I did. Index cards and pencil.

Back to Fuck you Micro$oft.

" Thank you for being a valued Microsoft 365 subscriber. To reflect the value we’ve added over the past decade, address rising costs, and enable us to continue delivering new innovations, we’re increasing the price of your subscription."

Look bitches, I don't want those updates. I do not want CoPilot or to be able to read my entire proposal library on my phone. I do not need to collaborate on every damn document. Just try to fix autorecover so I do not have to navigate every time you force an update. You can build copilot but not how to keep a name on a file and HAVE TO ADD Autorecover to it?

Yeah, it is 3 bucks a month. I have about 15 licenses I pay for. That is not a lot, imagine the impact on a major corporation. Or the Federal government.

My grocery list is, and always will be, a notepad that has a pen tied to it with a string and stuck to the refrigerator with a magnet

I roll with the notepad with a magnet taped to it, stuck on the ice box door. Thanks to Miz Long, I've got probably three or four hundred pens and pencils available.

Not sure how trivial, but it pisses me off that I have such a hard  time finding belts with acceptable spacing. The holes on almost every belt I look at are way too far apart, so you go up a notch or down a notch and it is fn' worthless. There are times when you need a slight adjustment, even during the same day. I keep buying the same two belts, and they aren't that great. But I can find no others that have correct spacing.

Back to the 90s. Braided belt. You’re welcome.

Wife does the refrigerator game. I forget to check it when I walk up to HEB.

My go to is simple, they sit on my desk and when i think of what I want to make for meals I just write it on that notepad. Of course, I get surly when I walk up and realize I forgot the damn list.

 

Our grocery list is a shared Notes file on our phones.

We start with the store, and everything we need / want from the store is a separate line with a checkbox.

If we need it, we’ll go in the app, check the thing we need, and once it’s in the basket, we uncheck it.

The let’s-make-it-even-more-efficient part of me organizes the list by how I would walk through the grocery store -  produce section first, then dairy, meat, pastas, etc. This also depends on particular grocery store and how it’s laid out.

Its pretty efficient instead of my wife and I texting each other to see what we need.

Yeah. Um, I just make a list and then use my phone for either listening to music if it is just me shopping or I watch a game and let her wander as I follow checking out coeds. Or i might call my dad, talk recipes, life or tell him about the hotness is aisle 4.

And I would not be caught dead adding Greek Yogurt to fajitas. That is for Cevapcici or if messed with, gyro/kafta.

What kimchi do you get?

Another thing that makes me surly. People who share their shopping list. :)

You said Chobani yogurt twice.

A Chipotle burrito consumed at 4 pm will make an explosive exit at 2:30 am. 

That is why he needs 2x the Chobani. And the glucosamine. Yeah, that does the trick. Mix them up, add some extra hard tofu, a pinch of other fish. Pulse in the blender and straight into the gullet.

No time. I need them tomorrow. Now that I’ve prepared my morning half-bagel, I should probably get more apple butter too.

Also, I keep my shopping list on the Notes app on my phone. That way I can add to it anywhere, anytime, and I (almost) never forget to take it with me to the store.
