There are cheap, easily removable and attachable bidets you can get and install on any toilet. Takes literally 15 minutes and a crescent wrench, if it doesn’t come with a little tool.

There’s actually a single gaming CEO that hasn’t been born yet, bringing the average down.

You haven’t seen the latest chatGPT update?

A while back, I was a big fan of the lemonade flavored Trulys (alcoholic seltzer). I started stacking empty cans on my desk, letting them accumulate for a couple days, until eventually the desk would get bumped and the tower would fall.

After a while, I started hot gluing the cans together.

Long story short, I have a five layer pyramid of lemonade Trulys atop the shelving unit in the front room. I forget it’s there, but people usually ask about it within the first 15 minutes of coming over for the first time.

Hey, someone got it

First thing to do is open the door.

Yup. And nobody but their customers will buy (since it’s $150 for a $100 card) so they don’t have to worry about buying a card to send a real customer to look legit.

Played the game last year, survival with a few mods, namely a huge modern gun pack, a ghoul mod and some super mutant mods.

EVERYTHING was terrifying. Walking through a city, if a hostile NPC noticed me before me them, a single headshot from a long rifle would drop me with full health.

Very late to this. But! If anyone tries to call you on having the same last name and address, depending on the service, you might get away with saying you got a divorce, and whoever was on the old account has moved out 😅

If you’re into heavier stuff, Christian metal is generally really fucking good.

As is the theme of the thread, a lot of these bands don’t consider themselves “Christian bands”, but hey.

August Burns Red - pretty popular, their music has a wide variety of influences in terms of sound but every album but their very first is very solid and consistent imo. Their drums and breakdowns kick ass; listen to “Defender” and “Bloodletter”.

Devil Wears Prada - also relatively popular, their style changed a little bit in the more recent years but there are songs on almost every album of theirs that I enjoy. “Sassafras” is a good older song, “Salt” is a good new one.

Silent Planet - probably the most thought out and intentional lyrics you’ll find in metal. A majority of their songs include footnotes to every line, indicating what historical event, biblical passage, or other artist’s work they’re referencing. “Panic Room” and “Northern Fires” are great examples of their sound and message.

having your body suddenly stop giving you a hall pass.

Great way to put it. I’m close to OPs age, and while I won’t say I’m “falling apart” to the extent they are, things definitely are starting to have consequences. Sleep deprivation was the most shocking; used to be able to get 4-6 hours of sleep for several consecutive days of activity, then sleep on over the weekend and be completely fine. Now, if I get less than 7, chances are pretty good that I’m not gonna have a great day tomorrow.

Oh, easy, that’s:

I’m still running my 1080 (non-TI), I’ve wanted to upgrade since the 30x0 series but couldn’t justify the cost… Definitely not gonna get any better.

Tech debt

I’ve never heard this term before. It makes perfect sense for what it represents. Sorry it sounds like you speak from experience 😅

Touch it, feel it, try those pants.

I really wish I could have. I never buy clothes that I haven’t already tried on, but I needed something specific for work, and as you’ve already guessed, the line of pants I settled on aren’t listed at any of their local-to-me retailers.

Though, full transparency, I took it a step further to make things worse by ordering the correct size through Amazon, since they’ll come in tomorrow rather than a week from now…

Yeah, I really should’ve been more adamant about it. I was on my break at work and didn’t want to spend the whole time on the phone. I probably could’ve got a manager to cancel it or something. Probably still can. Oh well.

Carhartt.

As soon as I read “Chewy” I knew it was going to be a much more reasonable response. Sorry you had to go through that little reminder, though.
