving stuff on the plates for that long only gets you crusty plates that now have to be…

Ok then. I mean, couldn’t you just look and see if the lights are on? Or something that is running all the time like a stove clock or refrigerator?

My wife uses a big sheet of felt.  The puzzle sticks to the felt and it can be rolled up and stored out of the way without taking up horizontal space.

So...having campaigns to stop drunk driving and distracted driving (which is as bad as drunk driving), and seatbelts is not good? Because these require traffic stops in order to prevent, warn, or ticket drivers who endanger other drivers on the road.

So...the advice is to pay $25 or more to save paying $10-$15 at a restaurant outside the lounge?

I started getting emails from some family in Utah who had a member with a very similar name and email to mine.  Sensitive family stuff and planning.  First two times I politely said you have the wrong email.  When that didn’t fix the problem, I wrote back and told them that since they are not removing my email from…
