I once timed one of their commercial breaks at 8 minutes.

The cartwheels get messed up because they use those electric cart retrievers that push huge numbers at one time. This causes the wheels to scrub and bind as they manipulate the train of carts into the store.

Wobbly carts pre-date the electric caboose, my initial thought was that most other establishments either pay a little more for higher quality or that those stores take those poorer carts out of the rotation while wally world just gives zero farts about the state of their equipment.

What if it’s the other way around?  Because that is what happened.  She was grabbing the Dukes Georgia Sweet Heat bbq sauce that was bogo.  It was a bit lower on the shelves. The other one was the Carolina gold. She has good taste.  Hope I hope she does too.  I’m not sure if that is pertinent information or not.  Just trying to give the most info I can so we all can learn.

I see several possible outcomes;

1)  You get to ride in the back of a police car.
2)  "She'' turns around and you notice the Adam's apple.
3)  Your wife's best friend happens to come around the corner at exactly the wrong second.
4)  She invites you back to her place to taste the sauce.

There's a 75% chance it will not end well for you.

4.  Yeah, man.  I’m really digging that option.
When you use a massive hand sanitizer container and it gets buildup on the tip. You give it a pump and it shoots a rope across the room.

Wow, that sounds dirty.

Haha, I get ya.  If you’re going that route, you forgot the “massive” adjective.  So thanks for your understanding??? Way to go?  Idk where to leave it, lol.  Life is good.  Congrats to you too! I guess we’re in the same boat.  Separate! Separate but same boats!  Like maybe two boats that have a similar hull or such. Two boats on different courses.    I regret posting that now. Having flashbacks of pitch perfect and that heavy blonde British chick.

I guess that answers her question, "Will you call my name?"
My neighbor’s cat has decided to start using my yard as a litter box. I need to find a repellent. I was going to use moth ball flakes but that’s toxic. Anyone have any ideas?

Air soft pistol. Painful yet not deadly.
Okay, now I need some bad advice repellent.

Air soft pistol. Painful yet not deadly.

And almost silent.  You can get off multiple shots without attracting attention.  Gives you plausible deniability.

One or two pumps into a BB gun does the same if you don’t mind standing guard duty all night.

Lure it in with a little catnip bait.

I like this.  Take a reel off of a spare rod, attach it to BB gun cast it over into the neighbors lawn.  Reel it in and point blank.


I say you just take out the Christmas decorations and point the laser lights into your neighbors lawn.  

If you combine the two ideas:
