Thank God I don't give a fuck about things like relationship anniversary. Because that's a whole lot of dates to keep track of.

Immigration services get really antsy if you don't know all the arbitrary relationship boundary dates by heart (along with all the weird details of daily life that normal people bother to mentally catalogue but I mostly ignore).

The only reason I remember our relationship anniversary is because it was also my parents' wedding anniversary. I..might have forgotten our actual wedding anniversary once or twice.

@Squidleybits "Do you know what today is?"

@HCGLNS "Hmmmm, based on the sun, position of the moon, current weather and wildlife patterns, I'd say the first week of May."

@Squidleybits "Your mother's birthday dumbass. "

I read @Squidleybits' lines in Red Foreman's voice. I'm not sorry.

Simfers · May 3, 2016

Why ever would you be? We all read it that way.

General manager gave me a $25 gift card to Ozona, just cuz. So I got that going for me. Which is nice.

Whoops! I'm on my phone. I must have hit it as I was scrolling up.
I do believe I made a post that if you ever see a weird rating from me, that's probably why.

I wouldn't have said no if the provincial lottery had wanted to give me a push present

but yes, it's a bit much.

Ozona Grill and Bar!

Our Story:

Named after the unincorporated small West Texas town, Ozona Grill & Bar has an award-winning patio that has become a home away from home in Dallas. Saturday and Sunday, enjoy brunch and the Build-Your-Own Bloody Mary. Year after year Ozonacontinues to offer a comfortable atmosphere along with a diverse menu of homemade food, and a large selection of drinks; Ozona fulfills everyone’s burning desire for a good ol’ time.

Yeah, I thought it might be odd that you'd have strong feelings about a patio restaurant with only 2 locations, both in Texas.

I'm unfamiliar with the term "push present". Quid?

Sparhawk · May 4, 2016

TIL - Push Present

I mean, I literally have taken one of your wimminz, alongside several jobs :problemo:

I'm also still in legal limbo because it turns out that the 1.5k you pay the U.S. govt for your green card's processing doesn't entitle you to closure within a year :rolleyes:

Officer_Charon · May 6, 2016

Sergeant fussed at me for coming in right before roll call, which I do because fuck hanging around here if I don't have to.

Why is this a minor victory? "I need you to start coming in about half an hour earlier every day."

Still not seeing the win here?

"I'm going to be working with you on doing supervisory paperwork. I want you to be ready to take the Sergeant's exam."

!!!

DarkAudit · May 6, 2016

!!! indeed.

Officer_Charon · May 6, 2016

In the interest of full disclosure, it's going to be a while before I can be a Sergeant... hell, I'm not gonna be eligible for Corporal for another couple of months (have to wait for some disciplinary action to fall off), but they only set this up for senior officers that they feel are gonna be worth having on for a while.

So, yeah... I'm happy about that.

Can we call you Sarge?

Not for a while, at least.

"Sarge_Charon" does have a nice ring to it, though. :thumbsup:

Does the department need a new scapegoat? Is the last one all used up?

fade · May 6, 2016

Only thing I know about being a cop is that you don't go on a big bust 2 days before retirement.

Haha big bust

Last week, HBO got Suddenlink (my cable company) to suspend my internet access on my "first strike" under the DMCA for torrenting that week's episode of Game of Thrones.

This week, I got a seedbox.

Guess who's now seeding EVERY FUCKING TORRENT OF GAME OF THRONES I CAN FIND, MOTHER FUCKERS. ALL YOU DID WAS AWAKEN A SLEEPING GIANT AND FILL HIM WITH A TERRIBLE RESOLVE. EAT SHIT AND DIE. HAAAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA.
