If you've never had the transmission go out on an F-350 Super Duty while towing a 25 foot trailer and blocking four lanes of traffic in all directions, then the tow not having an inch and 7/8 ball hitch, so you block traffic for over an hour, I highly recommend it. Talk about an exercise in humility.

I am so tired. But I am glad that's over. And they didn't seem too mad about it at work. How you doing Giles?

I'm doing good thank you, but the new Kayak is using muscles I did not know I had, so I am knackered. But that is part of the reason I got it, to build up the strength in my legs… I did have a bit of a "discussion" at the public dock yesterday. It was the first time I was landing the thing, so I was a little nervous about remembering everything and not making a complete lash of it. I got out of the kayak on the slipway and a motorboat came in behind me: "Oi, we are landing there" 
 "Yeah, so am I and I got here first"
 "Well I need to land now"
 "I'll only be a few mins, and I did get here before you"etc etc etc After I got the kayak out, the boat owner came over and was exceedingly nice to me. I think he knew he had been a complete twat. He did not actually say sorry, but did give me some advice on good fishing spots.... 
- 
I love how you say twat  
- 
Haha yes, it's something special — I dated a British girl for a while and it always cracked me up when she called somebody one. It's all in the pronunciation, too — we yanks tend to pronounce it like "twot" but the Brit "at" usage is way better. They win at the insults.

Haha fantastic — Twats of Endearment, coming to Broadway 2022

Lmao

It's official, the number of people who have given up, surges during the pandemic…..

@Filthy: Lmao  Christ alive.

I saw a pair of platform Crocs recently. They’re mutating like the virus. 
- 
Birkenstocks: "They don't make uglier footwear than me! Bonus: I stink too!" 
 Adidas shower sandals: "Wearing me in public guarantees you'll die alone."
 Pajama pants: "What about me?"
 Crocs: "All of you, hold my beer."
- 
Ahem, I will die clutching my Birk Bostons. And they don't smell that bad… Also, I hear that Crocs are super comfortable but tbh I have never tried them on, due to the fact that I am legitimately scared I will like them. Can't have that. 
- 
Hey, there are plenty of comfortable shoes, and not all of them are abominations. That said, Crocs of course are comfortable. Wouldn't they have to be? For professions like being a chef, as long as you stay in the kitchen where they are not visible to the patrons, or being a prisoner, where you might not have a choice, they are a fine option. If you need that springy sole and people see your feet from time to time, I'd recommend Adidas Boost
