I'm running solo with the kids and the cats for two weeks.

This is going to be a shit show....

Ahh... the secret to my youthful looks. I have the heart of a 14 year old boy, on my desk.

I cleaned the cat poop before I left.

Yeah, so my companion on the plane was Eriol sized.

Lucky for you there's no body organ removal offender list, so your neighbors need never know.

No, that's when something that you expect has been taken care of, turns out not to have been taken care of.

Well, after preparing stuff for my volunteer meeting off and on all week, my printer ran out of ink ten minutes before I had to leave so I had nothing to hand out for any of the things that I was meant to discuss

I wanted to show up and look incredibly well prepared, because I am....and I looked like a train wreck. It was brutal. I could feel my face burning. Bleh.[DOUBLEPOST=1505707831,1505707781][/DOUBLEPOST]It was so bad that I had to stop for shame ice cream on the way home.

Oh no! The thirty-second flavor!

I put a lot of effort into my work so I was really upset that something as minor as running out of ink when it was too late to do anything about it caused me to look unprofessional. It threw me off and I got frazzled and I ended up not only being unable to print what I wanted to, but forgetting a bunch of the things I had printed and prepared earlier in the week

I also spilled Bits and Bites all over a bunch of my art supplies. Hot mess express!!

It makes me kind of chuckle that addressing somebody as "my dude" has apparently made a comeback with the youth.

That's part of why it makes me chuckle, of course. Other than just the whole "calling people dude again for the first time in 30 years" thing.

Yeah, but there's a difference between what us old farts do and what the kids are doing these days.

Lol the art instructor last week had no idea that Cheers was a TV show.

It has only been off the air for ~~14 years~~... 24 YEARS!!!!

But how can somebody miss 20 years of Nick @ Night?

No cable TV?
(Seriously, I didn't get cable TV until I was in my 20's)

Also there are plenty of people who don't stay up that late. (I am not one of those people, but I'm sure they exist)

GasBandit · Sep 18, 2017

I watched a lot of nick at night as a kid, but I never saw Cheers on it... most of what I remember is, y'know... Get Smart, Dobie Gillis, Patty Duke, etc.

Hmmm, why is this that way? Guess I'll ask Google.

Oh hey, naturally there's a relevant SO answer... Answered by @stienman, because of course.

Dave · Sep 18, 2017

There was a shooting about a block from my house. Right now there are cops everywhere and we have 0 information. So I guess I watch the news and wait and see. It's like when we were in the projects all over again...

Who do you think contains more blood, an anime character or someone from the Evil Dead universe?

Well, anime characters don't contain blood, they just draw it from hammerspace as needed, whether it be a trickle or a 10,000 gallon per minute torrent.

The police/DA just solved a 25 year old cold case murder in my town. DNA, confession, the whole deal. The worst crime ever committed in my town will finally see the guilty party put on trial.

Yeah, I had that experience on SO. "Wait. This...this is steinman. 7 billion people, and the one who answers my question is someone I know. Weird."

Hey @Bubble181 are we sure the racist chant about Romelu Lukaku is inspired by his skin colour & not him being Belgian?

One of my favorite Thomas Hardy bits:

I liked it so much I did an SATB arrangement of it in college (sheet music available on request).
