The production batch that made this entire case of cans of Brisk tea was filled to the top. There is no air at all in these cans, so opening every single one results in a small splash of tea on my hand, no matter how carefully I try to open it.

I went to Whole Foods to get a deli sandwich. The sandwich was bigger than normal - the bread was cut improperly (?). Now I have a bigger sandwich than I can eat.

Nah, just the normal paycheck.

The full story is that I've never used Mint before and its miscategorizing all sorts of stuff right now, but the original post was funny. :)

Air hose on my pneumatic drill broke off right at the drill while I working on my car. The hose extracted across the garage and landed in a dirt pile, blowing dirt everywhere. Garage is now a haze of dust and everything is covered in it, FML.

got a free day of premium on my WOT account last night, too much work so I won't be able to play again before it expires.

We got a stock pitch from a company that is so bad we have a professional obligation to call the securities regulators. According to their own literature, the company has a current market capitalization of under a million bucks, external debt of 200k, debt owed to company officers of 400k, and is promising investors that the company is sitting on nearly 3T in easily extractable minerals. That's T as in trillions (petabucks?). They claim in their written promo material that the sale of stock will be their primary function. Scammers should at least put some effort into it. Narcing them out will hurt so good.

Still have roots in the sewer line from the house, and will be digging for awhile in the future to find the sections to replace :(

That works but using the scroll bar is easier for this old type.

terra cotta? That sucks. Might be easier to just replace the whole line.

Bro has a machine that pulls a new sleeve through the line but it's not cheap. Depends on your landscape if it's worth it.
