My missing husband came home, but I just know it isn't him
My husband went missing six months ago. Just... went out to work one day and never came home. It was a horrible shock to the whole neighbourhood, because things like that just didn't happen in our little slice of white-picket-fence suburbia. The police launched an investigation, and the neighbourhood watch sent out search parties, but no one ever found any evidence to indicate what had happened to him. Our families were devastated. Recently, the missing posters have been taken down or papered over. The updates from the police became less frequent and dwindled away. I accepted that, hard as it was to admit, my Rick wasn't coming back.
@arstechnica If someone should post that Altman or some other manager had a small dick, didn't know how to give a proper blow job if their life depended on it, or was a power bottom, that might explain a lot.
@georgetakei Nana would make do. She lived through the Great Depression afterall. Save string, paper bags, and wash/reuse plastic bags was just SOP. What else would you do if you ran out of bagels? Which btw would NEVER happen today.
But not so much my Brit relatives. When I sent a pic of cranberry Stilton from Whole Foods, they were appalled.
@georgetakei I think it's more a case of "extremely not funny". I've never found his comedy to be worth my time. Wouldn't watch his show and definitely won't watch the Netflix movie. The trailer told me everything I needed to know.
Joan Rivers yelled at an audience member with a deaf child for getting up and leaving after she told a joke about deaf people. Talk about not reading the room.
I'll bet he can't get dates he doesn't have to pay for either.
@arstechnica THE END OF OCTOBER, a novel about a pandemic with a 30% mortality came out in April 2020. It was not only very good but somewhat prescient. It predicted an influenza epidemic that would kill many people.
@arstechnica Have the Roku streaming puck with no banking info in my account. Still, it took a couple days of attempting to login to my.roku.com because the Cloudflare front-end didn't work with Brave/Chrome, Opera, or Firefox. Getting their support people to take a bug report was a waste of time. They really need to use my mother's black whip on Cloudflare to fix their anti-bot front end.
@arstechnica We had someone ask if we would install charging for their Tesla. The BoD looked into the wiring and service requirements and it would cost something like $20K to wire a new panel, run conduit to their deeded parking space, and get the local power company to hook it all up. When told they'd have to pay for it out of pocket, that was the last we heard about it.
As more Teslas and Volts show up in the garage, I'm sure more people will want this. There are currently NO electrical outlets in the garage so they can't even plug in a vacuum cleaner when they clean their cars.
