Love them. Saw them open for Dropkick in like 99.

And before you hear elsewhere, they broke up due to Buddha being a creep. But to the rest of the bands credit they kicked his ass to the curb. And have had nothing to do with him since. Rob Lind is really the driving force behind the band, so it isn’t a big loss either.

Also check out Ramallah too. It’s Rob’s other band. Same energy.

That’s why I stick with contoso and fabrikam.

I prefer the Limp Bizkit version - said no one ever

Y’know what, I can’t bring up my kids in a church whose authority system is based entirely on the size of fuckin’ hats, okay? That’s apparently how the Catholic church is run. The bigger the hat, the more important the guy, right?! Priests have no hats, Cardinals have those little red beanies, the Pope has a collection of big hats. God must have a huge fuckin’ sombrero up there in heaven, huh? “Look at me, I’m God! Look at the size of my hat, who else would I be?!” “I don’t know, lead singer of Los Lobos? I don’t know! You tell me!”

When I was cis, white, male, Christian, straight, and childless, I lived in Addison. Because that’s where the bars and women were at. Although I met my wife in Denton, so maybe I have no idea what I’m talking about.

But I see absolutely no reason to live in Richardson unless you work in Dallas and don’t want to commute above PGBT. And are willing to deal with shit infrastructure, crap schools, and southern Garland slowly leaking your way.

They had Richardson TX listed on there and mentioned how great their schools are. The top high school there is ranked #441 in Texas by US News. In Texas! As someone who moved from Texas to New England, I can safely say Texas schools are horrible.

Sweet girl. I bet you it felt good on her joints. And she honestly looks great for her age. She must have a loving family :)

Now I can’t unsee that

Welcome to my world. My son has been like this since he was old enough to crawl and figured out he could bypass the cabinet locks by yanking really hard on them. So we had to buy magnetic child locks for everything. I tried a U type lock between cabinet doors once and he figured out he could unscrew the damn knob. Fast forward to today where I have RFID locks on the cabinets in my office, and the only fobs for them are in my desk which has a biometric lock on it.

As others mentioned pen testing is huge. My son found a way to connect his Chromebook at school to every printer and started printing things all over campus. The IT department still hasn’t figured out how he was able to do it.

It certainly has kept me on my toes. It’s like a game of cat and mouse now. He breaks in, I improve the security and on and on. I’ve honestly thought about getting certified in alarm installation and starting a business with him.

Fun times!

I really wish a platform would come out with a “I like this song, but not so much that I want to hear it everyday, maybe play it once a month or so” button

I was disappointed to see Josh Robert Thompson again in the latest Wheel of the Worst episode, yet I still tried to watch it. Try being the word there. I didn’t make it to the 10 minute mark.

My wife went into labor with our second child and like 3 AM. I load our 4 year old and her into the car. A little while later Grandpa shows up and takes our son home. My wife gives birth to our daughter. I go back home that evening because Grandpa has to drive an hour back to his house to feed his horses.

Go to put my son to bed and his brown blanket that he has slept with every night is nowhere to be found. I knew he loved this blanket and knew this day would come, so I had a spare hidden in the house.

I march proudly in and hand him this blanket. He looks at it, looks at me, and says, “old brown blanket”. For context he is autistic and had a severe speech delay, so it was kind of shocking to hear him say that. I explain he can have it tomorrow and that this one will do for tonight.

I go to turn on his noise maker which he has slept with every night of his life and it won’t turn on. Turns out our cat picked that day to chew completely through the cord and then continue to munch on it making it unrepairable.

So in one day he got drug out of bed at 3 am, got a new sister, lost his brown blanket, and his noise maker wouldn’t work.

Luckily I had my box of cables and found one that worked with his noise maker. I was so excited when I ran up the stairs with his working noise maker.

He is 15 now, still has his brown blanket and still reminds me about the time I tried to give him “new brown blanket.” But not that his noise maker had a new cord.

You’ve got to expand on that

I definitely wouldn’t say it is selfish by any stretch of the imagination. But I can see how someone would get offended if you forgot theirs.

I’m horrible with names too. I’m just up front with people about it. If anyone gives me a hard time I tell them I’m face blind. That usually ends the discussion or them trying to give me tips.

I agree saying someone’s name over and over feels creepy. I know why they do it, but it comes off super unauthentic.

I’m fine with my own name, but I have a very common name that is always shortened. For some reason it makes me want to crawl out of my skin when someone says the shortened version with my last name.

I can’t say if it’s a common ADHD thing. But you can add one more ADHD (probably somewhere on the spectrum) person who is in agreement with you.

That’s wonderful advice. Luckily my mom will be back Tuesday to take it back over. The spray she left is a mixture of water and peroxide, she said to help prevent fungus. It’s been a bit of a learning experience for us both because she moved from Texas to New England. The summer was so humid she basically never had to water it. But of course as soon as she left winter hit and the air dried up. There is a good chance I’ve overwatered it. I’ll hold off on doing anything else until she gets back.

She already has one of those. Plus the dog sleeps in her room every night too. She loves everything

Thanks 😊 I think she’s ready to have her own plants now too

Yup it’s a Pothos
