I broke out my big warm coat with the fuzzy wuzzy hood trim and walked around smiling comfortably at the under-dressed men who think being cold is a big flex. Who's gonna cuddle a dude with a body like a sack of hammers anyway?

Are there any printers that aren't balls? Anyway, I hope it all went smoothly!

I've been hammered deploying a NixOS config for work, thermal printers are balls. But fingers crossed it's sorted now and, being NixOS, I never have to do it again.

I've started eating chopped raw white onions. I don't know if it's a mild allergic reaction or not, but it raises my internal temperature a considerable amount, whilst giving me a decent amount of gas to heat up the bed later.

My monkeys are all brassssssic

I'm currently inside but I'm somewhat warm. Yesterday, I gone for walk and I can feel the cold air from my hands. Thank god I have a nice coat from a charity shop which putting my hands in my pocket made them warm again

I'm quite warm. I have a lovely thick quilted blanket and a little dog who is a personal bed heater.

It's 2°C outside, but fairly toasty inside because both Mrs GreyShuck and I have the lurgy and so the heating is turned up. Personally, my temp is all over the place. My feet were simultaneously too hot and too cold most of last night.

It's going to be a miserable and weepy end to the week. Tomorrow we have to say goodbye to a very good boy, the bestest of good boys. He's 13yrs old, his hips have gone and he can barely stand now, he's got cataracts and pancreatitis. He's in constant pain and his legs can give out at random, and you hear him wince in pain every time he lays down. We've even had to start feeding him by hand as he's laying down. He's lost a lot of muscle mass over the last 6 months too, and we've tried everything the vets have suggested to make him comfortable and ease the pain. Pain killers, steroids, special food and so forth... But it's time to ease his suffering and we've been agonising over the decision for weeks now.

The vet is going to come to the house and do it, less stress for our boy and he can be on his comfy bed, surround by his toys and us... and as he's not been allowed any treats for ages due to the pancreatitis and some very boring foods... His breakfast tomorrow is going to be fit for a king, I made a beef stock from some huge beef bones I got from the butchers. That's going to make a thick gravy to go with some steak and veggies.... and I've bought the best treats I can for him.

I think it's the US national anthem

I'm in Yokohama, Japan and hear some last week in the department store.

Genuinely, congrats man - it's dark out there and you have to grind your blood just to be seen

Sounds about white.

The day after Halloween in Asda, Underneath the Tree. I usually like christmas music but I was already having a bad day and that song is so overstimulating when you're in a busy supermarket.

(not you or I)

Spot on! Too much/too hard and I make a 180 right at the door. Sometimes -when in the mood- I challenge an employee to turn it down. Their reaction is always one of :

• "we can't, even if we wanted to" to which I offer -but are always being denied- to pull some plugs or fuses.
• "it's what our customers want" but can't provide reference customers nor details on either which/when/where/how they polled

I think the traditional Thanksgiving song is: "Turkey, Turkey baked yams how we love you so, We didn't like the natives so they just had to go, Genocide ain't no bad thing can't you see it's true We got all the big land oh Turkey we love you"

Nah its all good. I only told people twice im on holiday, obviously needed three times.....

Because it makes some people (not you or I) hang about the shops longer and buy more things.

What's thanksgiving music?

Got Whammed by a rickshaw in London yesterday. November 17, the earliest I've been out of the game in a long time. The last 4 years it's been those rickshaws every time.

the war on thanksgiving music

Above all, WHY must they play music everywhere and so loud

About 2 weeks ago. It's no better or worse than the usual music they play.

sounds like you should be asking for a raise or searching for better workplace imho. life is too short to waste time on people who don't value yours
