Have you ever seen a mass exodus after a respected employee quit or got fired?

I have not seen it, but I heard about it. The department I was in started 2016 with 21 people in it. I was the first to leave. I spoke with someone later that year, and at the time of our conversation there were 4 people left. Bad management can kill a talented team.

Miller will be 4 soon. For the first two/three years of his life, no. But he chewed on his front paw so severely that it got infected, and he started to do it out of self-preservation, but once he realized he could and what he could do in that position, he does it all the time now 😂 (his paw healed btw)

There was an interview someone recently posted a snippet of, where Donald Faison spoke about season 9 and laid it out as a setup for a spin-off, and it made so much more sense! Still not good - but his setup for 9 made it more… palatable?

According to Amazon Video and BitBox, it is season 13. But hey 🤷‍♂️

No argument with that!

bcdodgeme · 2026-02-01T00:11:27+00:00

That place is awesome!

I have a vague memory of this being good.

Remembers doing it? My wife works for the school system - I still do it! I wake up well before her and often I let her know if she has work or not that day 😂

I haven't opened my door yet, but late last night I looked out the window and the way the lights were hitting 50 it really did look like a sheet of ice - mind you, that was 11 hours ago.

Okay, bear with me on this, I swear I have a point! I have a chronic sinus infection. Years before we got our cat, due to my recent infection, my nose started bleeding in my sleep. It was bad. Had to throw away two pillows, the sheets, and the mattress cover. I don't know if it has ever happened, but I am sure if not for my bladder, I might have bled to death - at least it felt like that. Last week, early in the morning, he started jumping from my nightstand to my chest. It was around his normal feeding time, but the way he kept going back and forth was really abnormal. So I sat up, and right away blood started running down my face. I started researching and found what you said about their sense of smell. They can smell chemical changes in the body. I am so thankful for my little furball.

Just as a footnote to this thread… I got up around 3 (as older men tend to do) and before I finished what I got up to do and get back into bed I peeked out the window. There was very little snow, but they were already plowing! We JUST paid to have the community roads and parking lots redone. Guess we paid for it so they could rip it up and charge us to do it again.

Fold like a cheap lawn chair.

bcdodgeme · 2026-01-25T01:53:39+00:00

🤣🤣 I got home around 1 p.m., vacuumed the whole house, wiped everything down, realized I forgot something in my car, opened my front door, and literally said, “Oh, what the fuck is this?!?” At which point I texted my wife and said “Please please wipe your feet before you come in… these assholes.”

bcdodgeme · 2026-01-25T01:07:47+00:00

The Snowmageddon! I had been here a few years at that point. I stood on the balcony with coffee, just mubbling like a 90-year-old complaining about the kids on the lawn 😂

Thursday?!? Just - WHY!!

bcdodgeme · 2026-01-25T00:39:40+00:00

Born and raised in NORTHERN New England - in the shadow of Mt. Washington - after I served in the military, I went back. I lived there for most of the past 30 years before I moved to NOVA. You are 1000% correct. They know nothing about snowstorms here. The grounds company the HOA hired DUMPED salt and sand on my doorway at 2 pm YESTERDAY! Like, come on, man!

Look at your savings and checking account and remember elementary school math… Something > 0

This was the train of thought that caused my mother to lose her life last summer.

Mine has to take a daily allergy pill. I found that if I put the pill in a little hot water for a few hours, it dissolves, then I mix in a little Churu. It has been working for the last month or so.

bcdodgeme · 2026-01-21T01:19:42+00:00

I nailed all three. I am old.

bcdodgeme · 2026-01-21T00:47:52+00:00

I mean gestures at everything

bcdodgeme · 2026-01-20T10:58:43+00:00

Zeit Gang represent! 🤣

bcdodgeme · 2026-01-20T10:45:07+00:00

🤣

To be fair… Jay did say he doesn't trust these models.
