FUCK! I do not like being older than 55. I mean, I like not being dead. But that's about it. Before 55 if I started to get fat I'd adjust my diet or exercise and in a few months I'd be not fat. If I got out of shape I'd get back into exercising and get back into shape. Around June of 2024 I realized I was 10-15# overweight. I've managed to lose 5-10# of that, but the last 5# WON'T come off. (Of course my efforts to drink less cocktails are still a work in progress.) Awhile back I realized it hurt and made me tired to bend over while cleaning house so I started exercising again and got back into shape. Then around April of this year I got too busy to exercise regularly. Now that I've got time again, I'm finding it impossible to get back into an exercise routine. It just hurts so much. If I'm lucky I manage 1 or 2 partial workouts a week. I probably need to step back the intensity initially and work back up to sustainment levels, but it's so hard, knowing I should be able to do X pushups and only doing N.

You'll be okay, kid.
 
Google sucks so much now. And DuckDuckGo and Startpage just use Bing and Google as their engines so they're really only marginally better. On a whim I discovered Excite and Dogpile are still a thing and did quick test searches that I didn't completely hate, so I've bookmarked them. I also have a MySpace page, but since I'm the only person with a MySpace page, it kind of defeats the purpose of a social network.

I gave up on my MySpace page when it told me I could log on using Facebook.
 
Are there people that actually *like* creamed corn? People who go to the store and go "Oh boy! A can of creamed corn! I'm going to treat myself today!" Or is it just something they make for food pantries to remind poor people that they are poor so they have to eat whatever they can get?

I don't cream my jeans for creamed corn but I like creamed corn. Creamed spinach too. Also cream of broccoli soup. More vegetables should be creamed. I'm all set for when old age and poor dental decisions force me into a more liquid creamy diet.
 
WHAT EVOLUTIONARY PURPOSE DOES IT SERVE CATS TO WALK INTO YOUR PATH AND THEN STOP? And why do they act so shocked and offended when they get stepped on?

Wrong! You walked into the cat's path. Your path belongs to our Cat Overlords. They will not be disrespected. Lord Winston P. Fluffington is not amused.
 
Exactly
You must bow to the cat.
Always.

Also, your cat is Buddha. Just stop, breathe, watch and then walk.
 
Here's a little something I need to get off my chest, and I don't know why I feel the need to vent it here of all places tonight, but I'm gonna do it anyway. Back in the summer of 1985 I lost a good friend of mine at a party accident. She fell off a second floor balcony and smashed her skull on the concrete below and died. I was supposed to be at that party but I begged off because I had work in the morning. I don't know if she just fell off or some douche pushed her off during an argument or what the hell happened. I should have been there, this is something that has nagged at the back of my skull for 40 years now. Maybe if I had been there I could have stopped it.

Anyway, this group of us have this tradition of leaving a quarter on her headstone every year on Memorial Day, because she like playing quarters if you know what that is. Bounce a quarter off a table, plop it into a beer, etc. So I was digging through my coin stash and randomly I found two quarters, one minted in her birth year and one in her death year. I know it's not Memorial Day but it seems like a signal, so I will take both of them out tomorrow and leave them with her.

Rest in peace, Shelly. We all miss you still.
