ShadySands Posted December 23, 2016 Posted December 23, 2016 Happy Festivus! I made tamales and chitlins then gave my dogs a bath and took care of my sick wife. I also cleaned up a bit since no cleaning lady this week Free games updated 3/4/21
Azdeus Posted December 23, 2016 Posted December 23, 2016 After spending 3 hours on the phone with different agencies and services, it turns out my ****ing boss has'nt told the social security agency that I've been sick. Mother****ing ****sucking little ****, I'm going to pressurecook his balls while they're still attached to him and then force feed them to him. Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

ShadySands Posted December 23, 2016 Posted December 23, 2016 For my first feat of strength I will make 2 more batches of tamales Free games updated 3/4/21
Gfted1 Posted December 23, 2016 Posted December 23, 2016 I got all my wifes presents wrapped and under the tree today while she was at work. I feel like I did good this year being more creative with her gifts, and I paid for everything I could in cash so I didnt leave an electronic trail for her to follow in our banking app. 4 "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Hiro Protagonist Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 Downloaded and converted a lot of music (videos) to MP3s and had it on a USB stick plugged in my car. Driving along and a whole heap of Bad Lip Reading songs were playing and I had a big grin on my face listening to the lyrics. After a few songs, my girlfriend said, these songs are pretty good, they're happy songs. I asked if she was listening to the words and she was like, no, but the music is good. 1
Hurlshort Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 I need to come up with a decent logo for my History of Hops podcast so I can make business cards. I'm thinking about an open book with a hop vine around it, or something. Or maybe a tap pouring knowledge, although that may be out of me abilities as an artist. Actually I have no abilities as an artist. Hrm.
PK htiw klaw eriF Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 I drank rum and took a nap. I need to come up with a decent logo for my History of Hops podcast so I can make business cards. I'm thinking about an open book with a hop vine around it, or something. Or maybe a tap pouring knowledge, although that may be out of me abilities as an artist. Actually I have no abilities as an artist. Hrm.

Gfted1 Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Whiling away my time off, I went and got a haircut, then some breakfast and coffee. I should buy a boat. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Hurlshort Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 My backyard was getting pretty overgrown, so the neighbor brought over a couple goats. They are fun to watch. The dog is having a blast trying to live out his herding fantasies, although he has learned to keep his distance from the one with horns. 1
Malcador Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Sister got me a Rogue One coffee mug that changes the design when it's heated. Turns out it cracked when hot water was put into it. I guess there was a hidden flaw in it. 7 Why has elegance found so little following?

Tale Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 Started getting a cold on Monday. So had a couple of nights of fever dreams. These are kind of fun, for certain values of fun. First night I couldn't even form coherent thoughts as I tried to sleep. No words, just pictures that could be best described as what a fly would see if half its eyes wandered. Last night was a bit better. I had a fantastic dream were I was some sort of world renowned AI researcher that people wanted to get back into the business, but I completely refused, trying to tell them to do it themselves. Somehow this lead to a Starcraft teams tournament, where I had the absolutely brilliant idea of rushing the enemy with a swarm of weak enemies. I felt this was very clever. Though apparently in my dream, matches start with all your units already built, so the opposing team blew themselves up killing my units. At this point I started to panic because I was sure this was against the rules. However, all the audience does is complain about that's why Blizzard doesn't allow large maps and some debate over Bryce Dallas Howard's acting ability. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Blarghagh Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 You must have recently read that thing about Blizzard using the SC2 engine for AI research. Not sure why Bryce Dallas Howard was in it though, but there's worse people to have show up in your dreams. 1
BruceVC Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 Even though I cancelled my leave for December its been fun and interesting staying in JHB this week. I work a few hours each day but then I can do my own thing in the afternoon. Today I have been at Hooters which is always festive, shooters and chickens wings were rife And I still get to take this time off as leave later "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Gfted1 Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 Vacation journal, day 6: I feel myself going quite mad from the boredom...sights and sounds just on the edge of my perception.

Guard Dog Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 I'm going to turn the soil in the garden today. There is nothing growing there now. It's just waiting for spring. I have a project in mind this year that requires planting corn. So at least half the field is being dedicated to corn this spring.

Since that kind of thing is frowned upon by the government of our supposedly "free" country I can neither confirm nor deny my project might involve the distillation of spirits. I will say, for the benefit of any government agency who monitors this board, that no product of my family farm will ever be sold for cash considerations other than vegetables. 4 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell
