I live in Colorado, so generally some unusual form of weed for those who enjoy that. A dispensary near me has THC chocolate truffles, those usually go over well.
So I got my first ever Swiss Army Knife 2 months ago. It’s a Victorinox Huntsman with 14 tools (the one with the saw). I have not used it extensively yet, but I wipe it clean every time I use it....
I’ve had mine for about 35 years and done minimal maintenance. I’m about to send it to Victronox for a “spa visit” because the red casing got cracked. They will do a full cleaning and overhaul (and repair) on it for a very reasonable price. They really do stand behind their work.
Apple juice is not cider though. Apple juice is clear and flat. Cider (alcoholic) is clear and bubbly. Cider (nonalcoholic) is brown and served hot or cold and spiced or unspiced.
Any of these can be made with other fruit, but apple is the most common.
I found someone in our user database with the name “Deekshita Anusri”. I then imagined the poor soul at the border who had to read that name in front of the person named so....
First day in the dorms at college I see a name tag next to a door that says “Shithead” and thought what a mean joke to play! Turns out her name was shi-thee-ad. Rest of the year she was Thea.
Also worked with a woman named “Noname” (no-nam-ay) and apparently that gave her all sorts of trouble on official forms.
Sophee Langerman was on her way to a bicycle safety rally in Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood in June when a car turning right rolled through a red light and slammed into her bike, which she was walking off the curb and into the crosswalk....
I’m a week late on rent due, I only paid half, I had to call all my credit card companies and utilities to tell them what’s going on. And now my check engine light turned on because the bastard is misfiring. My wife lost her dad which fucked us both up due to missing a ton of work, and I don’t know what to do. I’m tired...
I know this is a joke/meme, but I sincerely think of the Roman Empire a surprising amount of times. I find myself obsessing over how Roman citizens were living just as complex lives as we are today, or about Marcus Aurelius’ life and philosophy, or about how the Republic fell and became a totalitarian state.
I’m in the middle of sending out applications and considering all the things I should refresh on. Does anyone have some good resources or practices they run through to get refreshed or otherwise prepared for technical and skill/personal interviews?...
Mine is playing AOE2 in easiest (or standard if I want a bit of challenge) mode against 3 bots. I just build my economy, wall up (and laugh at the enemy soldiers attacking my walls in vain), reach imperial age and attack once my army reaches the population limit. I also send 104 in the chat so they don’t surrender and I can...
In fact, according to Reddit users, the protests have caused a major brain drain on the site. The question is: can you prove it? And the answer is: well, sort of, yes.
During COVID I couldn’t find any distilled water to make cocktail pods (which are already pretty extra in their own right), so I bought an alembic still and learned how to use it to distill water, which led me to figure out how to rig it up with a hot plate, food grade tubes, fish tank pump, and igloo cooler so I could run it in an out of the way spot in my house. It takes days to make a few gallons…but the cocktail pods came out great and now I’m slightly closer to being a survivalist! (My smartass friends: Why didn’t you just make Jell-O shots?)
I got mine at a beer brewing supply store in Denver. I would guess you could find something similar online. Be sure to wash them well the first time. My first couple gallons of water through them tasted a bit “rubbery.”
For me, personally, It would be Snatch. It’s such a great movie that I could watch again and again. So many interesting characters and a unique style that sets it apart from so many other movies. There’s just that extra something in that movie...
