The last post is the WINNER!

On the road to spoilage!

It sure surprised me at how quick I became comfortable with my new position. I still don't drink coffee or go to coffee shops, I'm still getting myself used to the idea that I don't need to rely Speedway reward points for gas or food anymore, and spending money often still feels impulsive and that I shouldn't, even when everything in my basket is on the list. But I'm acquiring a wardrobe that I like (still black, but more Goth, Cyber-Goth/Industrial, and less metal-head), checking my bank account doesn't fill me with a sense of dread anymore, and I'm even getting better quality parts for my car and still saving tons by doing repairs myself. And having money to go do stuff is nice, except there is an abysmal lack of stuff to go do around here.
It's amazing at how much easier life in general becomes when you start to float above the poverty line, and just how easy it is to get used to and comfortable to such changes. Used stuff on Amazon and Ebay? Pffft!

That's gross.....never did like Krispy Kreme donuts.... they are basically a Dunkin type donut, which is already way to sweet.... made sweeter...which is... to me.... not at all enjoyable

HEATHEN!!!! How dare you compare those soft fluffy bites of Heaven to those glorified grocery store donuts?

 

[Shadow Wolf]

so you have not defeated my fried eggs, toast and banana....

It shall have to come down to the cooking methods and ingredients. Now if you care, to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you. I bet my spatula of gold against your soul because I think my breakfast is better than yours.

Used stuff on Amazon and Ebay? Pffft!

Buying used makes it easier to justify what you want.
Things are so much more affordable, eg....
- 60 ton Hydrawedge jack
- Snap-On wrenches
- Dahon folding bicycle
- The list goes on & on

 

[beenherebeforeagain]

no lists were used in the making of this win

 

[Revoltingest]

No listing was done during this win.

No listing was done during this win.

You're a Scot, so after you've eaten your haggis and bacon, and drunk some of the liquor known as "Scotch," I'm pretty sure you list to one side or the other...and maybe both at the same time...

Winning with an attitude of...I just don't bloody care

 

[Revoltingest]

You're a Scot, so after you've eaten your haggis and bacon, and drunk some of the liquor known as "Scotch," I'm pretty sure you list to one side or the other...and maybe both at the same time...

For winning purposes, I balance equal portions of haggis & scotch.
Balance precludes listing.

 

[Shadow Wolf]

And now everyone is restored to their default position of lose.

still winning...still don't bloody care

 

[Shadow Wolf]

still winning...still don't bloody care

By showing up you have a funny way of showing you don't care.

 

[beenherebeforeagain]

no cares were given in the making of this win, but still I have courage, persevere...

"Courage"

There came a giant to my door,
A giant big and strong.
His arms were thirty inches thick,
His legs were twelve yards long.

He scowled, he frowned,
He shook the ground,
I trembled through and through.
And then I looked him in the face,
And said, "Who cares for you?"

And he hit me.

"Perseverance"

Somebody said it couldn't be done,
But he with a chuckle replied,
"Maybe it couldn't, but I will be one,
Who'll never say 'No!' 'til I've tried."

So he buckled right in,
With a trace of a grin
On his face, if he worried he hid it.
And he tackled the thing that couldn't be done,

And he couldn't do it.

I'm still here except when I'm not.

I am always here. I am never not where I am. By your own admission, you are not always here.. Proof of Solipsism.

 

[Shadow Wolf]

I'm still here except when I'm not.

Yes, you are. That "real life" thingy you think you do, that is just the Matrix, and really, when you think you're not here, you just shift into drone mode and float around here for awhile like a floating zombie thingy.

They asked if I wanted the red pill or the blue pill. I took the purple pill. I get to see both sides of reality.

Take the bacon instead.
(It's a better reality.)

I'm actually using bacon myself today with dinner, to sprinkle bacon bits (real bacon and not that crunchy plastic crap) over the twice baked potatoes.

Still don't bloody care
