Pit Viper glasses. Gas station boner pills to wear on your face.

I’m fingerprint banned from reddit now. I worked tooth and nail making thousands of frivolous reports via browser after the API thing. If I’m not mistaken mods used 3rd party apps to help with moderation. I figured I’d make being king of shit mountain a little more of a headache since those tools were out too.

I’ll peek in on reddit every once in a while. I clearly don’t have an account there so the front page garbage is what shows up. It feels like the internet version of walking down a coast with a beached whale carcass rotting on it. Once majestic, the bloated carrion now serves as a feeding ground for vultures and bottom feeders. The smell is awful. The beach volleyball area is clearly full of bots who have no sense of smell. The beachgoers there for a day at the beach either don’t realize or don’t care that their beach is littered with poop all over in the sand.

Start asking for bills then. No point in asking for dimes or nickels.

Does anyone else remember the zero-player game Progress Quest?

I drink as much water as I can handle at work so I can go take a leak and have my phone out and not risk getting in trouble with the boss. I don’t eat breakfast or lunch. Since starting work 3 months ago I lost 30lbs. I’ll eat anything for dinner and I haven’t been trying to lose any weight.

I will add that moving to first shift after over a decade of second shift has been hard on my system and I’ve vomited in the mornings before work more often than not. It’s like clockwork. I have learned that I’ve got a window of about 4 hours after work during which I can eat. Sticking to that keeps morning nausea at bay thanks to an empty stomach in the morning.

Anyways water is great. The other guy at work brings cases of bottled water which I try to understand. The water quality here is quite good and a majority of my water at work comes out of the tap. I have no complains and I wouldn’t spend a dime more than I am now for what I get in addition to microplastics.

Does it count if nobody knows the words?

I haven’t watched Phantasm in a while

Not everyone has marine training

The only thing that stands out thinking about the game is the dialog choices you get when you play through the game with really low intelligence. I think it gets the best ending.

Fuck $80 mario you can get Garfield Kart for $5

What will this accomplish? They renamed the Sears Tower and nobody got on board. Sears went bankrupt and they still own the name of that skyscraper. This just seems like today’s flavor of wet fart.

I once traded two 30 racks to Vince Neil for a garage show and all I had to show for it was a clogged toilet and cigarette burns on my couch.

I do CNC lathe. I could run it with the door open but don’t due to coolant. It shouldn’t run with the door open but it does run like that. Safety interlock is long gone. I roll my sleeves back on my flannel jacket and button the cuffs. I sweat a lot and the breeze that brings me fresher air makes me get cold easily.

I have seen the Tool Time episode where Tim The Toolman Taylor has his shirt ripped off by a lathe and am very aware of the danger every day. The green button doesn’t get pushed until doors are closed.

As a machinist I will tell you that it’s the pieces you can see stuck in your skin with your eyes that are the real problem. Those usually hurt a lot more. Machine shops are filthy and it’s up to you to wear glasses and gloves and wash up with soap containing pumice.

A bigger concern to me is the cloud of coolant steam containing lord knows what billowing out of a lathe. I’ve started wearing a winter coat and hat during work with a fan blasting right at the door to keep the air I breathe clean.

Anyways neat picture. Judging by the tiny chips it looks like the mill is to blame. Makes me glad I run mostly lathe these days. I had something like that in my elbow for a few months. It was about one centimeter long and hurt like hell when pressure was on it.

If you want to run machines the first tool you should buy yourself is good tweezers. I have 6 different pairs of tweezers. You can borrow workshop tools but should stay sanitary and have your own tweezers.

I haven’t played with a switch very much but I think the joysticks are worse than what they made for GameCube. I am under the impression that switch has what amounts to a directional pad underneath a joystick. Like that Gameboy peripheral with the lights, magnifier, and joystick that clips over the D pad. The joystick is there on the switch but output is only an analog 8 directions.

Pardon me if I’m wrong here but what I see with Nintendo is them making bad hardware. I know it’s made for kids but even they deserve better. The switch version of any big AAA game that got a switch port is generally really really dumbed down and looks and runs like garbage. I can’t wait to hear about Cyberpunk 2077 looking and running like garbage again. 5 years after it came out.

I would like to change the radio station in a school zone and not run over a bunch of kids because I had to take my eyes off the road. Touchscreens are more distracting to use than my phone, which I don’t like to use while driving because it is distracting enough.

Touchscreens absolutely do not belong in cars and I hope my car with buttons doesn’t fucking die before the trend dies.

I’ve been watching King of the Hill at work (all shift sometimes) recently and it’s gotten to be real difficult to see the antagonistic characters on the show in the same light. Cartoons are supposed to be an exaggeration of their real life counterparts. Knowing what texas is harboring in real life really washes out the humor these antagonists are supposed to bring.

The shit has wheels and isn’t behind a fence. Move it yourself, tell them to fuck off, and go back the next day and move it again until the management give up. What are they going to do? Get a police stake out? Hire RoboCop to uphold the law? Never attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity.

What part of “George Thorogood concert” do you not understand? This wasn’t a shitter in the middle of nowhere. Locking the door is a lot more effective than trying to be louder than I Drink Alone. Yeah, you know when I shit alone I prefer to be by myself.

Steal from the rich: accept expensive gifts from the rich

Give to the poor: at the very least see if anyone needs his old phone. One of you may know somebody who has a cracked screen and is willing to up/side/downgrade to a phone in better condition.
