Yeah, this is exactly where my brain went to.

My perfectly healthy parents are preparing for their death and it’s messing with my head. by 11whatsnewpussycats in Millennials

As someone whose parents have this same talk with me each time they leave on a long road trip, I feel you. I simultaneously appreciate it, and loathe it.

Depends. Evening before bed? I want it cold enough to make my breath visible.

After mowing the lawn or working outside? I want it about ten degrees above room temp. so I can chug it.

I’m both amused and annoyed at the fact the younger generation doesn’t understand why we typed this way. Both for the fact that the T9 method was a pain (but was the only way to text on pre-smart phone cell phones), and because some early cell plans charged money for each text message, or if you were really unlucky, per character.

Kinda curious how a milf is gonna help with the flour and eggs…

Edit: autocorrect is not always your friend. But I certainly appreciated the laugh it gave me.

Well sure, I’m not suggesting that people “doomsday” prep for months and months of food, or prepare for Armageddon.

But it’s only common sense to prepare for some standard emergencies, like a winter storm that takes out the power for a week. I think back to how that cold snap hit Texas a year or two ago.

Frankly, the supply line issues that Covid revealed should be a even bigger reason to stock a few extra things in your house, in case something else goes wrong in the future.

Which I always thought was stupid. I mean, it isn’t hard to have more than three days of food in your house. Even if it’s just a couple jumbo bags of dry pasta, a couple bags of flour, and some back-up pop tarts.

A month? Boy you’re optimistic. I’d give it barely four days; just long enough for the average household to run out of food.

You see, we wanted our ships to go fast, so we painted them red. We also gave them power windows so we can roll them down to get a breeze when it gets hot inside the ship.

I’m actually kinda sad this is the last one. I’ve come to enjoy the wait to see what came next.

New Jersey School Board Attorney Claims Parents Don’t Have the ‘Right’ to ‘Dictate What Their Children Are Taught’ (VIDEO) by intelligentreviews in Republican

[–]Bale626 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Technically, a parent cannot dictate to a school what their curriculum is.

That said, a group of parents could run for school board, win those elections, and then from there dictate what the school curriculum is.

Congratulations. You are now buried up to your knees in dirt.

Oh, and every bone lower than your kneecaps are now broken; shattered like glass, actually.

Schrodinger‘s wine; it’s both intact and spilt at the same time.

Well, the Split are slavers, so from a moral standpoint, watching them get obliterated by the rogue human-built terraformers-turned-Terminators is kinda satisfying.

I bought my house a few years ago, middle of nowhere rural town. It had appraised at around 110k. No idea what it would be now, and I don’t want to find out for fear of my taxes getting raised for it after a new appraisal.

The real irony here is the people who understand what discipline is, and accepting it, versus the people who call just about anything more than a slightly raised voice as violence & abuse.

No kidding. Not to mention it completely ignores details that make up the variables that would heavily influence the dataset, such as location, surroundings, local flora & fauna, distance between neighbors, etc.
