We had talked briefly a few times prior to my approaching her.
So it wasn’t completely out of the blue. I feel like this part is pretty critical. You had established yourself in a positive way before making the ask. If your first-ever interaction with her had been asking her out on a date, I doubt it would have gone as well.
Really cheap, off-brand chocolate
Who in 2024 is still buying Palmer’s? How does this brand still exist?
Brain Damage. I definitely should not have seen that movie at whatever age I was.
I host a podcast called Almost Plausible where a couple of friends join me to create movie plots based on ordinary objects. For example, some of our episodes are paper bag, axe, and toilet brush.
You can find it wherever you listen to podcasts, or on the Almost Plausible website.
A friend’s dad feels so strongly about this that he has cafeteria style trays so each food item can have its own little area walled off from everything else.
I sometimes use bacon fat to make stove top popcorn. It’s so tasty!
The $3,000 is a protection plan, kind of like insurance. So if you use that lock and your bike is stolen, they’ll give you up to $3,000 to replace it. I don’t see a price listed for the lock itself.

Whenever I’m talking with someone about my podcast and they ask, “can I find it on Spotify?” a little part of me dies.
Like, yes it’s available on Spotify, because it’s available everywhere. But I strongly dislike what Spotify tried to do to podcasting, and there are much better apps out there.
In truth, mine isn’t great either. It’s not all shaky and squiggly like these folks, though, just sloppy.
Why do all SovCits have the worst handwriting?
What happens when the vehicle reaches its end of life? Does the title get transferred to the company that disposes of it?
It would be especially interesting to see how his viewpoint changes over the course that time frame.
About 30-some years ago I borrowed a book of facts from the library, and the two I remember are:
I have no idea if they’re true, but they’re burned into my brain.
Almost Plausible is a podcast where three friends make up stories, usually in the form of a movie plot, where something unexpected takes a central or critical role in the story. For example, how would you make a movie about a pillow? Or a ceiling fan? Or a toilet brush? That’s exactly what we try to figure out on the show!
Each episode starts with a brief pitch session, where we take turns sharing the ideas we’ve come up with for each episode’s topic. After we’ve heard all the pitches, we pick one, develop it, and hopefully come up with a story that’s at least almost plausible.
Disclaimer: This is my own podcast.
I saw a guy do this when I was a kid.
Spot Shot can work wonders, but definitely read the instructions. It’s been awhile since I’ve had to use it, but I recall thinking its use is not intuitive (not complicated, just not what I would have assumed).
I also have a Little Green Machine from Bissell, which has been so fucking useful. I generally use that instead of Spot Shot, and on rare occasions, the two in tandem. Again, be sure to read the instructions and clean the machine out properly after every use so it doesn’t get gross.
Ah, that makes sense. Thanks!
I’m curious to know why, can you explain or point to an article?
It’s been awhile since I’ve seen it, but IIRC, the film isn’t saying the Christian Jesus we all know about is immortal, but that this character in the film who is immortal (and a white dude, BTW) was assumed to be the son of God because people 2,000 years ago found out he was immortal and had no other explanation.
ETA: Looks like I remembered reasonably well. Here’s the scene in question: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bXtdr5BI74
