BC, and this was like ten years ago, at least.

Yeah, when I worked in the kitchen of a restaurant, I got a share of the tip out. It wasn’t a lot, but it was a nice little bonus. But I’m also in Canada and we don’t have any of this tipped-minimum-wage bullshit here, so the servers weren’t starving themselves to tip us. We all had the same base minimum wage.

When I was seven, I was the kid who was fascinated with bugs. Worms were great, and I would rescue them from puddles. I would follow ants. I would watch spiders and catch ants to throw into their webs. I would play with caterpillars. I would watch bumblebees from a cautious distance.

Okay, so. Shortly after my parents divorced, I was in my late teens and living with my father. Eighteen, nineteen. I have quite a few sisters and the youngest was then about four. My father had a live-in girlfriend for a while and she was.

In my youth, I worked a fruit and vegetable stand on the side of the road. We had a regular who would come by once a week and demand “hot” onions, complain a whole lot about the existence of sweet onions (which we didn’t even have), and then leave without buying anything because he refused to believe us that our…

I’m in Canada, but I work in a pool/hot tub store. We sell 31.5% hydrochloric acid under the name “Muriatic Acid.” $14.99 for a 4L jug. There’s no requirement for ID or anything.

This is a rat I had who liked this video montage of terrible video game physics.

I do this when I see worms in my driveway on rainy days, rather than run over them.

I had Felicity paper dolls. My sister had Kirsten. Felicity was superior because she had a riding habit, imo.

Hey now, that’s completely different. Mickey is an anthropomorphic animal, and Pluto is not. Benson Detailer is no more anthropomorphic than is Harris.

Funny in the good way, I hope. Thank you kindly!

It’s that easy, is it? I can do this.

1. Why does a terrier need a pet hamster? That sounds like a terrible idea.

I’ve had pet rats for years. I would consider it a compliment of the highest order. Aw, I’m intelligent, adaptable, flexible, affectionate, tough as nails, and know the value of cuddling with friends? Thank you!

There’s a local restaurant that does a sesame-wasabi ranch with seared tuna salad. I do not like ranch. I do not really like wasabi. I love this salad.

Agreed. I’m starting my post-secondary career in my thirties. One of my classmate’s mothers is getting her high school equivalence at 42. My mom got her masters in her fifties. Learning is great and everyone should do it if they want to.

Actually, she makes me think more “gold-coloured asari” and Mass Effect rather than Star Wars. But that’s just me.

I will need the gold. And the lilac. And probably the coral at the end.

Not food related, but we’ve had a similar problem with a customer who has a jug of stuff worth about $200 and wants a refund. We can look very far back in the system, but we can’t find a record of anything other than one he was given for free as part of a special deal when he bought a hot tub a year and a half ago. Oh…
