Had a tamer but similar hill near my home growing up. Loved speeding down. It ended in a lot filled with gravel. Fortunately the day I spun out on the gravel lot was coming from a different, slower direction. Developed an extremely bad case of road rash all over one leg. When I realized what might have happened if I’d been taking the hill instead, that I probably would have broken my legs or worse, I stopped going down that hill. Realization of mortality can be like a bucket of ice water sometimes.

A proper return to ‘Don’t Feed the Trolls’

I got all the way to the last level once… but never beat it. The lava level man.

In order, Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM), Pokemon, Digimon

Omelettes. So versatile. So good. Of all the combos I love bacon and mushrooms in my american cheese omelettes best of all.

Pancakes are a close second.

Extremely sorry for your loss. What a treasured loved one you got to have. I’m sure he loved you immensely.

I’m with you on the confusion because it’s like… I don’t feel the need to act this way, why do other people? What drives them that, in a void, they resort to these thoughts and behaviors? Is this who they really are, or is it an act, like doing an evil playthrough in a game. “I want to because I can here, and I can’t anywhere else?”

Surprisingly uplifting!

First one is a screencap from Overly Sarcastic Productions. I sadly don’t remember where the second one came from.

I agree.

Isn’t that just what Firefox was before it was Firefox?

We’re really fortunate that our cat loves to gnosh on toys that will scrape her teeth; she’s on an all wet diet to help with bowel issues. Of course I still toss her a few greenies treats every other night because she goes nuts for them and it can’t hurt.

I’ve read it and listened to the audiobook and it really is great. Yes there are some dry parts but they bring their signature flare to helping to understand which makes getting through it a lot easier.

I’ve been complimented on my voice before, and those aren’t weird compliments. But delivery is important. I had a coworker tell me, “Your voice is great!” And of course I’m thankful. But then deadpan, she goes, “You should do ASMR so I can listen to it.”

Now that was a weird compliment.

USA! USA! USA!

Not the above poster but I’ve had dentists share the same sentiment and mostly I’ve heard it’s because the majority of their patients who use it, use it as a replacement for more thorough dental care–they don’t floss and/or brush because they think they’re getting clean enough with the pik. The dentist who told me this basically said, “It’s fine as a supplement after you brush and after you floss, to flush out any lingering debris from those two activities, but it’s really just not worth the time or money.”

It’s holding its tail down!

We both hung out on a Digimon fansite in high school lol
