      Paula decided to bounce off the kerb in the BMW140i practically the first time she drove it and just before I had taken out alloy wheel insurance.  On the 140i Shadow Edition, the alloys are black, so the damage is super noticeable….Her defence,  "Your fault for buying a flash car"....

        Can't argue with that, she's a smart lady. The amount of dings my cars get from city conditions I gave up on a nice ride, they all get messed..This one's had 3 scratches done when the car's parked in 1 year.. Only park in 'good' spots, not on corners or places where I can expect damage..still happens…

          talking to apple genius bar about a problem can be excruciatingly painful when you somewhat know more than them. drains the bloody life out of you. turns out, they don't have much common sense..

            Today our washing machine broke.

            It's not like we don't have enough trouble with the whole stay at home and isolate thing, no, every fekking store where I would have been able to pick up a new one is closed now.

            I understand the necessity of all the safety measures and fully support them. But, fuck, did that damn piece of junk really need to break just now?

            Fuck!

              Damn @Cole. Sorry to hear that. I’m sympathetic to your situation. I’m balancing on a Jenga tower of potential disasters myself, waiting to see which one fails first. At least us denim nerds are skilled at handwashing already!

                  Set up a camp => rest by fire => fast travel. There are a lot of points you can fast travel to.

                  This was part of the update they released a couple of months ago (on PS4 at least)… Not sure at what point in the storyline you're able to use that feauture though...

                      There's an upgrade to the camp that unlocks fast travel from your current tent. You can see it in the ledger. But I guess you'll have to advance the story a bit first and you'll need some money too…

                      It's a hell of a game though...

                        yeah it's definitely addictive. so much more detailed compared to GTA. i've seen that now. the fast travel upgrade is hella expensive at $300

                          I don't wanna put bad thoughts in your head, but if you Google "RDR 2", "gold bar", and "Limpany", you might make an easy 500$…..........

                              Placed an order on Monday (beer)… Tracking # Monday evening said it'd be delivered Tuesday... Now I knew that probbly wasn't gonna happen (border's closed), but hey... Tuesday at 5am it said it had been delayed til Wednesday!.. Huzzah: I was right all along!..

                              Wednesday afternoon it said "it'd be impossible to deliver all the packages", but they'd keep us updated...

                              Got a mail: delivery re-scheduled for Thursday...

                              An hour later: mail saying my package had been delivered. Me at that point in time:  ???

                              Didn't even check whether anything had been actually delivered... Went into work this morning: big box of lovely beer had indeed been delivered. One?.. For a 340€ order?.. Hmmmm...

                              Collegue dropped off the box at my place (I was by foot)... Going through the box... Hmmm so where's the rest of the beer exactly?..

                              Checked the tracking #: Time of delivery today between 13:45 and 17:45 Driver is en route

                              This motherfucker must really like his fucking job, that he spreads the delivery of two boxes at the same location over two days...  😶

                                Just learned that my mom has Alzheimer’s. Been worried for a while, but had to deal with the reality today. As if things weren’t already bad enough.

                                  I’m so sorry to hear this, Adam. That’s a harsh reality. I hope that you have other family to share it with, together. My heart goes out to you.

                                    Grateful for the sentiments @sabergirl I’m a mess. My family is not really a family, more of a cautionary tale and the main reason I don’t have a family of my own. I’m destroying myself for missing the magnitude of this. I saw what was happening but was ignorant to the true cause. I was trying to keep myself from drowning and couldn’t spend the time with her that I should’ve. I just thought that it was alcohol, loneliness and multiple rounds of chemotherapy. This is what happens to people who can’t afford to go to the doctor or hospital when necessary. Things which would’ve been caught years ago go untreated. And then when it’s identified, the cost is overwhelming. And she’s under 60, so I’ve been unable to get help from state services, and the social security is taking an eternity and I have to go to court to get declared her guardian etc.

                                    Will be selling everything that’s not essential.

                                    And to pile on, my car was hit by a century link truck today while parked on the street. Good times
