Always keep at least three days worth of drinking water in your home, a gallon per person per day. So many emergency situations, large or small, can make water unavailable or unsafe. Having filters is also helpful, but you need actual full bottles on hand. For less plastic, go with the big bottles, you can drink from cups. And OP could have washed pits and crotch at least using some of his drinking water, since it’s not citywide so he could buy more on the way home from coffee.

That one made me snort!

Honestly, it’s a huge unexpected step from “meet for coffee” to “come shower in my apartment.” Or depending how you worded it, you could sound like you’re just trying to bail on getting together. Just because you’re not lying it’s not necessarily believable, especially in a dating context. Maybe try again when you’re done dealing with this and clean again.

Once you’ve cooled it and applied polysporin, you should put a bandage to keep from smearing off all the polysporin onto your clothes and keep it clean. If you don’t have a bandage that clean long sleeve will do, but it might get a greasy mark you’ll need to treat later for laundry: try rubbing in a dab of Dawn before laundering it.

Bear in mind, it may randomly start hurting and feeling burny again later, because the nerve endings hate burns. Cold water will help again. Fridge temp is fine, helps numb it without causing ice damage.

Strawberry jam, agreed. It doesn’t slither away like jelly. And if it’s a packed lunch, put a thin swipe of butter on the bread first to stop the jam from soaking through.

In bed?

Jk, but maybe we shouldn’t be shaming someone’s punishment-seeking kink

Seems to me your definition of intelligence ignores whole aspects of true intelligence, at least of the human kind, such as emotional intelligence and social intelligence and artistic intelligence and moral intelligence…

“Problem solving” is the name for what you described and it doesn’t necessarily require intelligence. In fact most intelligent people have encountered situations where it made solving a problem more difficult.

Shame.

Those now in power, and Trump especially, have none. They don’t even understand the concept. And it’s been embraced by his hyenas.

Used to be, when the general population became aware of atrocities, and that they were committed against innocent people, they refused to continue to support those who had done wrong. Now Trump waves it in their face like a banner and they follow him

Used to be,

Use your broccoli peeler going down the shaft from the pubes and don’t forget to slice off the tip!

I’m a shaft preferer myself, it’s sweeter and won’t be hiding any bugs.

Or KKKlanists

That does seem like it’s a meme waiting to happen, what with orbs glowing like lamps.

And here I was thinking it was just a bullshit crappy landlord phrase, but you’re right, it signals his whole intent.

Cool, if it’s also Art Nouveau.

Paring and shaving away all excess, leaving only the simplest way, is what Occam’s Razor does.

I would differ with the chart though, and say that if a razor is visible in the first act, someone’s throat will be slashed by the end.

Thanks, had forgotten “atlatl,” gonna try it in NYT Spelling Bee next time it has those letters.

Well yes duh 75% is ¾ that much I got. So I guess the joke is AI wouldn’t, because it hasn’t learned to tell time, just as it’s not sure about fingers…

Wtf is 7:75? That would be 8:15. Quarter to eight is 7:45.

Or am I just super old and whooshing on the joke? Maybe it’s an AI equivalent of eight fingers or two left hands?

When it’s been a long cold night, getting colder by the hour, and finally you see the sky start to lighten and especially when that first real ray of sunlight tips over the horizon, it may not have actually begun to warm you but the hope does make you feel a little warmer. You know it’s at least not going to continue getting colder, and in most cases it will actually be warming up for several hours ahead. Maybe that hope makes your heart beat a little faster, that would help warm you up too.

Burnt to a crisp, and spicy

It’s like that, disgusting and/or exposed, because your body is trying to keep you from pissing the bed. When you start to have a dream like that, wake up and you’ll realize you need to go to the bathroom. Your own clean normal private bathroom.
