    Overlooked bringing 200 Bullets to a pistol tournament. = It seems no matter how hard I try to prepare I keep fucking it up.

    I ran out of ammo with 2 stages to go!! Every contest I am unprepared in some significant way.

    Placed 26th out of 26

Annoying but had to laugh.

    My business has been with the same regional bank for a while. I kinda liked supporting a smaller, local-ish bank. They used to be consistent and fine; we're mostly just using them for basic stuff - writing checks, etc. But now they fuck something up pretty much every month. This month, they deposited a check but made a mistake on the amount by $0.73. Took me for fucking ever to track down the mistake so I could get my books to balance. I should probably just pay a book keeper to do this shit.

    haha

    make sure the shit you like is set to download
    then turn off cellular data for spotify
    this keeps your stuff intact & free from interruption until you get back on wifi

    Elude and allude. Affect and effect. Had both of these today.
    focus.

    Affect and effect is not easy. I mean I know the difference but I have to stop sometimes. Especially affected/effected.

    This has happened to me - except it was my kids and their beloved Canadian Children's entertainer Rafi!

    Rafi has a very nice tune about a infant Beluga whale - that is not conducive to aggressive skiing.

    ... but is catchy nonetheless.

    ^^right; also hard to get around needing them, and when somebody uses those incorrectly I don’t think less of them....

    Allude and elude are both (perfectly fine, but) unnecessary words in most contexts. Mixing them up seems more egregious.
    focus.

    What if I told you a story involving losers and loose women, which alluded to an occasion when my flat affect had a significant effect on my ability to elude the police?

    People who ski with headphones.

    But not as much as with music blaring on a speaker... that really annoys me.

    Fuck, I would pay good money for a bluetooth device that could target specific devices and emit a focused and damaging EMP.

    Also, people that pronounce "important", importn't.
    Enunciate muthaf00kers!
