Looks like we're doing this again… I wonder if the town did a cost analysis to see how much it would increase taxes to just do it all for us.

Obviously in the grand scheme of things this isn’t a good thing, but I have to wonder if the garbage truck operators consider this to be worth extra points.

While I would appreciate a little more context, I think this is fine. It’s really saying “…when you can” rather than assuming the recipient has the same priorities and timeline.

If it were a real emergency, my mom would call. The rarity of her calls shows how urgent they are.

Sure, there's no good in being right and dead. But flip the whole thing around.

There's nothing stopping you from not noticing the pedestrian with right-of-way and getting away with out penalty.

But what good is being legally innocent if you killed someone?

You know you live in rural-adjacent Alberta when you hear about a flyer and based on the prices you might assume either single-family homes or farm equipment

I wish English had other common words for winter/spring/summer-y periods like we have “autumn” for 🍂 and can thus distinguish it from astronomical fall without having to say extra words.

That does it, I’m going to have to start walking around with a pair of secateurs and giving myself the headroom I need to not take a detour onto the lawn.

Being tall is hard and I wouldn’t normally complain but these are dropping down to block the path of even the shortest of adults now.

Surely there can’t be legal repercussions for me doing a little trimming, right?

14 years ago, a recently new Internet acquaintence sent out stickers to people who gave him their address on Tumblr.

Today I found my "OHEY" sticker in a stack of files I thought was empty. Life is good.

“Only people born before a certain year will know what this is.”

Gotta love living somewhere that has health warnings for both really hot days and really cold days. (Not joking; our weather is great 50 weeks out of the year)

I attempted to plot a bunch of types of cameras on a cartesian plane of fashion coolness vs photography coolness.

Any changes or additions I should make?

A different social circle of mine has been sharing personal bingo cards so I might as well stick mine here as well.
