I can order "pasta" and my bartender knows my whole order.[DOUBLEPOST=1490216084,1490215937][/DOUBLEPOST]When the lady on the other end of the speaker at the Sonic drive-thru can guess your order, Maybe one should admit if they are in a bit of a rut.
I know everything's thinking Smashing Pumpkins, but what leaps into my brain is Soul Asylum.
If romcoms have taught me anything, maybe one of you should be asking the other out on a date.When the lady on the other end of the speaker at the Sonic drive-thru can guess your order, Maybe one should admit if they are in a bit of a rut.
I'm thinking about that month I left a live trap set up in our backyard. Caught two squirrels and a 'possum. An unhappy opossum is a scary opossum.I know everything's thinking Smashing Pumpkins, but what leaps into my brain is Soul Asylum.

Hi all
... You used to be somebody else, didn't you.
Lasik was the best thing I ever did for myself (that cost money, at least). I love not needing glasses any more.I'm going to look into LASIK (or other random eye thing) because we have a bunch of money in our HSA right now and I pointed out to my husband that even with VSP I pay $350 for new glasses because of the need to go for the super thin lenses, so in the long run it'll probably save us money. First step is seeing if I even can though. My eye doctor encouraged it, since my vision is so bad that if I lose my glasses I'm screwed.
Annnd that rules me out. Almost all my driving is at night.That said, everything people say about what it does to your night vision is true. I really, really don't like driving at night anymore. It gets less pronounced as the years go by, but it's been like 10 years for me and it's still noticeable.
You can still do it, you just... gotta be extra careful, especially the first year or so. And also it's kind of unpleasant. Oncoming headlights kinda do a kaleidoscope effect in your eyes for a couple years, and your ability to see in really dark dark gets decreased by a lot. At least, that's what happened for me.Annnd that rules me out. Almost all my driving is at night.
aside from aforementioned oncoming kaleidoscopes, the world pretty much ceased to exist outside my headlights unless the moon was full, high, and unobscured.
I get that too. Without the lasikI already don't drive at night unless I have no choice because I get horrific glare at night. So nothing is going to change there. I already get cinema style lens flare off every light as well. So I'm not super worried about that. Most of the drawbacks already exist to me in one degree or another.
Knowing what I know now about its drawbacks, I'd still do it in a heartbeat. It is SO worth it.Probably the #1 reason I don't fiddle with my eyes. That and my prescription is under 2 diopter, so it's not all that strong anyway.
Got my first haircut since last July. I feel like a sheared sheep. The barber also trimmed my beard.
Feels weird but looks good.
That is also on the heels of the Youtube Restricted Mode blocking any and all LGBTQ+ content, including just Youtubers who happen to be LGBTQ+. They claim that was accidental and are going to fix it.Youtube got a bit of a bloody nose in the last few days, in the form of another lesson on why most companies that rely on advertising have an actual human sales force instead of an unsupervised algorithm, as advertisers bolted for the door when they realized their ads were being run wherever/whenever, including on videos advocating homophobia/antisemitism.
I mean, my Space Engineers videos still pull in 12 bucks a month off advertisers I'd be willing to bet have never even heard of Space Engineers, so maybe this will affect me, too, but I'm seeing echoes of the "durr obviously" situation that aborted Google's short and ill-advised foray into radio advertising 10 years ago.
Someone claimed they got flagged just for having the Gay Pride flag in the shot.That is also on the heels of the Youtube Restricted Mode blocking any and all LGBTQ+ content, including just Youtubers who happen to be LGBTQ+. They claim that was accidental and are going to fix it.
It's really just been Youtube fucking up everywhere this week.
A hand-drawn one on some notebook paper, at that.Someone claimed they got flagged just for having the Gay Pride flag in the shot.
That's Misanthropy thread material if ever there was.
This WILL be a movie at some point.British reality TV show cast left on island to fend for themselves for a year, at the end of which they find out the show was cancelled after episode 4, some seven months prior.
Well they signed a one year contract...British reality TV show cast left on island to fend for themselves for a year, at the end of which they find out the show was cancelled after episode 4, some seven months prior.
So long as they got paid for it, I don't see there being any kind of legal problem, but it'd still be a sucky "by the way" to come home to, eh?Well they signed a one year contract...
