Sorry I had to put it back upright, or it would bother me all day

That's an awesome resource you just whipped out

And that's why it can never go away. I keep mine in a box in a closet, but it's accessed multiple times a year. Hell, I just broke it out the other day for a VGA cable

I have one... somewhere. Probably in a tiny box, mixed in with my random cables

I put my car keys on anything I don't want to forget; one of the best pieces of advice I've learned. Can't leave the house without them, and it immediately triggers my memory of where they are because I never put them anywhere else without purpose

Did he even say "thank you" though?

Well that's just extra unfortunate. Appreciate the video though; I knew of this from other people talking about it, but never looked into it myself

It's an audio processing disorder thing that some have (myself included). Once you get used to subtitles, you kinda don't focus on them unless you weren't sure exactly what they said. Which is often for me. They just kinda become a part of the audio... unless there's a delay, then they're distracting to me and I'll just blast the sound or watch something else

We call them "fair bees"; they are drunk and aggressively non-violent about drinking your daiquiri, as well as rummaging through every trash can. Never been stung by one, but they can be aggravating sometimes cause they won't leave me or my drink alone... like any obnoxious drunk, really

So I can see how you can get to thinking about wasps from "carnival". The "fair bees" definitely remind me of wasps being assholes

We're just planning on moving now, cause we hate this place and there's a multitude of problems: A/C can't keep up with cooling the house, costs a fuck-ton in energy bills, the management company won't fix shit and they're a nightmare to work with. They tried to blame us for rats getting into the attic, when it was a known problem before. Took us 2 months to make them hire pest control, and then acted like we should be grateful for normal-upkeep, and not having rats get inside

The neighborhood is actually nice, but the big-name management company are basically slum lords with a smile. But we had 3 dogs at the time and rental options were few, that had a fenced yard and would accept 3 dogs. 2 of them sadly passed this past year, and as much as I miss them and it wrenched my heart... we realized we could probably find something better now and not need such a large yard (our last dog is old too, and doesn't romp in the yard anymore. He just enjoys little walks now)

The stove is just one of the things I hate about this place and I don't want to fix any of their shite, even for $10. We're just making it work for now
