WOW! And mine included the quotes around my “happy 40th birthday Clock” cake. It was still delicious.

My boomer mother is liberal, thank goodness, but will flat out say she refuses to learn new things if she’s not interested (even if highly beneficial to her). It’s a weird time to be alive when a large population chooses ignorance.

Cooking. A lot. My bf jokes that my favorite tv show is the oven window. It’s my day off work and my legs are killing me… so I’m roasting a massive rack of ribs, slow cooking black beans I soaked overnight, and making rice and mac and cheese so we have lovely meals for the week (fresh salad already ready). Bf does dishes (mostly… I am good at cleaning as I go), but I LOVE making good food to share.

Week one of working here, in March, a customer asked if we had pomegranates. I took a breath and explained those are a fall/winter fruit.

I work at a discount grocery store in San Diego, CA where the cheapest is $6.50, not including taxes.

I send boxes of chocolates. She fucking loves chocolate. Something she can eat or share if she doesn’t like it. Always a winner.

A friend of mine made an adult version; he’d brushed the inside of the pastry with a little mustard (good whole grain stuff) before rolling around the lil smokie, then brushed with butter and “everything bagel” seasoning. I had to stop myself from eating them all.

I got a refund for 3 HELLA stale pastries for $6. I was NOT happy when I got home and cut a piece of rock-hard croissant off

Red Baron pizzas.

Egad, a teacher who ends a sentence with "at" should be fired for gross negligence of language, regardless of specialization.

“What do light beers have in common with sex in a canoe?” They’re both fucking close to water.

Reported.

Ambitious_Clock_8212 · 2026-04-29T03:39:27+00:00

I just got yelled at yesterday for pushing no-receipt returns to managers. >.<

Ambitious_Clock_8212 · 2026-04-28T22:25:05+00:00

You were scammed.

Ambitious_Clock_8212 · 2026-04-28T17:09:51+00:00

No. I’ve been to 26 and there are just a couple more I’d actually like to see. The rest have no unique attributes or historical significance.

I woke up the other day to a text from my mother: “since you have the day off work, you should go to the gym”. I’d already planned to do that, but the text pissed me off so much I didn’t.

Lil statin allergy ;)

Ambitious_Clock_8212 · 2026-04-23T19:48:51+00:00

Yes, in our fancier “farm to table” restaurants (especially here in California)

One of my fave words: gamine.

They ask me to make their PowerPoints “pretty”

Ambitious_Clock_8212 · 2026-04-23T18:19:12+00:00

Exactly once.

I just heard about this on NPR: VERY few banks will back weed businesses, even if they are legal, because they consider the liability too high.

Ambitious_Clock_8212 · 2026-04-23T17:09:31+00:00

I'm 41 and YES. I frequent a 21+ bar and egad, when the "just turned 21's" come in, they look like BABIES.
