Drink some beer and play some video games and we'll call it a deal. I can't promise any more subsidies or public welfare programs, but I will do my very best to make sure that everyone has plenty of beer and video games.

I debated not putting in the comma before bitches. The comma could indicate either an inference of speaking towards the reader, or actual free market bitches, which are known to hang out around Wall-Street when the red lights turn on. But since my administration would be aiming towards dismantling the rotten structure of modern government and replacing it with beer and video games, I decided that it best to leave it in.

Proper punctuation can make or break a political campaign. Just ask Dan Quayle.

Springboks just beat an incredibly dangerous looking Ireland! Man of the match had better be Faf de Klerk. He stopped at least two tries by himself!

Actually, I saw this quote from somewhere: "I want to thank my parents, Ayn Rand and God."

Based on the quote, how many people was the person thanking? (For purposes of this post, count "God" as a person.)

Also, note how adding a comma after "Rand" changes the meaning.

I was being sarcastic.

Testing a bunch of games that I would not have personally bought or wishlisted and didn't think they'd be appealing, but which mostly appear to be fun appealing games having actually tried them. One can just never truly know whether they might enjoy a game until actually trying it out. Heck, one of them even has pixelated retro graphics which always makes me gag and eye-roll but it seems like it might be fun anyway. Makes me wonder what other surprises I'll uncover as I continue to dig through the pile...

You really shouldn't use sarcasm; I see it as lying, and it can be easily misinterpreted. This is especially true on the internet, where tone of voice can't be conveyed, or when talking to an autistic person, who is very likely to take such statements literally.

So please don't be sarcastic; it's not nice.

Then avert your eyes and ears, princess. You're gonna be old and miserable if you keep waiting around for everyone to be nice. That goes doubly true for the internet.

Despite bankers and Euro-tyrants are pissed big time, after Brexit won, sterling's value is back in rising, after the immediate decline! Eff you two, losers!

So proud of my doggie.

Was laying down in my lounge room with him snuggling; wooden front door open, metal security door shut.

Idiot Bible-basher decides to ignore doorbell (I've taught Jake to sit at the door when he hears the bell) and instead taps on the metal door and rattles it while peering in and yelling.

My dog went from almost asleep in my arms to hurled missile with jaws doing crocodile snaps in mid-air as he lunged for the idiot.

The hair on Jake's back turned to bristles from his neck to halfway down his tail.

Freaking idiot was lucky the security door held and I was there, he almost got his apocalyptic dream of meeting his maker.

So proud of Jake, he's only 8 months old and still a baby.

Got myself a nice "analog" kitchen scale with a retro look this morning at Lidl, it was the last one.

It looks cool and now I can go nuts once again about making equal portions and controlling my nutrition routine like in the good old days of my fitness routine :o)

Last trip of the day to the new place last night. Pulled up, backed up the trailer, and was greeted with the sight of a storm headed our way. Just beautiful. Can't wait to see a good thunderstorm coming in across the valley.

The water came back on!

Divinity 2: Developer's Cut - I installed it to do some beta testing but I needed to start a game to be truly effective... I mean, you do want to be thorough when testing things right? Anyway, the tests normally take 10-20 minutes per game give or take, but um... this one took me 3.5 hours. It was a very comprehensive test, so I wanted to be sure it worked. :)

It worked! :)
