So my lovely wife told Alexa to play Happy Birthday in the kitchen while I was getting coffee. Since she wasn't there, she missed the fact that Alexa played this, an obscenity-laced rant about how this dude wishes this baby had never been born. 
So if you want to watch a guy curse out a baby for five minutes, here's your chance. (In the guy's defense, I don't know anything about the baby. Kid could be a real jerk for all I know.)

Hah, I knew it'd be Joyner Lucas before the video even loaded.So my lovely wife told Alexa to play Happy Birthday in the kitchen while I was getting coffee.

Yeah I don't know what that baby's problem was.So my lovely wife told Alexa to play Happy Birthday in the kitchen while I was getting coffee. Since she wasn't there, she missed the fact that Alexa played this, an obscenity-laced rant about how this dude wishes this baby had never been born.
I had to go to the bank to deposit a check and there was a sign in there encouraging people to buy a house by showing how much you'd save vs renting. A reasonable idea, but the first line of their chart was showing your savings if your current monthly rent was $2500, and it only went up.
I know there are more expensive cities, but over here $2500 a month gets you a massive luxury apartment in the most desired part of town. I'm in a decently popular area in a relatively nice 2 bedroom for $975 (total). I dont think I could find an apartment for $8500 (the max value on the sheet) in the city if I tried.

Ha! And $2500/month around here gets you a small (700-900 sq. feet) two bedroom house. If you hop over to SF, that same amount gets you a spot in a two bedroom apartment with a roommate.

I e-mailed to follow up on the interview I did for that job with the city 2 weeks ago. They replied they've got a couple more interviews to do, then they'll make a decision.
I'm hoping they interpret this as "nice, he's interested and enthusiastic about wanting the job" and not "boy this annoying guy's giving me a rash, desperate much?"

One email after two weeks does not come across as obnoxious and desperate.
Speaking out of my poorly-informed ass here, but I think doing one follow-up after a few days is seen as acceptable (or even expected) in all hiring situations. It's that second e-mail or call that gets you weird looks.
Well, $2500 is just about our rent for a 1200sq ft, 3 bed, 2.5 bath townhouse.
Government hiring often takes a long time. I wouldn't say there's anything to be worried about here.

You misspelled "Role Model"
"Which sign am I supposed to send to the Buffalo branch?"
"The one labeled New York, obviously."
We need a picture of Ron Swanson as an Ewok now.
But the bank is based out of Buffalo! We should come first!
In other randomness: back in my cheap/lazy/unhealthy days I would make this concoction of spaghetti mixed with paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, chili powder, soy sauce, and sriracha. It was absolutely disgusting but delicious. I haven't had it in well over a year.
But my god I'm craving it right now and have no way to alleviate it
Is the dish itself a no-go, or just the noodles? You could try something like shirataki noodles or spaghetti squash if your worry is along the calorie or carb line.But the bank is based out of Buffalo! We should come first!

Something something behind even the Jets!
The choking hazard one, obviously.

I posted in the wrong thread, moved it to funny pics.
It's really more that I literally can't make it this second due to being at work. I stopped eating it in general due to the health parts. I just don't know what brought on this sudden craving for it.
