I hope you feel better.
I had my second one on the 6th and it messed me up for two days... But on the plus side, now I can go back to licking strangers in the grocery store.
I think... I forget when the CDC said we can go back to licking strangers and random outdoor public objects, but it's probably soon.
Maybe.
serve the overlords by operating the can opener.
Loki was a bratt wasnt he?
totally cute scene. dont forget your " "umbrella::
now watching Jeopardy with a guest host. I'm wearing my number 12 jersey. Guess what? The guest host has the same last name as that is on my jersey (Rodgers). I think that Mr. Rodgers is the guess host for jeopardy.
Complaint: Not fun reaction to Covid shot, I think. The arm I had the shot in feels cold. Not blue cold, but it tingles and is noticeably colder when I touch my face. When I got the shot the nurse told me to move my arm periodically for the next several hours. I didn't. Felt blah, took a nap, vegged in front of the TV. So, now I am pretending I'm a windmill and am swatting invisible bats out of the air, and stretching arm muscles, and squeezing puppy hea... er rubber balls. Hope my arm warms up before it drops off.
No, I'm not worried about a blood clot. I take blood thinners and when I got the shot, she pulled the needle out and quickly squealed "Oh, you're a bleeder." and grabbed a gauze to mop up the mess and then applied a band-aid.
Edited to add: It's only been 10 minutes and already, the tingling is gone and the temperature seems to have evened out with the other arm.
Moral of story: Don't ignore medical advise.
If they've had you over for dinner more than 3 times and haven't perforated you yet, then they just might be law abiding gun owners. They do exist, and by the millions.
And if they've had you over for more than 5 dinners over the years, then it may even be possible that they respect you. Or they might even like you!
The NFL has nothing to do with football. If they did, I'd watch their games. But right now, I find them even more preachy than Hollywood.
Your complaints are all valid. Carry on good sir, carry on.
You might want to avoid licking LG's relatives. If they think you have rabies, they might put you down. Get your shots, wear your tags, and don't forget to include the one that says where you live!
No, not the Catvor Dog! I heard those are more viscious than a werewolf!
If it's a pet Catvor Dog, it wouldn't be begging. It would just take a bite out of your leg. If it's the Norse demigod Loki, you should know that I locked him up in a jar of pickled pigs feet, with a couple of added ghost peppers. Ain't nobody getting THAT lid off that jar anytime soon. Swim, Loki, swim!
is weird sammiches cut in triangles taste better?
...this type of thing vexes me as well.
A year or so ago I picked up the old 1968 EU Compact Car (basically a model of an original Mini Cooper), as I thought it would be nice for illustrations in my stories that that take place in the UK. Unfortunately when I rendered it, I found the tyres were not totally round (as if no smoothing was applied) and neither where the wheel well cut outs. I tried increasing the LOD but as it had ngons it distorted surfaces on other parts of the vehicle. Same when applying smoothing. So, it would have required a decent amount of kitbashing to just correct the imperfections. Maybe for a distant shot it was OK but not close in ones. Fortunately I got it at a deep discount so I didn't lose very much, but it was a disappointment nonetheless.
It's not just here or over at Rendo either, I've seen poor quality models (in some cases that wouldn't pass QA here) even at the pro content sites, some of which are on the expensive side fo us mere mortals.
Misty, What browser are you using? I am using Chrome, and I never have a problem with the webp files. Just right-click on the image, select save as, click the drop-down for file type and select "All", and then just change the extension to jpg. It's not a lot of work. In fact, you can just change the extension on the webp file that you have to jpg and it will work just fine!

In firefox Go to
about:config, findimage.http.acceptand set*/*as value. Gets rid of that problem.So I was in Walmart just a couple hours ago. While I was comparing coffee makers, I heard a terrific crash in the back of the store. It was loud; very loud! And I said to myself, what did they drop a boat back there?
So I walked back to see what was up, and sure enough, TWO BOATS had fallen off a cart that the workers were using to stock the store. They were standing around looking at them and obviously thinking, "what now?". Rowboats, carbon fiber or something.
So I said to the workers, "Wow, a boat crash at Walmart!" They did not appreciate my witty nautical humor, as evidenced by the side-eye glances all four of them gave me. Hey, get it, a boat crash at an inland Walmart? I mean really, THAT'S FUNNY!
Can't win them all, though, so I moved on to find some ant and roach baits. Hey, I tried.
Irony is best appreciated at a distance.

They sell rowboats at your Walmart...? I'm jealous... I bet the price checker devices work there and they probably stock the shelves and reorder stuff when they are out... the shopping carts probably have wheels too, not gnarled hexagonal disks tangled with clumps of hair and string*.
When my wife's parents used to live in Illinois and Nebraska and we'd visit, I used be confused by how nice their Walmart's (and the now defunct Kmarts) were... Here they are just huge big box sadness depositories... most of the aisles look like Visigoths sacked the damned shelves, whatever you went there for- they are out of, nothing has a price**, forget EVER getting anyone to open any locked display cases as there is one key and legend says it was once held by Dave in sporting goods, but he was defeated by Smalgrorg The Destroyer and now you must defeat Smalgorg to possess the key, but today is his day off and he'll probably be back next Thursday, maybe, but if you want you could look for the manager's and ask him to open it, but nobody has seen him in five years... but if you wanna give it whirl, there's a Ouija board and a couple of his bones in a bucket next to broken water fountain by the bathroom... just follow the odor...
Its like the whole store is LARPing Moscow State Food Store #42 in the winter of 1982...(obscure 80s Soviet food shortage reference).
*Where the flippity flux does all this hair and string come from?... they don't have carpets in the store and as far as I can tell they don't have any musk oxen or woolly mammoths in the stores either, unless they only come out at night... But yet, almost all the Walmart's and Targets around here have huge clumps of hair and string jamming up the wheels of their shopping carts.
There is like whole toupee attached to each wheel... what the hell is going on there?
**Nothing ever has a price on the shelf where the item is and 82.7% of the time, if it does have a price, its wrong... I guess they gave up on the idea of letting customers know what the price of stuff in their stores around here...
That practice started some time ago when they installed price checker devices around the stores... annoying, but... actually no, just annoying... Unfortunately one by one the price checkers would disappear until most store would have maybe one working unit, despite the fact that they still had all the ceiling level signs saying "Price Checker Down Here" with a bright yellow arrow pointing down to a bunch of frayed dangling wires...
Now... as far as I can tell, most of the stores don't have any functioning price checkers and the new idea is either to reject the item at the register or go on a quest for an employee who... A- Looks so infinitely bereft of hope you are afraid to disturb them, B- Appears to have stolen an employee uniform and is just pretending to work there, or C- Looks like the trunk of their car is probably filled with mannequin heads with the eyes drilled out... all so you can ask them to use their iPhone 2 to scan the barcode and reveal to you the price, like you are trapped in some sad 90s RPG where you have to go from shopkeeper to shopkeeper collecting random bits of information to figure out where Smalgorg's castle is...
If you can find someone...
The worst part about this incredibly crappy idea is that when you do find someone, almost every item they try to scan gives them a problem... so the end result is literally like the worst, barely functional price checker device had the ability to walk around the store hiding from you and really needs a shower.
Though, at that point after walking back and forth 136 times across the store, it's hard to tell if it's them or you and if it's sweat or despair.
...ah, "mystery pricing". One of the irritations I run into at the grocery market i shop at. Like the Walmart you mention about above, try and find an employee who has a barcode scanner.
being on a tight budget. I like to know he price before i put it in the trolley Another issue this market has is not taking down sales price tags after the offer had expired. I'll see something that's on special, put it in the trolley, purchase it, and when I get home and look over the receipt notice it scanned out at a higher price. Not about to walk (or currently with my back issue, hobble) back to the store.
It never used to be this bad as this market was part of a regional chain that a few years ago was bought out be a big grocery conglomerate from back east.
The cats have been fighting lately. I am not sure why. They have two water bowls, two food bowls, two heating pads, and two litter boxes. They get the same amount of treats and I try to cuddle them equally. But they are territorial creatures and never bonded that well. So I have Feliway coming tomorrow. It should calm them down and get them to tolerate each other again. I've used it with success in the past, but maybe they just need a refresher.
Been listening to The Men's Room today (a radio show from Seattle). They are asking people about the craziest interaction they've had with a customer. It reminded me of this one time in Florida.... I was working the graveyard shift at a Krystals in Florida one night. Someone forgot to lock the door that night and a man came in with no arms and no pants! I freaked out and hid behind the counter. He started asking to use the bathroom. My manager came out from the kitchen and chased the man off. As he did, I saw that the man wasn't really armless, he just had his arms tucked into his shirt because it was winter and he was cold. I felt so bad for him. He must have been robbed. But ****, he scared the crap out of me!
been doing it this way. after a 120 pages of prod lib i ready to surrender earth to the daleks
it feels like i'm being punished for being a good customer
Mysti: If you are still looking for a can opener check your thread in the PC forum.
asks siri what day it is today. doh
Hey, I had my mask on and I kept 6 feet away from the boats. What more could I have done, phoned it in?
Cowboy boots help me deal with cowpies, dogpies, and catpies much better than heels. Besides that, heels don't look good on us.
Yeah, we have rowboats, but then almost every neighborhood has ponds and lakes in it. So there's actually a market for it, although nobody has boats unless they have big homes with big boathouses.
So I'll tell you this: Those "Big Box Sadness Depositories" are just super-busy stores. In lower-middle to upper-middle class neighborhoods, we're just buying everything in a Walmart. In fact, I see the buying going as an uncontrolled addiction, which is why the shelves are empty and the floors are trashed.
In the upper class neighborhoods (I visit all demographic areas, so I know), the Walmarts are somewhat less busy, less trashed, and have fewer empty shelves.
Yep, and I have a theory on this.
You're right! I suspect it's because Walmart still lets feral chupacabra and cats shop late nights. The cats are lured in by string and catnip, and the chupacabra come for the cats. You know, kind of like "Ladies Night" at your favorite college watering hole!
Except that in this case, by the end of the night, the cats no longer need their wallets and purses, while the chupacabra have bought up everything by using the cats credit and debit cards.
That's my "hair and string theory," and I'm sticking to it.
If you need evidence, try this on for size: You may have heard that McDonalds is removing some of its "in-Walmart" stores. I submit to you that's because neither chupacabra nor cats eat at Mickey D's. So there, it's an open and shut case!
In Central Florida, we used to have all kinds of grocery stores, from Albertson's to Winn-Dixie and everything in between. Now it's just Publix and a thousand bodegas.
Have you considered getting them a chupacabra friend? Nothing says, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" more than a common...predator? Hmmm, that sounded way better in my head...
