I got called “Mr. Left Face” once.

No ragrets.

To just invest in broad index funds instead of trying to play the stock market.

Obviously the ska.

Drova: Forsaken Kin, very fun 2D RPG in the Gothic mold…i.e., you start off weak and will get your ass kicked by rats and wasps, getting your first set of real armor takes hours and feels like a major power-up, multiple factions you can join that are deeper than “good guy vs bad guy.” Small development team (I think it’s just 6 German dudes) but they’re actively engaged and quick with patches.

Mermaids aren’t furry.

Want to make a “firing range” pun, but nothing’s coming to me…leaving this as a placeholder in case inspiration strikes later.

I was planning to join the military after high school. It was a 3 hour drive to the closest MEPS (military entrance processing station), so the local recruiters only made the trip out there once a week. I already had my date set when another guy dropped out, so my recruiter asked if I was interested in going a week earlier. I said absolutely, because I was dead et on being in the Army, so what difference did one more week make?

So that’s how I enlisted on Sept 5th, 2001…

I don’t remember specifically, but it would have been something on my uncle’s Atari 2600 in the late '80s…probably Dig Dug or Pitfall.

Ok, boomer.

That’s the claque, baby.

That was her rejoinder!

My main takeaway from that article is that Nautico Crepusculo would be a good album title.

I got my vasectomy done through Planned Parenthood. I had to go in for a screening first where they asked questions like, “Are you sure you want to do this?” and I said yeah and they said, “Really sure?” and I said yeah, so they said “OK cool, come back in two weeks and we’ll snip snip.”

Very easy process, highly recommend.

As long as you’re convicted of a crime.

Too goddamn early in the day for them to get my hopes up like that. Probably just meant Trump either forgot or lied about when his birthday is.

Trusting the home inspector that said the roof wouldn’t need to be replaced for at least another couple years.

Not trying to dox myself, but I also live in Missouri and have a sailboat on Carlyle Lake in IL (about an hour from St. Louis). If you’re anywhere in the area, our sailing club is doing our annual Try Sailing Day on June 22nd. Free rides on a variety of different small sailboats and catamarans in exchange for a gentle sales pitch to sign up as an associate member, take some lessons, and be able to rent out any of the club’s fleet boats or volunteer to crew for someone on the Sunday buoy racing circuit.

Do you live in an area where you can go sailing?
