Wow did not realize maple syrup could mold. I guess I go through it fast enough that it has no time to. I use it a lot on ice cream, it's awesome. Come to think of it I've never even thought of checking if that expires.

I imagine some put a date on it, but I didn't see one on the moldy bottle. It's pretty obvious when it's bad, and I think mold's the only issue. I've had open bottles go off before, but that was the first new bottle for me. I go through phases with maple. Typically pancakes and in yogurt. I had been buying presweetened yogurt lately, and just got back into pancakes, so I've had some maple that's been sitting awhile.

Yesterday I went to the awful place to buy furnace filters. Today, I went to install one and realized I had bought the wrong size (the size that fit the old furnace, not the new) so now I have to go back to the awful place.

:oops:

Maple syrup on ice cream? You might be Canadian.

I drove to microcenter to get a new computer for work, and they aren't taking cash. Waste of time... I installed debian kde on an old 5400rpm spinner, and hopefully I can just clone that to a ssd and have it work when I get a new machine.

Oh yeah I found a bunch of places around town not using cash anymore. Cotton bills absorb too much debris and dirt, and by that I mean human leftovers, like dead skin cells and boogers.
Its a germ condominium and that aint good.

Real Canadians make a real thick syrup and poor it over snow in the winter! It's like pure maple toffee; It's all the rage with the grandkids.

Oh man I remember that back in school. It was a big thing during St-Catherines day. La Tire D'erable.

It was kinda like those Halloween Kiss candies, except way better.

I've never had any, but my SIL loved this when she visited family in Canada (can remember exactly where right now). I love maple syrup so that sounded super delicious!

Lolz!! Self pleasuring video clips, aside from this not happening, I don't have a camera on my computer! What sort of technical wizardry is this?!

My Sony WH-1000XM2s are going into pairing mode every time I turn them on. No more firmware updates available. I'll have to wait to next Black Friday to pick up some XM3s :confused:

I gotta maybe work tomorrow and my new roomie has some legit weed and wants to share and i can't smoke atm till i know for sure if i work tomorrow. I am sitting here getting a damn contact high and i may be working tomorrow BIG maybe. Gonna call and if no work then gonna get so baked you will be calling me Sarah Lee.

I work hard, i player harder so yeah i gotta call the boss in like a hour and see whats up. :)I got this 100mg package of indica edibles that have me set 3 days but this job has been put on hold but not wanting to get baked then have my boss call and be like i need you tomorrow and rest of the week! The owner of the house where the work is being done has postponed work cause of unforeseen circumstances. Pretty much on call.

Here is to hoping i got no work for the rest of the week! :) I don't exactly need the cash as i get paid on friday anyways, i help as i can be dependable and the guy usually needs a able body person. He has been burned by a few people and in all the 15 years i been working for him i only called in once to not work, was from a car crash where i got whip lash.

Toaster Strudel is amazing. It wouldn't be a problem at all to eat a whole box at once. PopTarts always sucked. Some varieties are good enough to suffice when you're starving and lazy, but they're objectively bad. Every year or two I'll pick a box up, and then remember "Oh yea, that's why I don't buy these". Generics? GTFO with that shit. They make PopTarts taste like a gourmet feast in comparison.


I think it's time for this once more:
