I spend too much time on here. Occasionally I make a witty comment. Sometimes my comments aren't so witty. C'est la vie.

You only get one chance, but you took it.

Yup. Never gets easier, so you might as well start this week.

Knowing it is one thing. Being able put pull it out on the spot while drinking, something else entirely.

And letting her know that you kept your silence all these years to preserve her joy. Save the revelation for her twilight years.

The smiles and laughs really tell the story. Heartwarming. +1

I believe there is already some case law that differentiates between spicy food (potentially edible, just a taste preference) and food which has been altered to provide harm (poisoned, laxative in the brownies, etc)

Yeah, but does your sandwich need laxatives? Or your brownies? That's doctored food as opposed to personal spice choice. One is actionable. One is delicious.

Chewable GasX my friend. The best find of my 40's. By getting rid of the big bubbles and turning them into little bubbles, everything just moves. Sometimes with vigor! But the pain swiftly subsides, making every toot a happy toot!

I've known some cosplayers that specifically avoid caffeine, alcohol, and other bladder irritants / diuretics before a particularly taxing costume just to maximize bladder time. They'll go light on liquid before donning the complex bits and do a safety pee just before the "point of no return" with a particular getup. No forced dehydration, but pee management is a thing!

True. As did "The Bride". A pre-teen me always tuned into it whenever they showed during the day on HBO. At least the first 20 minutes or so...

Even so. I can't think of too many films of that era and that genre weren't R rated. if they were even rated at all...

How is that rated PG?

Second date was pretty good, but the third lost a certain... something. That that was before the injuries.

It's a pretty good one when dealing with stuff from the cold war or WW2. Savannah River has been pretty good about not generating unnecessary waste for about 30 years now.

Songs that live rent free in my head...

One of my favorite song intros of all time was when Type O was opening for Queensryche and with no context whatsoever Peter spits out the following in a chipper and upbeat voice: "And here's the song that got us excommunicated from the Catholic Church! 1, 2, 3, 4!"

50 kg of 3% enriched uranium isn't enough to do anything with. Need orders of magnitude more for a critical event. That wouldn't even be enough material for a decent dirty bomb as unprocessed uranium doesn't have that high of a specific activity. That's barely a tenth of a Curie. Not saying it couldn't have been stolen, but not worth the bother.

Yeah, we know. Most of us aren't real happy about it, but we get to bear the collective shame due to a sadly high percentage of us being fuckwits. Cheers.

In general, I don't think large corporations / landlords are lobbying for restrictive zoning so much as local forces doing the NIMBY-ing. If anything, large development corporations are interested in less restrictive zoning so they can make more money developing multi-unit properties where infill has already occurred. So much more money in displacing and gentrifying than in preventing further development.

That's not Henry Cavill, the old Superman. That's the new Superman, David Corenswet. Who is apparently also a huge geek.
