I so seriously miss Art Bell. That show was a special flavor of creativity and chaos at a time where the standard was to have screened calls and a more scripted show.

Pineapple, green peppers, onions, jalapenos, and if you want a meat, chicken or ham, but NO SAUCE. The sweet acidity plus tomatoes never tasted right to me, but I guessa little BBQ sauce would be ok.

So by your example, a socialist is someone who's not a dick? I can get behind that 😁.

If I'm ordering delivery I'm probably not in the greatest place either, but I'm not heartless.

"I'm sorry to hear you're having a bad day. Bring me my food unscathed, and I'll place a second order you can pick up and keep. What do you want to drink?"

Keep in mind that for a number of people, places like Starbucks and Dunkin create an accessable entry to something beyond a home made pot of Folgers.

I grew up smelling my parents coffee and enjoying the smell, but the taste was horrific so I swore off drinking coffee. Fast forward many years and I dipped my toe into that overly sweet and milky Starbucks and found something that actually tasted good to me. Many years later I have my own grinder and espresso machine, and numerous other coffee gadgets, and might only darken the door of Starbucks/Dunkin a few times a year for convenience. Can I make something at home I enjoy more? Yep. But there's nothing wrong with other people having other tastes along their coffee journey.

I love horror movies! Your comment got me to look this up to see if I should add it to my watch list.

Then I read the synopsis.

Thanks, but no thanks. Damn.

I've touched sprayed produce before just for the grip. 🥴

On RiF I could continuously scroll, but there was a line that noted "page 2" etc as you scrolled to the next page. That was a simple reminder to check myself lol.

"It's actually quite sad, as it's a sickness, not "playing"

Your first message literally states as of it were fact that the cat is sick, then you follow it with " might be nothing much" and acknowledge that's it's hard to diagnose with a 2 second gif. It makes it sound like you're pulling random comments out of the air just to hear yourself talk.

Have you met a younger cat? Have you known cats when they "get zoomies"? As strange as it may look, this is pretty damn normal silly cat behavior when they get really excited. Ever see a dog playing that gets so excited it startles itself with its own tail? It's the same thing.

To be fair, I work in hospice and we have run into situations where family members would help themselves to patient comfort meds if they could gain access. It's not a bad idea to track who has access along the way.

It took me long enough to see it, but I mean, the tips are touching.
