  1. Ukraine would be more gangsta if it told Belarussian troops to withdraw beyond the range of Ukrainian artillery.
  2. Instead of a racial draft, are we also doing a generation draft? We of the Generation X delegation, pick Barrack Obama.
  3. We demand not to be forgotten.
  4. Traffic lights where everyone has a red light.
  5. My son started taking jiu jitsu classes late July and REALLY likes it. He would go everyday if it was up to him. Every class begins with 35 minutes of lessons, followed by 25 minutes of “rolling” with other kids. My son always has his hand up wanting to go. Today he rolled with 3 kids who all had much more experience. He legitimately tied 2 of them, and got the 3rd kid in an arm bar within a minute. Then did it again. Watching him do something he really enjoys, and doing well at it makes me all kinds of happy. On a side note, I’m glad he’s not rolling with the girls in the class. They are VICIOUS. Like “my older brother’s been beating on me all week and I’m going to take it out on you” vicious.
  6. I learned/speak/understand/whatever 3-4 languages. Yes Chinese has a lot of characters to learn, but the grammar is relatively easy. German words are pronounced the way they are spelled (almost?). English is hard unless you learned when you're young.
  7. Learned German during HS __ei__ is pronounced like "eye" __ie__ is pronounced like "eee" So Harvy Weinstein is supposed to be wine-stine.
  8. So good news (?). We dropped the bid, and I won't be flying out to El Paso, on my birthday. I get to spend the entire day in CA with my family. Maybe this belongs in the trivial things that please the ever shit out of you?
  9. Yeah, but did they have ?
  10. Are we allowing Ring neighbor alerts? Because I have neighbors saying "I hear coyotes howling". No shit lady, we live close to a regional park, there are always coyotes howling at night. Are you hearing this for the first time?
  11. The super moon this evening did not disappoint!
  12. #teammamabear Don’t want to die? Don’t encroach on their land. Also Darwin theory at work. See bear? GTFO and dont’ stand there recording it on your phone.
  13. This guy’s expression says it all.
  14. lol. Just changed the name of my front door.
  15. Yes. My company built the new Kansas City Airport. It is awesome.
  16. I have a Kershaw Cinder that I carry as a EDC knife. It’s small, just a 1.4” blade. So small that I regularly lose them. Well, I found one this morning in a suit that I haven’t worn in several years. Great way to start a day.
  17. I don't think Buc'ees has franchised to Russia yet.
  18. My 12 YO tower computer (yeah right?) under my desk was getting really shitty speeds over wifi despite the router being <10' away. Speed Test showed 15-20 MBPS. Luckily I had an extra mesh router (eero) with an ethernet connection. Set it up and my speed went up 10x. Now I get to read the nonsense on Surly without having to wait an extra few seconds for the pages to load.
  19. Osteoporosis is real. Drink more milk, less Chardonnay.
  20. Childless cat ladies.
  21. Yeah, ain't no way. BUT, those guys at the NFL combine can get some air. I get about 5" on a good day. 4" if you ask my wife.
