Fuuuuck.

Glad everything could be straightened out, but dog damnit that sounds like a shitload of work just because someone decided to be an asshole >:-(

I've seen someone transport a full-size fridge in a 125cc scooter. Of course you can do it with any car, you just use roof bars.

Studio Ghibli films are generally better with the English dubs - they put serious effort in, and it shows.

In Spirited Away the English dub is far better than the original IMO.

Outside of Ghibli, I avoid English dubs.

There's no shortage of them

At least it makes for a good drunken gross-out story, when I can add all the gory little details.

Last time I told it was to a guy who was clearly out of his depth after being served dog meat and black eggs. He went so pale ... maybe in the long term it was worth it, lol

You really lucked out there!

It's funny, I tried to explain to my wife on our first date and she totally didn't understand the concept of BDSM ... to her it was something baddies did on TV.

Yet we settled into lifestyle D/s everywhere apart from the bedroom, lol

Ah ok, I assumed your objection would be for giving rather than receiving ... typically "I don't do butt stuff" crops up in conversation before you tie someone up, and that I would respect

Not really, it didn't exactly improve my relationship with her

I think it's genetic sometimes - I didn't have a single grey hair until I was 35, which is when a bunch of health stuff kicked off.

Still don't have much grey at 48, and my grandfather was only about 50/50 when he died at 85.

I have not had a stress-free life.

I worked at an abbatoire for a while. Dodged the worst stuff no problem ... except for one time with green puss from an abscess in a cow. It must have been under a lot of pressure.

I cut the abscess out and showed it to a woman I didn't like in quality control. She threw up. It was my fault, so I had to clean that up, and I didn't get to go home early to clean myself.

It was not a great job.

JaredAF has really good videos on this, and he measured his lead exposure - it was scary!
