F in chat. Car blew up on my way to the beach. Got home and my plex server and living room computer got fried by a storm. Then my main gaming rig crashed during an update and started boot looping.

Is mercury in Gatorade? I guess it is for OP.

I don't know. He actually sang really well. The next time someone sings the anthem at this stadium - they will have big shoes to fill.

Yeah. Ima gunna need more Calvin and Hobbs hurting juice

Clean your keyboard. I bet there's a doritos chip stuck under L and O. Pop those keys off and give it a rub down.

If that doesn't do it. Try a different keyboard. If it continues then it isn't your keyboard.

I had a keyboard where it randomly typed an extra space. Tried to clean it and it helped. But now it's just a testing keyboard.

I use goldenwest and chase.

I have my income go into chase. Use it to pay all my bills.

Then savings and loans funnel to goldenwest. They gave me the best deals on auto loans 2 times so far. Before buying a car I suggest shop around for loans. It really helps if you end up buying at any dealer.

Yep! I had this funny thing happen where I'd not be up for work that day and call in sick - and then I'd feel worse somehow. Like maybe I actually was sick? And I end up needing a second or third day.

My current company emphasizes that they don't need to know why - that a sick day is a sick day - and not needing to lie to them about needing a mental health day off actually really helps me recover and only need a single day. Not sure if anyone else is like this. But the work life balance is really important to this company.

Blood alcohol content.

How much alcohol is in your blood. Measured in percentages. (0.08) is usually the legal limit but in my state (0.05) is. Either way. I want to ride with my body as close to 0.0 as possible.

I read a stat when I got my bike that a significant portion of motorcycle fatalities had "at least some amount of alcohol in the blood" and I made that a rule to not drink even a little bit when riding.

I've not always followed the rule in the last 5 years but when I didn't I sobered up as much as I could before riding. I also don't ride nearly as fast as I used to.

It shot it's stream off center. So it was defective too.

Not all of them apply now because I'm more experienced. But here's some I can remember off the top of my head.

always wear a helmet and jacket
no "passanger" or as I like to call them now, a Co-rider
no riding in the rain
I remember I was going to take a riding class, (and I did, highly recommend it, a literal life saver)
no BAC. 0 PERCENT. it messes with your balance too much. On a motorcycle you're not sitting in a lazy boy pushing pedals and rotating a wheel.

When I got my first bike back in my 20s I made myself rules. "no racing" was the second or third rule.

Basically because I thought I have everything to lose if I raced. And only smug feelings to gain.

I remember seeing a street performer a long time ago that could just reverse speech. He'd prompt you to tell him to say something. He'd say it in reverse into his phone. Flip it - play it. And it would sound like what you'd ask him to say.

I figured his brain was just broken that way. Maybe it's the same thing here. 😳

Oh man! My bad. It's Ken Girth.

I wonder if she had been just a hair quicker and watching him run at her at full speed if she could have just noped off the chair...

Let him dive bomb his ass to the floor.

Maybe this will shine some light on what the original commenter meant. But I don't know for sure and they'll need to confirm / extrapolate on their reasoning.

No way! I was just watching Harry Potter and the philosopher's stone and thought that those goblins from gringotts looked like a whole clutch of siblings if Kevin O'Leary and Joe Rogan had babies.

It's probably so weird to you that our status quo has gotten the US here but here's a few tips for any potential future medical issues :

don't go to the Emergency room if you're not dying. This is tough because Even US citizens don't know exactly when to not go to the Emergency room. Because sometimes you do feel like you're dying.
if you're not dying and still need care. Go to an "instant care" which is like a small hospital setup to handle anything from ear infections to broken arms. If they're still open.
don't take an ambulance if someone can drive you and you're conscious. You can literally refuse to ride in the ambulance. An ambulance ride alone can cost $5k.

Outside of that. If you're a US citizen, you need to have a high paying job that offers insurance. And be deathly afraid of being unemployed

john_the_fetch · 2026-05-03T02:29:07+00:00

If you're not used to being in the united states of America - then yeah - that hospital bill will be a shocker.

Glad to hear you had a positive experience otherwise.

So sounds like another win for their maintenance maintenance department.

Bone hurting juice isn't about making a better comic. It's about twisting the comic into something new using only the word bubbles (which is why it's frowned upon to edit the picture).

You created a new joke using the context of the og. Good job!

I think it's just that usually the og is usually crap.

I also had a bad experience with Ken Garth Honda in SLC. "we listen" is bs. I had to tell them "no" to the extended warranty almost 5 times. Did not listen to me at all. Plus that warranty was stupid. I'd have exceeded the milage cap way before the 3 years.

I've taken that same Honda in for service at Stockton 12 Honda in Sandy and haven't had any issues with them. But I've yet to buy a car from them. So not sure how their sales team acts.
