I Called In Sick Today

[Essay21 2,385]

Anything for you, four. I’m tumuscent with excitement at Scott Frost. He really is the complete package.

[Ron_Mexico 4,219]

Just to be clear, i’m not actually mad or whatever at Napa

 

I’m sad that I failed him, and failed myself.

Did I mention I bought a robot vacuum? It has made my place so much more hospitable. I didn’t think it could possibly be worth $150 or whatever, but not having a layer of dust and hair on my socks from walking 10 steps is nice.

Donate them and the jacket to a homeless shelter and send me the receipt, and then don’t ever addess me again

 

The shirts are already in our donate box but you can pry that jacket from my cold dead fingers.

I love mine. Just makes the place look that much more tidy and it forces me to actually clean stuff up so the vacuum can actually run.

The party I was at Saturday night...they had a tobacco roller out on the table. I don't know why anybody who smokes a lot doesn't get one of these things. It was like $50 for the injector, $7 for a box of 250 rolled papers w/ filter and then a $10 bag of tobacco. Seems like a no brainer.

[BigDMcGee 3,352]

or you can roll your own, as god intended, without some machine and filter

[Napa_Don 688]

That seems like a lot more work but not that much more enjoyment. But I wouldn't know.

 

 

I've been off work since the 21st and go back tomorrow. My right eye just started twitching hardcore. I'm sure it's just a coincidence.

 

[BigDMcGee 3,352]

I've actually used machine rollers and they aren't any less work than rolling yourself. The reason you get them, is so you have a filter, but rolling filterless cigarettes is super fast once you get the knack of it.

[Essay21 2,385]

I feel terrible. Haven’t been sick like this in what feels like a long time. Might have to call in sick tomorrow.

[BigDMcGee 3,352]

The only thing that will make you feel better, is going to work and getting everyone else sick, while you play hero for coming in, and doing absolutely nothing.

[Essay21 2,385]

Well I went in today so my germs are everywhere already. And I’m sweating profusely and was out of breath walking to the fridge for some OJ. My back hurts like I lifted weights and I can feel the mucus in my left ear. I’m in the danger zone here, D. An ear infection would derail my social life for weeks.

[BigDMcGee 3,352]

I guess it's a good thing that your personality beat the ear infection to the punch, and has been derailing your social life for years.

Yeah, lots of this in my office. Unlimited PTO policy is the only way to avoid this nonsense. It’s a miracle that I’m not already sick.

[Napa Lite 3,278]

I took a sick day two weeks ago when I had what SA has and the next day my boss was like “yeah, I told CFO you sounded like you were actually sick”. Like, no shit dude, you think I’d schedule an interview two days before I go on vacation for 2 weeks?

[SuitedAces21 2,722]

dont let the bastards get you down, nap. but if they do, just keep the words of mookie wilson in mind.

 

[Napa Lite 3,278]

Kesha has a song on her album about not letting the bastards get you down.

[Essay21 2,385]

Kesha must be a hand maids tale fan

I'm glad Mexico and Napa are friends again. I'm back home after 2 weeks in the Promised Land (aka Iowa). My parents house is always relaxing and my in-laws house is always stressful. I'm sad that we always go to the in-laws last. I wish it was the other way around. I'm still off until middle of next week so I'm going to work on the cars tomorrow and Friday and hopefully watch the entirety of the playoffs this weekend.

 

Also, it seems like several of you have been watching a little too much of every news channel on TV if you think these tax cuts are a bad thing. The only bad thing is our currently spending. We need to cut everything, especially defense, but these tax cuts are going to be great for the middle class. Lets remember that 51% of the country doesn't pay any federal income tax at all. (http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2011/jul/08/john-cornyn/john-cornyn-says-51-percent-american-households-pa/) So you guys saying that it hurts poor people are nuts. As for health care, if we can get costs back to pre-Obamacare levels that will be a huge win for poor people. It's a shame the Obamacare drove up prices so high, since that only hurt the middle class, especially the people on the lower 25% of the middle class. But that certainly isn't going to hurt poor people either since true poor people don't pay for healthcare either. (Households with 2 kids can make $49,200 per year and still get food stamps and free healthcare, that number goes up significantly with each additional child)

 

 

 

RaiBlocks (XRB) are going to the moon. You heard it here first.

*Disclaimer: poster bought a significant number of them at a cost-averaged price of $3

 

I don't know anything about this, but I want in. What do I have to do? Teach me.

[Theraflu 1,035]

Lot of fucking snow here today. Had the whole day off. Waiting to hear on tomorrow. I'd guess 15 inch range so far.

[SuitedAces21 2,722]

theraflu, i need you inside me right now. this day quill isn't doing DICK.

 

it would be insane to not close tomorrow after this storm. imagine if someone dies coming in, think of the liability!

[Theraflu 1,035]

Most schools are closed. Majority of roads should be okay by the morning, but it's a lot to clean up. Real problem is the temperature. Looking at a high of 7, low of -10 (not wind chill!) Saturday. That just isn't good for anything.

I'm glad Mexico and Napa are friends again.

We aren’t. He has shit on me for the last time

 

 

I’m not even going to bother unpacking that other load of dogshit you wrote.

[Theraflu 1,035]

Ron, we watch too much CNN.

[Theraflu 1,035]

The only "news" channel I ever watched was Fox, and only after something particularly embarrassing happened, to see how they were/weren't covering it. Since literally every day multiple absurd things happen, I've definitely stopped that practice.

 

All those channels are useless now, and actively doing more harm than good.

[InternetExplorer 2,609]

I can’t do too many days at home purely because my dad constantly watches Fox, reads Drudge, and rants about politics in general. It is consumption with no thought whatsoever. I can’t take it. It’s not a right vs. left issue for me. I would call myself right of center, but that kind of homer behavior is a huge factor in the rampant corruption in our system.
