A fax? The 1990s called. They want their fax machines back.
I kept reading this as “Do Not Resuscitate” and getting confused.
Also, they really coulda picked a better acronym.
… that they’ll “never receive” and now you’re on the hook for a 2nd fee + whatever late charges they feel like hitting you with?
How in runny dog shit’s name is this still even a viable excuse?
As far as I’m considered, any business that uses the word “required” and “fax” in the same sentence is gonna hear maniacal laughter from my end.
Fax. That’s cute.
What, they use carrier pigeon for their employee pay?
Oooooohhhh!! MORSE CODE! That’ll show those kids these days on their lawns.
An apple a day & Gilligan’s Isle for the second & third items, but what’s the chicken liver reference?
“What I am I? chopped liver?”
You got it!
Another miracle occurred today. I happened to be up very early this morning and noticed that the recycling bin trucks were operating much earlier than usual, so I rushed out in my dressing gown and put my recycling cart out on the curb. Then I went to sleep for much of the rest of the day.
When I woke up much later and looked out the window, the recycling bin was no longer there. It had been returned to its usual place at the side of my house.
I have a number of theories about how and why this happened, but the one I think is most likely is that the sexual stimulation presented by my svelte body with the dressing gown flapping in the breeze was just too much for casual passers-by to be able to handle, and some Good Samaritan saw fit to minimize the need for such a spectacle, and returned the cart to its usual place. Other opinions may differ, of course, but that’s mine.
Chicken livers? (Yes, I understood the reference.) I just finished off the last of my leftover chicken livers with mushrooms and sour cream, served over egg noodles. How do you fix yours?
When I had to start buying prescription food for my diabetic cat my vet gave me a printed prescription for it, which I scanned with my printer and sent to Chewy along with my first order.
The prescription for his insulin was taken to Walgreen’s, which was cheaper then getting it from the vet. I believe they also gave me a discount because I had an account with them.
I use chicken livers to make “chopped liver” with grated onion, hard boiled egg, and liver. My gf doesn’t like it, so I use a few livers for me and share the rest with the dogs.
For Stroganoff I use turkey livers which have a milder taste. My gf loves liver stroganoff.
I’ve never seen turkey livers at any of my local stores; where do you get yours? There was a stretch when my usual source didn’t even have chicken livers, so the next time they had them I bought several one-pound packages and froze them.
We have a nearby turkey farm. It’s great. I can buy turkeys, smoked breasts, turkey burgers, turkey (ham) salad, turkey sausages, etc.
Got my dishwasher. It is partly installed, but I’m having an issue with the water hook up. I don’t remember how I hooked up the last one, but the water line has a steel elbow all taped/glued/pipe doped in. I can’t turn the nut at all. I’m gonna’ sleep on it and see if I can scare something up at the hardware store. Sooo close. Oh, and I did drown the kitchen can’t pass up on tradition I guess. 
Did you have to turn the nut when you disconnected the old one ?
Pics might help.
Speaking of expensive pets…
Our two senior kitties, 13 and 18, have suddenly decided, this year, to put forth a concentrated effort to bankrupt us. In addition to their routine checkup and blood work (already pricey enough), they both required imaging (echo cardiogram for the 13-year-old, ultrasound for the 18-year-old). Both have developed stage 2 kidney disease. Their prescription kidney food costs $322 every four weeks.
Two days ago, the 18-year-old, who is normally, shall we say, spicy, tried to throw up, could only get up a little spit, and then became super lethargic. Off to the emergency vet, where more blood work and x-rays gave us no real definitive diagnosis, except possible pancreatitis and a small shadow on her lung that may be metastatic cancer (the earlier ultrasound revealed a thickening in her stomach lining that the vet diagnosed as “either cancer or IBS, so we’ll treat her for IBS because there’s not much point in biopsying an 18-year-old cat”).
Follow up yesterday with her regular vet left us with an opinion that if it is cancer, it’s probably end stage and we have to make decisions soon. But in the meantime we’ll hope for some kind of -itis and treat with medication (antibiotics, double her steroid dose, appetite stimulant). Last night she perked up, started eating, and is mostly back to her spicy self.
Great news. But we are another $1700 poorer. Lucky for them they’re cute.
That’s the thing: I don’t remember. I remember I had to cut it off at the plastic attachment on the machine. I had to this time too, but I don’t remember how I attached it. A picture is a problem for me as I haven’t done pics. on a site like this in a long time. I intend to revisit the skill, but not today. I have appointments. I am going to take a pic. to the hardware store when I get a chance. I will try the picture tomorrow if I have no luck today. Thanks.
You have to post the pic somewhere else (Flikr, Imgur, google photos, etc.) & then post a link to it here; can’t directly post photos here.
Well, fuck me, Microsoft has added “reactions” to professional Outlook emails.
Outlook’s task management interface is lacking in many ways - for example, the flags for “Due Today” and “No Due Date” are the exact same color, which is another rant, but rather than fix this ridiculous shit and make it easier to manage emails, I can now “heart” or “lol” or “sad face” my coworkers’ emails - and of course many at my agency have started to do so. I know this because now when I see an email in my inbox, it shows the emoji reactions from my coworkers in the header. Jesus Fucking Christ.
ETA: If they had a “Thank You” reaction, though, rather than coworkers spamming my Inbox with a dozen “Thank yous” a day, that would be swell.
Why? Why would they do such a thing? Yodeling pickles and the work of Dali are clear and obvious in comparison.
While we’re at it, can we ask them to change the default meeting snooze on a meeting to 0 mins. Please. Pretty please!
& if you [Reply All] to say ‘Thank you’ your keyboard should shock your fingers much like a dog collar!!! When are they implementing that needed fix?
Yeah, I know.
