Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Todd, your office sounds straight out of Dilbert.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

sj, yeah - if I'm dropping that kind of money on a toaster, it's going to be a Dualit combi: I know they're fully repairable.

Used one on eBay! [link]

But I like the pretty colors of the smeg!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Wow, Toddson. I guess getting up and moving frequently is what we are all supposed to be doing...the electrical outlet situation sounds maddening

I am really enjoying typing a whole bunch of 2s on everything I am dating today (and I date all the files I save, so that's a lot of 2s!). I think I may have to get tacos later

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

You *can* get into the turret, from the attic, if you clamber over a beam; you just can't get *up* into it from below.

See now, I didn't know that. That's what I get for missing the third tour of the place while isolating with Covid.

We're waiting for ltc's Covid test results to come in so that she can hopefully go to her grandparents house for a couple of days. The home test was negative and the doctor who saw her yesterday said it sounds like an asthma flare up but wanted to run a PCR anyway. I was not planning on parenting all day today.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

That's not bad, actually - even if I did have to buy the sandwich cage, I wouldn't be that far in on parts. Hmmmm . . . .

But I like the pretty colors of the smeg!

Oh, believe me, I understand! The fridge I want for my fantasy cottage is already a silly number costwise, and with a custom color, it's "win the lottery" money. But it's reeeeeeeally pretty.

Oh, that might be even better

Show me this Fantasy Fridge, por favor!

Right?
