Oh, no, that's too much. Being from the Chicago suburbs, between Menards and Empire Carpet (before their growth to add the -Today- addendum), there's a deep groove upon my brain made by those jingles. That, and John Madden's congested cadence for various advertisements. Simply John Maddening.

^...588-2300 --damn, it!

It does! They're both better than the degree of their overall popularity, and better than the other similar bands that were noticed when say, "Evil" came out... But, they still kinda half suck, sometimes, and it doesn't seem like they should, haha

Which is maybe...exactly what you just said with more words.

Save big money at Menards, but not on Menards...

^...save ^big ^money-- Gaa! That jingle will never leave me. Damn you, midwest!

I am very short, and sit up rather straight. My head hits what should be the most comfortable parts of every kind of seating in the most uncomfortable way. This is an accurate representation of the sensation, when curved neck portion ends up at top of your skull, and doubly so, if it's a bucket seat. Special cushions help, in certain vehicles, which can also alleviate the seatbelt going practically across your throat. Our old Outback is tolerable, which is lovely.

We have a couple IKEA Poang chairs at home, and I need to make pillow booster-seats for the damned things, or it's just this image, lol

Search ammonia and sulfur smells in bowel movements, and see if any typical causes match your current dietary habits or medical status/medications including supplements. If they don't, see a doctor, then get to a gastroenterologist, if you can. Maybe just do that, anyway. Regular checks, and digestive health are extremely important, regardless of weird poo and especially because of weird poo, no matter how uncomfortable, it's more comfortable than the alternative.

Hahahaha, I can hear her saying this, hungover, too.

Hooray! I think! Cause that is correct.

When my focal seizures weren't as well managed, one of the closest descriptions I could give is it often feels like experiencing various Windows error noises. Like, all varieties of them, from '93-XP, fit the bill. Occasionally, it's dragging the multiplying, cascading window that won't respond, across a teeny screen of barely available conciousness. Meds make me feel pretty dumb, and some errors still get through, but I don't dunk, donk, dink, or bonk so much!

Super cute and fuzzy wuzzy until it's jumping spider season, and they're in the house, and jesus goddammit jumping spiders, I just cleaned up this shit, can you not web up the entire kitchen every fucking morning? Tiny ass Cirque du Soleil across the light fixtures, every damned day! Cute little shits.

Ahhhh, I'm always excited when someone else mentions Northern Exposure! Sometimes it's felt like enough people haven't known what I was talking about, if I couldn't pull up the IMDb, I'd think it was some kind of Mandela effect of memories. One of the most fantastic themes, too -- like the coziest aspects of the 90s made audible. Time for a re-watch, it's been a long time.

Just gonna leave this here...

There might be a less etsy type place to find that, but there it is.

 

I mostly do drip coffee (shh, I'm basic), but I'd like a more consistent, fresh brew, and potentially something that could do an espresso grind, as well.

I've seen good things about the Capresso Infinity Plus, but thought I'd ask about the personal preferences from more experienced folks here.

It'd be lovely to have something that can easily fit on the counter, and with a simple mechanism and/or reparability (even if that means looking for old stock of a certain model).

Thanks!

Last time, I used: "Anybody need anything while I'm out?" and that went over well. May not make it through this surgery on Friday, so I turn to Lemmy for top-notch suggestions for my potential last words!
