Whine like a baby, now with 500% more drama!

[fade]

You know what sucks? Not being able to unclip your cleats from the bike pedal fast enough, and having that half a second before you fall over to think, "Well. This stinks." I now have the shape of my front sprocket cut into my calf.

 

[drifter]

Don't fall; problem solved!

Edit: ah hell, thought this was the Random Crap thread. Sorry fade, looks like that stings!

 

[fade]

Yeah, it was stupid. I tried to make a sharp turn, and there was a dude just sitting there on the trail with a baby carrier on his bike. I should've unclipped before I went into the turn.

I need some Dr. Scholls in my life. My feet hurt.

First over $2k paycheck of my career. And my hip, leg, feet and toes are screaming at me about it.

Y'know, you could post that pic and plausibly claim you were bitten by a shark. Sounds more badass than falling off a bike.

 

[PatrThom]

It would sound even more badass if he said he was riding his shark along the trail.

So I ordered a 6-pack of some premium instant ramen. Amazon says I can get it this week if I pay $40 for expedited shipping. Or wait a month or more with free shipping.

The reviews seem to hype it up well. Let me know if it lives up to the hype or not. A month is a looong wait for some noodles tho

Ramen by the Dharma Initiative.

This is anathema to me. Half the purpose of ramen is it's so goddamn cheap


You people are weird.

 

[Nebulous]

anathema.

Nice vocabulary, I had to look that one up to see what it means.

 

[Dave]

Wait. 6 packs of Ramen for $32? What the fuck? What will college kids eat when they run out of money?

Rice, beans, and oats.

Rice, beans, and oats.

I said college kids, not horses and goats.

Right, herds of horses and goats might have a net worth in the positive range.

Maybe some nice forage?

College students are like 10% of Ron Swanson's daily calorie intake. Their hopes and dreams are a great side item for his mid-afternoon rashers.

I read this as "fromage" at first. I thought you were making a joke about gubment cheese.

We got government cheese when I was a kid. Not gonna lie, I still like the stuff.

American ramen - the stuff I got at the store that comes 6 packs to a bundle and you can get 4 bundles for $5.00.

You're conflating Top Ramen with top shelf Ramen.

Our daughter has a cold and sore throat. Poor thing

And guess what I woke up with?

PS - I may need a ramen intervention after reading this thread.

Dammit, it's gonna be 98 again next week. I thought we were past this 90s shit, 2016.

You know this is normal, it's only September. October is the cool-down.

 

[Dei]

We're in the 70s now, and it actually feels cool. Which is weird.

 

[PatrThom]

Nights have been going to 53, here.
Yesssssssss...

The nice thing about Colorado summers is that no matter how hot it gets during the day, the temp always drops off pretty quick at night.

 

[Nebulous]

My back hurts and the highest setting on this heating pad seems to be broken. Medium is the most I can get.

Crap, I just started sweating with the mention of a heating pad. Tis still warm in my neck of the woods.

 

[Squidleybits]

I have another cold on top of everything else.

My mean cat Pud decided to sit on me while I was defenseless.

 

[PatrThom]

Pud is just filtering the air for you.

[ThatNickGuy]

I went to Word on the Street earlier today. It's a big festival for books, literacy, and local authors.

I shouldn't have gone.

It just further depressed me how I failed as a writer.

A pretty gross filter . I know where that end of him has been!
