My employer (more a customer who is purchasing our services) is trying to do away with business class flights!!

There is no way I am flying to China (from Toronto) in the cattle car! I'd rather die!!! (or stay home, whichever)

God gave us sleeping pills for a reason...

Was given a new out of the box never been booted Windows 10 laptop computer to setup and install a few programs on. OMG IT IS F'N slow to do updates on this thing! it is an I5 Haswell and it has been updating for over an hour. Really M$? No wonder you are giving Win 10 away.

if I win the $1B lotto, it will barely make up for my loses in the stock market these past week

same w/fresh install of Win7.
not with d/l the updates but populating the list of files to be downloaded.

took several hours for Windows Update to give me that list.
d/l only took a few min.

I'm hungry and I cant decide whether I should visit the grocery store or take over a federal building.

I'm having a hard time deciding which event to see for free while in Cali this coming March for vacation. My uncle reached out to a vendor and they came back with this:

Here are the tickets that we have available for that time frame in March. Please let me know if any of these are of interest:


• Kings vs. New Jersey Devils on Saturday, 3/12 @ 7:30 PM

• Lakers vs. New York Knicks on Sunday, 3/13 @ 6:30 PM

• Lakers vs. Sacramento Kings on Tuesday, 3/15 @ 7:30 PM

I'm a big hockey fan, but since I'll be in LA and it being Kobe's last season... I think LA v NY is a no brainer. The place will be crazy.

My $2.63 starbuck's venti coffee tastes incredibly burnt. On top of that I have to find a way to overcome my low self esteem from visiting starbucks in the first place.

McD small coffee $1

McD charges you more in going from med to large than small to med.

oh the inhumanity.

Still don't know how this company was so successful. Their coffee is so, so bad. Of the 4 or 5 times I've had it, it's always bad. Can't blame a bad/stale batch. D:

Their coffee ALWAYS tastes burnt. It's so so bad, and I'm not just ripping on it because it's cool to rip on SB. It just SUCKS.

All of a sudden, we are immediately friends.

I don't understand. Is low self esteem what is making you go to SB or do you feel cheap and used after going there? Do you leave SB doing the walk of shame?

It really does. Once you add a half gallon of heavy cream and various other things to mask the flavor, it's not bad. But getting a regular coffee is a truly unpleasant experience. Do most people actually like this crap? Is it marketing? Do most people only get the 550 calorie salted carmel mocha? I don't get it.

I add a splash of milk or a splash of cream to my coffee depending on what's available. No sugar. SBX makes their money on all these fancy drinks that is just sugar and more sugar. Unfortunately they have no idea what coffee is. It's a good thing too, because I can't stand the people that frequent these places anyway.

Unfortunately it was on the wrong corner of traffic.

Cheap and used. I feel a bath in rubbing alcohol is in order, after I gouge out my eyes for seeing myself inside one.

I love black coffee. It's the best way to see what is great coffee and what is crap, and to appreciate great coffee. However I couldn't hate myself enough to drink starbucks black.

Took a certain way I would not have taken if I did not see that the only other driver at the light was turning right (same as me). Got stuck when it turned out that it's another one of those drivers who does not realize that they can turn right on red. Held me up for 7+ minutes when I was 2 minutes from my destination and made me 1 minute late.

RAGE! The cross street was COMPLETELY CLEAR.

Good thing it's any size for $1 here and has been for quite some time now.

Fuck that shit. You want me to fly >8 hours? Business class or GTFO.

Can't seem to find a good used xbox one with kinect and a controller for $250ish or cheaper. trade in value on a xbox one at gamestop is $160. I'll give $50.00 more than that for one with kinect, or even more with multiple controllers, etc. Everyone here seems to think their used xbox is worth $350 minimum, even with no kinect.

I got 3 hits on Craigslist within an hour but all from different people... after almost a week of no responses. I swear to god, sometimes I think it's one person using multiple accounts to troll me. Oh, all 3 didn't reply after I did.

Edit: Also, I bought everything I need to make bread... except a container to store bread. Now I have to go to Wal-Mart.

 

[Charmonium]

Costco now has what I'm guessing are specialty/high end beers. I had to try to choose one. Definitely a 1st world problem. Maybe a .1% problem (speaking globally).

So after picking the bottle I like the most, it turned out to be a Chimay grand reserve. Think it was 8 bucks for a large bottle. Probably .5 liters, will have to check.

It's 9% alcohol which isn't a lot higher than regular beer like Stella Artois, but really gives you a nice warm buzz. A lot nicer than wine and even hard liquor. It's a little hoppy which I normally don't like but this is pretty good.

 

[WelshBloke]

I had to try to choose one.

Why? This is hurting my head.

WHY! WHY JUST ONE!
