A good friend from Junio high school is watch her kitty die before her eyes today. First thing I saw on FB and can't stop fucking crying now. Her kitty has had a long life but it never makes it easier. She also has had her truck break down twice this month and downsizing issues at work.. I just feel incredibly sad right now. I'm holding my three kitties tighter than ever but I feel sad I can't do anything to ease her pain![]()
I didn't really send a PM, was more a play on the whole reading for me in French thing. Glad you worked it out though!
Have to exchange my wii u today. 4 attempts to finally update and Mario 3d world hard freezes with music on a continuous loop at the splash screen. At least I got my hdmi splitter set up and that works great
Got a roomate last night (tbd if good or bad news, atleast its extra money)
dog gets diarrhea overnight and shits on the carpetand she doesnt bark to have to go out, she never barks, so she probably just cowered at the door wondering what to do.
She's still sleeping lol
oh that's perfect, gives you time to really lay out how youre gonna phrase it
"roommate, why is there poop on the floor?" "how dare you, dog is a saint! she would never do that" "i think you know what you need to do to make this up to me..."
and then sex. that's how that works right?
I'm not quite ready to scare this girl off
We shall resume this in 2 1/2 hours in the holy grounds of the NHL thread
Am I allowed to post the Michigan pileup in here, on the grounds that these idiot drivers were at or exceeding the speed limit on icy roads with limited visibility?
Oh, and the guy recording the video didnt turn his phone sideways.
I watched that at work this morning. People are fucking insane.
A+ driving, eh?
S rank more like it.
good lord. that's just brutal. i'm surprised the truckers weren't communicating with each other, but i suppose there are lots of channels. in conditions like that i probably would have followed one of those trucks right into the pileup. on the interstates in bad weather i like to tuck in behind them (not so close they cant see me obv) and just stay there until i need to exit, on the theory that they're communicating with and getting information i may not be aware of, and that they're just generally better drivers.
Being behind a semi is probably the last thing I'd want to do in bad weather, largely due to rain/snow they kick up and their trailers further blocking FoV. Of course, having them behind you isn't much better if you suddenly need to stop, especially on a downward slope.
Without knowing how that crash started, though, it's unfortunate so many got caught up on it. I may joke about people around here forgetting how to drive the moment a flake of snow hits the ground, but there certainly comes a point where accidents aren't the driver's fault. In weather like that, I'd probably be going both a fair amount under the speed limit and maintaining at least a 30 yard distance. Overly cautious, perhaps, but I'd rather not be in a ditch and paying a towing/repair bill with a likely insurance spike to follow. Or worse, an ER visit.![]()
Ugh I hate gamestop sometimes. Wanted to burn a gift card so I picked up a zelda amiibo, and asked if they had nsmbu. They didn't but had it held for me at another one. Show up and they want 36 for just the disk and generic clamps shell.
