The Chit Chat Chit Chat Thread

Agree, but more often than not.. Companies have the tendency of downplaying and the advocate groups to exaggerate.

Example of company PR " The Lead in minuscule quantities, like in our products, do not pose a danger to humans"
They claim that ONLY the traces they have int he product isnt dangerous.. But humans could get other traces elsewhere and these "traces" become more than just remnants or "microscopic" units. As lead tends to accumulate on fatty tissues. Lead poisoning can take years to develop.

Then we have "Advocacy" groups, like the morons anti baxers who rely in lies to deny vaccines. (And not on real things, like vaccine allergies). claiming that Vaccines are the end of the world or cause problems that have not been proven in any way (like the "mercury" or amalgams used in vaccines being pure and dangerous and that they develop illnesses. When in reality they are unharmful composites. (aka an idiot trying to claim they are experts in chemistry and playing the "ohhh fire is bad!")

Genuinely why I take a step backwards to see better info. Me, vaccines are safe, they have been more than vetted. Now...infants, vaccines and add in something like tylenol, advil or other chemical or another component at the same time as vaccines gives me pause to wonder what different drug interactions might play into all that. 'Something' has sparked its rise. Hopefully they will trip on the added trigger someday, hopefully soon. I know they are studying a few families where multiples of 3 or more off spring family members have been effected. Trying to backtrack why all. It is all so frustrating and heartbreaking to families and those researchers trying to pinpoint. Blurg.

I don’t want to kill them, just relocating to a property about 10 miles away..there’s a lake and land.. the squirrels won’t be as bothersome there.

I understand. I don't understand children in cages and concentration camps. Big difference.

I remember posting a photo similar to you this spring. I love this photo even more at night. One of my favorite sights is Tomorrowland at night. Second is Spaceship Earth at night with the real palms glowing against SSE. Warm and embracing. Both set that tranquil mood.

Hmpf. I'd never think up such a thing. Then again I really really dislike rice cakes.

Good morning my friend as I try to go back to sleep.

I'm so tired of work and dealing with people and their not understanding phrases like "We don't have any licenses for this program; your department has to buy it."

Can't I just get on a plane and go to Disney tomorrow?

You have my permission but your boss may feel differently

Good morning. Why are you still up?

Last year @Goofyernmost taught me via YouTube how to micro corn on the cob and no peeling or silk. The only way I’ve cooked it since


This year YouTube has taught me how to simply pull the rind off a watermelon by first slicing off each end and turning the melon into a cylinder. People are creative.

I so want to make corn like that. It's either in small batches on the grill or in large batches to freeze.

Not long.

This person I had to deal with today...I explained that we have no licenses for this particular program available and that she needs to purchase it. Apparently that didn't make sense via email, so she called me. I explained to her over the phone that she had to purchase it. She argued that her coworker didn't have to purchase it, so she shouldn't either. Then, I put her on hold so that I could talk to my coworker. We tracked down verification that her coworker did purchase it. I got back on the phone and said, "Your coworker purchased on this date. We're having everyone purchase as we don't have any licenses available." She was still confused (we gave her a PDF with links to purchase. What is confusing about that is beyond me.) So I gave her the contact info of our rep at the vendor.

But wait, there's more...

Then, she emails the technician working on her PC. "Here's the quote, please install this for me." Which he can't do anything about;; he's waiting on us for confirmation that he can install the program He was going to respond, but we said "Don't even bother. We've already told her."

But wait, there's more...

She then put in a ticket into our request software for the program. "Here's the quote, please install." Not realizing that I go through there a couple of times a day and pick up the tickets belonging to my team. So I emailed her back, "As I explained on the phone..." And cc'ed my boss at that point.

In conclusion, I hate people.

Sympathy like

Thanks. It wasn't as bad as it could have been This one at 1 am tonight beyond loud as she blew through as I had tried to sleep. At least overnight vs my summer daytime hours. Stilll rumbles. Tired View attachment 304382

It's August and I'm wearing fleece. At least when we had all the humidity it at least felt a bit warmer. It's supposed to warm up during the day but 66 in summer I need to rethink my living arrangements

 

[Figgy1]

Oh this is so on my bucket list. Lime ice cream. I love lime. Dark sugar cone. Purple sugar. Go Disney.

Lime Les vins should add a lime slushie

 

[Figgy1]

One of my DD favorites though they have changed it over the years. Still go though. Often the dryer lint is omitted now. The Cone is gone and it is most times a waffle bowl with
M&Ms vs the dryer lint.

The like is for M&Ms. Every time I had to go there I always left with free candy

 

[Figgy1]

Thank you. It wasn't so bad. Tonight was worse, still more loud than floody so far. Yet it has me up. Annoyed.

Every trip the People Mover at night is a must do ride. Then the boys get their revenge on the Tea Cups
