My room-mate and his wife had a really fun wedding. Their reception was the lower floor of a hotel facing a lake. There were over 100 people with enough food for 20, and enough alcohol for 300. The wife's brother ended up dancing on a table with his cowboy hat, boxers and boots. I was hung over AF the next morning and didn't feel stable enough to drive back to Austin until 4PM.

Google "chicxulub crater". A meteorite will shoot across the screen, and the screen will shake. Are there any other Google easter eggs like this?

Not so trivial... I've been stressed out at work, putting in the hours on things outside of my comfort zone, because hey, you want to get promoted to VP? You gotta do this and that. So, stress > tense body (especially the jaw) > drinking to relieve stress > seizure. Yeah, I had a mild seizure last night. I've shared my history of seizures on this board. There have been many types from grand mal to minor "blips" where I noticed a seizure but could carry on without missing a beat. The ones I've had in the past 1.5 years have been more than blips. The communication part of my brain gets mushy and I have hard time listening, understanding, reading and speaking. It takes anywhere between 15-30 minutes to recover. On the bright side, I know it's more likely to happen if I fall asleep and my head drops towards my chest, so I don't do that anymore. On the flip side, my neurologist warns me that every little seizure could turn into a large seizure if I'm not careful. So fuck me.

That's almost a 24 pack under his seat. How is he not just standing at the urinal drinking beer and peeing at the same time for the remainder of the game?

Go back and fix my mistake of not buying AAPL and AMZN early in the day?

The team couldn’t even get off a play because he doesn’t say know the play and talks about sharks in the huddle.

At least it’s not your wife, her divorced mom sister and your mother in law.

So you're saying something like this

If you see her again, ask if she was chaperoning a bunch of girls at a Christian retreat center last month.

In case it’s hasn’t been mentioned before. There WILL be a language barrier. Download Google Translate and be prepared to use it. If you are jumping into a taxi without booking it on Uber, better have the address (IN JAPANESE) because the driver most likely doesn’t understand English.

Yelp’s tentacles have reached Japan. You can look up restaurants - a lot of reviews in English. You can also take an Uber. It’s a taxi, with the differences being 1) it gives the address to driver beforehand; 2) there’s a small markup. It’s worth the markup IMO so you don’t have to spend 5 minutes for the driver to input your address into your GPS. The taxis are mostly purpose built Toyotas. Black and large inside for backseat comfort. When you get into a taxi, count how many screens the driver has in front of him/her.

Have you thought about a post retirement job of grocery bagger? You’re not too old.

Steak looks amazing. But dude, spend some time to clean up that Weber.

Sad to see one of my favorite actors look so old and frail. But I guess that’s what 93 looks like. I didn’t see his early films, but he played the villain role so well. And then there was this. Everyone dies, but I’ll be devastated when Gene Hackman dies.

Hopefully on a Boeing jet.

Even my 9 YO knows to put the crushable items - bananas, bread, chips, etc. last on the conveyor belt.

PM me or post the picture here and I’ll see what I can do. @gsoda3 and @Sam Lin might be able to help as well.

Does this the follow up to your other post?

Commenting to the kids last night while the strip steaks were on the skillet. "For a great father's day, a cow must die."

Hey man, it's the only place where I can snort blow in private.

Got sick the last 2 days of vacation, came back and felt like I got hit by a truck. I slowly got better and went back to the office starting Wednesday and felt 90% by Friday. Weekend comes and goes, and now I feel like shit again. Not as bad as last week, but still coughing, hacking, etc. I thought these things were supposed to just last a week.

Not just a woman thing. I thought the same after I consumed a plateful of beets after not having it for several years. I thought my innards were melting because… ebola.
