    Woke up at 6:30 for a 7am sunday meeting what we had been planning for a month. After 15 mins I'm the only one in the room, started calling colleagues to find out that the meeting was canceled days earlier. Feels like i'm the asshole who wakes up people on Sundays.

    We normally enter our house through the rear (cue funny laugh) via a lane that runs past the back of the house. For the second time in a couple of months someone has taken a shit right outside the back gate...and even taken the time to wipe their arse with tissues and leave a shit stained mess everywhere. The only difference...this time it was full on diarrhea...absolutely fucking gross and almost made me puke when I went out this morning.

    My wife tells me that some runners take tissues with them in case of emergency...but fuck me. The total lack of respect for someone else's property is unbelievable.

    What an amazing job they did on Kung Fu (1972) making Carradine look half-Chinese. Even today it holds up under close scrutiny

    Most other examples of this I've seen were just embarassing

    I just spent half an hour etching an expensive thing only to realise the client had made a typo which I absolutely did not see. One of those "you didn't spot the two thes in the sentence, did you?" sort of typos.

    As soon as it was on the table in front of me at a metre width, it was beyond obvious.

    ho hum. I'm interested to see how this gets resolved.

    I think my biological clock is ticking.

    More and more I'm thinking about making a baby with a woman and I'm not even in a relationship.

    I've always had existantial thoughts but lately it's starting to intensify.

    • @mono Not all men. I'm never having one, have never stayed with a woman that wanted one. For me, there are bigger joys in life than children. Much bigger.garbage
    • Not trying to be insulting, but it is disingenuous to suggest that every dude looks a newborn in the eyes and thinks all love.garbage
    • My reaction to my friends that have kids is "you ruined your life for this?". Diff strokes, diff folks. Still annoyed that my brother made me an uncle.garbage
    • Nobody says all men want this. Also you won’t know the joys of fatherhood until you are one. That’s the point.monospaced
    • I don't think most parents would say their lives are ruined by kids.monospaced
    • "you won’t know the joys of fatherhood until you are one" well I'm not fucking doing that just to realize it's shitebabydick
    • I have 100% zero interest in kids. I would not have that magical moment where I look into that thing's eyes and feel the joy of fatherhood. Not my bag.garbage
    • I'd realize that I needed a pack of smokes and be back in a bit. And I don't smoke anymore.garbage

    • You give up some things from your life, but what you gain makes up for it tenfold. I've never smiled so much as I do spending time with my girls.monNom
    • You want to know the meaning of life? Have kids and be a good father to them. That about as pure a definition as you'll find.monNom
    • ^ That's a bit of a sweeping statement. The meaning of life is different for everyone.Continuity
    • If you've got a better definition, I'd love to hear it. This is the best I've found yet. It has harmony over time and space and from the individual to the groupmonNom
    • I think that was his point. There's no singular solution for deeper meaning in life, but also not a knock on your kids.garbage
    • For me the meaning of life is freedom, spontaneity, and a certain sense of wildness that I've seen stripped from so many friends that ended up with kids.garbage
    • If my girlfriend went nuts said "You're going to be a father", I have no idea what my reaction would be. Probably leave her with my savings and kill myself lol.garbage
    • You should definitely not have kids.monNom

    holy fuck... I've yet to touch dairy or meat now for well over 5 months (6 month mark is in 2 weeks)

    I've been contemplating going pescaterian the last 2 months but everytime I'm feeling like I'm ready to grab some sushi or a fillet I just can't seem to do it.

    Also... I'm really missing the simplicity and instant satisfaction of eggs... pango's frittata post is killing me :(

    • no cheat day?pango

    • I'd almost argue and say eggs are vegan if you know where they've come from. They're not fertilised are they?Ianbolton
    • @Ianbolton
      They are produced by animals, like honey, so they are not vegan.
      But vegetables are also produced by animals, humans, so not vegan either.

    • @PonyBoy
      Are you trying to get away with being vegan without saying you're vegan. What animal products do you consume?
      palimpsest
    • Good to hear pony. I’m on a plant based diet too and found the impact of switching comparable to when I quit smoking.thumb_screws
    • Vegetables are not a human byproduct. Eggs are nothing but pure animal cells, not even remotely vegan.monospaced
    • Vegetables are produced by humans, humans are exploited in the production of vegs. One of the main reasons behind veganism is to end animal exploitation.palimpsest

    There's been a lot of frittata talk lately. I love eggs and I'll eat your frittata but it just take too long to make compared to veg and scrambled eggs. Why wait?

    • Why cook when you can just stick a feeding tube in you?
      Cuz I enjoy it.

    How do people get away with selling band shirts on sites like Etsy and RedBubble that are literally copies of official artist merchandise, or that even incorporate copyrighted names, brand imagery, etc?

    What do you do with your father (or mother’s) stuff after they die? The small personal items. The photos. The bits and bobs from their life?

    What to do with it all when you have no space yourself to store it. Will you want to look at it often? Infrequently?

    • Take some for keepsake, and donate the rest. Or garage sale.pango
