How (and why) to Ramble on your goat sideways
#4245
Holy ****, is there anything more irritating than coworkers that overreact to every little thing?
Wow, why's it so warm in here?
Because the UPS driver just opened the freight door. Like he does EVERY SINGLE DAY.
Oh man, did all these boxes come in today?? What is all this stuff?
Well, it wasn't here yesterday...so I'm guessing it's today's shipment.
If the phone rings one more time, I'm just going to lose it.
That's unfortunate, since you're being paid to answer the phone.

Wasn't it you that just went on and on about some super-rich caramel cheesecake ice cream? Why do you keep throwing gasoline on the fire? Rich dairy foods cause constipation and gas in people with properly functioning digestive systems. Last time you were on a big yogurt kick and it nearly killed you.
Write off the dairy products entirely for a week and get well. Pretend you have a milk allergy. Dump that stupid ice cream in the sink and turn on the hot water. You need to be healthy. This is frustrating to me because I want to help and this situation is 100% preventable.

There is something to be said for this. I've lost nearly 20 lbs over the past few of months just doing simple little ****, and I've not had any scary poo in that whole time either.

Hernia, not sure where from. Trying to be super man and lift **** that is too heavy for one person (putting my engine on and off the stand by myself...) I'm sure 6-8 years of construction work in my teen years didn't help either. Kidney stones came from grapefruit juice, the only citrus juice that promotes stones. Go figure that it would be my favorite drink. Constipation is thanks to the hernia, before the hernia I was nice and regular.

An added bonus is that it typically stays fresh in the fridge for a month or two, as opposed to cows milk which you're lucky to get a full week out of. This is convenient for me, as when I get back home from a 2 or 3 week trip, I've still got drinkable milk in the fridge.
Funny, that. We had lunch yesterday at a McDonalds (in Germany) and they have 'em here, too. These folks seem to love McDonald's. They're everywhere, and always appear to be packed.
Sidebar: as we learned from Pulp Fiction, it is the little differences which are most interesting. The french fries are only very lightly salted, and are actually quite good- a bit leathery. This from someone who hates McDonald's fries with a passion. And they serve them with mayonnaise (which is quite tasty). The menu is also astoundingly diverse. I had the Nürnburger, which is three little sausages on a ciabatta roll with mustard. Yummy.
And yes, the quarter-pounder is in fact a Royale mit käse.
