I've blamed my wife. She refused to do the naked rain dance. She's selfish like that.

I'm guessing but we probably got 2" in an hour. Most of it went down the storm drain and I'll have to water again Monday.



Rude says, "Hi."

Not really but he's an ass.

Been getting tons of rain in Tampa Bay lately, I'll try to wish some North.

Tell Rude I said "Hi".

I was there for a wedding last weekend - holy hell the storms!! It was at Trade Winds in St. Pete Beach..... still had a great time. The booze tasted just as good! I had never been in that area but now want to make a 4-5 day vacation down there. Doesn't seem like it would be difficult to do. They had live music everywhere (I'm a huge fan of that.... :thumbsup:)

I gave my computer an STD.

I had my thumb holding down the CPU mobo power cable's release latch but it didn't come out easy. When it did release, I ended up brushing my bent (skin under tension) thumb against the edge of the rear exhaust fan. It wasn't all the steel or jagged edges that bled me, it was a relatively smooth plastic ridge on the fan. Probably smudged some blood on the fan and some cables -- thank god PVC cables use lead as a stabilizer. Would hate to be anyone who isn't me going in there again.

The Fuzz stripped me of my appointed Lifer status. It helped with validating my meager existence. :'(

What in the fuck are you talking about?

Is The Fuzz another forum you frequent?

Are you talking about the mods here?

When the shit were you a lifer?

Hooking my computer back up under the desk yesterday, I nailed my head against the table -- I thought I was being careful. Didn't think it was that hard, but I'm still feeling something today. Should start wearing a helmet while doing this shit. Nailed my head so many times at work just messing with my own computer.

Can't sort microSD cards on Amazon by speed. You can sort by class but Class 10 can mean anything from 40 to 95MB/s read speeds. I finally got a 128Gb Lexar but only because someone had posted read/write speeds.

I screwed up and have been wolfing down Hydrocodon ever 6 hours like an idiot instead of Penicillin VK the last 24 hours, after having dental surgery.

At least it's wearing off, but I'm not feeling much pain atm :p

Put the wrong container on the night stand, derp.

Haven't been that buzzed in a long time.

OMFG, you actually took the opioid?

Seriously, a few people I knew told me they weren't going to fill their Tylenol III prescription after wisdom teeth extraction cause they were afraid of becoming addicted. Here I am kicking myself for not finishing the bottle when I took mines out.

Seriously... hope you didn't OD, that shit's strong.

I just actually looked it up just now. Tylenol 3 is apparently for pussies compared to hydrocodone -- not really, but the hydrocodone is supposedly stronger than T3.

I don't even know why they prescribed oxy for my extraction. Didn't need or use it.

I take opiates for cancer pain. I get the 5mg pills as I can spilt them in half. Pain relief without being totally gorked.

I could really go for some eggs but refuse to pay the $2.60 or so for a dozen. Stupid "Bird Flu".

I purchased a new motherboard that has 10 SATA ports onboard and it only came with 2 SATA cables.

Been editing BF2 with the map editor and added an AIX V-22, but the stupid AI can't make it work right so I deleted it...well thought I deleted it. Went in game and there on the helipad was the damn V-22 again. Was like WTF and went back and noticed I had edited the wrong damn file in the wrong damn folder!

I was briefly interested in a career as a saffron farmer... Turns out the saffron plant may be toxic and saffron itself may also be toxic in large quantities. Chances are that handling pesticides would do more damage than the actual plant but, ya know.

I was going to order a McPizza from Dominos since I'm tired of the "artisnal" pizza joint down the block.

I go to order hot wings, and they no longer offer bleu cheese for the dip. What!? Nope, no Dominos for me :(
