My new favourite spice combination: marjoram, thyme and ground green cardamom.

Seasons 4 through 8 of The Simpsons, and I could hear out maybe seasons 3 or 9, but I think safe to say seasons 4 through 8 of The Simpsons will go down as an absolute triumph of television and comedy. Nothing will ever touch it ever again.

Despite being a little different/not quite yet what Simpsons would become, I really enjoyed the first two seasons.

Going back and watching those first 8-9 seasons was kind of a revelation of how good that show had actually been, as I hadn’t really thought much of it based on what was on TV at the time having missed all that.

What made these earlier seasons so gold is that Homer is dumb but a good father. The episode of Lisa being in the beauty pageant is one of many examples where Homer is just a great dad.

The show became dark. Homer tries to hang himself in front of Bart & Lisa, but of course ####s it up. Chief Wiggum drops Ralph on his head as a baby, explaining why he's slow. WTF?

I think that's 1st season isn't it?

What's the deal with Osman Thrift Store? Anyone ever been? The reviews are wild, and the owner's responses even wilder.

That would take me a pack mule and sherpa guide to get there from High River.

From those reviews it sounds like you might need a pack mule and sherpa guide in the basement of that place.

Is it the new Chicken on the Way basement?

I thought that certain fashion/fitness trends had died a long time ago but today I saw someone walking around the +15 wearing those 5 toe shoes. I'm not sure if those are actually still in production but I haven't seen anyone wearing those in more than 15 years.

Sometimes when a problem comes up at work I get so damn stressed, maxed out stress, and I work tirelessly to solve the problem, lose a bunch of sleep, and then once the problem is solved usually in less than 30 hours I feel like such a baby for being so stressed. Like why was that such a big deal, why did I need to be so stressed to be motivated to work on this.

I go to the field once a week and you have to bring:
Steel toes
Nomex coveralls
Nomex parka (in winter)
Hard hat
Sadety glasses and gloves (winter)

I use this ghetto ikea blie shoping bag and the stuff barely fits and i chase all the crap that has fallen out the previous week because its not quite big enough. Do not need fancy but possibly little dividers for the crap? Look homeless with the bag my wife stole from ikea.

Just get the biggest finest cheapest duffle bag from decathlon

You wear the parka like a hobo and then you get a 60-75L duffle for the rest.

Decathlon doesnt have the one I use still but it looks like it has a $35 option.

For good value, I used to look into hockey bags on clearance for something with size and wheels. Lots of options for bags in the $30-80 range in the past, I dunno if it's still the same but they were overlooked vs regular duffels for a while. I often loved the options with wheels.

Annoyingly, my unlabeled car seat back pack works great for a bunch of things too. I looks like I'm lugging around a piece of an L shaped sectional. Idk why that shape works as well as it does vs certain duffels and backpacks.
