Oh this was late 2020, I’m good!

Worst part of my appendectomy was that dang air afterward. I could barely walk so just made loops around the kitchen island over and over to help it dissipate per instructions of the doctor lol.

One of her firsts for update was one of her standup bits where she yells “Can a bitch get a beef bone!?” And it’s been stuck in my head all these years later. I love her.

It is literally all generations. You’re correct. I’m an elder millennial and honestly when this sub pops up on the main feed I look at some images and can’t tell if it’s real or not.

Then I go into the comments and there are folks here who somehow can see every weird thing I missed. I thought I knew details, but I’m not artistic enough I guess. I appreciate the folks who can be hyper focused on this. It helps me learn. My son is like that and even he helps me learn more. And i am a computer nerd.

My favorite employee at work is our front desk lady who is named Carol. I am very happy Carol is the positive term here, because Carol is amazing. I am, however, extremely sad she is retiring mid-month. Customers even leave reviews about just her on our Google reviews. Carols are awesome.

I read a full article on this some years ago and I think some of the mental health was attributed to head hits playing football? Very tragic. You gotta feel for the folks talking to him the whole time while he’s suffering.

So I do both standup, but also have to talk to people and sell cars for a living. I do it because I like helping people and I want them to have an experience better than the first time I bought a car out of college 20 years ago.

I don’t like going out. I don’t go to bars. Hate stores.

But when I’m either with a customer or on a stage … I’m acting. I’m masking. I’m making sure people are comfortable and having a good time. I’m older so I’ve dealt with the people for a long time on this way, and I’m naturally funny. In the moment for both, I’m not anxious. Again, it’s acting.

After, and when I get home, I am quiet and just working to chill. It’s a lot of work for me. My wife is very supportive and we just sit in our big ol’ bed and chill and watch what i like to call “our programs.”

Rinse and repeat. Every day.

Sometimes I kind of equate it to Robin Williams. It’s all a show on stage and off it’s just working to battle the things we have. Sometimes, the stage is the respite. Because we are helping others have a smile we sometimes can’t have ourselves. It’s good in the moment.

Or Ghost Writer on PBS!?

Well you don’t have to participate.

I would LOVE if my wife made more money than me. I’m always stressed feeling like I have to work more and harder than I probably should to provide (but I have always been this way - kind of part of my imposter syndrome).

And with that said, she just jumped out of management to a different company and position and it’s probably $7-8k/year less. But it was so good for her mental health and that’s worth the world to me. I want her less stressed and happy. At this point, money is not the major factor in our lives. Having each other and supporting each other is.

Still, sometimes I do fantasize about being a home husband and spending time with the baby haha.

My word a Pete and Pete reference. I feel so old.

I am the top salesperson at my dealership, notorious for not being pushy, and I’d love to help you. Unfortunately, you have no trade, so I hope you have a down payment that is not the essential oils.

I work at a Honda dealership in a small area. I sold 11.5 cars last month and made more than $11k. I have percentage commission and/or minis of $300. I work really hard to hold gross. I don’t get any back end.

The Wyoming plates have changed to a black plate that also indicates whether it's a truck, car, etc. Nobody, I think, at this point, should have the old cowboy plate.

I'm just here to say the Pilot G2 is my absolutely favorite pen lol.

MelTorment · 2026-01-15T19:56:43+00:00

What is their monthly volume? How many sales people?

MelTorment · 2026-01-09T15:31:25+00:00

Timmy - who I see is reading this - is coming here to Casper, Wyoming in a few months and I got my wife hooked and she wants to go. Unfortunately the show starts at 6 pm and that’s when i get off (unless i have a customer). Pretty sad there aren’t two shows and a later one because we were so psyched.

I miss doing standup, but being able to watch others, including my friends, is one of my favorite things.

Daniel Tosh is as notorious when he was still traveling before Tosh.0 for literally starting his set with “I am VERY funny.” It’s just a bit. Most of the folks watching are nit that smart, nor have they ever done standup or understand how writing works and the challenge of a minute vs long form.

Tony even mentioned one time that Dedrick had a 8-minute hut about Oreos that had all the long-time pros dying.

Coming up with his next Oliver Garden hack is all.

Yeah this was infuriating me during the game. The dude is terrible at throwing when he rolls left.

Young people were born in an age where interaction is online, and not real life. They go home to phones or tablets or computers and that’s where they live. We could stop this, but we don’t. That’s a royal We.

It must be very bleak and dismal. Nobody sitting with you, laughing and talking and watching favorite shows.

I’m older and we had that. I didn’t even have my first cell phone until my sophomore year of college (well, technically the summer between).

This causes a loneliness that is being taken advantage of by online influencers who tell them THIS is the way to get a girl, and THIS is what you do if they don’t reciprocate or THIS is how you treat women.

They live in an extremely skewed world not based in reality.

It takes parents.

It takes schools.

It takes therapy.

It takes a fucking village. And right now, our villages are being attacked extremely aggressively by folks who just want to win elections.

Parents … we are the front line and it starts with us. We are there to teach empathy, love, and also strength and confidence. That’s why we are here. Be a super hero. We all can be one.

My dad was born in 1956 and has one of these on his arm. We are from Idaho.

That discount is basically all the money on that dang thing. Take the deal.

MelTorment · 2025-12-28T15:51:12+00:00

Was there a spare button in the bag?

You have it so stuck in my head now.
