Isn’t that one of the main jokes in the Borat movies? When the characters are yelling at each other in Kazakh it’s all a mixture of Hebrew, Bulgarian, polish, Armenian, Romanian, and a ton of other phrases and sayings?

I worked for a brewery that brought in all their water from the same spring or something. Even though it was a chain with multiple us locations.

Mine was noticed because I have a multinodular goider. I asked about potential issues with it a couple times over the years and was always told I just needed to lose weight till the doctor finally noticed it in my early 20s. Who knew it was a lot easier to be active and control your appetite when your metabolism is actually working and you don’t feel like you always wanna crawl into bed?

You normally will get it after puberty, pregnancy, or menopause(at least with what I have, which is hashimotos thyroiditis, an autoimmune disease. Not sure about others) so, if it’s similar you likely developed it during puberty like myself and didn’t realize it or notice the changes because you assumed it was normal.

Excuse me, battle for bikini bottom and the shrek 2 game were FIRE.

I’ve had great success in saying I’m cancelling/leaving because I’m moving away. I picked a random area I knew wasn’t close to any of their chains and said I loved everything but unfortunately needed to move on. I’ve had 3 different chains immediately end the contract for me over the phone or in person doing this with no hassle.

The time I tried to quit one to swap to another gym, I had to make 3 calls, email multi-paragraph statements of why I was leaving and wait multiple months before they finally stopped charging me.

The entire time I was doing the awkward sad chuckles asking my partner repeatedly if it was for real and no, no ,no while I dragged it around killing it. I judged the parents soooooo hard for it.

There are a few roads in the suburbs that will have something finish getting fixed only for the same exact road to be torn up again for something else cause they didn’t coordinate. One time I saw a road get repaved cause it needed it, then half of it was torn back up to do some sort of maintenance, once that was fixed and repaved more of that area got torn up to change out some water stuff and drains, then a year later the whole road is torn up again to be repaved because now it’s been 5-6 years and parts of it need it.

Laundry detergent and baby formula are basically currency in some areas I’ve read.

I would have bet this was gonna be a trailer park boys reference when I started reading but holy shit, it may be a real thing. Meat theft rings

And my first thought to that idea was “ah yes, preserve Danny DeVito for years to come.”

Are you about to have another intense burst of compatibility with a girl we never see again?

Macarons are one I picked up a few years back. I’d be damned if I’m paying almost $3 for a cookie after my niece asked for some at the store. I went home, compared recipes and had a few dozen in front of her that night. They’re time consuming, but much of the time is waiting for them to set, which is perfect for my ADHD ass cause I just forget about them for 30 mins to a couple hours. It’s a skill that has definitely paid off, and I love giving them to everyone who has never tried one because of the price.

Fair warning with Chicago, it may look cheaper but taxes are much higher than Dallas, along with everything in general. Not trying to sway you, it’s a gorgeous city. But, the L has been kinda crappy the past couple years and the winters will be a drastic change taking public transit. There’s tons of job opportunities and plenty of ways to go cheaper here, so I recommend it if you think it would work for you, but plan for it to be more expensive than you think.

Everyone at my work uses Snapchat regularly. I was pretty surprised to hear them all mentioning it as I hadn’t really heard of it in years. They’re between the ages of 22-40s if that changes anything.

A friend I play with in a different campaign has an artificer named “Tony Spark” and he slowly built him an Ironman suit. Dm knew what was going on, rest of his ground didn’t.
