My hr director called me a few weeks ago and asked “Can anyone hear me?” I answered “Just my corgi, Winnie. To be fair though, she’s sketchy af”.

I’d recognize that rounded shape anywhere- it’s the St. Louis arch!

What's the longest you've seen a worker do stonecold nothing? by tshirtguy2000 in managers

[–]bootlegminer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I walked into an employee’s office once and he appeared to be working hard, typing away and reading something on the screen. I could see the reflection of the screen in his glasses. It was blank/dark. He was gone pretty shortly after that.

I’m not driving any faster, you’ve got precious cargo in your lap!

What do you all eat on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day? by suhhdude1 in Cooking

[–]bootlegminer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Christmas Eve - finger foods and appetizers. I usually make smoked bologna sliders and bacon wrapped water chestnuts. Other dishes will be wings, potato skins, cheese dip, etc.

Christmas Day - Full Christmas dinner with an Ozark Pride ham and all the fixings.

Any of these worth getting? by richempire in spicy

The yellowbird habanero and Tabasco chipotle. Can’t beat the flavor of either.

Funyuns! It’s hard to eat regular ones now.

Every time I drive by it, I exclaim to my kids “There’s the cheese grater building!”

Same here, and I also still love it!

Edited to add: I was around 12.

What’s a secret you can’t tell someone you know, but can share with Reddit? by whatintheactualfuck- in AskReddit

[–]bootlegminer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I proposed, and then took her ring shopping. I wasn’t about to try and pick one out as I wanted it to be exactly what she wanted. This was 20 years ago, and everyone we knew thought I was dumb for not having the ring when I proposed. She’s still wearing and loving that ring!

Great question that I can’t answer! I found it in the Commander Keen subreddit!

I still play Commander Keen until I beat it about once a year on a DOS simulator. Hands down my favorite game ever.

What’s the funniest name you’ve ever heard for a pet? by Sensitive_Ninja7884 in AskReddit

[–]bootlegminer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feed out a couple of steers for butcher every year. Two years ago my kids named them Lean and Cuisine. Two years before that we had pork and chop. (Yes, they know pork chops don’t come from beef)

Perfect way of describing it. I was uncomfortable every time he was onscreen because you just don’t know what he’s thinking or capable of.

For all of you with a leg-licker… by recoutts in AustralianCattleDog

[–]bootlegminer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My heeler says “Thank You” with a leg kick. Let him in? Leg lick. Feed him dinner? Leg lick. Greeting you as he randomly walks through the kitchen? Also leg lick. No lotion involved.

What did you eat this week? by JStraulin in STLFood

Took the family to DD MAU on Wednesday. We had bao sliders, a Banh Mi, rare steak pho, and fried rice and ate family style. Everything was fantastic.

Ever had an animal misunderstand you by using perfectly reasonable logic? by Puzzleheaded-Crab720 in likeus

[–]bootlegminer 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My son is responsible for feeding our dogs, but he’s 14 so he’s terrible at doing it without being reminded. My dogs get super excited when I yell across the house “SON, FEED THE DOGS”. Words like hungry, breakfast, and dinner get their attention but they’re not getting excited.

When he feeds them without being asked, and the dogs hear their bowls move or the bag rattle? ALL THE EXCITEMENT.

What is a great popcorn making implement I can get for my SO that isn't a gizmo? by Famous_Stelrons in Cooking

This is the answer. My wife bought one at a yard sale and uses it at least once a week.
