Have you ever noticed that phone chats on tv and movies always have perfect spelling? ( unless it's l33t or whatever the equivalent is these days )

Hmm do I buy ice cream that's on special at the moment but forgo something a pre-ordered item that got delayed where I ordered from or get it available instantly elsewhere?
Ice Cream I'm thinking of getting is below.
Watching a fine art channel. Paint looks fun. Completely impractical for me so I'll just watch
Paint is fun. People who sell the kit bits can be total Aholes. Apparently I donβt look like the sort of person who can afford to drop 15 on a stringer/rigger. Condescending ass.

Hidey ho!

Despite funny work shenanigans, this morning is going far far slower than I'd like... This week being my first week in the office after being sick and still having lingering little bits has me mega pooped.
Edit - a very important word lmao
I am looking to get a bike to go for rides with my daughter (and ride to work), are the Fluid bikes from Anaconda any good? They look to have good reviews on the site. Unfortuntely they don't have any in stock where I am so I can't even try it out.

Can anyone tell me how much packaging material Ikea generally use with their products? I've got a bunch of things coming on Saturday and am wondering how much packaging I'm going to end up wrangling.
Lots of flattish cardboard, some strapping, the occasional foam corner. Plastic bags on any fabric stuff usually have recycle bin appropriate numbers on them.

It's funny to me how some people hate travelling alone, even to safe countries. I'm quite ok with it and I've done it more than once.
I'm going to live my life and I'm not going to wait around until somebody else is available to chaperone me.
I've done a fair bit of it and there are pros and cons. I can do it and still like it, but I'd prefer to share experiences with someone. I'm not going to not travel until I have someone to travel with though.
The only cons I think of is that it's somewhat more expensive as accommodation and travel costs aren't split, and if something happens to you it's helpful to have someone there to call the authorities the embassy or the hospital etc.
I used to do it all the time too. It's cool.

If you enjoyed the silliness of the Kingsmen movies, Argylle might be for you. Or if you just want a couple of hours of enjoying a fine-as-hell Bryce Dallas Howard doing her thing.
