Had a couple beers with a Medic I used to manage.
It’s so great to see how far he has come in his personal and professional life.
Then his fiancé showed up
“Matt, meet Carlin.”
Me: Like the comedian?!
Her: What? It’s Carlynn.
Me: Nevermind. I thought your parents were cool
Watching Ghostbusters with my toddler today. Turns out this guy is called the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.
Stay Puft.
Written right there on his hat.
But that didn’t stop me from confidently saying “State Puff Marshmallow Man” for the last 40 years.
The mostly silence of your
conservative friends, on social media, about the execution of Alex Pretti is hinging upon the late night Fox News opinion shows to tell them what to think.
It’s wild that the DHS argument for killing an American Citizen is pretty much
Ned & Jimbo v. South Park, Colorado (1997)
Wherein you can kill anything provided you yell “It’s coming right for us!”
“There'll be parties for hosting, marshmallows for toasting, and caroling out in the snow!”
We’re pretty busy…
“THERE’LL BE SCARY GHOST STORIES AND TALES OF THE GLORIES OF CHRISTMASES LONG, LONG AGO!”
Back up. Ghost stories? For Christmas?
Last student loan payment.
I overpaid them 50¢.
Then turned off electronic notifications.
I know it’s petty, but I will let them physically send mail to notify me of the credit on my balance for the next 20 years.
All of this is a result of @history channel deciding ice road trucker picker men reality TV was more important than day after day playing a constant stream of reminders of Hitler’s playbook.
Turned 42 today. Reflected on it being 21 years ago that I turned 21. I have very few memories of going out drinking on that night many years ago.
I’m so embarrassed by my behavior back then.
I should have gone harder.
Punched cop.
Shit in a storm drain.
I didn’t lean in.
Call me crazy, but I think every person selected for a cabinet level position should, at a minimum, have the same vetting as new US military service members.
Strip naked. Duck walk.
And lastly a very, very old doctor should shine a flashlight on their butthole.
1400 Saturday, we arrived there with supplies to drop off. Person in charge was a teacher at the school who politely asked we take it elsewhere. Or wait 3hrs to unloaded. She said she had no affiliation. She just needed volunteers to help sort and deliver the things.
I reported the incident to the church leadership and they were stunned. The pastor's wife told me that something similar happened today at the Mitchell High School, where American Red Cross workers arrived, kicked out all the volunteers and took the supplies to "inventory" them.
@kelly_carlin Out of curiosity what was the final outcome of this?
Thankfully not having to deal with my be-flanneled late father showing up in anything except an occasional Chrysler commercial from the plant in New Castle, Indiana in the 80’ or 90’s.
