The thing that stuck with me was: “TWO!”

I’ve often wished for a searchable brain. No more not being able to think of that thing or someone’s name or what exactly happened when.

In November 1988, I traveled to Yugoslavia and met the Medjugorje visionaries who claim that Mary, the mother of Jesus, appears to them.

Updates: Yugoslavia no longer exists. I am now an atheist.

Our cat has been trying to kill us for 21 years. He wasn’t feeling well recently, but after a vet visit and meds, I knew he was feeling better as soon as he darted across my path and I almost tripped.

I’m a woman, and what bothers me is when the woman is not believable in that role. Men are generally stronger than women – that’s just a fact. But some women are exceptionally strong and trained in combat. If you’re going to cast someone in a role that’s supposed to show us a strong woman, then for fuck’s sake, she’d better be a strong woman, not a gorgeous woman who just looks great in a tank top and a sheen of sweat. It’s obvious she would be easily overpowered by any of her male opponents, but we’re supposed to believe that she’s kicking all their asses.

Someone else suggested Alien would be accused of wokeness had it been released today. I don’t think so. Ripley was just a regular, somewhat fit woman, and the things she did were believable for someone with her physique and level of training. That’s why that movie works.

Open a goddamn ticket.

The way you described then makes me think of the “make sure your man double-bags” scene* in Shawshank Redemption.

*WARNING: Major spoilers for the movie if you haven’t seen it. In which case, you should really go see it. It’s one of the best movies in existence.

You should tell them this is not 'Nam. There are rules.

What I do is find a similar item that costs less and use that for that item.

Makes me think of this guy.

It’s frustrating when you know there’s a huge gap between your comprehension and theirs, but they think you’re the idiot.

Did you try burning sage?

My husband did report-writing for a few years. #GIGO

I was going to suggest putting signs up that clearly state the search bar isn’t Google, but I realized that even if you did, they would likely get ignored. You may even already have them up.

I don’t make the rules, man, I’m just trying to do my job.

I feel this so much.

I can’t imagine. Must be so aggravating.

We literally just today unwrapped a new Whirlpool washer. I’ll keep that in mind next time though.

So he decided to hoof it.

My husband is a DBA and I hear him on his work calls sometimes. Same shit, weakest link on the call holding up everybody’s work day.

I’d be tempted to lock them back out and leave.
