Where I grew up the closest neighbor was about 2km away, nearest town was 25k, nearest town with a decent grocery store was around 40km, and the nearest “city” was damn near 100km.

Oktoberfest it is, then.

I have a surprise day off coming up.

I’ve started using that recently and it is very handy.

It’s probably a tie between wikipedia and flashlight.

Graduated in 07. Gave all of my savings to my parents in 08 so they wouldn’t lose their house. Bumbled around for a decade and a half trying to get a degree and start my career only to get shit canned from an okay paying job mid-pandemic.

I was sitting in my pickup outside my apartment listening to the radio and some guy just…got in. I asked “can I help you?” and the look on his face when he realized his mistake was priceless. In his defense Lyft had just started in my area and there was only one other vehicle that looked like mine in that part of the city.

Soufflémmy

Then why is my freezer so full of giant ground sloth?

Mmmmm. Gain.
