Puts the "pro" in procrastination
The wife wants bamboo blinds. I think it makes the window look like it's been boarded up from the inside in preparation of a zømbie apocalypse. So I need to think of something to counter the bamboo idea.
She likes a lot of light. I like it dark af.

Am I dreaming or are you reading & gravying posts from 4 years ago?

You need a hobby. Have you ever tried playing a musical instrument?
I think it's silly to get notifications on who gravied you. If you care that much, you care too much.
Yes, arguably to more success than you.
DOn't be dense(r) - I have more hobbies than strings has pedals.

If you loved me you would have waited for my edit. I have blasphemed and now it's on record.

Do any of you manly-types ever stop in an Ace Hardware?
When I was a yute, the one in lovely Benson (Omaha) had an Ace with creaky wooden floors and a huge wall of wooden drawers, and had everything you’d ever want. There was no such thing as a big box hardware store back then, the first being Handy Dan which came around in the late ‘70s/early ‘80s.
The one nearest my house (now) doesn’t have the wooden drawers or floor, but it has darn near the same vibe. I’ve never left there without what I needed or pissed off about something, and I can’t say that about Home Depot.
Yesterday, one of my older brothers texted a picture of a lamp part and said he was ignored at “all the stores I’ve been to” and I suggested Ace. He texted back later to say thanks and that he’d found what he needed. He also left calm.
Just curious. I know most folks rely on online shopping these days, and was compelled to ask.
