Your pointless thoughts & observations

I would not want to meet an ostrich irl, much less a cassowary.

Dinos never truly went extinct, as far as I'm concerned. Merely evolved.

deleted my last post - clearly I wasn't following this story very closely, the sub imploded. not sure whether to feel "better" about that than what I thought previously or not. gonna repeat my ugh at everything, though.

I follow venetian snares on facebook and he seems like a really nice dude...

It seems debit and credit cards are named from the bank’s perspective rather than the consumer’s. 

there's a crow near my shop that sounds like a really angry monkey

I remember in the '80s / '90s young-ish kids would travel by themselves places. like when I was 10, I flew on an airplane to visit a relative by myself. that's back when you could still go to the gate without a ticket. my friend was telling me how when he was 10, him and his 8 year old brother would travel on the bus by themselves to another city to visit relatives. this can't happen anymore here in the US. the kids flying on plane thing obviously can't happen anymore because of security policies enacted thanks to 9/11. I curiously checked Greyhound's website, and says you have to be 16 to travel alone on the bus. 

My 20th anniversary high school reunion is in 2.5 days. Still thinking about going, but I'm worried it's gonna end up being awkward or cringe.

No way in hell I'd ever go to a reunion lol

Just people bragging about their jobs and how many kids they have… I would never!

fwiw I went to mine, and wasn't that bad. it's sorta a trip actually to be in a room where you know the names of so many people. most of it is just alcohol fueled harmless small talk. 

I've already decided that I'm just gonna dip out early if I'm not feeling it. I'll probably be the only one there who doesn't have kids nor has ever been married. I just hope it doesn't end up being some kind of quasi-Victorian bullshit where I get asked what I do for a living, my salary, etc and get lowkey judged for it.

Good call on Hail to the Thief BTW. I still love Backdrifts.

No!! lol just saxx! https://www.saxxunderwear.ca/products/sxpp2q_sbi?nosto_source=cmp&nosto=1379379305

They’re the only brand I’ve found that keep these giant walnuts tucked away so I don’t chafe all the time lol. They used to be like $20 a pair.

But I find myself wondering what mormon underwear might be

Nice! Was hoping you’d go and it wouldn’t be too bad. Man mine is coming up in… 3 or 4 years now?

Did you run into anyone you might stay connected with or reconnect with a bit?
