    Things That Are Bothering You, Got You All Hibbeldy-Jibbeldy, or just downright pissed, RIGHT NOW!

    I hate getting old. Last year I tried to get back into running. Over the course of several months I gradually progressed from walking the whole 6-7 mile route to interspersing sprints with walking, and it got to where an entire run loomed feasibly in the distance. But after each session climbing...

    Things That Are Bothering You, Got You All Hibbeldy-Jibbeldy, or just downright pissed, RIGHT NOW!

    I'm beyond sick and tired of all the attention paid to Swift and Mahomes' wife at football games. Even as a casual fan with only irregular exposure to this affront, the very fact it happens disturbs my composure. Like all right-thinking men I am hoping Baltimore administers a fearsome thrashing...

    Things That Are Bothering You, Got You All Hibbeldy-Jibbeldy, or just downright pissed, RIGHT NOW!

    My junk folder routinely gets those extortion letters claiming my machine has been hacked and Internet activities monitored, resulting in a video of embarrassing behavior to be sent to everybody in my contact list unless bitcoin in a particular amount (it varies) is transferred to a specified...

    Things That Are Bothering You, Got You All Hibbeldy-Jibbeldy, or just downright pissed, RIGHT NOW!

    A friend has zero debt, never missed or was late with a payment over the course of two (now retired) mortgages, and has never failed to pay off his sole credit card in full each month. Earlier this year the bank reduced his credit limit. Why? Too much unused credit capacity: his typical monthly...

    The Home Ownership Thread

    Lightbulbs are like that. Everybody has a bulb in their home that they're always changing, and another they cannot remember ever having changed. The memoryless property of the exponential distribution in action.

    What Movies Are You Watching Lately

    There are no surer bets than "Oppenheimer" and Cilian Murphy for Best-Picture and Best-Actor nominations.

    Things you just don't get

    One time the electric company needed to come out to do something or other and quoted a six-hour window. Then the guy called ninety minutes ahead of the window: he wanted to start his day early. Unfortunately I wasn't home and suggested he swing by sometime during the agreed upon time frame. He...

    Things you just don't get

    Well that does seem a little uncharitable but yes, pickleball is a lot more accessible to the average person than something like tennis or racquetball.

    I once saw a seagull rip a sandwich out of a woman's hands at the beach, but this is going too far. Back when I lived in a seaside burg it never seemed summer had officially begun until I'd been shat upon from above.

    Favorite American Haberdasheries

    I have a pair of the Dress Fast shoes - excuse me, "dress sneakers" - from Hubbard. And while I'd never think to wear them with a suit, they are very comfortable and look quite sharp with denim.

    The Official Dieworkwear Appreciation Thread

    Probably the same guy in the photograph I saw of participants in debt-ceiling negotiations walking down Capitol stairs. All wore shoes save the hipster. Ghastly.

    The 2023 Allen Edmonds (AE) Appreciation Thread

    Have my eye on the light-gray courtside sneakers....if they ever go on sale.

    In the video she says it's fresh pasta but it's really just reconstituted packaged pasta. One thing that gets me H-J just drove by. Now that the weather's warming up all these self-styled rebels are taking to the street (after putting in eight hours for The Man, of course) on their motorcycles...

    Pants with cuffs (turn-ups)

    Cuffs aren't practical anyplace with winters worthy of the name. They collect snow.

    Talking stocks, trading, and investing in general

    The last time I got laid off the severance was based on length of service with the company. And to whichever merry joker is planning a witty reply to my supposed comment "The last time I got laid..." You are beaten to the punch. Just move along now.
