What first world problem did you have today?

[balloonshark]

I had ketchup with my homemade fries tonight. Would have had tartar sauce but lxskllr squished all the packets.

 

[Red Squirrel]

lol. I had to quit taking my blood thinner (warfarin) because I have a heart cath this week. I have to temporarity take the shots to slow my blood from clotting in the meantime. A shot every twelve hours for 3 days.

Wow that sounds painful. Needles don't bother me too much but I would have trouble actually having to give one to myself especially in the stomach.

 

[Red Squirrel]

Extra ketchup packets are perfect to sneak under the toilet seat in the ladies bathroom. Got to keep them on their toes!

 

[highland145]

Only if it is made with real cat.

Is that wrong?

 

[BoomerD]

Is that wrong?

Not necessarily...but then it's that abomination called "catsup," not ketchup.

You know the bad thing is it really doesn't hurt much because it's a small diameter needle. It's just the thought of having to hurt yourself that's hard to overcome. I also get the same way when trying to solder. It's my curse.

Diabetics probably think I'm a big weenie. I do however manage to to test my blood with a finger stick every week . It hurts more than the needle but I don't see the spring loading blade that's going to puncture me before testing though.

Yep .... its the IDEA of sticking a needle into a vein that freaks me out a lot more then the actual "sticking in" part which usually doesn't bother me much.

FYI I once had SINUS surgery with only a "local" .... I can CLEARLY recall the sound of my nose cartilage coming away from my face when the Dr HIT IT WITH A SMALL HAMMER & CHISEL right above my upper lip! (sounded just like pulling a wing off of a roast chicken)

Point being I don't get skeeved out easily!

 

[Red Squirrel]

I keep getting close to accidentally stepping in bear poop when I go out for a walk so I need to keep watching my step as I walk. it's bound to happen at this point lol.

I finally managed to snag an Xbox series x. But it's the Halo limited edition so I won't get it until November 15. Weeks after bf2042 comes out. Such a rough life

Just don't step on the bear...

Or be the bear poop.

Better to be the pooper than the poopee.

lmao just fell for a phishing simulation thing at work. Twice now. I need to stop checking my email before drinking my coffee. I just kind of mindlessly scroll through all my email and I had this one that showed that someone has been trying to reach me in MS teams to approve something and I'm like "we use Teams too now?" (they keep changing that stuff) so without even thinking I clicked on the damn thing lol.

Kind of makes me wonder if I've ever done the same at home but with a real one... I almost feel like I should format my computer. I do want to look in setting up Firefox in a chroot jail some day though, to protect from such incidents.

I really need to add more lighting to my back yard. I had to go check something in the shed the other day, and it's starting to get dark earlier now so it was pitched black. I'm thinking to myself "if there's a bear right in front of me I won't even see it and I'll bump right into it".

I just need to add fixtures to the shed really, maybe one over the door and one on the back, would light up the whole yard.

wife buys a new thermometer citing we are out of the plastic cover for the Braun. She didn't bother to check the medicine cabinet...

I got some bad news for you, you bought the 3 bears' property. BE prepared to be Goldilocks, and I mean the original Grimm's version, not the Disneyfied one.

Ma used to read us stories from the Brothers when we were kids. No wonder I turned out so normal....

That’s where I learned to never trust short people.

Now that you mention it, I could go for a nice bowl of porridge right about now.

You needy for companionship and clicked on spam girl emails too, I presume?

Just put on a Guy Lafluer jersey and watch those Bruins run away in bitterness

Or be the bear poop.

Two of the worst ways to die are:
End up as bear shit
End up as shark shit

About 2 months ago, I had 3 bears go through my back yard...a momma and 2 BIG cubs...I was only able to get a quick pic of the last "cub"...

a couple of mornings ago, I found this in my back yard along the same track:

Folks all over town have been reporting bears getting into their garbage cans, strewing garbage all over the place. The bear population seems to have exploded recently.
