  • so many good options on here already so I’ll add one that’s a little more of a dedicated game:

    Arkham lcg.

    you create a deck that represents the character you will play in a series of approximately eight games where you cooperatively work through Lovecraftian mysteries loaded with interesting stories lore and twists.

    has almost a tabletop RPG feel to it if it was converted to a card game, absolutely love it.



  • my wife and I are joint, just easier that way. what surprises me more is that someone would set up alerts for the low expense levels that would be triggered by Taco bell.

    I don’t really understand why folks would do separate it just seems like more trouble for no benefit unless there has been a specific reason or issues to trigger that.

    (for example my dad and stepmom had separate accounts after she spent so much one Christmas that I had to pay their rent)






  • so I actually had a friend years back who worked at a junkyard.

    I was hanging out there with him one time (definitely probably not smoking anything…) and he was still clearing things out.

    so he grabs a propane tank and brings it up to where he has an oxyacetylin torch, lights the torch and starts cutting into the tank.

    I about shit my pants and took off at least 50 ft back behind a car asking if he was trying to die today.

    apparently I was the one that didn’t know what I was talking about though because of a second later he cut through and it just popped a little flame.

    he just let that flame burn until it was out and that’s how he knew the tank was empty.

    apparently these things are very hard to blow up.



  • yeah they definitely need to improve degradation time, but there absolutely is reason to use them instead of TP.

    I don’t use all the time but tried them during recovery based on the recommendation of the surgeon that removed my hemorrhoids.

    significantly easier on the healing bum than tp was, bidet gets most of it but you’re not 100% clean every time.

    (I don’t think I’ve ever not had to wipe a time or two even after lots of movement and higher pressure on bidet. wipes clean better than tp, and bidet just doesn’t get everything unless you’re one of those lucky people that wouldn’t use much tp anyway)









  • at my old company I had a co-worker who was moderately competent if he tried but didn’t seem to do so all that often.

    My boss had been dangling a promotion for me for a few months, and I’d put in some extra work during that time related to my co-worker who seemed to be unable to manage a development team for one of his projects.

    promotion time came and even though my manager was very aware that I was doing a significant portion of a co-worker’s job, they offered the co-worker the promotion in order to keep them around since they had another job offer.

    I think I was gone in about 2 months? didn’t take too long to line something better up.
