Hmmm, the idea of the “dampness,” factor is what confuses me. When I used to work construction in high school and college, certain materials like drywall and kinds of sawdust would irritate me. I don’t think they were harming me, it was more like I hated particles randomly flying up my nose, so I got in the habit of…

Haha, you joke but be careful what you wish for because we are stuck inside and if there is anyone who is prepared to bore your ear off about whether the extra cash of being a banker is worth the loss of nerd street cred when you actually finish the game, it’s 4th grade me.

I mean . . . we definitely would have. 

haha, good catch. Damn voice to text!

Yeah, generational definitions were sort of stupid when the world vaguely stayed the same for a decade or two, but at this point they are just idiotic and mostly a way to label “that group I don’t like.”

A rule I picked up from a friend of mine is “when you hear bacon/pancetta, you can think anchovies,” because they do the same thing in the dish. They add a rich salty flavor along with some fatty tastes. Obviously you don’t want to use nearly as much because it’s a lot more potent, but I make an anchovy themed…

I’ve got no kids, but I feel like if I did the second I heard “quarantine,” I’d have bought a couple hundred bucks in tinker toys for this exact reason.

Haha, yeah I’m back in school finishing off an MA, and if you want to feel a thousand spend your days 100% surrounded by gen Z.

Nah, not to be pedantic but it’s every 25 years or so. People Think it’s weird that boomers butt up against X who butts up against millennial, but that’s the system. Which, doesn’t actually matter since it mostly had to do with marketing in the first place haha. Millennial is followed by gen Z. Best definition for…

Hmmm, what’s the over/under on how many days until this guy is “coincidentally,” involved in an “incident” during a traffic stop.

Apple IIe or bust. It just isn’t Oregon if it’s not that specific shade of flickering green. 

Right? I and my friends were a part of “The Organ Trail Generation,” which is a really fun phenomenon to read about, but it’s basically “the oldest millennials,” and he’s being slowly driven nuts by his daughter who is stuck home from her first year of college because of the pandemic. I have no doubt his youngest in…

Great list. I will be taking a look at a couple of these today, but please for the love of all that is holy never become a slideshow site. We just don’t need one more click farm. 

I realize it isn’t the same author, but I’m loving that this article came just a few hours after:

Yes and no. A lot of companies are going to be forced into layoffs soon and the people who can’t handle working at home are going to have that, rather major, strike against them.

That’s awesome! and I’m not trying to put a damper on the groups who are doing this and doing it right, I just want to make sure people are checking labels, since this stuff is important.

Haha meh, this sentence was clumsy, but I’ve definitely been guilty of that before.

Haha, I had a similar thought. 

Absolutely untrue. If you don’t leave your house, and don’t let anyone come anywhere near your house (but are you getting food and groceries delivered? Messing with the same mailbox the postman touches every day? Touching the trash that is going to get touched by city workers? Going to the pharmacy to pick up…

The TTB waived a lot of rules to allow distilleries to produce hand sanitizer, but that doesn’t change that many of them aren’t producing it at a full 60% or higher alcohol concentration. The TTB can change a lot of taxation and import rules, but those weren’t actually what was keeping them from making the sanitizer…
