  1. Wife got a great deal on a really expensive mattress (Her words, not mine) a few days ago without telling me. According to the tag we’ve had the old one since 2016 so if you believe the mattress industrial complex’s marketing BS I guess we were do, but this thing is the complete opposite of what I’m used to sleeping on! The old one was at least a foot thick memory foam, new one’s about 6 or 7 inches and as soft as sleeping on a baby blanket thrown on a concrete floor. I guess I’ll have to get used to it because she had the delivery guys haul the old one off when I wasn’t home. Skinny new one just makes the entire room look different, and kinda ghetto IMO compared to my ol’ faithful. This all occurred without my knowledge or input and I didn’t even ask what she considered a great deal or expensive. Oh, and new pillows too of course and my neck is stiff as hell and extremely painful to turn even a quarter of an inch from using them, so at least I’ve got that going for me!

    Getting old sucks

    Sweatergod I just put away my cane Friday from a couple of weeks of back flare ups and wake up yesterday with my neck stiff as a post just from using a different pillow!! Hurts worse today than yesterday! Makes me wonder what it’s gonna be like when I’m actually really old!
  3. Nothing good ever happens after 2:00 am
  4. Me either… but the interweb insists on calling him she/her and that makes me want to take it to the things that make you surly thread!
  5. At this stage I might. Whatever the fuck STD’s she had to be carrying around may just be hibernating.
  6. I wonder how high it bounced when it hit the ground?
  7. Probably been covered already. The A-10 is just one massive killing machine. Shoots 30 beer bottle sized rounds per second! Good luck trying to get out of the way!
  8. Where’d she run off to? Just decide to go outside and kick random people’s ass?
  9. I usually start at 20% plus for tipping, but if you’re going to try and force an amount on me you’re probably gonna be really disappointed with what I wind up actually giving.
  10. Watched a show about military dogs. 9/10 that dog’s going to win a fight! You get one of those Belgian Malinois coming at you full speed and you’ve got a millisecond to get in a damaging kick or other first shot before it’s on you and they’re trained to evade your attempt to fight it. If you miss with your first try you’re screwed. Pretty good chance it knocks you down and then you’re really in trouble. If the fight lasts long and you’re lucky it’ll leave you with enough muscle and sinew that they’ll be able to save your arm, but how many guys are going to be able to effectively continue to fight while having a quarter of their limbs or more being shredded? I also learned that all military dogs are NCO’s and outrank their handlers.
  11. Can’t argue with that!
  12. Morbidly obese women who make absolutely no attempt to show even the slightest pride in their appearance or even basic hygiene who sport giant tattoos on their thighs, backs, etc. Ladies, it ain’t helping! (Wal Mart trip this morning…)
  13. Dodgers coming through when they don’t have to. https://dodgersway.com/posts/dodgers-renew-contract-extend-extremely-kind-gesture-to-former-of-andrew-toles-01gvndfgrp2w
  14. Carrying around a cello while playing it looks very difficult.
  15. Propane guys will only fill them if they are under a certain age. If they’re old and in good shape you can get them recertified for another 5 years but that costs 10-15 bucks. However no matter how old or what kind of shape they’re in you can always exchange them at Wal Mart or wherever and get a newer one. 10 buck an hour dude don’t care!
  16. I played baseball through college. I’ve never even seen an entire cricket match yet somehow think I would have dominated at it because of my (meager) baseball skills. What’s the difference in the skill set and why don’t Spanish speaking people rule the sport the way they do MLB? I’ll hang up and listen.
  17. There’s a wall of bullshit before you get to the actual recipe (another thing that makes me surly!) but here’s how to make your own taco shells. Looks pretty simple. https://www.slenderkitchen.com/recipe/oven-baked-taco-shells
  18. I’m sorry I ruined your black panther party.
  19. Pro tip: Don’t exchange them. They only fill the Blue Rhino’s etc. with about 3 gallons of propane. Getting it filled at a propane dealer you get 4.7. They’ll fill the exchange company’s bottles too.
  20. It’s going to be pretty difficult to win with them. Mercenaries are a finite resource, especially if you’re using WW2 “We’ve got millions of men, just rush the tanks” tactics.
  21. No way my wife would quietly clean any one of those.
  22. Well… yeah
  23. Monkeys had obviously seen their YouTube channel.
