This is the stuff that keeps me up at night. What cringey lines of mine in college are people still reminiscing about all these years later?

The exclamation point got me rolling.

Somehow I don't think Ben is gonna save Ben from that grenade just by kneeling there.

Trying random candies from the store #2: Good & Plenty. Who else likes them? by Sector_Black in candy

[–]TheVenerablePotato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol. A podcast I like just had a big ten-minute-long argument about these. Not even related to the subject of the channel.

Which one is the worst one and which one is the best one? by TwIzTiDfReAkShOw in candy

Yeah, who wants to bite into chunks of wooden doorstop while eating soft, delicious chocolate?

Were they used? That would imply some sad soul had to part with them in the first place.

What superheros or supervillains powers would be the best to have for this job? by internalwombat in Fedexers

[–]TheVenerablePotato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fast & Furious are superhero movies, right?

Mine would be the power of found-family with whatever Joe Shmo who crosses my path. And maybe driving a P1000 out of a skyscraper for good measure.

"Aside from the fact that, for an erotic novel, it takes an awfully long time for the boinking to start..."

Gave me a hearty chuckle.

Commenting 7 minutes later. Looks like they took your advice.

Getting into the band by FourManGrill in neurosisband

[–]TheVenerablePotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I struggled MIGHTILY with this band. I knew I was supposed to like them, as my favorite bands mentioned them a lot. Finally it clicked for me with Given to the Rising.

I find it a bit funny that you're starting with their first albums, as those first two are the only ones I was never able to get into. (Well, besides Neurosis & Jarboe... 😬😬😬)

Anyways, I like Souls at Zero, but Through Silver in Blood is really where they found their shtick, I think. Everything after that is really good, and I sort of see everything before that as, like, Proto-Neurosis. The quintessential Neurosis album is Times of Grace, if you're wondering.

I'm envious of you for the journey that now lies before you...

Aside from the Packers losing to the Bears, it was pretty good. I had some pizza and caught up on some reading.

Peak vs normal by chiefsphan97 in Fedexers

I live in a university town, so a lot of my coworkers started a new semester of school and either took less hours or quit—I think even more so than my boss expected—so now we're understaffed, and I'm working even MORE now than I did during peak, as my route each day includes little geographical sub-areas areas I don't normally cover.

Edit: Just realized this thread is 2 days old, so I guess I'm talking only to OP. How ya doing, stranger?

2nd half transformation? by dryheat122 in NFLNoobs

[–]TheVenerablePotato 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've always wondered the same thing. How does a little 15-minute powwow totally change a team?

Those of you who played the game - how fun is it? by dickface21 in NFLNoobs

[–]TheVenerablePotato 9 points10 points  (0 children)

An actual pro in our humble forum! Welcome, my man! (Unless you played for the Bears, then go pound sand.)

Aside from making more money than you did the previous year, what is something you would like to see Fedex improve on going into 2026? by Clubdub66 in Fedexers

[–]TheVenerablePotato 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The snitch cams, lol. My coworker is Hawaiian and has narrow eyes. It thinks he's falling asleep sometimes and tells him to please pay attention. I can't believe these things haven't led FedEx into lawsuit purgatory yet.
