I didn’t have the option to have my bank send it in, but I printed a check for each kid each month to cover school lunch costs. I don’t know what it cost them to process the checks, but it wasn’t all that inconvenient for me to do. If there had been a no-cost way to load funds online I would have done it, but it wouldn’t have been much more convenient for me. I’m not going to pay extra to make it easier for them.
“Room temperature” is such an odd way to refer to a temperature.
It never drops below room temperature in a room. Because, you know, room temperature is the temperature of the room.
Whenever anyone talks about how high interest rates are now, I remember when my wife and I bought our house in 1997. We were pre-approved for a 30-year fixed rate mortgage at 7.5%, and we were told to take it.
What we were actually told was, "you’ll never see a rate this low again.
Are obligate carnivores still ok to target?
Yeah, that’s what I meant. Ask the women in your life for advice.
What do your woman friends say?
Because Trump’s been an idiot all along. With Biden there was a decline, so they could claim he was no longer competent. Trump was never competent, so any decline doesn’t really matter much.
Neither did my grandparents. Likewise, my parents didn’t update their will when my children and nieces were born.
The attitude among all generations has been: your own kids inherit, and they distribute to their kids as they see fit.
I wasn’t in my grandparents wills, but I ended up with some of their furniture.
It’s only mediocre if it isn’t prepared properly.
Waffle bowl for the win!
You’re doing it wrong. It sounds like you’re following some goofy rules about what Thanksgiving is supposed to be.
Turkey? Yeah, sure, we’ll have one. Ours wears a woven blanket made of bacon to cook. Never had it come out dry.
Ham too, why not. Lasagna, of course. Crab cakes, definitely. Maybe a beef roast or ribs.
Sides? No fewer than 12. Chestnut stuffing, potato filling, green beans, roasted potatoes, caprese salad, broccoli, asparagus, etc.
Desserts. Should be four or five. Pumpkin pie (don’t like it? Good. I wanted it all anyway). Cherry pie. Apple pie. Blueberry pie, chocolate cream roll, ice cream, etc.
Based on your description, whoever is cooking your food doesn’t know how to do it right. It’s not like Thanksgiving requires you to cook everything wrong.
The “screaming” is their version of flirting. They’ve been buried a long time, and they don’t have much time to get their groove on.
When you suck your fat gut in so hard your rib cage pops out.
Yeah, I meant “guaranteed”
the US doesn’t give their citizens the same rights as those in other countries receive.
The U.S. doesn’t give their citizens the same rights that the U.S. constitution has.
When people ask me why I like Linux, my go-to reason is my main personal machine. I use it for everything I do outside of work, including running my Emby server.
I built it from $500 worth of parts 13 years ago. I’ve kept updating the os and applications. It’s starting to slow down a bit after the last os upgrade, but it’s still plenty usable.
I am getting concerned about the spinning platters. As far as I am aware, Linux won’t prevent an ancient hard disk drive from reaching the natural end of is life.
It’s probably time to move on to a new machine. Well, new motherboard, CPU, RAM, and disks at least.
I can’t think of a time in my Internet life when “Well, duh” was so often the most appropriate response to so many posts.
This is what comes from not having anyone in your life who can tell you you’re an idiot.
So sitting on my ass eating candy isn’t the way to lose weight?
I’m white. This fucking turd doesn’t speak for me.
