What'd you do? Squats? Sounds like squats.

I'm lucky in that the guys in my family are built like hockey players, so we'd have to be pretty massive in the arms to look top-heavy. Downside is it's pretty hard to get a real workout on the legs without a lot of weight, and the joints usually want to give way before the muscles.
Gruesome leg day Wednesday, so my legs are fried today.... Ooof!
Afternoon off, so I just think I will watch some movies and eat some snacks.
Re doctor bill: I’m not expecting a handout. I understand how the world works, and I gotta pay for things but not $160. That’s some severe over billing when the specialist I was seeing before for the same thing was charging me $50ish.
I’m sure we do, and guess what? We are both equally right in how we feel about it.

I'm glad we agree that went poorly, but I suspect we think that for very different reasons.
And here I thought Monday was only once a week.
Wow, just wow. Spoke with a person that was very helpful, but I can’t believe what I was told.

So I take back everything I said about Amazon. They are angels sent from heaven compared to the bullshit song and dance I just got from the truest evil on this planet: the insurance company.

And don’t anyone argue with me on that one or I will drive to your house and exact the unholiest of damage does you can find out for yourself.
Ok, now I’m out. I have an insurance company I need to go ream out.

Nah, just the stuff run by money grubbing whores and old, fat white cats.

Software. Services. The stuff we totally take for granted.

Huh? Please explain how you're a "pariah" for not using this stuff.
I haven’t seen or talked to any of my friends from high school. I don’t have access to a lot of businesses. I find out about company events a couple of days after the fact.

Don’t bother trying to argue me on this one because it’s going to go just as poorly as when you argued you can choose to not partake in capitalism. It’s just tinfoil, pie in the sky crazy talk.

If you live in America you have one and only one choice. Submit to the man. Or become the man.

But that’s only if the current man doesn’t have you killed for trying to usurp him.
