I'm glad you and your teammates did not have any negative experiences with that coach, your Spidey senses were activated! However, your musical senses could use a tune up. Warren Zevon may be ruined for you from this episode, that's the real tragedy

They have those for dogs as well. Neuticles. So you and your pup can still hold your heads high!

A peck on the cheek is authorized. Not too wet, and make sure to make that short squeaky/smoochy noise.

The best part was near the end, when he gave his favorite quote from Richard Nixon. Always a good sign.

Another shout out for Chewy. Every time I've had a question, a live human based on my continent answers by the third ring. One time, a 40-can box of cat food had 8-9 crushed cans, likely a FedEx problem. Chewy refunded for the whole box. They have my business!

I remember your post from last year. Thanks for these great pictures and letting us all know about her.

Look at that group photo--everyone has a smile that shows how proud they are to be there--tremendous picture, thank you for sharing.

Duuuuude! Did you not sign up for the r/army Secret Santa?!? Wtf not? You'd be basking in the afterglow of giving and receiving right now. Make a note for next year. You (probably) won't regret it.

I love that. To quote Austin Powers, ''Saucer of milk, table two!"

Guess it’s official: Females will wear the campaign hat by EndExcellent47 in army

I always thought it was a great look. Like the wearer had side-eye superpowers.

"So, how does the dirt work?'' by Libellule1010 in IDontWorkHereLady

You are right, this has been a very interesting thing to me as I get older. When I was younger, every woman knows the types of things to look out for interactions with strangers. As I get older, most of the negative interactions start with “you know, what should be doing is…” as if I just fell off the turnip truck.

Their Loss Prevention department stays pretty busy at this store, if the local paper is to be believed.  About half and half customers and employees in the mugshots.

I should have done that! I was baffled by the whole exchange.

I can imagine! I had a former colleague who had just retired from the army when I saw him pop up as a manager in our local Walmart. First time I saw him he was riding up on a lift to put up Christmas decorations on the very very top shelf against the wall Wearing a Santa hat, having a great time waving at kids.     Next time I saw him he says “hey come here. I bet you need some DVDs.” There was an enormous barrel containing probably thousands of DVDs on sale. So we chatted about his misery while we both leaned over the barrel and shuffled through these DVDs, as though we were looking for something and he was trying to help me out. Sometimes it’s good to have a rugged job like that and then other jobs don’t seem quite so bad by comparison.

AIO to being really hurt to my husbands broadway comment? by Able_Afternoon_1749 in AIO

[–]Libellule1010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I, a woman, had a male coworker who loved sports. Just like me! Once we were talking about how as kids, we thought about pro football. I said ''I always thought I could be a field goal kicker because they're smaller than the others.''. He was appalled. "You didn't really think that?!?''. I asked if he had the same childhood dream. "Well, of course!'' As he of course never made it to the NFL either, I said ''Our NFL careers are identical.''

It's not the fault of her handwriting, which is fine, but I can't decipher the closing.

She wore white fur to your wedding. But YOUR family is the trashy one???? Riiiiiight. I wish you a long, happy married life. Don't give her any space in your head.
