You quite honestly have slipped so far down the rabbit hole, that in simple english means you just can't be trusted to watch children.

You are supremely correct. At this point in my life, were I to be given charge over a youngling, the first thing I would do, would be to teach him to play chess, and the second thing I would do, would be to teach her how to figure out who killed Kennedy.

Obviously, these are traits no one wishes their babysitter to have. I am aware of that. Frankly, I don't see it as much of a concern, as I tend to prefer the company of those older, wiser, and more brilliant, than myself.

I've begun to notice that, as I get older, those older than I are starting to become more senile, as well, but that's okay--look at the news.

Also, I don't think it would be a good idea for me to have to explain to any child, why it is perfectly okay for myself to inhale cannabinoid vapors, but not for them. Like that is a whole other topic, yo.

Anyway, so, like, what, am I, like, too sarcastic? Isn't that, like, your perception, man?

I would say that chewing the leaves would be on the low end of the scale. Then snorting maybe? I would say injecting would be the high end of the scale. Don't know where freebasing, smoking crack, or shoving it up your ass ranks on the scale.

To be clear, this is what I was referring to:

Some people are allergic to garlic. Can cause anaphylaxis in extreme cases. Usually considered extremely healthy...

All I know is my mom started doing that and died about three to four months later. All that was in the house got pitched.

I am sorry.

I only learned the term "plugging" when I went to Wikipedia last night to learn what exactly "freebasing" was. Thought it involved a needle, but that's something else. Personally, I'm not too familiar with things I don't do. You even know solution percentages....

My personal opinion on coke nowadays.... I'm making it easy enough on the coroner as it is.

"What do you think he died from?"
"I haven't done any examinations or tests, but I got a pretty good fucking idea..."

That's how I see that conversation playing out. if it happens.

Could have been many things. Started having acid reflux and stomach issues and didn't want to eat on a Sunday. Went to a doctor Wednesday. He changed her Prevacid to Nexium. Decided to leave on a out of state trip with family Friday morning. Died Saturday night.

Mentioned issues with her medications before to her doctor and was told they could be changed if she wanted, and she didn't go that route. That's the only thing that stopped me from looking into a lawsuit....

Well, this was when I was younger , back in my second enlistment. If you see a preponderance of wickedly good looking 20 something sonsaguns with hot chicks and cool kids....then yeah, I guess my little swimmers were active.

Sorry if there was any offense to my comment about losers in plasma donation.

During my almost 2 year stint at a plasma pheresis center I saw many different donors. Most, but not all, were there for extra money to help with their drug habit. I can't count the number of times we had to call the EMS due to withdrawal symptoms. When a heroin addict is coming down from their high, if they then decide to have their blood drawn... their level of opiates drops even lower while their blood is decreased. Which increases their withdrawal symptoms.
I also can't count how many times we had to re-setup the pheresis equipment because the donor was very dehydrated due to alcohol abuse.

This doesn't even begin to address, the exchange of money and drugs between donors during the donation process.

There are strict policy rules that cannot be bent to accommodate donors. One of those rules is how often someone can donate. Donors often would try to come in a day early to donate so they could collect another 15 dollars and then get angry to the point of having the police called.

sorry for the venting

Jackstar · June 01, 2014, 04:34:24 AM

I donated plasma once. Once. No wonder they have to pay people to do it--what a pain in the arm.

No worries, your vent is in the right thread.
Not to mention it's more compelling than reading about how someones avatar lust after them over and over, and their wanking sessions. At some point it becomes clear they need to push away from the keyboard, and get laid. That is the impression I get at least, but to each their own. Happy faping!

Spiders and Stinkbugs and Ticks, oh ICK!!!

Trying to get my yard work done while it's NOT RAINING. Despite my best efforts(tucking my pants into my socks, wearing long sleeves, etc) I had to remove THREE TICKS yesterday. And this morning...this morning...I sat down to log into my computer and A SPIDER WAS CRAWLING UP MY ARM!!!!! (Probably the spouse of the one I killed in the tub last night....)

Oh, the joys of home ownership. :

Oh, yeah, the stinkbugs. They are every-f%^&(#g-where!! On the kitchen cabinet doors, on the end tables in the living room, on the bathroom mirror....

Post Script: Now my scroll wheel isn't working on my mouse. It went flying along with the arm-spider I haven't found yet. eeewwwwww.

Good Morning.

Yeah with 2 dogs and a cat... ticks... they tremble at the utterance of my name.

UnscreenedCaller · June 01, 2014, 06:26:53 AM

Oh, god, stinkbugs! I saw them down in Maryland when my kid was in school. They're disgusting things, and TW you have my complete and utter sympathy in having to deal with them. The only things I can offer up in response are the cave crickets that I know are in the basement and that are capable of launching themselves AT you, not away. Truly the stuff of nightmares, as they are impossible to kill. And finding ticks on a thick haired husky is really, really challenging. She gets them sometimes from the woods on the side of the parkway where she's walked.

Right now I am sharing space with ladybug larvae that I had to bring home from school with me Friday, as I forgot the bring their Ladybugland House back in and I didn't want them to die over the weekend. They're quiet, they don't smell, they're selfcontained and they're cute when they grow up. The perfect bug. And they go back to school on Monday morning, bless.

It's interesting to me to see what local animals people find annoying. In my neck of the woods, it's rattlesnakes, water moccasins, wild hogs and alligators. Oh, and drunken tourists.

McPhallus · June 01, 2014, 08:26:45 AM

Needy, attention-whoring, and slightly creepy "find out who your real friends are" posts on Facebook. Many of these are just crap that people forward once they see it, and some even come with built-in threats to defriend anyone who doesn't comply with the request. In terms of annoyances, they're up there with those stupid chain letters you used to get in the mail.

I discovered a black snake in my back yard one afternoon a few years ago. It was pretty large and I wasn't afraid of it, but I really didn't want it in my back yard. It was quite large and it was "looking" at me. So I picked up a stick and poked it and thought it might just slither away. Damn thing bit the stick and pulled it out of my hand! It's speed and strength were amazing.

I don't dislike snakes. But I sure look out for them now. And I give them plenty of room. (Same with bears. But I've never had a "personal" run-in with one of them.)

Moles, gophers and mice around here. No wonder people are assholes, considering we evolved from these little fuckers millions of years ago.

Alligators scare the shit out of me. When my mom was alive, I'd go for walks in her Florida neighborhood looking over my shoulder after a rain at any sump or place where they might hide out. My brother who lived in southern Florida was almost forced off the road by a huge garor. I have a healthy respect for those critters.

Around here it's raccoons and possums and field mince. None really are bothersome except to my dog, but one little girl I taught had her bunnies killed by a raccoon, so there's that. Any my two late house cats once let a mouse that somehow got in walk right in front of them while they both looked at me for directions on what to do with it. Useless.

Don't forget the lame FB game requests like Candy Crush. Those are like Jehovah Witnesses on the doorstep 24/7
