They probably have signals to warn each other when the crazy landlord
comes around.

#10 was taken at my main grocery store 3.5 miles away. It was one
of the earliest pictures to become viral in early March.
 
Now I'm out of duct tape.

It's strange that she killfiles me and then is an expert on my posts.

Come on, cshenk, I've never mention cauliflower pizza :) Are you
confusing me with Gluten Boy?

I was talking about Australia, or specifically my state. We're all
social distancing and locking down and all that, but in the meantime
children still go to school.

Phew. Since you have a functioning brain, it would have been scary if

Americans think that "communal" means "communism" That's why they
can't organise anything communal, like healthcare for everybody.

I read that but too long ago to remember. I'm sure I preferred it to
The Great Gatsby.

Ok, Mrs I, here comes the Kraft Jet-Puffed Mallow Bits, Vanilla:
"sugar, corn syrup, water, modified contains less than 2% of gelatin,
sodium phosphate, natural and artificial flavor, blue 1."
 
No whipping aid! But it has the blue 1. All is good.

>I made some spaghetti and meatballs. I sprinkled some green can cheese on it but the cheese came out clumpy. It was weird. After staring at it for a while, I realized it was mini-marshmallows bits. Kraft will put those things in the same container as their cheese. I found a big container of grated cheese that was better than green
can cheese. Unfortunately, it was moldy.

Were they Kraft Jet-Puffed Miniature Marshmallows?
"corn syrup, sugar, modified cornstarch, dextrose, water, contains
less than 2% of gelatin, tetrasodium pyrophosphate (whipping aid),
natural and artificial flavor, blue 1"
 
The blue 1 is a nice touch.

I don't have showers across the street. I just jump in the creek.

Bollocks!
When I went to Uni, everyone went on a means-tested grant with the
wealthy getting a minimum one but still having the fees paid. VERY few
played around. The vast majority worked bloody hard on their courses.

The guy at the centre of this story has broken his silence and released
a statement to the press. He said that when he we was more than the
recommended 6 feet from anyone and claims that he and his wife had been
monitoring their health. He was later contacted by Public Health and
told that he had been in contact with someone who had tested positive
for Covid 19. He asked to be tested and and self isolated, leaving the
house only to go for the test. One the 20th he tested positive but was
told that he was no longer contagious and could continue his normal
activities.

>I didn't think you were attacking me. OTOH, I'm appalled that you didn't go to your classes because you would have rather slept. My guess is that your college education was free or very cheap.
 
It was uni (is that the same as college?) and I didn't have to pay for
it, which was good because I had no money whatsoever.
 
>I used to go to school with people who didn't have to pay for it and they just had a shitty attitude about being there. Not me, of course. I had to pay $47 a month. Are you kidding? That like $2.35 a day. I'm not throwing that away!
 
I didn't throw it away. I graduated. Other people quit after 3 or 4
years. That's what I call throwing away.

Good, good. No classes before 1PM.

My ideal was to get a 6- (on ten) for an exam. 6- was the lowest grade
you'd pass with. Anything higher and I felt like I worked too hard or
hadn't skipped enough classes.

The only thing that matters is if you wanted to learn or not.

Yes... and ? It is a medical procedure. It is also a form of abortion.
It should be left to professionals. If a woman needs a D&C she goes to a
doctor. If she needs and abortion she should be able to get it from a
proper doctor.
