I say “fucking hell” a lot

My uncle has one of the best avocado trees I’ve ever seen in his backyard. It produces all year long, and they’re big and delicious. He ends up throwing most of them away every year, amounting to a couple dozen pounds at least, because he refuses to learn how to tell when an avocado is ripe. He’ll cut a rock hard avocado open, then let it rot in the fridge until his wife finally throws it in the trash. Guy’s had that tree for at least twenty years now, and he still trashes most of them because he doesn’t know hard means unripe.

I live rent free in people’s heads. Lol

I remember this was like the third grade, maybe. We went on a field trip. Dude in class name was Surfing (not his real name). He liked to eat. He also didn’t believe in tissues or something because he was always sucking snot up his nose. So we go on the trip and we begin with lunch because I guess it was lunch time or maybe they wanted to get it over with so we could all have fun. Surfing brought a whole foot and half sub and a big bag of Doritos* and a whole gallon of Gatorade. Everyone was done and he was still eating. We had to hurry him along because the scene would have turned into a disaster if 29 kids couldn’t get on with the trip because the one kid wouldn’t stop eating. If he could I bet he would have spent the entire day eating.

*By the way, Bravos were a thousand times better than Doritos. That’s a fact. Anyone who disagrees is wrong.

We had Italian ice in NJ years ago. I don’t think they sell it in many other states. They’ve got other similar though distinct products (Italian ice and water ice are totally different, you can tell).

It comes in different flavors. My favorite was blue. It didn’t taste like anything real, it tasted like the color blue. Nothing else has ever tasted like that.

Red is cherry, white is lemon, and there are other colors that taste like different fruits. Blue is just blue. It’s not blueberry, it’s not anything, it’s just its own unique thing.

‪I member when “The Con” came out (Tegan and Sara album). They had a Youtube series of behind the scenes videos.

I did my hair like them at that time, but it doesn’t want to stay straight at that length so I just grew it longer after a while.

Those were better times.

Did they happen to look like this?

When I was in first grade, my school decided that the bus stop for my neighborhood would be the front lawn of a house about three blocks from where I lived. This particular house was the hang-out spot for a group of middle-aged guys who would sit on lawn chairs drinking six packs and staring at us. They were there morning and afternoon, for pick-up and drop off. It took almost a semester for all the parents’ complaints to get the school district to change the bus stop location.

In your personal life? You don’t say it a lot here. Besides what you just said, you’ve only said it once this month.

I use the word “ass” a lot, apparently.

The longest I’ve listened to a single song on repeat was 6 hours. It was “Echelon” by Thirty Seconds to Mars.

Dorsey was worse in his final years as admin of Twitter the way I see it. moderation was worse, colluded with the DHS, and let CP run rampant.

It’s like Twitter, only it’s not agro and edgy and shitface Musk isn’t there deliberately enshittifying the experience to make money.

I’m a human.

I used to live next to a crack shack. The same police officers would show up every week to buy illegal drugs from a rather nice man who had questionable visitors who played loud music from their hoopties at all crazy hours of the night. This went on for several years. The same people would show up at the same time every day to buy drugs in the middle of the street in broad daylight like it was just something to do. At least 10 people lived in the house. The police knew, they didn’t care, and a few years ago the guy moved out with his entire extended “family”. It’s quiet now.

Got a new pillow. Probably going to move the head pillow to the back and throw the back pillow out eventually. Walmart used to sell great pillows with stripes, then they stopped. Hopefully this one is good enough.

@ANoobis
Thank you. I had assumed they were allowed nationwide.
Which apparently is mostly true.

@Twiface
Several.

For Congress, I did a write-in for the Constitution Party’s candidate from the last election because this year is a rerun of ‘bitchy cat lady vs. sleazy perennial candidate.’

@UrbanMysticDee
Is there a single state that doesn’t allow write-ins?

I will vote for the Goddamn Batman because NJ allows write-in votes.

I will vote 3rd party.

I will vote Kamala

@UrbanMysticDee
Same. It’s a stupid trend.

I very strongly dislike how people have to put salt and almonds in everything. It started with chocolate. “Now with sea salt” (sea salt is the same as regular salt, it’s just made by evaporating salt water instead of waiting for nature to evaporate salt water and then bury it in the ground to form a mine after millions of years. It’s the same sodium chloride. Don’t lie to me that you can taste a difference, you’re full of shit.). I don’t want salt in my chocolate. And of course people put almonds in chocolate. Whole giant huge hard as stone almonds that break your teeth when you try to eat them, because I guess having solid chocolate all he way through costs more money so they add adulterants to it to take up space. Then they started adding it to other shit. “Caramel with sea salt!” “Coffee with sea salt!” For all the people saying salt will kill you they sure like to put salt in fucking everything so they can jack up the price. Many times I was going to buy something but had to put it back because it either had salt or almonds or both.

Every winter everyone starts wearing all black like I do all year round. My culture isn’t a costume.
