Fellow NC friend! Greetings from Greensboro!

Probably the food. Fried chicken, biscuits and gravy, sweet tea. Hoo boy.

Rock was a favorite of mine. The nude beach episode really stuck out to me.

And his dog’s name was Spunky, ffs.

The Night House is a really good horror/thriller, I don’t recall it having any gore.

The Menu is phenomenal, but does have a bit of blood and gore.

I don’t think I saw anyone mention Get Out, a fantastic movie.

I’m not a big movie guy, but these were some of my faves (along with Evil Dead, which have been mentioned a ton already 🙂)

The menu one is specifically so restaurants don’t get sued when they accidentally serve you raw products or food you’re allergic to.

I suppose that makes us litigious, which is pretty weird and sad.

I’m currently on season 3 of Silicon Valley, and the first season of Initial D.

I’m loving Silicon Valley but boy Richard sure is incompetent sometimes huh? It’s so frustrating sometimes but man does Mike Judge know how to satirize that entire industry and culture.

Initial D is also really good. A friend got me to watch it. I’m not even a car guy but it’s making me want to play driving games.

I had nightmares from Dawn of the Dead for weeks. I was 8 or 9 when my mom tried to show it to me, lol

Supposedly my mother’s maternal grandfather (so, my great-grandfather) wrestled a bear. Also supposedly, there is a statue somewhere in West Virginia to celebrate this fact.

I’ve done some surface level searching online for this but haven’t found anything. Cool to think about, though!

What’s wrong with Wiccans? I know a few, they’re fine people.

Would you also reject your humanity?

The big incident at my previous job was the (extremely incompetent) HR person accidentally sharing a spreadsheet of every employee’s salary. I was an hourly worker at the time and thought it was funny, but some of the senior engineers were pissed to find out how much more other engineers made. HR was not fired, instead she was put on a temporary paid leave.

Other incidents include:

• One of the owners’ vape exploded, forcing everyone to evacuate.
• VP of the company got caught buying escort services on the company credit card.
• Aforementioned owner (who was no longer an owner after the company was bought out) got fired shortly after a town hall zoom meeting, where he used a Trump/Pence background.
• The head of the NOC team had a stroke at work.
• COO “accidentally” revealed in front of everyone that one of the Project Managers had cancer. She sued, and they settled.
• COO verbally abused one of the senior managers over the phone during a big meeting. He sued, and they settled.

It was a pretty shitty company.

I’m a simple chips enjoyer (or crisps if you’re a Britbong). Something salty to balance the sweet jelly. I usually eat crunchy peanut butter, so it’s already a little savory.

For me, the bread is part of the experience of the PB&J. You have piqued my interest, though. How do you prepare this PB&J burrito?

I don’t have friends.

I’m not trying to be mean when I say this: you ought to consider making friends before attempting an intimate relationship.

Not sure if anyone has said this, but hold your breath and swallow three times. The last one can be a little tough, but it has worked for me I’d say 90% of the time.

Heyo, me too! I tried as a kid and busted my knee when I fell off, and gave it up.

I did this to my dad when he handed me his new phone to mess around with while he cooked. I took probably 30 selfies and he ended up printing a few and hanging them up on the wall at my parents’ house. So we both got a good laugh :)

Great write up, and I’m glad you were able to recover most of your servers after this incident.

I was a Crocs hater for the longest time. Finally I needed some new shoes for doing tasks outside (gardening, etc) and on a whim got some Crocs. They’re pretty comfy and very convenient to slip on real fast to go outside.
