You're going to pass this "exam" and if your place is reasonably good, you're fine.

I'd prefer you dead, rather than alive.

Oh this is so tough, but without thinking too hard, Sweet Caroline.

Not really, though I need to see what I have. If not, i'll need to buy one

The midnight amazement factor of when i first saw it wore off. I still want it. This may be it...just gotta see what a reasonable price for a nice one is for one of these and see if i can find one.

I see a serviced and nice looking one from a watch restoration website for 700. No idea if thats getting hosed or not.

They're fine and even if i didnt like em who cares

Good. the only correct way to play madden: without having paid for it.

What a trash franchise.

Feast your eyes on this 1940 Girard Perregaux "Shell" Presentation model

This was comissioned by the Shell Oil Company to promote their oils, not even made for watches, to show how smooth they ran.

Their oil sucked because it wasn't made for watches and they needed cleaned frequently, but it looks so cool. And the one I am looking at has had modern service with modern oil.

Open face watches are hit or miss but MAN this one hits.

i aint in love with it but I like the fact it has 24 hr markings.

the hands are a no for me and I ain't sold on seconds subdials, so eh

Folks, I am looking for a new pocket watch. I am so excited, but I don't know what to get

I wear it around my neck on a chain, and for a while now i've been rocking this 1960s Tissot

https://assets.catawiki.nl/assets/2016/7/22/a/5/7/a5743bd8-5030-11e6-84fb-5477d87b4479.jpg

It runs, but not well, and isn't quite that vibrant looking.

I get a LOT of compliments on the dang watch, at this point genuine compliments have eclipsed flavor flav remarks. So, I need to keep it fresh

https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/-M0AAOSwOkRhG4h5/s-l1600.jpg

This one has since sold, but if I got it cleaned up, dang that would look nice.

I feel like I should get a modern one. I see some Tissot sells now that look kinda sharp, but I feel like going retro(or really just not a current available offering from a company, not necessarily old) would be the way to go. and it'd be cheaper probably.

https://www.tissotwatches.com/en-us/t8604052903201.html

It doesn't have to be a Tissot, though I like the brand. As far as i've seen, it's a good well known "budget" watch brand.

Then it comes into things like: what do I want it to do?

I don't need it to tell the date. I would like 24hr markings if I can, but if I see something just that good, well...

STP baby

you know whats gay?

stuff. but only some of it.

How is that offensive? Ed Asner was not in Hook, Who Framed Rodger Rabbit, or that Mario movie. I liked all those movies, but Ed Asner wasn't in them.

Yikes dude the guy JUST DIED.

give the body time to cool off.

When it comes to spicy I actually like my stuff on the weaker side, because I am actually a "wimp" with hot stuff. I am a wimp because while I will try any heat level on anything or even straight up, as far as actually eating and enjoying food otherwise, keep it on the mild side for me.

I've wanted to try one for a while, and a friend of mine grew them this year.

I was going to eat one whole pepper, but was told that was a bad idea. Okay, so I just had a slice of one.

It smells like it is going to be hot as heck, and it was. By far the hottest thing I have ever had.

I have two super hot hot sauces in my fridge: insanity sauce and something from tropical pepper company. Those are really hot but do not in any way compare to the Carolina.

The mouth feel of heat wasn't quite as bad as I was expecting, but it gave me an upset stomach and I threw up about half an hour later.

I wanted to try it, but never again. That smell and the burps I had(that recall that hot taste) will give me small nightmares.

Cross that off the list, but dang...I didn't have fun.

Nah jk MTM was a funny show

Who

tomorrow i am going to try a carolina reaper pepper. probably just a small piece of it.

i cant wait

how much did you pay for that watch? i have a hamilton as well. the khaki field automatic, or the khaki king 2

This was around $500 or $550

We dont have a doorman so we check at the register. Groups of college kids will be denied if one member doesnt have ID

I need to convey that anybody who enters my store is subject to having their ID checked even if they aren't purchasing. I need to make that short and snappy to put on a sign people will read and i am having trouble.

Help a guy out.

3 pocket watches

damn dude what are they

a bunch of em

I haven't done any looking into it in a long time, but when I cared about trolls I suspect one or a few people control an absolute shitload of accounts.

Steak. Maybe. I dont know. 5 pounds of food is a lot to eat and keep down in one sitting.

Water is the easiest choice because thats not even a gallon but that doesn't count. Hmm.

I am not sure. I love steak and i see a lot of restaurants have steak challenges of 5 pounds or thereabouts so fuck it ill go steak.

I love steak and do not like it well done but yeah id do it. I can afford all the tatsy pulled pork, ribs snd brisket i want so no huge loss.

I saw this at the store and thought "hmm..Bavarian Purity Law? How could I go wrong?"

This is....like water. It has little flavor, and I guess every country has a Bud Light.

However, unlike Bud Light, this isn't really a light beer, even though it kinda tastes like one. It had 5.2% abv, which is higher than you'd expect. Plus it tastes inoffensive. Boring but inoffensive.

SO

what is an actual rockin' german beer?

what the fuck pearl jam

Why? I imagine Scooter is all like "No! Maria! Don't leave me! I like it loud and I can PROVE IT!"

what about tina turner?

I didn't scroll down the first time I read this topic, I simply saw the first image and was cringing hard and exited.

Well, the finished version is pretty neat.

His goal is to be as annoying as possible.

I find it kind of...odd...that people think he has actual beliefs and thoughts when it comes to most things. He posts what will get a rise out of people, and certainly, saying kek is annoying as shit, so....

the first rule about PO is no VR.

This customer comes in, super loopy, probably heroin or something like it. couldn't form coherent sentences, asking all kinds of weird questions....

She was in the store for five minutes, my coworker whispers to me she thinks she has something in her bag.

Customer apporoaches the front, and is asking questions when I can see the neck and cap of a vodka bottle sticking out of her purse ever slightly. This is the same neck and cap style a lot of companies use, like Titos(just a black cap and not copper color).

She doesn't buy anything, but on her way out I say "Miss, do you have something in your bag"

and she proceeds to pull out this item, which we do not sell:

https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1734/7127/products/Faber_Square_1024x1024.jpg?v=1586294208

Easily confused for this item, which we DO sell

So I simply said "Miss, I am sorry. You may leave"

The Faber company did switch to making hand sanitizer during the pandemic and I have seen these bottles before.

That could have been the ultimate cover for actual theft, and if so, fuck, that's pretty inventive so while I don't like criminals or theft...gotta give props where it is due. But I did see on the camera her fiddling for a minute with our cart wipes, so maybe she is just really into being sanitized.

this morning after a shit and pee and in just underwear: 183.8.

I think I've mostly returned to normal. That is within the range I've been at for nearly a year.

My measurements are uneven but id never do it in shoes. I took a physical a month ago and they didnt ask me to take my shoes off. The nurse took off 2 pounds for the shoes. Kinda wanted a more accurate measurement myself but

Anyways today is day 3 in a row of eating around 2000 calories (important to note this sustained over a couple of months is how i lost 30 pounds initially) so we will see ass naked after a pee and shit tomorrow nornjng

I know part of it was I didn't weigh myself in the morning before I ate while naked every time. Today I did weigh myself in the morning after a pee and with just underwear on.

I generally try to weigh myself in the morning after I go to the bathroom with no/minimal clothes on, but even after eating, with clothes on, whatever, I've never been above 190 for any reason in a long time.

Before I left for vacation in late july, I weighed myself at 182, which is about where I normally am - I did lose around 30-35 pounds in the past few years, and the lowest ive gotten down to was 178...this is within range, and normal.

I go on vacation. I didn't feel like I ate a ton, and I went for one long hike(around 2-3 hours) and was walking a decent bit other days.

I come back from vacation, one day my friend made ribs and sides so I ate a shit ton of it, and then two days later I had some other friends over and crushed two large pizzas with them. Horrible, I know, but...

I actually felt like I gained weight. Like, my stomach seemed like it was bigger, and not just bloatedness or whatever.

I get on the scale and it reads 196! What the hell is this? I figure a lot of it is water weight/need to shit it out, but that is a gain of 14ish pounds in like 2 weeks.

So, the past two days i've been trying to eat less, and it's working. I got on the scale today and it said 185. So I didn't actually gain a ton of weight, but i've never seen weight fluctuations like that before, regardless of how much I eat or how much water I drink.

I'm going to eat less food for a few more days and see if I truly return to normal.

"Did you say nerd?"

between one and 320 kbps, I still want the one that is factually better?

right? factually?
