What does “Off My Chest” mean? Apparently whatever.

Yeah, “car key” is just the fob thing for the push start and this engraved metal store that says “We Love You” in my daugthter’s handwriting, which is the only reason it’s on there. I can’t stand big kets and my wife is the most egregious offender.

I recently just discovered that Subaru lets you do some kind of code thing with the button that opens the trunk, so you can just leave your key in the car if you go for a run or hiking or something.

I never lock my house, but there’s also generally someone home or I’m only out for a couple minutes.

Yeah, but I have to go to work, you know?

So time to spin the wheel!

Yeah, Boston is chaos and it is super easy to get lost. And you’ll have two roads converging and splitting and you gotta just hope you’re in the right place!

Yeah, I wake up, morning routine, run, shower, work, small lunch, nap, wake up, afternoon routine, and if I have a night job I shower again. But the exercise really dictates. If I don’t run in the morning I probably save the shower until sometime around 5pm.

This exact same obvious joke also came to my mind. Obviously not so obvious.

Maybe they should hire another person. Your problem shouldn’t be with this dude who’s doing this thing that literally creates a new generation.

And you should get a legit amount of vacation, but paternity leave also isn’t vacation.

But he also needs to stop having his kids during busy season, come on guy.

Religion can be fine. It is and always has been the idiots who ruin shit, just like with everything. I have churches around me that help the community, are open to all sorts of people. So the leader of one of the largest churches finally doing what he can to denounce nonsense is a step in the right direction for sure.

Unfortunately, the idiots will most certainly be heard.

And that all sounds absolutely reasonable. I’m just having a very different experience on Lemmy, and that’s the main reason why I found it odd, so appreciate your clarification.

And this is not to say I haven’t stumbled upon some shitheads, it’s just the frequency is low enough to be not so noticeable, not something I really put effort into addressing. If it were higher for me, I’m sure I’d find myself doing the same thing you are.

I’m curious what your threshold for blocking is. I don’t block anyone. I appreciate dissenting opinions. I can totally appreciate that there are bad actors out here, but a blocklist of 300+ sound like a curated echo chamber.

Feel free to block me.

I flew out of EWR on Friday and my flight left (the gate) on time. Now, we took off 30m late because of the traffic at our final destination, but security was 10m and we were on the plane on time. It was incredible. The longest wait was to get the kids some chicken fingers, that was like 30m.

If you mean, like, stuff made from fresh ingredients at the grocery store, I’ll agree, it’s the same stuff that you’d end up making. If it’s containerized, there’s the whole addition of ingredients for the sake of preservation, and some of that might be worth avoiding.

And so all things equal in the meal, just cost. Buying potato salad is probably more expensive than buying it’s parts, although then it’s probably not more expensive than starting new versus always having mayo in the fridge, that kinda thing.

I love potatoes but I honestly don’t love potato salad.

I have a neighbor who’s four years older than me, but the rift between 1983 and 1987, technology, seems insurmountable, it’s insane.

No, it’s that thong th-thong thong thong guy.

I live in Jersey and based on what you’ve written we have similar laws regarding guns, and you’re not going to believe this, but we consistently end up as one of the states with the least gun-related crimes. It must just be some crazy coincidence.

Who would win in a wrestling match, Lemmy or God?

Yeah, my peppers got too much calcium and had black ends. Cucumbers got too yellow. Cabbage worked fine, but I fucking hate cabbage. Beans were seriously lacking. Shit certainly isn’t easy, and it’s way to easy to think, hey, I can do this no problem!

Should we all pretend we’re starting at the same place or should it be explicit?

And yes, this post is nonsense. There’s no three dudes in a Starbucks discussing strategy or whatever this is. But would it be better that we all labor under false assumptions, or should we have someone be like, hey, this is the baseline, let’s go from here?

Lemmy’s opinion is obviously “Linux or bust!”

I played lacrosse in middle school, and when we’d stop we’d try taking the caps from our Gatorades and rolling them on the windshield of cars next to us.

I can’t stand littering now, I do town cleanups, and maybe it’s my way of trying to undo my stupidity.

They’re still shit. I bring my young kids to the park and around 430 the 12-15 year old kids roll in and are an absolute menace, like clockwork. Littering, cursing loudly, riding their bikes in between the play equipment.

I think there’s a certain age where shitheads will always be shitheads. They get this little taste of freedom that comes with adolescence and they go overboard. I think it is just a part of life.

I try to say to my kids, hey, you don’t like how they’re acting now right? Then don’t do it when you’re their age. We will see if that works.
