Personal Top Lists & Rankings

Six highlights from my weekend in Budapest, excluding the beer:

1. Watching a total weirdo grab his first official win in a US curling match. 😍
2. Standing there in a park full of massive, megalomaniac old monuments, tramping through some nasty Midwestern mud, when we find out Slobodan Milošević died. Honestly, couldn't have picked a more fitting setting if I tried.
3. Dinner at a local BBQ joint, focusing on the chili and—later on—some roasted potatoes that were honestly pretty disgusting.
4. Every single time one of those female curlers threw a stone... uh, while her back was turned to us in the stands.
8. That time Pavin let one rip on the subway and everyone pointed the finger at me.
6. When Pavin started smearing mud all over the curling ice, and they blamed me and chased me right out of there.

The two worst keys on a keyboard. Honestly, I’d want to hunt down whoever designed the first keyboard that included them just to have a word...

The #1 thing I’m thankful for this Sunday morning:

- I didn't listen to the wise advice of Mojmir Novakovic and skip the extra serving of beef kebabs at Applebee's late Saturday night.

Man, exactly those two, in that exact order.

One snack just builds up an appetite, I guess...

And man, the dream I had that night. I was in Chicago, in some sketchy dive bar, just asking for water because I was thirsty as hell. But the water looked gross, so I wouldn't touch it. Then I walked outside and shot a random passerby with a gun. After that, I was running through some woods looking for a place to hide the weapon. Still searching for water along the way, since I was dying of thirst. Then I woke up, went to grab some water, and went right back to sleep...

It looks like you might have hit send a little too early! I'm not quite sure what you were aiming to say there, but I'm ready whenever you are. Feel free to drop the full thought whenever you're ready! kaže:
Baking powder has such a distinct scent, doesn't it? But I wonder, does anything actually smell even better? 🤔

I guess they really did a great job selling her on that whole story while she was getting high.

Told you he was the Satan of fast food. It’s not just about making people sin; he makes you regret you didn't sin more. Begone!!! 🙂

@Satan - sleep law
@Guza - you really sold out last night

That whole nasty batch of tiramisu was basically one-quarter rum. So, it definitely wasn't actually made with rum. 😬 😁

on raw food:
you guys are nuts. seriously—I know because I learned the hard way. I finally quit eating raw pasta and all that other raw junk after I made myself so sick a few years back from overdoing the dry noodles that my husband actually wanted to call 911. Like, for real. Since then, I might sneak a bite of some raw sausage bits—I don't touch cooked meat at all—and maybe try some sourdough when I'm making it. Honestly, you’ve gotta actually taste what you're cooking 😬
where's that opossum guy gone? Is he on some kind of hunger strike?

Tajči is being pretty rude—thinks he can just go it alone without us 🙂

Ivan, that's a killer skin 🙏

Haha, Decepticons 😍 😍

Man, you're just asking for trouble—one minute you're fine, and the next, you're getting absolutely wrecked by Optimus Prime's massive hand 🙂

The weekly chart is finally out, and honestly? 🙂 Where did half the music go?! And don't go thinking I've gone soft just because I was listening to Jon Spencer— 😁 that guy didn't even make the cut. 🙂

Michael Newman50... where did you dig up that Stony Sleep track? I remember stumbling upon some PeopleSound compilation via a post—must've been about four years ago... there was this one band on it that really stuck with me, though all I can actually recall is a tiny snippet of a song 🙂
but hey, at least the name stuck in my head

Man, this whole thing just smells fishy to me...

I've been digging through old archives because I was looking for them... but they were already gone, maybe 4 years ago? Or was it closer to 6?

Here’s my take 😬:



The sound is working. It goes o o o.

That damn Audiobook Narrator just killed off the best thread on this entire sub. I’m waiting for someone—anyone—who actually gives a damn about the garbage bands Jack was listening to last week, just so I can see if anyone out there actually cares. 😛
