Can you not just order a bunch online? 

Sparkling water in general is hit or miss depending on the convenient store. So I do get your frustration. 

posrep

It's something I usually buy when I stop in a convenience store, didn't even think of going online...I guess b/c I'm an old fuck.  

Just went to my Prime account and ordered two cases.  Apparently, Coca Cola knows its way to the Amazon warehouses.

    The day I retired I set an auto reply that said something like "As of EOB today I will be retired.  If you expect me to reply to an email after 10:00 am today, you will be disappointed."  At the 3:00

Took the kids to see the latest Jurassic Park movie.  Start time 1PM.  Movie actually started at 1:43.  43 mins of previews and ads.

 

Not doubting you but that's not normal.  I'd find a better place to start seeing movies.  

I saw a 6:00pm showing last weekend and looked at my phone as I was walking to my car and it was 8:45.  At a run time of 2 hrs 27 min that's 18 minutes of trailers and commercials.  Not too bad.

Me wearing a team hat and some schlub asking me if I’m a fan of that team.

It's a reasonable question. About 1/3 the time with my friends, someone is wearing a team hat for another team because they lost a bet.

Can't be first in line for food if you don't create the line.

Browsing through facebook marketplace and the number of stupid fucks that can't figure out how to use the words "sell" and "sale" in the right context. 

"For Sell"

"It's time to sale this, don't need it no more"

I hate them.

Your just being a self-riteous grammar nazi.  It’s not there fault they are loosers because there elementary school teacher failed them.

Not a big deal.  I'm a teacher.  I've got plenty of time to kill at the moment.  I used to enjoy the trailers; however, most of the movies don't appeal to me anymore AND one can see specific trailers at home.

When people refer to a derivative measurement as the obvious and immediate effect, rather than the effect itself.

Used to read all forms of "replacing your car's factory wheels with lighter wheels will increase its performance, because it improves the power-to-weight ratio."

No, being lighter in and of itself improves the performance.  I don't need a ratio to show that.

Kinda like saying "if you add more throttle, you will arrive at your destination sooner, because you improve the miles-per-hour".  No, because you go faster, dummy.

  • Author

you should correct them by getting far into the weeds on wheels. start talking about how saving rotating mass is similar to saving 3x the amount of non-rotating mass but if your lighter wheels are a larger diameter you could actually make it worse because rotational moment of inertia has the radius as a factor

It's a reasonable question. About 1/3 the time with my friends, someone is wearing a team hat for another team because they lost a bet.

Bro gangs don’t set the standard of reasonableness for the rest of us normals.

I think you’ve just hit on a great business idea. If there was an onboard CRNA or anesthesiologist to administer propofol inflight, I would pay for that upgrade every time. Also a big win for the flight attendant’s union as they wouldn’t have to serve drinks and get abused by passengers.

the one fly thats in my living room and occasionally land on me.  i dont want to squash him.  i want to entrap him in glue, and then slowly torture him by inching a candleflame ever and ever closer

Yeah, take the one side you make that differentiates your secondary menu...and offer mac & cheese.

WTF people?

Ok.  Fair enough, but damn, the cajun rice was good too.  Guess I was one mofo who liked it...

Trying to time fluid intake timing just right for a pre-employment drug screening. Seems like I don’t have piss ready to go, then all of a sudden while in the waiting room I fill like I am about to burst.

People who fly with infants.

Not trivial.  I had an infant behind me on a flight from JFK to Dakar a couple of weeks ago.  Not fun.

I get the sentiment, but what are folks supposed to do? I mean, my kids need to see family in Brazil.


But yeah, I am glad they are 7 and 5 now. Makes traveling easier. Somewhat.

This. I hate it if there's an infant in the cabin with me (and I had one in fucking business class last year who wailed about 7 hours of an 11hr flight - flight crew came and apologized multiple times), but I also understand the political incorrectness of drugging the baby to sleep for the flight, like can be done with carryon animals. I bring earplugs.

Whenever we had a road trip or plane flight when our now-grown kids were young, they had to take their vitamins before departure. Yep, children’s Benadryl. Worked like a charm. 
They’re all fine now, not a druggie among them. 

I'm not saying I've recommended a splash of Bailey's in their milk, but I've recommended a splash of Bailey's in milk, multiple times.

Parents who let their kids roam around the airplane without supervision…

 

Oh wait, that was my kid. On his first trip to Hawaii, he wandered down the aisle a few rows, smiling, waving and saying hi to the ladies. I’m 99% sure he went up to one and stroked her leg.

He’s a good looking kid with dimples, and I’m pretty sure when he’s older, more ladies would let him stroke their legs.

I would honestly be okay with that if it was significantly cheaper, like half price, but it'll be like "wanna save five bucks?"

those seats are too tall to fit in a narrowbody.  probably no way they'd pass evacuation test with people having to step down or go around that support.

If there is any chance the check gets split you gotta up your drink game to match the rest of the table.
