Behind every good sniper is a good spotter.

So what you’re saying… is that penguins are…

Why are you like this?

There is no enjoying a sick day like when you were a kid if you need a note. What is the #1 thing that doctors recommend for minor illness? Rest (and fluids). What am I not doing if I’m calling my PCP to see if i can make a day-of appointment, or checking the nearest urgent cares to see if they have any slots available, and driving or taking public transit to said appointment, and waiting up to 4 hours for my name to be called, and then waiting for the provider to come to the room, and then making the trek home. Go on, guess. I’ve got time. I’m just sitting here listening attentively for my name.

You really, as a sick person, need get up early to get a head start at the urgent care just so you can get home at a reasonable hour to do the thing that will make you healthy enough to work the next day.

It made sense to me. I also struggled to phrase it without sounding like I was insulting them for misunderstanding you.

I think they meant “aren’t all protons the same as other protons?, neutrons as other neutrons?, etc.”

A diamond in the rough.

But it’s more fun because you get to make more of them.

/s, because last time I didn’t, people took me seriously…

Over the state line

This just confirms that the older you get the more conservative you become.

Edit: whelp, I guess I should have put the /s on there. I was hoping I didn’t need it given the context.

That’s why have that paper barrier stuck to the handle of the ice cream cones. And kudos to you for finding a McD’s with a functioning ice cream machine.

This has to be an onion headline at this point, no?

Subway is a little different because it’s often the same person taking cash as making the food. Money is dirty and the register doesn’t get sanitized too often either. The option is wash your hands with soap and water after taking payment or slap on some fresh gloves. Those loose gloves are a faster changeover than properly washing your hands. And they don’t have to be sterile, just clean.

In a McDonalds you have separate folks doing the prepping & cooking vs the ordering and serving. If the person the person touching the food never touches the register, and the person handling the ordering/serving only touches the outside of the packaging, then neither of them have to wash their hands as often.

The problem with rubber gloves in food service is they provide a false sense of security. They make you think you are being sanitary, when the reality is you should wash or change your gloves anytime you touch something that would have necessitated you to wash bare hands.

Indeed.

Same, but for tea and maté. Though sometimes if I crank too much mate too quickly, I’ll get hyper anxious for the rest of the day. Not buzzed or jittery, just the sense that everything I’ve been working towards is about to come crashing down upon me… and still exhausted.
