  • I’m going out with a girl after work and we’re gonna play in the park.

    (It’s my wife and I’ll be riding my bike while she tries to get used to inline skates again. We’re in our 30s.)

    But for real I miss being able to just… Enjoy a playground. Go throw rocks at the creek with friends. Have sword battles with sticks we found while walking by the trees.

    But if I do that, people call the cops because some old guy is clearly confused and wandering around…








  • When my now wife spoke of her “two unmarried aunts who live together in the same bedroom”, I wasn’t expecting that they were sisters who just kept living together in the same bedroom with different beds on either side of the room, even splitting it sitcom style with a clearly defined line down the center, for 60 years.

    And when I explained to her that my friends “aunts” are not actually sisters, they are in fact lesbians who have been together since long before marriage was legal and now just don’t see the point in a piece of paper when they’ve spent the last 35 years together, she had her own moment of realization.

    I explained about Sappho and her friend, how that was basically what you had to be among older generations that had to hide it, just roommates. Then promptly showed her that video.


  • I didn’t stop to greet some customers as I walked in with a cane for the third week in a row due to nerve damage.

    I wasn’t on the clock, we didn’t have a uniform, no name tag, nobody would even know I work there until I put my shit on after I clock in.

    By that time I had made it a habit of recording every interaction with management, so I just pulled out my phone, hit the record button, and asked “so to be clear, are you officially reprimanding me for NOT doing work off the clock?” and that immediately shut him up.

    Managers get awfully pensive when they have recording devices capturing them.
