  1. I stayed in today from the drizzle, but did turn it on to preserve the streak. Yesterday my wife was free, so like good geeks we both powered up the app and swept the terrain between us and a local diner. When we got to unmapped land, I let her walk about ten feet in front so the family would earn more coins. Her coins plus Mine plus my cut of hers. On the way back we dorked out, walking on the sidewalk holding hand while leaning out from the middle with our phones stuck far out so as to cut a double swath of hexes. It actually worked. Best part was exploring an alley next to a parking lot. She burst into a frenzy, running a zigzag among the cars. I bellowed at her in my best Faulknerian 1920s pimp style, "Gawn Girl, You make me that munny Girl..."
  2. She said: "I'm Aubrey Plaza. Give me that cat."
  3. Tumor in the head is GONE, maaaaan.
  4. You ate cats?
  5. While this is still going on, fly to Manzanillo and go to this one seafood place I visited. When they come to take your order, Just tell em "No need, I already got what y'all gave to RDCanecutter." No wait. I told it wrong. It was the deli hot lamp fried chicken in that grocery store that abutted that little mall in Colima, Plaza San Fernando I think it was. Except Street View tells me the grocery is gone and there's a movie theater. Now the joke might still work-- in Mexico you can walk into a cinema, plop down 5 bucks worth of pesos, get a movie ticket, drink, and some sort of big-ass hotdog. OK, with inflation maybe budget 7 bucks. Now the enjoyment might be lessened by shitting all over the seat, but they generally have an intermission down there so you can go wipe your ass and then come back in the dark and choose a new seat.
  6. I've been lucky so far in family craziness. We've had a couple of faith healers, except when it's them personally getting sick then it's off to the hospital (and I'm glad, because they were about to die.) But other than that, and maybe an occasional relative going berserkergang and actually killing somebody, nope, nothing weird here. tick tock tick tock
  7. The children who made those shoes may have children of their own, making shoes, by now.
  8. @MaybeACoordinator told me I'd like that, as he wandered my neighborhood seeking critters, as part of a trip winding across several states based partly on Pokemon Go hotspots. He showed me a critter lurking near my front lawn, kinda spooked me. At the time I was rocking a very early iPhone that barely kept a charge, so I never tried it. Between Silencio and Duolingo and actually trying to finish art commissions, I would probably fail the SAN check if I took on another.
  9. Sounds like what somebody'd say who's about to slam Iran up against a wall.
  10. Or training? Or not sent in meatwave attacks? Answer to all questions is the same.
  11. ...Ne nomu ĝin reveno, mi estas ĉi tie dum jaroj.
  12. Today I figured out how to check in to locations. Basically just use the "check-in" option while standing next to a large business, Then BANG same number of coins as walking 40 minutes. Which I still do. Established a big square and now I'm noodling around inside it. The map appears to show some ghost roads that have been built over, I'm still getting tricksy to find and walk them. Tall buildings appear to exert a force field (no doubt blocking one direction of sensors) that knocks the tracker off, which is how I ended up inside the jail earlier today. It'd be cool if the NoiseCoins turned into some sort of funny money down the line, but the real value is the exercise. I mean, I was decaying before I started playing with this app.
  13. We here in Alabama are surprisingly similar to the US in several ways.
  14. I recruited Mrs. Canecutter. Gonna put her on the street earning me some NoiseCoins.
  15. It's actually the first thing that MAGA (singular MAGVM) have done that I respect.
  16. Per my part-Danish wife, just learn Norwegian then get a shot of novocaine
  17. I dare you to smear a half-melted chocolate bar on your ass and then call the nurse.
  18. Come for the cancer, stay for the heat stroke.
  19. I noticed that the app is a little wonky when first powering up, and will show me standing 20 yards off one way or the other. I have been using this to get credit for hexes that I couldn't get to without trespassing. Stand by the neighbor's fence, turn it on, and zing I'm in their back yard or maybe in their house. It will be mine it will be mine it will be mine mine mine.
  20. Don't even get me started about most folks' sword-and-shield technique these days.
  21. It's difficult for your balls to drop if you sit around clenched up in front of a spit-speckled mictophone.
  22. A giant pumpkinhead ain't diverse?
  23. I'm guessing that 50% of all adults couldn't point towards the north without digital assistance.
