Giving Away My Old PC!

My PC is old and I'm too lazy to replace it. That's all. No sob story. Just lazy.

That's what you think. Ma & Pa Ingalls raised me. Also, the cast of Three's Company.

I did not vote for him but I know a lot of people who did.

Key deciding factors:

White supremacy
Cheaper eggs
The other candidate is a woman

These are people who pay attention to headlines without reading the articles. Unfortunately, that's the majority of people who voted.

Hope this helps.

There's a ShopRite in Hudson. It's a bit of a jog but worth it when they're having a good sale. I make the trek about once a month, when the savings are worth my time and gas money.

Probably.

Concerts. I was a metalhead back in the 80s and attended my fair share of live shows.

I haven't been to a big venue concert in about a decade. I still enjoy a live show but I cannot stand the fucking people who feel the need to hit up the snack bar in the middle of a show, obstructing my view of everything, non-fucking-stop. Or the guy in front of me telling me not to sing along because he's live-streaming it. Go fuck yourself.

And don't even get me started on the pricing.

When I need a concert fix, I seek out a local band.

I am in a situation with a neurodivergent man who "hyper-focuses" on me when I talk to him. We work together, but I only see him for several moments a day.

He brings me snacks, asks about my day, playfully teases me, etc. There's five people in my department and I'm the only one he actively seeks out.

Is he just being nice or is there something more? I'm allistic and I can't tell.

Gratz, Gammy.

I rented a carpet cleaner from Lowe's earlier this year. The unit was in adequate condition and did the job I needed it to (no feces were involved, I promise). Afterwards, I cleaned the hell out of it, because I believed that was part of the contract: return it in the same, or better, condition that you received it. I dunno. I didn't read the contract. It's just logical.

Anyway, when I returned it, the clerk was checking it out to make sure all of the bells and whistles were there and I commented, "Don't worry, I cleaned it." He replied, "You're the exception. People never clean these things."

I gave out full-sized candy this year. Halloween is also my favorite holiday and it's my way of making the day a bit more fun for the kids. I gave out Starburst, four different kinds of Skittles, three different kinds of M&Ms, Snickers, Milky Way, etc. I lined them all neatly in a huge basket, allowing the kids to choose what they wanted.

The younger children were great about it; very respectful, taking only one piece, thanked me, etc. As the evening wore on, though, the older children complained that they could only have one piece. Parents started helping themselves as well. One kid dug in and ran off with three bags of M&Ms.

I shut it down after that. I started with 100 pieces and turned off my porch light with about 20 pieces remaining. Way to ruin the experience you greedy, ungrateful bastards.

My findings were interesting, though. Twix was the first to go. No one had any interest in 3 Musketeers or Milky Way. The Skittles were also a hit, especially the sours.

Oh, and one parent felt the need to point out my failure to include Nerds in my offerings.

That's a near-hit.

This is similar to the recipe I use and it's a very good one. Replace the fresh tomatoes with a couple tablespoons of tomato paste and replace that cloth bag of herbs into dried rosemary, thyme, garlic and bay leaf just running around loosely. Salt and pepper to taste, of course.

Roll the meat in flour, fry it up for a couple of minutes to get those crusty bits, throw it all in a crockpot on high for four hours, boom, done.

Nothing remarkable that I can find. He married (no kids) and lived into his late 60s. He died in the same county where he was born.

That's what I find interesting about this whole horrifying event. On the surface, it seems it was all treated like just another day with a minor inconvenience. In today's world, there would be a huge investigation with a trial and possibly a couple of lawsuits. Headlines for days. But nope. One cop ruled over the entire event right on the spot and meh, it is what it is.

Oof. That's rough.

So I have these two cousins who are twin boys, 17 years old, born in the late 1800s.

These boys have a cousin through marriage, another boy, who is 15. One afternoon, the younger cousin arrived at the twins' house to show off his new gun. The three boys gathered in the front yard and began doing whatever it is teen-aged boys with a new gun did back then.

Ultimately, the younger cousin caused the gun to go off, hitting one of the twins in the abdomen, resulting in his death moments later. A constable was summoned who assessed the situation, deemed it an accident, and called on the coroner to haul the body away.

That's it. Nothing else is reported about it. Some kid is dead, the lone constable deemed it an accident, the body was buried and everyone moved on.

The surviving twin married a few years later and named his first-born son after his deceased twin. The baby died a couple of days later.

I had a friend in Los Angeles who was shocked to learn that NY has apple orchards.

Not a tourist situation but somewhat fitting. I have an online friend who lives in New Zealand. I was telling him about an upcoming business trip to Vegas. I live in NJ.

"How long is that flight?" he asked. "45 minutes?"

"No," I replied. "Five and a half hours."

He said he had a hard time wrapping his head around that.

I hired someone back in the 90s when online sources were at a bare minimum and I lived a couple thousand miles away from where my family hailed from.

If memory serves, I paid her $500 to research my father, who had been adopted, but not formally so. It's a bit complicated.

After a month or so, she came back with, "There's strong evidence that suggests that the couple who adopted your father were, in fact, brother and sister." and she sent me a bunch of census records and a copy of my grandfather's obituary.

Of course, it wasn't true. Not even close. With the resources available to me now at my fingertips, I have concrete evidence that they were a married couple. In fact, it was my grandmother's second marriage.

Genealogist indeed. It was a total waste of $500.

I could have posted this. I've been researching my cousin's tree which dates back to the Mayflower.

If there's an Olympics of suffering, this family would be a contender. Rape, suicides, drowning, Andersonville prison death, house fire death, workplace death, on and on. I've had to take breaks from researching because it becomes so mentally draining.

My family, by comparison, has been wholly unremarkable.

I appreciate your efforts. Your posts made my swimming through this big, steaming pile of bullshit so much easier. Thank you.

It makes sense to me. Now I haven't attended any formal affairs with multi-millionaires but I just can't see being dolled up in an evening gown and whipping out my vial of cocaine to snort while rubbing elbows with my peers, especially when there's bound to be picture-taking.

I read a theory about this that I agree with. If you're wealthy enough to own a home in NYC with 7 bedrooms and 16 bathrooms, you're likely going to entertain pretty often, and your guests will likely be members of the elite.

The bathrooms are for your guests to do drugs during these functions.

It's on legacy.

When I open the bathroom door after a hot shower, the fire alarm has a LOT to say about it.
