      You got me. I’m on 2hrs sleep and on my phone so there’s my excuse. And I hope I didn’t imply that I have life “figured out” I was merely marveling at how many things people’s brain seem to do without their consent/will, etc. it often seems like the person didn’t really want to count stairs or be bothered by an angled snap logo. I guess I’m just not super bothered by these kinds of things, that’s not to say I don’t have quirks. Speaking of which…

      Different rant: why do so many companies call their derby shoe an Oxford? I mean you make shoes, or sell them, and the distinction is very clear. I’m definitely particular when it comes to rigor in terminology. Call it what it is! (To be clear I’m not bothered by either type of shoe, although I’d probably rather wear a derby)

        At least i have my health… wait... what?  😉

        I was in hospital for a minor operation about a week ago.

        The girl in the pre-op ward to the right of me had an infection on a plate in her ankle. They were going to open her up and try to fix it.

        The guy in the bed opposite me looked like he was freshly missing his lower leg. 😞

        Like a lot of things, it could be worse.

        Get well soon @Matty123!

          I do the same thing all the time. My eccentricty is that I can’t help pointing it out when others do it. Which means I’m not eccentric, I’m a hypocrite [emoji23]

            @Graeme I hope your procedure went well. And certainly, things could always be much worse. I have absolutely kept this in perspective.

            Maybe so. Maybe not

                It all went well @Matty123, it was a minor, elective thing. Just involved sharp things going where you don't want them going. 😶 ??? 😢

                  There are those that are self aware, and then there are those who have no self awareness. People who think they have life figured out, really have no self awareness.

                  I love my idiosyncratic traits.

                  I don't understand the purpose of science fiction. I don't understand the love of cars that have the capability of far exceeding the speed limit of the country in which their owner lives. I don't understand the purpose of emoji  😢 😛 😎  🙂

                  I don't understand online concepts such as trolling. Oh the world we have created. I'm off to middle earth.

                  I agree with this, mostly online concepts of trolling. I think it's a big waste of everyone's time.

                    Gonna have to schedule one of those myself (sharp things in sensitive places). Opting out of further meddling with the gene pool. Getting a girl pregnant is like the worst thing that can happen to you for a long time*, then it changes to the best thing that can happen, and I can’t bear it changing back! I just can’t do it.

                        and annual "self-evaluations".

                        Seriously, why can't I just say "I'm awesome! Give me the job!!!" or "I'm awesome! Give me a raise/don't fire me!"

                              Seul would approve of the broach though. And the underpants as well, lets be honest.

                                    It’s just that their lack of food and low vitamin D levels make it hard to be enthusiastic about anything anymore.

                                      So unfortunately it seems like no flying with IH going forward…

                                      Going through the screen lit up like a christmas tree over 90% of my new 23oz 777

                                      The tsa "gentleman" and I use that term lightly.... was very thorough and preformed an above average pat down... something I feel both of us wont forget for a while.... I didn't even get a drink

                                      Normally the 25oz will light it up a little bit but this was a whole new level.

                                        UHR is apparently a major threat to air safety. It’s the one denim that gets mentioned all the time for this problem.

                                            So I feel I’m missing something.  I’m traveling to Dallas next week and was planning to wear Ironheart.  Is there a reason not to?

                                            I would appreciate if someone can elaborate on their experience.
