  • I love that part of the internet.

    Kinda like “guy code”

    “Was said he was with you last night”

    "Yep, all night. Cleaned the spark plugs in my car and drained the blinker fluid. Couldn’t have done it without him "

    But instead it’s “parent code”

    “Yeah fortnight is closed. They close it so everyone can get a good night’s sleep and be ready for the morning!”

    I was going to tell a personal story about telling my son McDonald’s was closed when I was broke or in a hurry but it reminded me of another cute store.

    My son broke his arm in a McDonald’s once. Hyper extended his elbow. Got a couple pins.

    Anyway a year or so later they completely remodeled that McDonald’s.

    We drove by the demolished building during the remodel and my son shouted “that’s what you get for breaking my arm! Who’s broken now!”

    Adorable vengeance served adorably cold.


  • I appreciate your kind words.

    And you pretty much nailed it on both fronts.

    I listened to some shrink talking on the radio probably over a decade ago. She mentioned that it wasn’t abnormal for her patients to say they don’t know what they enjoy.

    I matured late and had kids young. My kids are adults now.

    I don’t have hobbies or interests. I’ve been busy working .

    My boss pissed me off the other day. I could find an easier job. Maybe take a pay cut.

    What else would I do though?

    I don’t have hobbies, I don’t really want one. I don’t have friends, and I never really wanted them. I do have family and people who love me don’t worry.

    I don’t have friends, hangout spots, hobbies, TV shows I binged. I don’t even know what I like. So I guess I work? I should probably find something. Not mineral collecting but maybe trains?


  • I mean yeah but that’s a different kind of unfairness.

    What I’m talking about is one person being hungry while another person is forced to eat food when they aren’t. You’re more talking about someone who doesn’t deserve a multiple course meal.

    Knowing I’m going to mostly throw this shit away and not enjoy it while there are other people who want it sucks.


  • This kind of thing always seems so unfair to me. They were writing a book and meeting new friends. Meanwhile I’m so damn tired and ready to rest. I’d give you’re friend 10 or twenty years off my own life if it were an option.

    I wouldn’t hurt myself, I’m just saying another 30 or forty years seems so daunting…there’s people who want those years and that’s unfair.
