Oh boy, did you guys move your seats?

This happened to me on a SWA flight from MD to FL or vice versa, I can't remember. Was sitting next to my gf on a half-booked flight, no one within 4 or 5 rows of us. Some retched old bag wanders down and chooses to sit right next to me. We got up and moved after letting her get settled.

Without spoiling anything in John Wick 3, there is a similar occurrence. He sits on the left side of this couch that could seat 3 people, and then another guy sits down right next to him. John Wick stands up and chooses a chair instead.

At the movies, at least they aren't giving people door dings are making it hard to exit their cars. Running errands yesterday I paid particular attention to people who parked on top of others. A very small sample including someone who did it to me when I went to the pharmacy at Walmart. The half dozen or so I all saw do it were all males and appeared to be retirement age.

I remember it happening a lot when I had a classic Chevelle SS that was in cherry condition so I parked well away from store entrances to avoid door dings. Often I would exit a store only to find someone right on top of me and no other cars within 50 yards. The town had a large senior population. I wonder if it is mostly older drivers doing this.

I would have parked next to it as well. What year was it?

Nope...he replied, “Duke”

Fuck this guy
I used to live in So Cal. Laker fans are the worst. They attract a lot of band wagoners when they are doing well. It used to be the further they got in the play-offs the more of those car antenna Laker flags came out. I used to like to screw with them in the sports bars back in the day. You would have people claiming to be life long Laker fans yet they couldn't name any of the past players on the team.

Some times the love of your life decides to do squats right in front of you so you need 41 extra sets.



It's the naked old guy in the locker room with one leg on the bench swinging his old man balls around like a god damn pendulum that kills me.

A lot but working out as feels very good! Plus nearly two years eating salads without dressing or cheese, really makes me feel healthy.

Re: What REALLY grinds your gears?

Going to the MVA to take care of documentation for the federal REAL ID act. Apparently I have to show your social security card and birth certificate just to get a driver’s license. Yeah I feel so much safer now that some random stranger just scanned my birth certificate and social. What a joke

Do you really need your birth certificate to get one? Seems like overkill.

It could have been an up to date passport but alas I have not been out of the country since I have had kids so no passport that I could use.

I've never had a Passport...so I'm in a tough situation.


It really sux for me...I just got a new driver's license last summer and it should be good for 5 years. But because of the Real ID mandate, I am going to have to get a new driver's license before October of next year.
