Man, all this Transformers nonsense has reminded me of seeing the best Cybertronian/Canadian cover band ever. This was the most fun I've ever had at a smaller venue show. I think they could easily cover Heart songs too since Arcee belts out stuff in that smokey husky Anne Wilson manner that fucking rules. She can belt out Immigrant Song with the best of them.
They hung out afterwards and drank at the bar in full costume and character. The best.
The most Canadian shit ever.

My cat is turning in to a whiny attention whore, mostly because of my husband. If kitty doesn't get attention on his terms (aka, he only wants pets and play in "his space," and heaven forbid someone isn't in the room with him if he's napping), he will start meowing non stop until someone complies. I've been trying to ignore his nonsense until he's willing to come to where I am, but my husband will swoop in to save the cat and then complain that I need to pay attention to the cat so he can get work done. Everytime he says this, I tell him to shut his door and ignore the cat, but it doesn't last.
This is extra annoying today, because said cat usually afternoon naps on the washing machine behind my husband, and it's been in use all day and cat hates the noise it makes.

Some ass signed me up for Brietbart Newsletter, on my damned work email address. And Outlook does not seem to want to block the damned address.

Make a rule in the rule wizard that checks for that sender and moves it immediately to the trash.
Or better yet, create folder for it, create a rule to send it to that folder, then delete the folder. That way they don’t clutter up your deleted items.

I clicked on this expecting it to be a joke video, but it turned out to be serious, and mildly interesting.
Why you waste my snack?
My dog's snore is so deep and loud I thought a neighbor had too many subwoofers and a loose trunk lid on their car outside.
Hobo made fun of my feet!
Silly hobo.

That means drinking and hilarity at jackbox night

Oh William Shattner, just shut the fuck up and accept that "cis" is not a slur. Let the issue go. Put down the Twitter and walk away.
I mean, that's just good advice in general.
No kidding. So many need to do that.
Myself included. I joined just to blast Old Navy twice.
Their in store associate suggested I do it via Instagram, but Twitter was as far as I could go

Yes, and so is the “Thanksgiving dinner-flavored” candy corn.

Gimme.
I... I kinda wanna try that Ding Dong Latte...
They're REAL.
I beg to differ. Firstly, it depends on the flavoring. Adding chocolate to an iced drink and calling it Ding Dong flavored, yes. But if they create a drink that tastes like that cheap chocolate with a hint of whatevers in that sickeningly-sweet filling,Vanilla, chocolate, cinnamon, and coconut.

As someone who hates the texture if marshmallows in her drinks or cereal, same goes for your Swiss Miss example. The overly-sweet idea of mixing Froot Loops and Frosted Flakes has the same effect. (FF only I can handle, FL are too much sweet). And watching David Willis make a batch of the Cheetos mac, the artificial color alone was

But they already make Swiss Miss with dehydrated marshmallows in it. Even though you think it's gross, it's not some new revelation of gross.

So the CFO was going around distributing our expense checks today, and he handed me mine and kept walking. I took a quick glance down at it, then did a double take with my eyes bulging out.
"Uh, I think there's a mistake here."
"What is it?" he replies slightly testily, probably expecting me to tell him it's too low.
"I'm fairly certain I did not submit over $50,000 in expenses last month."
I gotta admit, there was a fraction of a second that I was tempted to deposit it. It was signed and everything.
Turns out he accidentally typed an account number where the amount should have been.

I'm well aware. But when you're holding a $50,000 check in your hand, made out to you, and signed, if you don't have 0.2 seconds of temptation, you're not human.
