Shit man, sorry to hear that.  If you wanna talk about it here, happy to listen.  Certainly understand if you don't.  Here's to the day getting better for all of us...

Ah, it was just a dream.  So real that I was trying to remember what parts were true and what parts weren't.  

I dint really get that a lot so at least there's that.  It's one of the byproducts of a very strange life.

I’m so annoyed by the catch phrases that pop up randomly from time to time. I see that “virtue signaling” is now edging out “chef’s kiss” for the most annoying term. 

"Narrative" is way overused right now.

It seems like some company could come up with a unit that would wash all your clothes (your choice of whites or delicates or soiled kids stuff or whatever) and then go in to a dry mode. Just one unit. Throw your jeans and underwear and darks in and after 2ish hours they are ready to fold.

Seems like they would crush. Half the space in the laundry room. Sell the units for twice as much as a washer and dryer.

They do sell those.  They just aren’t that popular.

Had one in a furnished apartment. I went to the laundromat it was so bad. Would take hours and stuff still wouldn't be dry.

Why can’t cars have gas tanks on both sides?

Because of the arrow on your dashboard.  And because you touch yourself at night.  On both sides, I might add.

Why can't car companies install a belt driven alternator/generator that recharges the batteries while it's running?

Im sure someone smarter than me knows that answer by now.

I know we are giving you shit, but is this a serious question? We have a dumb question thread. I suggest using it if you're serious and don't want to get ridiculed.

Dealing with the general public sucks. I thought it was bad in health care but apparently it's also terrible in the tire business. Got a flat tire on my lunch break and drive to Discount Tire for a fix (tire warranty and the only place willing to operate on my Tesla). I'm chilling in the lobby and this happens as someone walks in 

Employee: Hey welcome to Discount Tire, how can I help you? 

Customer:.........excuse me? 

Employee: How can I help you? 

Customer: 1:30pm 

Employee: Okay. Do you have an appointment with us for 1:30pm? 

Customer: That's what I just said. I'm early and want service now. You're not busy at all. 

What the fuck is wrong with people?

1. Anyone that orders from DoorDash, UberEats, etc. should never be allowed to say a word about inflation.

2. Who is ordering from these things? The prices seem outrageous and most food has a very limited shelf life. Someone ordering fast food? What? Who wants room temperature soggy fries?

People that don't enjoy sitting in drive-thru lines.  I think eventually, franchise owners of chain restaurants will realize their biggest waste of money is real estate if you're not slinging booze.  Just build out and lease a Wendy's kitchen outside of town at $20/foot instead of $40/foot, let delivery services come to you and deliver that shit to the customer directly who doesn't really need "the in-person Wendy's experience."  Whatever the fuck that is.  Ever since they got rid of the newspapers on the table, fuck 'em.

The Oh no song by Kreepa or whoever the fuck it is makes me want to drown a bag of Kittens.

Oh No by Frank Zappa is a great song in all its permutations both lyrical and instrumental. I’ll post one of each. (And spare you a much longer dissertation about the song, the suites it appears in, and the general evolution of the music therein.)

I started dating my wife in 2006.  Started living together in 2009.  Married in 2011.  Kitchen towels are not my responsibility.  There are two towels hanging above the kitchen sink.  I still have no fucking clue what the difference and role of each towel is.

It doesn't matter. Don't touch/use either one of them or you will get them dirty.

How else will the world know that “it’s always time for wine” or that you are “gnome for the holidays”?

When one gets wet you use the other one.

Why do sloppy joes have to be so damn messy?  

I haven’t had a sloppy joe in years. I’ve never had Manwich. My mom always made them from scratch. But out of curiosity I looked for Manwich at the grocery store today. I thought maybe I’d buy a can. Lay’s potato chips were even on sale and I’m a proponent of putting potato chips on a sloppy joe under the bun. I walked up and down both canned food aisles twice and they don’t have it.
