  • One just started coming through my neighborhood like 2 weeks ago, and there’s a kid a few houses down who seems to always be ready to run out and stop the truck. Takes easily 10+ minutes for the music to fade out. Like, I hate to be a grumpy old man, but that music drives me fucking nuts! I’m on the verge of trying to beat the kid to the truck just so I can bribe the guy to drive away as fast as possible





  • Water gives you heartburn? I’ve never heard of that, that’s odd. I occasionally get heartburn but oddly enough, it usually means I’ve been sitting down too long. Certainly it’s exacerbated by stuff like pizza or too much coffee, but in any case, simply standing up for a few minutes helps me a lot.

    The aughts?? Surely that must have been a particularly ignorant teen, or they were messing with you. High quality phone cameras were far from ubiquitous then. My phone had a camera but I was still buying disposable ones at CVS before going on trips so I could get high quality photos all the way through the aughts. And if that teen is in their mid 30s now, I’m still younger than them…

    I don’t know enough about Fetterman’s past to make a judgement on how his stroke affected him, but you totally could. Brain damage can fundamentally change who you are as a person on every level, from memory to logic, or even spirituality. It can change or entirely destroy your ability to feel empathy, damping some emotions while amping up others. Strokes that fundamentally change personality like that are rare, but certainly not outside the realm of possibility.
