I just shat all over the entire nation of… well, something. I’m eating some Ramen noodles right now (I don’t know what kimchi flavor is, but it tastes ok.), and decided that ham would be a nice addition (like shaved deli ham).
The horrible thing is that it’s not too bad. Of course, anything can be palatable with enough Sriracha… 
It’s just so much easier to deal with people when you knock em out. They leave me alone then.
I’m glad we’ve got all our surgical-type MMPers back. beckwall, giving yourself shots sounds scary. Oww. But I’m glad that you’re the Bionic Titanium Person now, because that’s cool.
It’s very hot. I can hardly bear to read the oven stories because it’s so hot. Why don’t I live somewhere sensible, like Antarctica?
The good news: the service center found the part what was causing the car wonkiness. It’s a multi-function switch from which everything electrical emanates or some such nonsense.
The bad news: The service center computers are down so they can’t tell me how severe the $$$damage will be till they are back online. When asked if the multi-anti-wonky-switch was covered under my warranty, the service guy said he’d “never seen one covered.” 
Better start looking for a part time job.
Has it been officially named Emily? BTW, what ever happened to the B storm? I just don’t remember the B one at all.
Yeah, it’s already named. I had to look for B. It was Bret. Got any flooding from Dennis?
My mom did something similar to that, Anaamike. She made a pie in her new Pyrex pie plate, and put it on the stove-top to cool. About an hour later, she decided to make some tea, so she filled the kettle and turned on the stove. A few minutes later, there was an enormous
BANG
from the kitchen. See, she had turned on the burner under the pie, and it heated up the new pyrex glass pie plate so quickly and so un-evenly that it went bang (see above). Sadly, there was no pie to be eaten that day.
I’m not going to start telling stories about burning myself in the kitchen. I’m currently on a not-burning-myself streak and I don’t want to jinx it. Let’s just say that I tend to swear a lot when I cook.
It’s not scary after the first time. I’ve used insulin in the past, and I gave myself a Lovenox shot in the hospital just to freak out the nurse. It worked almost as well (freaking out the nurse) as refusing to ride in the wheelchair when they discharged me. 
I’ve also given VunderWife shots on several occasions, too. The ol’ beef injection doesn’t count for this discussion, BTW.
Heck, even my dear departed VunderDog got injections from me to treat her arthritis.
Just localized stuff. Nuttin’ big. Well, aside from me continually letting water out of the pool Saturday afternoon, night and all freakin’ day Sunday. Lots and lots and lots and lots of rain. Then more rain.
Oh yeah. I’ve done this too. One of my burners is unusable because the plastic melted all over it and won’t come off. The apartment manager’s going to love that whenever I eventually move out. It’s a nonstandard type too so I can’t just go out and replace it (and probably the apartment manager will have trouble too). :smack:
I just read where chaoticdonkey ate kimchi flavored ramen noodles and added some ham to it. Show of hands for everybody who’s glad they are not around him right now?
Show of hands for everybody who’d like to strike a match and throw it in chaoticdonkey’s direction to watch the fireworks. 
Kimchi flavored ramen? Kewl!!!
My store sells Oriental flavored ramen, but I’m afraid to try them becuz I never tasted an Oriental before.
SNERK!!! Oh my, I like that one. And I know a LOT of people that are like Slinkies…
Anh-hanh. That’s what my FIRST mechanic* said, too. Only it never did. Thing is, apparently if it’s just starting to short out, and it only shorts out when it rains, everything is going to show up as NORMAL unless they check it out when it’s actually shorting out. Just ask him to humor you and replace it; they’re not that expensive.
-for anyone who’s wondering, after he failed to diagnose the problem four different times, because he kept running tests on it after it had completely dried out, I killed him and ate him.*
**-Not really. But sometimes, dontcha wish you could threaten people with that?
Hands up everybody who thinks Bobbio and chaoticdonkey should have lunch together?
Kimchi flavored ramen noodles just sounds about as wrong as wrong can get. It’s like packing extra tnt into a stick of dynamite. :eek:
Ah. Well, nevermind about the grounding strap thing then.
I made my daughter very happy today. I ordered the new Harry Potter book for her through Costco. So, whenever they ship it, we shall receive it. I know it won’t be until the 16th at the earliest, but whatever, it’s ordered, and it’s coming to my door. I don’t have to fight the crowds to get it.
On Thursday we are leaving for our camping trip over in Eastern Washington. The weather report is saying 80s and 90s there. I’m not really looking forward to the drive because we need to take both vehicles, but I’m sure we’ll have a blast. My vehicle (the Exploder) is only a V6 and I don’t think it would pull our boat, especially over the mountains. The hubby’s truck is only a regular cab, so besides being illegal, there’s no way four of us can sit comfortably in the cab of that truck for the trip. Especially since his truck is a standard transmission.
Lessee, I don’t have anything fun or interesting to add, I’m kinda sleepy from lunch. I ordered a cheeseburger and fries. Usually, I eat a salad.
Time for my after lunch smoke now.
I hope I will be able to put it out of mind once I get through paying for this round of fixits. I STILL haven’t heard from them as to a price quote. Durn vehicle better be ready to go when I get there tonite. :dubious:
I HAVE MY VAN BACK!!! Not only is it running smooth as silk, it cost less than I was quoted - $344 instead of $350! So I’m a happy camper.
I also have a weird family. My MIL and FIL refuse to use 2 bath towels! I put out 4 clean, fluffy towels for our 4 guests. Only 3 towels were used. Every time they visit, they use the same bath towel. I don’t understand it. It’s not like washing 4 towels is any harder than washing 3. I’m not taking them down to the river and beating them on rocks.
Weird.
Don’t really have much productive to add other than I go on vacation in 2 days!!!
I get to go home to England
Maybe. I love lunch.

I don’t get it. What’s so explosive about ramen? Kimchi I can understand because of the cabbage factor, but this didn’t have any cabbage. Just flavor.
