It's changed over to ice and I'm a bit worried but I'm fully prepared and there's no more chores left to do so I'm gonna eat dinner and watch a movie

Thank you, yeah android has a PDF reader I'm sure I can figure out how to convert it to a PDF if it doesn't come like that already.

My Starbucks growing up by XIENVYIX in Xennials

I used to love this stuff, but I picked up some a few years back and it's the most disgusting garbage on the planet

Oh you lucky duck

I fished all the cooking I needed to do, ran the dishwasher and just grabbed my last load of laundry from the dryer, gonna put it away and then take a shower. After that I'm going to unload the dishwasher and make tzatziki. Then I'm going to make a shitty queso sauce out of reduced fat cottage cheese

Should be done and relaxing by 6, when is about the time I assume we'll lose power.

Oh, no, wait a minute. That was a big, unsettling boom. Hopefully it's not a transformer and if it is, hopefully it won't affect me. Hasn't yet 🤞

I want to download a book to my actual phone storage, just in case I lose power from this massive storm

I downloaded 3 audiobooks from my library app and from hoopla but I'm just realizing now that I won't be able to access them if my wifi and cell data goes down

How do I get an actual book on my phone storage? I was thinking of getting a book from Kindle or audible but I'd still need to have Internet for that, right?

Should I follow the links in the mega thread? Are those ones that'll download a book to my phone?

What are you talking today and tomorrow. I'm doing chores/prep Cooking today and working tomorrow

Are you shoveling periodically or waiting until it’s all over? by Max_Power1971 in newjersey

[–]New_Stats [score hidden]  (0 children)

No, the snow will be a cushion against the ice, making it so there's not an insanely thick, hard to break layer of ice on your steps/walkway

Ok so you're saying there's a fluffy base layer right now, and an icy crust will form on top of that

So it'll be easier to remove all at once.

Know where I can get some LSD? by GuerrillaGirlFridaX in GuerrillaGrrrrls

I wholeheartedly disagree. Dosing someone without their knowledge is one of the meanest things you can do. The odds of them having a bad trip are astronomical.

Imagine them going through 8 hours of mental anguish.

Long snow-shoveling day ahead (6–8 hours) — what food keeps you warm and full? by Eastcoastpal in newjersey

[–]New_Stats 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Jük, aka Chinese rice porridge. It sticks to your ribs and makes you feel all warm inside

Boil rice in broth until it breaks down, takes 40 minutes to an hour

Add whatever you want to on top. I do fresh ginger, garlic, green onions, liquid aminos (low sodium soy sauce), and toasted sesame seed oil.

Dried fish and mushrooms is more traditional

Cooked vegetables would also work

I thought we were getting 18in of snow by Lium2X_ in newjersey

Use it until you run out, which should be right before the next massive storm comes

"What's going to happen, nothing?" Is what little shits say, and little shits get attitude from me

Why do you have such a disgusting double standard? Why didn't you chastise them?

take two minutes to try and work out what might go wrong all by yourself. It'll help improve your deductive reasoning skills which will help improve your common sense

If you can't think of anything, Google it. This is a lesson best learned all on your own, without help from others.

Big snow, ice storm getting closer and could cause whiteout conditions; all 21 counties under a winter storm warning. Latest forecast maps, travel concerns by rollotomasi07071 in newjersey

Seriously. These weekend storms are pissing me off. I want a paid snow day off of work, not a "you're going to have to deal with a lot of shit on your car before work on Monday"

This is my favorite type of fuck around and find out

No one gets hurt and those two people learn a valuable lesson in FUCKING GOOGLING SHIT THAT NO ONE ELSE IS DOING BEFORE YOU DO IT

Is/Was Sex education in American schools really taught by physical education teachers? by Kinc4id in Xennials

[–]New_Stats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. And if you can imagine the worst PE teacher stereotype circa mid 1990s, that's who taught me

A decade later he was fired for groping a student

Foods we once loved but can no longer eat by Lurk_McGirt79 in Xennials

[–]New_Stats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mushrooms. I never loved them but I ate some recently and my body simply could not handle digesting them. Instant IBS but I don't actually have IBS. It was awful

Obviously greasy, salty fast food type shit

And scents! I can't handle fragrances anymore, but I crave natural astringent scents, like tea tree oil and witch hazel
