Iām so FUCKING BORED RIGHT NOW!
I chartered a boat off the coast of Phuket. Figured one day in water would be fun.
I have no idea. I couldnāt pronounce them if I did.
Ya, I could have directly behind where I took that photo, but I had a speed boat to myself. So, we could go anywhere.
I believe that photo was Koh Hong. The only island I do recall, because itās super popular and I kept calling it King Kong.

I recently found that setting them a task is a good way to shut them up.
āInteresting. Can you send me a photo of where I should be sitting when I read?ā
āNo, no. Donāt describe it, Iāll never remember. Send a photoā

True, but this time of year is particularly brutal.
I think the locals would start to wonder what kind of kinky shit Iām into if I buy a gallon of Vaseline.

Thatās a strategy I found very successful during my term as our PL association president. Tons of people would approach me with all their ideas about making things better. Iād just ask them to put together a plan and a recommendation regarding how they would execute the idea. I never even had to point out the idea was stupid - if it was. Just requiring work from them smothered most of those in their infancy.
Some ideas came to fruition because they were solid and people did the work.

The number is the part I donāt get. How did the number get to $900k.
Did an exec at the company approach her with that number thinking that she wouldnāt accept less, or did she really say $500k? Nah fuck that, I can do better?
At no point, in any hypothetical mental negotiation, am I turning down contracts worth even half that.
Clearly it pays to have that much self belief I guess.
First she was a meme then she became a rapper tf
It would seem McDonaldās is now the only place that doesnāt give you medium/medium rare burgers by default.
Okay, if you are Gordan friggin Ramsay, you can serve me up a medium rare burger. If youāre just some burger joint, dont shit the bed when I send the burger back.
I have zero idea if your cook knows what heās doing or if he went out for a cigarette and forgot what had been cooking.
I didnāt know whether to post this in the āthings that make you chuckleā or āthings that piss you offā thread, but here goes.
Iām getting over some kind of respiratory, flu-like shit which my gf (who I live with) seems to have caught. She 1) has a chronic illness which may increase the severity of whatever she catches, and 2) works with populations that have the same chronic illness and she works with pregnant women.
My gf brought home surgical masks and said that from now on if I get sick Iām to wear a surgical mask at home. And the kids, too.
Half of me thinks this is a reasonable request because I donāt want her to get sick nor do I want her patients to get sick and the other half of me is thinking, āyou have got to be fāin kidding meā¦ā
And Iām not sure which half Iām going to go with yet.
