Until Niantic lets you hit up Pokestops on the go again, I have very little interest in it. I live in the suburbs, there's one Pokestop near me. Everything else would require I either go on an extended hike, or take the bus downtown. Given that I live in Florida and its fucking 82 degrees in December... an extended hike through the hottest part of the day is not going to happen. Which means no Pokestops, which means no Pokeballs.

Unfortunately, there were enough potential lawsuits due to people playing while driving that they had to disable it even with the GoPlus.

Because, no, it's not enough that it's already freakin' illegal to use your phone while driving in most states, no. They had to put it on the company's shoulders.

So people who take the bus everywhere (like me) get screwed over, too.

SIGH Yet again, assholes that can't put their phones down ruin it for everyone. THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS!

Fatkinis?!? This is a THING?! Jesus Christ... yet again, the fashion world reminds me why even in 90+ degree weather with 100% humidity, I will be wearing jeans and a tshirt.

@Ganymede Fatkini Its basically what it sounds like. A bikini for plus sized women.

@Admiral That. That SO MUCH. I'm female, and yeah, I'm carrying around a few extra pounds. Sue me, its difficult to always make healthy choices while being a working mom that has to come home and immediately cook dinner for two very disparate kids. We do what we can and try to stick to making mostly healthy dinners. I don't exercise very much, and that's on me. But I'm not going to run around in skintight clothes and demanding everyone praise me for being chubby. That's just stupid.

@Admiral Conversely, try being a woman and having a body that doesn't conform to the presets. I have a short torso, but long enough legs that petite sizes look like Urkel pants on me. Regular sizes are just long enough to leave about half an inch of excess hem, however. There is no in between. No 'by inch' inseams. There's petite, regular, and long. If you do not fit in one of those three... well....

And don't even get me started on how a size 8 differs in actual size based on the where the pants sit on the waist.

@Three-Eyed-Crow This sort of thing is why I tend to do my shopping at Goodwill or Salvation Army. They're the only places I can reliably find bootcut and flare-leg jeans.

@Olsson It is if sewing is not something you like or even tolerate well. To this day, I can't sew a straight line without it looking like some Frankenstein-ish hatchet job. Thankfully, getting things hemmed is pretty damn cheap. I still generally just walk off the excess length though.

That awkward moment in life when you realize you don't really know someone. In this case, your spouse.

You are almost 35 years old...HOW HAVE YOU NEVER HEARD OF CYPRESS HILL!?!?!?!?

TBF to your wife... she IS a communist. They don't play Cypress Hill in Commieland.

@Faceless said in RL Anger:

Update: she thought Jump Around was by Cypress Hill.

I'm guessing she doesn't know the lyrics? XD

Peeve: RAIN ON MY RENFEST DAY! >:/

Damn it... I -knew- that was going to happen.

Got the feedback on my 'work so far' today and one of the things my instructor wants me to do is to replace my intro with 'Welcome to my slice of the web.'

Don't forget the animated construction gif at the bottom with the visitor counter!

Also, isn't that a mixed metaphor? You don't slice webs. Shouldn't it be something like "my strand of the web" or something?

Don't judge them! You don't know their life! Maybe they slice webs all the time! I bet Wolverine slices webs.

I adore Ark, and will happily kick a couple bucks towards shared space.

When your job requires you to transcribe a conversation, verbatim, and one jackass decides this is a great time to hold a conversation on a bluetooth, while driving with the windows open, while eating potato chips, slurping a soda, and using the most Ebonics-laden Atlanta accent I've heard in years. Fuck you, anonymous asshole guy. FUCK. YOU. The person you are talking to is deaf or hard of hearing, motherfucker. Stop making my job as hard as fucking possible!!!

One of my cats had a dental appointment yesterday. Poor kitty had three teeth pulled, including both top canines. He was loopy all day yesterday after coming home. And now the other cat refuses to acknowledge him as the same cat. She hisses and growls at him anytime he comes within ten feet. Not a HUGE deal... except at 2am when I'm trying to sleep. >.>

Do you need teepee, Oh Great Cornholio?

I use ^_^ a lot. I got tired of the usual smilies, so I started using that one.
