yeah, my brother used to buy that crap and then come over to my house and drink my good stuff. knowing good and well that I would never drink that crap when I stopped by his place. damn that crap beer !
Years ago a friend bought some generic beer. When he got home, he cracked one, took a swig, almost puked and set it on the floor next to the couch. He had a kitten which started licking the can. When he realized, he poured it into the kitten's dish. About ten minutes later the poor thing was staggering about the place. Quite funny until later that evening when the hang over hit. Strange to hear a kitten yowl like it's about to die.
They must use that beer to wash down the lawnmower after use. Then again, I am the type who only drinks a beer about every 2-3 months, so I tend to be the $10 sixpack type. Of course, I quit smoking, but I just was in a quickstop type of store yesterday and saw a pack of Marlboro Light 100's, the kind I used to smoke was selling for $11 a pack. They really don't like the poor people do they?
#10 ... Wife and I stayed at a chain hotel in Pawtucket, Rhode Island (*feels a limerick coming on, but shrugs it off*) that had a single barn door on a track like that for the bathroom and the closet. You could either close off the entrance to the bathroom, or the closet, but not both. Weirdest goddamn arrangement I ever saw. As a lifelong OCD sufferer, I had to fight the nearly irresistible urge to "close the closet door" every time my wife slipped into the loo.

Of course, you're never too old to play with one when there's a kid around and you jerk the string about halfway through the playback... "Listen to the cat: ...jerk... MOOOO!!!" 'Screws the kid up for LIFE!

Ken, just a quick thanks for such good posting that you are continuing while you say that you are slowing down. I have not seen any slowdown yet. You must have a bit of stuff already set up, because you have kept both the quality and the quantity right up there.
3: I instantly lose all respect for anyone who talks up bitcoin. It's like everything else out of your mouth is just invalid after that. 17: "Generative" AI was first conceived in a research paper in 2017. I forget every detail but I do remember wondering what would have happened if that person had chosen even a slightly different path in life. This kind of thing tends to emerge one way or another, so probably it would have happened anyway. 18: My dad used to drink pickle juice. It always gave him the most intense painful bouts of gout.
Two observations: #14 is inaccurate, since the Bud blisters are from swallowing. Had she swallowed, well... and #16 I was introduced to pickle juice as a chaser from shots of Jameson whiskey. Surprisingly smooth, but talk about dehydration; yikes.
AI generally means large language model these days. About twenty years ago, grad students at MIT made one that generates reasonably believable computer science papers. If you make one you like, you better save it, as it will not make it again. https://pdos.csail.mit.edu/archive/scigen/

ReplyDeleteI'm not posting any news, that was a huge time drain.
DeleteThank you. I come here to get away from all the depressing news I see everywhere else.

Yeah, I was getting tired of it too. Seems like it was nothing but death and destruction.

I enjoy a shot of the vinager from the sliced jalapenos jar on occasion

There are a few people that hang out at my local Bar and Grill that use pickle juice as a chaser.
