They don’t pronounce anything right and are always drunk on cheap beer. Wait a sec...what part of Hilliard are you from? Maybe you’re my daddy in law!!!! Hi dad! I’ll even accept St George Georgia, holy cow that place... if you ever have the chance to stop or visit, I suggest you don’t.

Publix is becoming quite a trickster. Since people stopped picking things up and replacing them for a different one, I noticed the ground beef was all 1.5lbs and larger. Before it was pretty much a pound. I wanted to get steaks. I like ribeyes. Not on sale and holy cow, 2+ lbs (pack of two) only to be found on top of everything else. We can’t eat one pound steaks anymore. But, I touched it! Pretty clever on their part. And are people stocking up on ketchup? Where’s the ketchup?

Let me know if you are interested.
Looking to troll? Don't bother, we supply our own.

Nextdoor.com
Does anybody use that? What started out as a theoretically decent tool has gone the way of most 'social media'. There's just so much crap and flat-out stupid questions that I rarely even read the notifications anymore. ![]()
For the first time in 6 weeks I had a dinner other than something we cooked at home. Doordashed hurricanes. Food was cold, fries were soggy. Not a problem. I fully expected that. Not a big deal whatsoever. It’s how it goes. for 3 meals and an app, plus tip was 80 bucks. Ok, not ideal, but I’m hiring a third person to pick it up and deliver. I can understand that. The issue, Hurricanes meals have somehow gotten ridiculously small. I’ll give you 80 for what we had before, but for this... only thing I can think is they’re pinching to save/make up money lost. Not quite sure how I feel about that. Live and learn I suppose.
Saturday we’ll try our favorite sushi place for the ole anniversary. It’s pick up so I’m sure that’ll go better. Hopefully we get the normal order/quantity we usually get. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

Everyone was checking in and sharing what was going on around town. Outside of that and the occasional missing pet it's quiet.

Person 1 asks, "Does anyone have a good plumber?" and person 2 responds, "Hey, my plumber [name of plumber] is great." I'm sure they arranged that little advertisement between them. And then there's the complaining. "People use too many chemicals on their lawns." And then the back and forth about chemicals on lawns. And people chime in who don't even live in the neighborhood. Nextdoor.com has all the value of a piece of junk mail.
I figure since I was being tracked everywhere, and I was being shown ads for everything I looked at, what would I like to see in those ads? So I went to the Victoria's Secret website, hoping the trackers would pick that up and I would now be shown ads with lots of hot supermodels in scanty clothing. So what am I getting now? Ads for bras and panties for plus size women. Something went wrong with this scheme somewhere.

Probably cross referenced Victoria's Secret and your BBW porn searches and voila! ![]() "What do I know of cultured ways, the gilt, the craft and the lie? I, who was born in a naked land and bred in the open sky. The subtle tongue, the sophist guile, they fail when the broadswords sing; Rush in and die, dogs - I was a man before I was a king."
