No, it's Burning Human. Get with the lingo old-timer.

Similar thing happened at a local build-your-own pizza place. The line was so long they actually locked the doors so no more customers could come in. But the family ahead of us took for-fucking-ever to order. One $8/hour person was helping them while two others waited there because... they have to work in sequential order. I did a Karen and asked to speak to the manager, who figured out where the problem lay. So we ordered, got our pizza baked, ate a few slices, and the family that was ahead of us was STILL deciding what to get on their pizza.

Quick google search, yup, pretty cute. Random thought from my end - Chinese dad with an American Jewish mom. But from the photos I can’t tell that she has any Asian features.

I went out for Korean BBQ with some buddies last night. One guy I’ve known since 2008, the others joined our “life group” over the past 5 years. We keep things pretty transparent and it sometimes it helps to just talk things through with other guys who are going through life’s ups and downs. Going out tonight for some steaks, scotch and cigars. One guy I’ve know for a while, and my neighbor who I’ve only met a few times. But who doesn’t like steak and scotch? Outside of these more intimate gatherings, I’m involved in a dads/daughters program, and also a dads/sons program. Between the 2, I see a lot of the same dudes at least once a month for camp outs, hiking, fish and other stuff. It’s for the kids, but also for the dads to talk on a more superficial level, but enjoy the camaraderie of being dads with kids around the same age. I didn’t always have this. And now that I do, can’t imagine life without it. OTOH, I’ve always encouraged my wife to go out with the girls. It takes her a while to meet new people and grow closer to them, so whenever she wants to do something (even some LAST MINUTE weekend trips), I tell her I’ll hold down the fort at home and let her get away from the kids for a few hours or a few days.

Address of said hair salon please?

Weird, because you're wife always loses to me.

@immamac Can we get a vomit emoji?

On the demographics front, China is not the only country with birth rates below the replacement rate, which is 2.1 births per woman. The US is at 1.7 while Canada and China are at 1.40 and 1.2 respectively. South Korea is a holy shit 0.8. https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SP.DYN.TFRT.IN The counties with the highest birth rates are in the least developed countries. I’m not a smart man, but seems like the developed countries will need (?) / rely (?) on immigration to maintain a tax base for their social programs. Without emigration, the 3rd world countries will have more people competing for limited resources leading to increased conflict. The data is pretty bleak for the future.

Poppers. But where are the fried pickles?

We hired a guy several months ago. He was a director at a smaller competitor that we occasionally compete with, so we have him a somewhat equivalent position. He is afraid to give the client bad news, so just just buries it, hoping it never comes up. I met with him for 3 hours today to fully understand the situation. I brought it up during the client meeting, explaining the situation, giving them a potential solution that will overcome the cost, and ended the meeting with everyone agreeing to work on it together. Fucking simple. I’m now of the opinion that if someone is looking for a job, they’re probably not worth hiring.

I buy one uh... toy almost a year ago, and the digital ads still follow me around. I'm a dumbass for not going into incognito mode. But serious question, how do I get rid of them? I've already cleared out my browsing history and dumped all of my cookies. The ad is like a marker...

Anyone wanna wager that he dies of an aneurism before the election next year?

I wonder if he’s having seizures. My coworker’s son has petite mal seizures and will blank out for almost a minute. Or maybe he’s having focal seizures. When I first getting them in 2016, I lost the ability to comprehend what people said, and didn’t make any sense when I was trying to say something back. It took my brain a few minutes to “reboot” before I could communicate again, but there were times when the communications part of my brain would keep shutting down over and over, and I give up and hope tomorrow would be a better day. Anyway… fuck Mitch.

And you know this because…?

That looks like Jennifer Lopez's ass. Let us know how it tasted.

Wife went to bed at 10 last night (which is EARLY for her) and woke up at 7:30. She has body aches today and still looks like shit warmed over. Thankfully the kids and I tested negative last night. At least she’s aware she has Covid and not around us more than she needs to. Also good that my couch is comfortable and I can get a good nights sleep without listening to her snore. Who knew a 105 lb woman can be so loud.

Yeah. But chances you’ll be be starved, raped and beat to death anyway. Tough decisions.

Which school booed him anyway? Can you imagine him going to a Pac-12 game? They'd be raining low-fat vegan soy lattes on him before he even gets out of his car.

When is the next booster coming out? The current strains seem to be weaker than the original and delta force version. But who knows. My first and only bout of covid was pretty tame. Cough on a Thursday night, slight fever followed by chills on Friday. Good to go by Friday 3PM. My wife said she feels okay, but is coughing and looks like shit. Hopefully she gets better soon because I need someone to cook dinner.

So the entire team is 6'-3" and 215 LBS?

My wife just tested positive. She was in Sedona over the weekend with friends, texted me on Sunday to say she was feeling a little warm with a cough. She finally took the test after coughing around the kids yesterday. I have a tickle in my throat, but nothing else. More and more people around me are getting sick. My coworker's wife a head nurse or something, and she just calls it a mild flu.

Fuck China.

Who schedules 8AM in-person meetings anymore?

Well yeah. You would do the same if the tenant kept stiffing you on rent.
