@Synical yeah it probably fell off the back of a truckโ€ฆis that how all things travel in Jersey?

@Redskye572 How shipments manage to make their way out of Jersey is a bit of a mystery itself, isn't it? ๐Ÿ˜‰

@disk4mat Peanut Butter, or Nutella?
Crisps, chips, or biscuits, and what goes best with them?

@Render Panda Express is better for late/all nighters anyways (super greens!), or the dining halls - especially if you coordinated a request with them in advance.

What Iโ€™ve noticed the most about the subjects in communities is:
1. Does not bitch and moan about other gens as much as other gens bitch about other gens.
2. 1989 was the last year where it was cool to wear your hair like a member of Whitesnake and Aqua Net.
3. Aches and pains. Knees and joints.
4. Still upset with Steve Perry for his departure from Journey.
5. The effects of going emo in the 90โ€™s is still with us, just below the surface.
6. Happily forgotten by most major tv networks.

@stratkitten eh, they probably figured he got mixed up again and really meant Bon Jovi.

After all, he's Livin' on a Prayer... ๐Ÿ˜

@LaurelGreen You know, I've been wondering... If there's "pro-biotics," does that by extension mean there are also "amateur-biotics," and what sort of crossover concerns should we have?

(besides havin' to wipe down both sides of the seat and takin' a shower after an... event?)

I've decided I'm going to start getting all my news from AppleTV+. When I'm curious about the space program, it's "For All Mankind." Concerned about the climate? "Silo." Need the latest in sports? "Ted Lasso." And when I need to scratch the history bug, there's "Franklin" and "Masters of the Air."

@MotherDucker ...so what you're saying is... at a subconcious level, you've considered drugging your mom? (I mean, haven't we all?) ๐Ÿ˜‚

@wolfwoman Prius and Tesla drivers were the worse when I was dealing with DC beltway traffic, but that was a decade+ ago. BMW was probably in the top 10, behind anything with a coffee-can hangin' off the bumper as a tailpipe.

@Alfred That is nice! Can you create an image of a woman data scientist manipulating databases in a science fiction style?

@Alfred How are things going for you today, created any nice pictures recently?

@process In honor of your sacrifice, my wife braided both my beard and hair.

We mutually agreed that there would not be a drum circle.

For those that like Internet Spaceships, big fight goin' down for a couple hours now in Eve Online, time dilation is impacting other systems.

@FreedomATX Sounds like it was one mother plucker of a visit. ๐Ÿ˜ข

@LiberalLibrarian We're keepin' a close eye on the kiddo's campus. Second encampment just went up. They double majored, so we've got three ceremonies to attend altogether - and after missing HS graduation because of the pandemic, anything missing with this one will NOT make them happy.

@Synical Just to put this into perspective vis a vis my alma mater, UCLA.

It has 46,000 students and 3,000 faculty. Two hundred people were arrested. I'd wager no more than half of them were students. So these chucklefucks screwed with their classmates to make an empty gesture that won't end the war.

@LiberalLibrarian I'm all for those that want to advocate for something they believe in (assuming it's not illegal or threatens anyone's safety).

But I almost feel a bit bad for those students that have allowed themselves to be misled about the potential consequences of their actions. Making an over-the-top gesture to draw attention usually isn't the answer in the Real World (tm).

'Cause there's nothing the world likes more than the taste of your hopes, dreams, and salty tears when you FAFO.
