It'll take a lot more than a mom insult to get this chill banter up to nuclear. Your mom though, damn she big.

Also the best quality carts. Rare that you get the ####ty one with the one square wheel or the horrible squeak.

The Ikea ones are fun to ride with those spinny wheels and you can sort of drift in them. If I go with my boys we each grab one to boot around behind.

Gawd its depressing going to work in the dark and coming home in the dark. I probably should not drive in the dark due to the lasik surgery that was a mistake to do 15 years ago.

This is how we know you're a decent person...you would sensually rub a gas hose against your car...you could with violence and anger, but instead you chose love...

Also when children get into the car they should have their hands zip-tied behind their backs.

Something must be in the air today, can't even talk about a giant hose without it turning sexy.

You can get dense memory foam but those are never comfortable in my experience (and I've tried a dozen at least at this point) and it seems seems like almost everything else, regardless of whether it's labeled as "firm", is just airy floofy crap. Can't live with it.
Have you tried using something like a microwaveable bean bag? Basically a pillow stuffed with grains or tea leaves that can be dense, weighty, contour, while being whatever shape you want?

The other option is maybe a wool pillow? But no idea if those are considered "fluffy".

I occasionally use a magic bag as a pillow and it works reasonably well, but not fully there, so I'm still looking. Bonus is that it can be warmed.

I’d be happy if I could separate my head from my body for sleep. Just put in some jar for the night.

Hotels that only give you body wash. Fak off with this crap and give me a bar soap. Guess I’ll be using the little hand soap that’s the size of a toonie again.

Two reasons why I hate the supermarket.

1) I even go out of my way to seek a cart in the parking lot that looks like it's in good condition only to be left extremely disappointed when I roll into the Superstore and the think is squeaking like mad while everyone else has a nice quiet cart. It's like I'm a magnet for loud carts.

2) No matter how much I strategize which checkout line will go faster I always get the line with unexpected price checks, food that doesn't have a code, price discrepancies, price checkers that have to question every item scanned, etc where I stand in frustration while the other line I considered would have already moved me out of the store.

I really, really hate going to the grocery store.

That creme they give makes your hands wayyyy drier, just garbage and a room is quite possibly the direst place on earth. Maybe I should just put the shower on all night. I'd actually bring humidifiers when I was doing kids hockey tournament circuit.

$9 a month for unlimited delivery from superstore is amazing. Haven’t gone to there in person in forever. Just has to be minimum $35 order.

Playing men's league hockey a couple of days ago and I took a pass awkwardly which led to me leaning into the boards a little. Unfortunately this section of the boards was the bench gate and said gate wasn't latched properly. I ended up hitting the inside of the gate with my trap/neck so I didn't break my collarbone. I blacked out for 5s or so and now have a ####ty minor concussion. I took a day off but now I'm just staring at these screens space cadeting around. RGMG that if I didn't have bad luck I wouldn't have any. And Concussions. Concussions GMG.

There is an app called GasBuddy that is great. It will tell you the teal time price of gas at every station. It is crowd sourced for the prices so it's always up to date. Costco is always the cheapest, sometimes by a bit sometimes by a lot. Right now for regular Costco Z(Buffalo Run) is 114.9, Tsuut'ina 116.9 and most others are 123.9.

My car has a 51 liter tank. So if it's bone dry I would save $4.60 by going to Costco over a gas station that is near me, convenient and where I don't need to wait in line.
