Well I’m not going to vote for Biden after that “garbage” comment he made. Such violent rhetoric.

It gets me every damn time it comes up in my feed. It’s infuriating… and then funny… mostly funny : D

Years ago I threw a party for work friends and acquaintances where I had 30 confirmed and 10 tentative (from calendar invite). I bought a variety of drinks (alcoholic and non) and bought/cooked food for about 50 to ensure there was plenty.

EDIT: I should note that this was a recurring yearly party that got bigger and bigger over 5 years until it just died. Pre COVID.

The blank look of “what the hell are you talking about” threw me for a loop. So, then we talked about file systems for awhile…
