Look, it's not "all you can eat." It's "all you can eat."

"You" is not the subject noun, it's "all." You refers to the group of people. The buffet is open to the public, and any paying member of the public may eat. Your honor, the phrase has been misinterpreted all along. It was never about allowing any one person to eat until they no longer can, but about allowing any paying customer to eat the food offered at the buffet.

I rest my case.

At what point is a van so big that it's a bus?

Whoa, that's a double nostalgia, all the way. Oh my god, whooo!!

Thank you! :)

My doctor even asked what my secret was. I said I cut down on the boredom eating. Now I just boredom "tend to shit around the house." Seriously, I might clean or cut the lawn wrench on the cars to kill time. It feels good to get moving again.

I have the opposite problem. I think about food nearly all the time. It's what got me up to 295 lbs.

I'm down to 260 today. Still got a long way to go, but I'm getting there. Getting medicated makes me feel so much more in control of my impulses. One of them being the impulse to eat all the time. Now, I don't feel hungry nearly as often, and if I think about food, I consider whether I feel hungry, and if I don't, I don't eat.

"Han! The odds of avoiding bankruptcy are 4:1!"

"Never tell me the o-oh. Actually, that's not bad. Yeah, no, let's keep going."

 

Vans and minivans do everything trucks and SUVs do, and they do it better. Every time. No exception. SUVs and crossovers are just worse minivans for people who think they're too cool to drive a minivan.

And those outside of North America largely need not apply. I wish we could just have a robust public transit system here, but apparently, public transit is antithetical to muh freedum or something. Or so they tell me.

And that's not even getting into the point the post makes, which is that these monstrosities are getting bigger and more dangerous to pedestrians, yet our governments do nothing to stop it.

"What's wrong, Doc?"

"Here's your problem. She doesn't have any toppings. No relish. No chili. Nothing. It's no surprise she didn't last a minute in Flavortown."

"Damn it! I've been a fool!"

Once all of the fuller bottles are depleted, we're gonna see some exponential growth in the bottle population.

If I don't have a long enough stretch of time to do it all at once, I ain't starting it.

But seriously, getting medicated has done wonders for being able to start multi-day projects. I'm learning VBA right now because I want to automate some of my processes at work. I'm finally cool with starting something I can't finish today. Generally, I want my code to do some fairly specific and complex things. So I'm happy to spend a few hours tweaking a block to make it do exactly what I want, and it feels so good when it works as expected. But before getting on meds? Nah, I wouldn't even entertain the idea because I wouldn't know where to start. Medicine helps me draw up an outline of what I want to do with my code, then achieve those tasks bit by bit.

And that's applied across everything I do. It's okay to not finish today. But it's important to start.

Wait until you try bacon grease. Y'all are in for a real treat.

Public transit really brings together all kinds of people. It breaks down barriers and allows people from a variety of backgrounds to mingle.

This is the kind of community unity every place needs. ♥️

This is a real thing I do. It feels weird if the weight of the carton isn't evenly balanced when I take it from the fridge.

This was my wife's idea. I stole it. She's way funnier than me.
