I read an article that a recent survey indicated 40% of millennials don't eat cold cereal because it's too much effort. Because you have a dirty spoon & bowl when you're finished. That generation is doomed.


Haha...we will be at the dinner table and my 12 year old daughter will ask me to get her a fork (or something). She is half as far from the silverware drawer as I am. I often times get up, start walking over to the drawer and then catch myself and say, "hell no, I won't...get it yourself".

Doomed, indeed.

My kids get me everything but beer. Dunno why, I just don't ask them to bring me beer.
 
Next time, hit it with a little margarine on one side.

Thank me later.

My in-laws are German, they put butter on any piece of bread. It's weird. Making a sandwich with ****in' salami and stuff? Yeah, better throw some butter on it. I cant deny it's tasty but I don't do it.

I did that when I was little: pepperoni, cheese, butter. Thinking back...barf.
 
Luckily, he has 5 sisters (4 still living) and they visit him and take turns taking him out of the home for weekends. I think they are saints. I do not know if I could deal with him for a whole weekend in my house. That sounds awful to say, but he is a big man, who is blind, can hardly walk, has seizures and functions at the level of a 3 year old. That is a lot to take into your home.

I have one uncle (married to this guy's sister) who is so funny around him. He doesn't cut him breaks like everyone else and will get into arguments with him. I love to see it happen and then tell my uncle (not the handicapped one) that I'm pretty sure he lost that debate. Pisses him off to no end....

That's awesome to have that kind of family that takes care of him. And the uncle that doesn't cut slack definitely amuses me haha. I have a client who loses arguments with himself. Humorous to overhear.





I don't understand the allure of big houses. My house is about 1,500 square feet, plus a finished basement of about 1,200 square feet. I would like to have one more bedroom than we have (two kids are sharing a small room) but I wouldn't change anything else about my house.

Mine is a cape cod with 2 beds upstairs and one downstairs. The original plans called for a 4th bedroom, but they made it a dining room instead. The kitchen is way too small and needs updating, and the basement is close to a dungeon and has asbestos tiles. I love having a double lot until it's time to mow the lawn. Fortunately, I only have to do that a few months out of the year.
 
FedEx delivers on Saturday at my place... what he should do is go to the terminal and pick it up. If he cared.


I'll be home tomorrow. The terminal is around the corner from my office otherwise.

I really care about this one. Monster box of Saison yeast experiments? Yes plz.
 
When Duffman mentioned his house is 1800sq.ft. earlier, he conveniently left out mention of his 5000sq.ft. bacon barn in the backyard to store all his pork purchases. ;)

1500 square foot smoker ftw. Its really the only way to smoke meat... in that room with smoldering sequoia under a grate of solid carbonfiber. Nothing sticks to it and it really enhances the flavor. When I'm done, I'll let the meat rest of my elephant ivory counter top with platinum and blood diamond inlay.

100% of the dumb-assery that I deal with comes from older generations. But that doesn't make for a good story I guess. I'm of the opinion that lazy is lazy and dumb is dumb no matter how you are. To each his own though.
