The six months leading up to my gallbladder removal were the worst, but 6 weeks post-surgery I was almost back to normal. What you went through sounds awful, and I’m glad to hear you’re starting to adjust (but man, that sucks!)

I had my gallbladder out 16 years ago, and other than having to watch my fat intake (too much high-fat foods and I get wicked cramps), it’s never caused me any problems. For the 6 weeks after the surgery, I had to be careful about my fat intake (nothing over 5g of fat per serving), but after that, everything was fair…

I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve seen The Last Unicorn in my 40 years, but it makes me ugly-cry every. Damn. Time.

Any time I get weird requests at work or have to deal with people not wanting to pay $0.50 fines, this gif plays in my head.

I did this to a mom wanting to borrow Watership Downs for her son’s birthday party sleepover. She thought it was about a family of rabbits, I tactfully explained yes, it’s about rabbits but maaaaaaaaaybe she wanted to preview it before giving it to the kids?

I’m about 90 hours into Dragon Age Inquisition (it took me a long, long, LONG time to finish Origins, and then finished DA2 in a week) and still have three maps to explore. Because it’s my first playthrough, I am doing all the sidequests to get the full experience (and so I can just blow through parts on my next…

I’ve got my grandparent’s old blender. It’s almost 50 years old, weighs a ton, and still works perfectly.

I had a Math teacher in grade 10 who did the creepy shoulder rub thing with the girls in the class, who would just cringe and freeze when he did it. One day he tried it with me and I pulled away and told him not to touch me, and he replied with, “What? I’m just being friendly!” I repeated that I didn’t want him…

I love everything about this video :)

As a library manager, if and when I see that crap happening, I’ll cheerfully interrupt to send the staff member on a break, and give the clueless idiot my best “Do not bother my staff because I will mess you up” look. We’ve even worked out a system where if someone who makes staff uncomfortable walks in, we find jobs…

Nope - it’s still called Swastika, although it’s pronounced swa-STI-ka.

A friend of mine is still reduced to helpless laughter every time he watches that first clip. All we have to do is start “meeping” and he’ll laugh his way through PoE boss fights, raids, etc.

Get down with your badass selves! Congrats!

*fist bump* I’ve been playing for the better part of 9 months, and I still don’t have one either.

Yup.

SimFarm was always my jam, and I miss it so :(

Wait - if you're a single lady, what are you doing with a home? Why aren't you still living with your parents until your father hands you over to the man he's decided you should marry? Isn't that in the R.A.D. manual somewhere?

We started running it with 5 of us (our 6th was at a birthday party), four lvl 30s and a lvl 29. We made it almost to the bridge at the end of the thrall cave (so. many. thralls!) before we found a sixth; it made some difference overall, but we mostly avoided the lamps. The advantage of so many thralls is that we…

Some sort of thick multigrain bread, or a crusty baguette. And for sauce, maybe mustard, maybe something chipotle - something sweet and smokey to complement the pork and mango, but not drown out the cheese. (Also, the local deli has a horseradish cheddar to swoon over)

That...doesn't sound terrible.
