I got an eight-piece fish family meal and ate that for supper from Friday–Monday. The quantity of sauce packets included with the meal was ridiculous. When I opened the bags, I found 4 tubs of cocktail sauce (I bought no shrimp), 10 packets of malt vinegar, and 14 packets of tartar sauce. Again, I bought eight pieces of fish.
I can't fathom eating reheated LJS... I'm not big on reheated seafood to begin with, let alone that.

I enjoy watching the people who park next to a buggy return. Instead of walking your cart less then maybe 15 feet, you leave it in the spot NEXT to the cart return. How lazy can you be?

I was driving home yesterday, and thanks to the windy conditions there were several traffic lights out. Completely out, not blinking.

People were flying through this intersection at 30 or 40 mph. IF THE LIGHT IS COMPLETELY OUT, YOU TREAT THE INTERSECTION AS A **** STOP SIGN YOU *******.

Having a (good) secret that is so hard to keep, but your job depends on you not saying anything.

apparently it's not that irrational, at least on my wifes side of family, it's actually welcomed. Drives me insane, the bread to pb&j ratio is all screwed up and my brain won't let me get past it.

I always think the people are either crazy or trying to talk to me before I realize that they are using a bluetooth.

You should maybe know that I generally only cook once per week. Typically, on every Sunday I make a large enough batch of something that I can reheat and eat it all week long (usually enough for six meals). And I don’t mean that I make six different meals of different types on Sunday, I mean I make enough of one dish that I can eat it for no less than six days. So eating the same thing for dinner for four days in a row is no problem, as I regularly eat the same thing for dinner six days in a row (I usually buy take-out or cook something else for the seventh day).

It’s actually a great inspiration to be a good cook, because if I make something that sucks, I’m eating it for a week.

Ugh it's ridiculous. If you feel like you need to censor, then use songs that you won't need to censor.

Like that Foxy Shazam song on NHL 13. Why even put that song on there?

That was my main example... they censor "hips and thighs"... what's wrong with that?

I also recall them censoring out "war" in the one Anthrax song on NHL 12. Some of the words they choose to censor are like "Really? You're censoring that?"

haha, if they get you to react to them and then you feel embarrassed, just go up to them and say "HEY, HEY HEY!" and when they tell their friend in their ear, "sorry, sorry, hang on a second" and look to you and say "yes???" say, "oh, i thought you were talking to me." and then listen happily as they walk away from you saying to their friend "i don't know, some annoying person thinking i was talking to them"

When girls that are probably around 200 lbs post side-by-side pictures of attractive women at around 130-140 lbs and stick figures at 90-100 lbs with the caption: "WHICH GIRLS DO YOU THINK ARE HOTTER? SHARE IF YOU TAKE PRIDE IN YOUR BODY." Newsflash: You don't look like the girls in the photo, you are morbidly obese.
