    Corporate word salad, Techno-babble, Exxon referring to their company as an 'ecosystem', health insurance company employees that believe ripping off it's policyholders is a good business, politicians that almost predictably end up in prison, states that house death penalty felons for the rest of their lives while other states deport peaceful immigrants to some God-awful other country and/or feed them to alligators for fun and profit.

    Might be that the Earth is very slowly shrinking - and you are not. : )

    What annoys me is the bs control cell service providers put on you, even if you’re paying for unlimited data, texting, etc. there seems to be gigabyte limitation if you’re using your cell as a mobile hotspot. The fact that they can regulate your usage is bullshit. WiFi, internet connection, etc., It should all be free like the air we breathe . Before you know it, they’ll figure out a way to package that up and sell THAT to us too :mad:!!

    5 months out. Certain stores around town do this crap. Home Goods is one of them. Hobby Lobby, on the other hand, started selling Christmas decor in July!

    It's like that with back to school stuff too, they barely wait for summer to start before stocking everything for back to school. :rolleyes: It should be back to school stuff out in August into September, Halloween stuff out in September and October, Thanksgiving can have a little over lap with both halloween and Christmas but Christmas should never be out before mid October at the earliest.

    Coffee Pods and K Cups.

    upload_2025-8-15_11-57-10.jpeg
    So I go to someone's house and they offer me a cup of coffee.
    Do I get a good old cup of Folgers, or 8 O'clock; maybe Maxwell House?
    No, I have to pick from some stupid rack of designer coffees.
    Just WTF is Dark Roast Torrefaction fonceés, or Cafe Escapes Chai Latte?
    Cinnabon Caramel Pecan? Really?
    Crème Brûlée Coffee?

    Just give me a cup of coffee like my parents drank thank you.
    I like coffee, plain and simple.
    I used to get a decent cup for free at Ollie's Bargain Outlet (Good Stuff Cheap).
    We used to go there before it was actually a store, just an old barn loaded with fire damaged goods. You literally had to climb over stuff and watch that you didn't sprain your ankle in some hole in the floor. On the way out they had "Wet Ones" for free to wipe the soot off your hands.

    Then they opened a store and Ollie would stand out front and talk to you and you got free coffee from an urn back by the restrooms.
    So, I'd go for the coffee.
    For free.

    They stopped that when COVID hit.

    So now the hot spot is Starbucks. I just looked up their menu...Caffè Americano, Lavender Oatmilk Latte, Cortado????

    I just want coffee, not some existential Yuppie experience

    If the retailers would simply schedule all their 'special sales' exactly a year ahead of time -- it would be just like it was before.

    What annoys me? Mass shootings- at school children, people worshipping in churches, basically anywhere there’s a totally defenseless group of people gathered. I’m just sick to death of it! If you got a damn problem, GET some fuckin help NOW :mad:!!!

    People have been packaging and selling various types of excrement for thousands of years. Just package it in pretty plastic bag with images of flowers and vegetables and it will sell like hotcakes. It's called fertilizer.
