If you plant it they will come, I would recommend washing any food that isn't sealed if you are starting to get hatchling clusters as spiders tend to spray venom near their nest sites to protect their young from predators.

You mean that spider venom is poisonous to ingest? I didn't know that. Assumed it wasn't because you can eat rattlesnake venom, but I guess not all venom would work the same.

Dog just got run over.

Walked it off.

((Took him to the vet, of course, and he's stiff and sore. But apparently no issues, even though a car just ran over his middle. This is the same dog that got knocked unconscious by a trailer, fell asleep and got run over the neck by the car he was under, clipped himself on a tractor, and has run into the side of moving cars more often than I can count. I am actually wondering if he's Wolverine.))

Good news!

Also, sounds like the puppy we got recently. She got into and apparently ate two packages of worm medication. Dosed for horses. It's the same medication as used in dogs, larger dose, so much so that it should theoretically be fatal for a 25lb puppy. Had no problems whatsoever. Had a good yell at my mom for leaving it on the table where she could reach it, tho

We had a boxer that ate a good valentine's day's worth of chocolate.  He lived to an older age than average for his breed.

I dislike it when I use the definition of gender that is just means the same as sex, and then they complain I'm using the word wrong. Really, they should have made up a new word, if they're going to be angry at me for using a word correctly.

[Egan_BW]

"Them".
I can only assume you're referring to the Turkish deep state.

You sure this is the thread you meant to post on?

I think he was just importing the joke from there.

Anyway, I prefer to avoid this issue by just using "sex" exclusively, most of the time. If people want to whine about that that's their problem.

I'm complaining about your super neo-style-vague usage of the word "them" while making a joke because you literally just complained about me using the word "them" without properly defining it despite it fact that it was obvious from the context of the surrounding posts unlike your own post in this thread.

[pikachu17]

It was obvious? I'll have to look at the thread.
And I didn't use the word "them" itself in my post.

EDIT:If they don't exist, how can they want you to think they don't exist? That is why I asked, because I thought one of the 'they's could be a different entity, and I wanted to know, if so, what the second entity was.

Since when has whining replaced the idea of personal respect when you're not referring to anyone else but the individual person asking or mentioning pronouns preferred as such which costs you nothing at all?

And since where did pikachu's post come from within this thread? o_O

Nobody said anything about pronouns.

The kids on my bus are a lot rowdier and louder than I remember them last year.

Or, in any case, I don’t remember any of them screaming “Big Bird take my virginity” last year.

I know my ancestors probably asked the exact same questions, but what’s gonna become of this generation? Will I have to work in the same offices/sites/McDonald’s restaraunt as these folks? What’s gonna happen to me - or them?

I’m some combination of worried and angry.

Sometimes I think about what would happen if I spilled my water bottle over those folks (at least a few have cell phones out). Or if I threw rocks at them.

Or did some other stupid thing that’d probably leave me facing disciplinary action.

I just don’t wanna go to work next to guys screaming about memes all the time is all.

Nobody said anything about pronouns.

Well, the conversation did seem to lean towards that direction.
I blame Godwin's Law, or a variant thereof.

I dont think the definition has changed much at all outside of certain parts of the internet.

[Maximum Spin]

The pendulum always swings back, anyway. If there's a change, it's a blip.
