Dad did a lot of woodworking, so for me it’s the smell of being in a woodshop around a lot of sawdust. Very nostalgic and comforting.

One of the best parenting decisions I’ve ever made. My Mom is still pissed, but at least she’s stopped giving my kids religious themed gifts and asking when we’re going to baptize them.

Cmon. It could be the other large manufacturer, Boein G.

Ha, was exactly the first thing I thought of too.

New York Slice forever, baby! Although Detroit style is quite good also.

That’ll buff right out

Fringe is just a fun sci-fi show that really leans into the fun of it, and so it’s easy to just watch and enjoy even when they’re investigating something insane.

As the The Expanse, it’s an excellent world builder and futuristic saga. I like to watch and see if I catch anything new in the background, and enjoy the epic space battles. (As an aside, the book series is phenomenal also. First three books are $28 at Amazon…. Can almost certainly find them at your local library too!)

And then once you’ve mastered that, you have to add Lizard and Spock!

They already do that by requiring you use an Ubisoft account, even when you buy it on Steam. You shouldn’t be buying from them anyway just because of that. Doesn’t surprise me they made another anti-consumer decision.

We were always late to our class after lunch and the teacher was fed up with it, so gave us before school detention. Thing was, we otherwise were on good terms with him and did well in class, so detention was sitting around and watching part of a movie of our choosing. I think it was more a show for the class that we weren’t favored (which we absolutely were).

We still weren’t on time after that, but never got detention again. Moved on to the next grade and a different teacher for that subject the next year.

Realizing I hated it and was just doing it to appease my parents. It just happened suddenly in one of my classes and it was like a weight lifted thinking about going to do something else. Left and started my career and love what I do every day. Been almost 30 years and I don’t regret it at all. Maybe I’ll go back to school someday, but with prices what they are now, probably not unless my employer pays for it.

Thankfully my current office doesn’t have anyone I interact with like this, but at a previous job I’m pretty sure the dude bought cologne by the 55 gallon drum. It was painful.

Yes, you’re dressed for the weather, as I said. You wouldn’t go out in shorts and a t-shirt and stand there for hours. But if you have a good jacket, gloves, hat, boots, and maybe even snow pants, you can stay perfectly comfortable and safe in cold weather. My point was “cold” depends on what you’re used to.

Most security and construction jobs around here provide employees with big branded coats and winter hats for them to stay warm while they’re doing their jobs, I would assume it no different elsewhere.

That wouldn’t have helped this guy, though, since he died of a heart attack.

Then who?!

If you grow up in a colder climate, no, it’s not bad because you’re dressed for it.

-12C is only 10F. It can get down to -25F (-32C) here in the coldest parts of the winter. For example, our high temperature this coming Saturday is supposed to be 2F (-17C).
