Good fucking god, if Alanis Morissette could say/talk about these things in 1994 the goddamn patriarchy would have been absolutely 100% fucked.

Wait.. no. Having to stare at the Zoom logo, outside of working hours is the hardest part of this game.

When you are the same age as Max Scherzer, it is a little tough to hear how old he is all night.

"Move alert cleared. Good job!"

Thank you, I forgot what I was doing and walked around in 3 circles in my house.

It sounds like the kind of dumb thing you do when you're young & reminds me of the time I went last minute to a Rider game, stayed at a seedy motel in north regina for a few hours and then the van ran out of propane (on a sunday) on the way back home. Everyone should have one of these stories!

I (asthmatic 35+ years) had an inhaler that I couldn't get to work. So I walked to the pharmacy with it, took it out of the box, and said, "So it won't work," and I squeezed it, and it worked.

I went for a really long walk after that.

I accidentally grew the lesbian flag, so now you know what will be planned next year?

Earlier this week, I stared down a sign trying to figure out the acronym of the business.

Turns out SPA stands for spa.

Look, having a favorite garden tool doesn't make me feel old, but the fact that my favorite is the stand-up weeder... maybe that hurts a bit.

It did the last time I was there! Maybe they don't do it anymore it was at least 2 years ago!

I had a cheese cone in ... 2022? 2023? At the same place! It changed names, and it still has great latin food!

That does sound amazing. I am upset about no more cheese cone that was the best!

Me: "Do they really want an endowment to deal with in 35 years? We won't even be a civilization then"

Coworker: "I like how you're bringing the rainbows and sunshine this morning."

Tell me how I'm wrong though.

First tan lines of the season, patio beers, and hungover yardwork. It's good to be back.

At least she finally knows to believe me. Only took almost my entire life for that to happen.

Right??? Like I literally work in post secondary education, why the fuck are you arguing me?

"Well why do they come here then?" I don't know why don't you fucking ask an international student???

My boomer (but actually almost genx) mom just tried to tell me, who works in post-secondary education, that international students get free tuition.

"Well, that's what I've always heard," and that pretty much sums up conservatives in 2025.
