Things you have an irrational hatred of

[tragabigzanda]

There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

i have three more months left of my no-potato-chip 2024. god help me.

what's your favorite kind of chip?

i'm a boring lay's classic fan.

but i do like a brand called "utz" kettle chips.

if you put french onion dip in front of me, the whole bag of chips will be gone in a minute.

Utz Kettle chips are the best. If you can find their style called "Grandma Utz", those are the best.

Haven’t been able to find those. Plenty of Utz, tho.

Ruddo knows what's up

hear that wease? you don't know what's up. but ruddo does.

I live in a port city, and with the port workers strike, the fucking idiots in this town think that there is going to be a shortage of toilet paper and other shit like that. They think that our tp for this town comes in through the port and is distributed locally here. I'd laugh but now I have to go find some toilet paper because we are running low.

seriously...is this your virgin experience with fast food. how the fuck do you now know what you want by now?

[washing machine]

Increasingly the visibility on these electronic menus is getting too loud and chaotic, these fast food places keep rolling out limited time offerings, and there are a variety of "bundle" options popping up.

It's definitely annoying to be behind somebody who is taking a long time to order, but the fast food consumer machine is partially the blame for it.

Every Thursday after the gym I head to a local Italian deli place for a continental roll for lunch. It's always hell busy and you have to take a numbered ticket to stake your place in "the queue". Invariably, exactly as happened yesterday, the number before me will be some mega order for a small office or some dude who insists on personally advising every ingredient he either wants or doesn't on his roll. This guy yesterday ordered 2 rolls and managed to stretch the process out to 10 minutes or so.

My turn comes up and it's "House Special with lettuce please" and I'm gone in 45 seconds.

Frustrating.
