I sure hope they had huge, non refundable deposits for it and transferred a bunch of money into Venice for no benefit of their own (no real detriment either, but I bet it would help Venice)

I have always interpreted it more like people with a build like Zach woods, not just people who exercise. And in my sexual history, the skinny ones were all smokers, which has got to have an impact.

Sometimes life is like an episode of it’s always sunny in Philadelphia, and a bunch of bad people are doing bad things to each other.

They really always are.

Chuck made the right nickname choice

The POS system at my bakery rounds up when it’s for a customer (getting half of a loaf of bread for example) and down when it calculates the 50% employee discount. That alone has a weirdly huge impact on my job satisfaction.

I once had a coworker react to my atheism like that and I was so proud of myself for saying in my second language “what good does your religion bring when you would treat me like that for my beliefs while I treat you well?” It actually seemed to sink in, at least for all of our other (religious) coworkers who were, uh, forming a circle around us.

My sister used to say “skinny guys get all the cock,” which I have not yet seen disproven in 15+ years of sexual activity primarily with men (though I’m generally skeptical about things like that). She’s married now and has toned it down, so she hasn’t said it in a while, but her husband is skinny.

I don’t have a yard or eat meat so grilling isn’t my strong suit- that one looks both fancy and somewhat ad hoc. Was it converted from something else or am I just ignorant about grills?

Deep enough to hide until roughly WWI

And maybe they killed Amelia Earhart!

Oh my god, I’m in a place with just over half (40 sqm) that as usable space (there’s also storage) with my husband and a cat. It’s not great, but it’s fine.

She voted against the monarchy, I don’t think she wanted to be queen

They have a thing called hand cheese in Germany. It’s a relatively hard and mild cheese with high protein and low fat, so it doesn’t melt easily and is good plain as a snack. Anyway, you’re not supposed to just eat it straight from your hand.

Signed- a dumb foreign exchange student.

Drink a lot of water and eat enough food. I need roughly an extra meal’s worth of food if I stay up all night. Don’t eat it all at once though, because that can make you sleepy. Listen to pumpy music if you can, and if it becomes possible to nap, up to 45 minutes helps me, but between that and about 4 hours, it just gets worse.

Tbh, I hear that almost exclusively from native Germans, though that might be because I had an Irish sounding maiden name and people figured I’d be insulted by potato jokes. Weirdly, I don’t hear much teasing of Germans from immigrants. I do it, like the other day I left work in socks and crocs and pointed it out as a final step of my Eindeutschung to my coworkers, so not really cutting, but I still don’t hear even light teasing much from others. The most I see is loaded eye contact whenever something is really German. Things like unbelievable bureaucracy, or very precise engineering, or an absolutely terrifying thing that’s for some reason aimed at children.

Yes, now is the time for peace.

He’s just a really good physical comic

I go for multi day camping festivals, so it would probably be enough for admission, 2 sets of an under layer, an outer layer, a warm layer, and shoes. If you only have one outfit, you’ll have a bad time.

But if you know where to find cheap larp gear, please let me know.
