Just stop buying that kind of food if you can’t control your consumption of it. If that’s too extreme for you, buy less of it, and when you do eat some, put one serving in a bowl and eat it out of the bowl. When the serving is gone, no more, no refills, you’re done snacking on that food.
I’m with you on this one. It’s one of the few things I refuse to make from scratch on Thanksgiving. I don’t know how or why, but every time I’ve tried to make them from scratch they get fucked up and turn into an inedible mess. I consider myself a decent cook and so does everyone else I’ve ever cooked for, but I cannot make mashed potatoes from scratch.
It’s like a punch in the face. We bought 2 bottles, passed one around on my wedding night and most people hated it, it’s so strong, we didn’t even finish it. I ended up giving that one to a buddy, and I still have the other bottle, but I haven’t found a reason to crack it open yet.
EDIT: Let’s cool it with the downvotes, dudes. We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something...
Maybe you watched an episode of a TV show that does not exist. Or you thought a secret boss in a video-game. Or even found a loophole in the physics of reality that does not actually work.
I have a reoccurring dream, sometimes an actual fever is involved, sometimes it’s after I’ve just had a vaccine (maybe also a fever then?), but I’m always in some medieval or Victorian-era setting and it’s night time and there’s a full moon and I turn into a werewolf. I then go on a killing spree and kill people I know in the dream (no one I know in real life) in totally brutal ways with teeth and claws, and then the sun comes up and I turn into a human again and I realize what I’ve done and I freak out, and that’s when I wake up sweaty and panting like I’ve just run a marathon. It’s nuts and has happened several times.
We had access to a BK at one of the FOBs I frequented in Iraq and although I’ve never been a huge fast food fan, that stuff was so good. It’s a huge morale booster. I’m sure that sounds simplistic as fuck, but you really come to appreciate the little things when you’re deployed.
Since a lot of women have started to call their female friends “girlfriends”, I have to wonder how women with actual girlfriends have been dealing with this lol
I’ve exhausted things I can sleep to on Netflix, and it’s literally impossible to sleep to things on Prime (so I barely watch anything there; it’s not worth falling asleep to something I like, since I might be punished for it), so I’ve started putting on YouTube in the evenings since it won’t wake me with silence at...
Northernlion – He plays video games, but his banter is very easy-going. I especially like his older videos where it’s just him (not reacting to chat while streaming) rolling with his stream of consciousness while he plays the game and talks about it and life in general.
It’s not too late. Stick to your guns and refuse to go. Make Grandma take the kids herself while you and the wife stay home and enjoy some alone time.
All things considered, I realize you have to pick your battles where in-laws are concerned, so good luck. If you don’t put your foot down with her now though, when will you, if ever?
I can’t really think of any way to make amends to the employees on strike. Maybe go back later with some snacks and water or something, but at the end of the day, if you go to the show, you’re prioritizing your shitty mother-in-law’s lack of compassion and morals over workers making a decent wage/benefits.

She bought the tickets without knowing about the strike. We accepted the gift without knowing about the strike....
