Exploding Marker bindings are not a joke.
good to hear it man. glad the insurance worked out.
Shit that annoys me:
The sheer volume of patients and people in general that are driving around on prescription opiates.
More USPS love: ordered several bottles of cognac from France in November. No change to the tracking number since the end of November, when it says it cleared customs and was handed to USPS. When I try to fill out a service request on USPS, I get an error message "There was a problem submitting your Service Request. Please try again later." French shipper is shrugging and spreading their hands in Gallic fashion "But m'sieur, what can I do? It is your own postal service, is it not?"
Grr, it's enough to make me start drinking some local tipple
And BC, glad to hear you're making good progress with your eye injury. I had a somewhat similar freak injury 20ish years ago (opened a beer bottle on a fence post, the cap shot off into my eye) and made a full recovery; sounds like your outcome is going to be similar, which is great.
Ban worthy.
Re USPS and other shippers--the sender is the one responsible for the package until it's in your hands, the one who should be dealing with shipper and the one who owes you if you don't get the package. Although I don't know how that would work if the sender is in another country. Re the cognac--I believe that's a first world problem. France is still in the first world, oui?
Glad to hear you are on the road to recovery, BC.
And wear those safety glasses, folks!
Over $200/night for a Fairfield Inn in Glens Falls, NY
Better be a little Hispanish broad in there waiting for me for that price
Ban worthy? That's medal worthy!
I had the same initial thought re: the shipper - why are they making their problem my problem, but then I wasn't really sure who was responsible so gave the USPS claim thing a shot. Good feedback, I'll try to get them to take some ownership.
And yeah, maybe this is a post for first world problems - "I simply can't get artisanal cognac in this dreadful backwater, and must order it from France, darling"
Having to kick the cat out of the dog's bed.
if you had a job those things world work out on their own while you're gone...
give the overlords a call.
You're welcome to stop by and hang out for a while. Cat bosses the dog around. They're about the same size. The dog weighs more but is old and fragile. The cat is sharp and pointy and young and beats his ass when they tussle. They shouldn't tussle and he really just needs to be left in peace to enjoy his remaining time in the sun. Besides, he's confined to a smaller area because of the peeing thing. The cat can go sleep all kinds of other places and is taking his bed just to be a dick.
The dog sounds like me.

Let's bring this all together; skiing and annoyances.
My latest is when the lot jockey at the local hill parks the car behind me so close I can barely get my tailgate down. Look, I get it; they're trying to cram as many people into the lot as possible. FFS, give a little room there, guy.
People that don’t smile in pictures (and aren’t on the spectrum). What is so wrong with you?
People that think a smile makes a decent portrait. It does not. Stick to your shitty cell phone pictures.
^^^^They’d still park right up to it….and you still wouldn’t be able to get in behind to get your crap out/in….I call it the Steaux special…..happens all the time.
If they don’t get the point after I ask nicely/ or something sarcastic…Just have to pull up a little to at least be able to get into it……
Yes…open your door as you pull in/ to let the guy parking next to you that you’d like a little room to boot up….most get the point.
If it's the guy pulling in beside me, I open the door gently but also claiming a little space. They usually get it, I wave thanks. Screw the guy saying park closer. If a door can touch its neighbor, that's too close.
I say hey there new kid on the block, it's Wyoming. We like our space, a little elbow room. And that little bit of room for comfort won't cost more than maybe 5 cars per 100 or some shit.
Dude behind me, I may ask him to inch back, peeps are usually cool with that. If not, I'll pull forward a foot or so. Fuck 'em.
My annoyance at the hill:
New lifties who have no understanding of how to load an 8 passenger gondola with a long line waiting at opening.
One guy loading parties by size, from a full maze. Not filling in with singles, a line with 25 in it. first 5 cars go up, 6, 5, 5, 4,5.
3 other lifties standing behind him, not correcting him or doing any type of support by helping with the single backfilling.
2 look like new babybosses, and when peeps start complaining about it, they tell them to relax and let him figure it out. A fine example of leading from behind.
No one waiting in a lift line for an hour wants to be told to relax on the first pow day of the season and after 3+ weeks of 5 groomed runs.
A lifty that knows how to load a lift as efficiently and comfortably as possible, given conditions, and who can manage a full maze of skiers that requires a major merge zone so that no one gets the shaft, or sweeps pow off chairs before ya load yer butts, that's a top shelf worker right there.
And yet, all 3 skillz? are absolutely simple to accomplish. Damn near remedial.
Sir, this is a Wendy's.
Bad teeth shame
We just wrapped up the 2024 junkshow and the media is already discussing 2028 candidates

trying and failing to get a campsite 6 months out annoys me
Another thing ruined by the internets
Merry Christmas btw to all y’all
You know how people used to use software to snipe things on Ebay? They need something like that for camping reservations and stuff.
