Back in May 2025 I was at Petsmart picking up food for demoncat and ran across a damaged-box Top Fin 5 gallon AIO. I really didn't need another tank, and I hate AIO's, but for $20? Couldn't pass it up. I don't hate the included pump/filter as much as I thought I would, but the light is WAY too...

You might be stuck having to buy a light with unwanted features. I need high CRI lights in my studio and it's darn near impossible to find a fixture or bulbs rated over 85 unless you want to spend big bucks at a photography shop. Cheapest route is one or more of the old-style round shop...

Mom used to keep one of those stuck to the fridge to make her grocery list. One day after a brutal double shift dad come home completely snookered and wrote "Bring home the buckwheat spanky." Thing is, the whiteboard had gotten broken earlier in the day while we were roughhousing. The marker...

So, now we know it was William, but who does actual tech support? This place has bugs, and I don't mean the cheap hotel bed kind. For example, this is my 7th (since I've been keeping track) 199th post.

I'm surprised they let you hunt deer with rifles, 'loosening' the restrictions. It's the opposite here, we will soon have the most restrictive gun laws in the country. 8/1 is the end of being able to buy any firearm with just the standard NICS check. Ironic that hunting is what drew people to...

I've got a few years to go but I'm not worried about it. Donating plasma can net $800 monthly around here, and I can sell my body for at least .25 cents a pop. As good lookin' as I am I'll be buying all the fish and Big Macs I want.

It's the instruction manuals. They have to add all those extra letters for you UK guys. I completely agree about the subscriptions; they've gotten out of control. For music I put up with the adds to avoid the ever-increasing charges. For the tele, it's almost cheaper to pay for a standard...

Made with smooth PB! Mmmmm methinks I'll do a little baking today

I've eaten nothing but peanut butter the last two days. Something 'clicked' in what's left of my mind and I've just had wicked cravings for it. I've had it on toast, bagels, crackers, tortillas, cheerios, chunks of cheddar, strawberry pop tarts, and by the spoonful. Sometimes with pineapple. I...

LMAO! Seriously, was that a guard thing? I don't know anyone who served that hasn't experienced the same. I thought it was funny then and I still think it's funny now.😂 I've never had a drive fail either. I read somewhere that if an electronic device is going to fail, it's going to happen...

If they were the real deal my CC would get pulled so fast it'd have scorch marks. And roughly 5 minutes after delivery I'd have perforated palms. Totally worth it.

Same reason you date the ugly chicks! They grow up to be millionaires, plus they have cute friends! I dunno. There's a certain charm to scratched up acrylic tanks with purple gravel, resin castles and air-powered clams. Would a tank like that ever win TOTM here? Not a chance. Nor would my...

Me personally? No. Although according to a certain segment of society I could acquire that condition. Hard pass, thanks. Oh, you mean the shrimp? That's like one of those bigfoot pictures....
