Yeah, OK, but smelling so bad even the garbage cans move out of the way is maybe too far in the other direction.

Those techniques work in North America, but not Europe. We will have to adapt for you. Perhaps a MAGA hat to start.
I too, suffer from people telling me a lot of stuff and many strangers approaching me to chat.

Cloudflare's shit itself, and taken half the internet with it, this morning. This is also affecting connectivity to AWS-provides services. And Discord, btw.
Well, now I know why my credit card website isn't loading.
I used to have that face. I even used to listen while they talked. Heck, there was one time I listened so hard I made some guy skip work for the afternoon while he rambled on about trying to be an actor (I think he had done a TV commercial) and other stuff. I still remember this guy, because his office Christmas party was that night, too.
Now, I just want to be left alone at the bar.
I'll tell your bartender she should stop bothering you.
Just so long as she keeps my coffee cup topped up, that works for me. I mean, I've already heard pretty much everything she might say. And on top of that, when it comes to the banal, pointless stuff like reality shows, she likes the Bachelor (I don't) and I like Big Brother (she don't).I'll tell your bartender she should stop bothering you.
I had to take Lyft to work today, and the driver was from Congo. He loves Trump. He talked about how amazing Trump is and how much he has helped the Congo. He literally said, "Trump is going to stop the Rocket Man in Korea from getting our Uranium."
Interesting conversation to say the least.

Well, I haven't gotten it yet, but my bank has my amounts in my "pending" deposits.
My paycheck hasn't changed. I guess I have to check the 3% because it was supposed to start this month. My bonus check is about $1000 more than I expected. Nice surprise.
My $100 bonus for my 10 year anniversary? After taxes comes to $55.55. So a 44.45% tax is okay, I guess...?

IRS says that bonuses can be taxed at a flat 25%, according to Intuit. But everywhere I've ever worked has just paid the maximum tax bracket on them.
...yes, we do.

I have the next week and a half off. I don't go back to work until the 9th. So of COURSE my internet starts to crawl to a grind. Now a technician is coming on Tuesday. I guess I have to put on pants that day.
(Oh, and by a crawl I mean I'm getting about 40-60 Mbps. Which is still what we used to have at the old place, but way, WAY worse than the 1000 Mbps we're supposed to be getting.)

Dudes all across S Asia wear sarongs/lungees. My FIL wears one at home. I haven't tried it, but it looks comfortable.

Shaving your legs is overrated.
Lungi and kilt really need to finally come into style. I love wearing more open clothing downstairs, especially when it's hot.
How hellish
