I love that.

My gear grinder is lack of supplies and money for certain tasks I hope to accomplish. Then, when I get money, It goes to paying off my debt or savings. Another one- I got a box of Nature Valley granola bars. It was a pack that had both peanut and almonds flavors in it. When I opened it, it was all peanut! It offended me.

Thanks.

I hate nuts in granola bars. The only one I really like are Quaker's Chewy Dips or their peanut butter chocolate kinds.
On the topic of "healthy" snack foods, I personally feel that trail mix is M&Ms and pretzels with obstacles. Who wants peanuts and raisins when you could have M&Ms and pretzels?

Aw, Duckie, that sounds awful. I hope things are all okay again very soon and he feels better.

Wish it did, but it's near home and an intersection I know well and I know that one doesn't, sadly. Bet he/she knows it, too.

Stupid thing is, there is a police station right on that corner. >.> Well. I guess that's no deterrent at all.

Might kindly send a short complaint to the company via their website. They might send you a coupon for a free box to make up for it.

Plus, if it's not just a fluke it might help them know to check out their machinery to see if something isn't working right.

Edit: Just looked up their contact page and noticed the "age" section to fill out has a selection of age groups to pick from... the first being age 1-6. Those are some precocious 1-year-olds!

(Can they even eat the stuff?? lol) Yet they just gave up on the adult age groups and lumped many together as "over 35." lol

Thanks! He really liked the pic and said thank you. He said it was sweet for someone who doesnt know him to do that. He's back home again, after tests, a sonogram on his heart, and a bunch of pills to help get things back to normal. Doing better now.

No problem.

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 05-09-2016, 05:01 AM

I feel you guys! I'd need about 10 thou for what I want though. The guy whose site I libked also does custom work, and I have in mind a pair of matched sabers (like cavalry swords) with silver handles in the shape of a nude female elf with arms stretching up to hold a round moonstone slice "moon" for the pommel. Amethysts in the eyes, and a handguard like twining ivy vines. They said it would be AT LEAST that much due to size and materials.

Being really into a show and realizing a character vanished. I've been rewatching Call the Midwife and realized there was a I character I'd completely forgotten about. She just up and vanished. And it's really frustrating because I don't even recall them saying where she went. Where did you go, Jane!?

Finals and final projects.

I feel you. He didn't vanish, but when L from Death Note died I was super sad and mad.

Why I feel that the Live-Action adaptation is better then the Anime and Manga.

*Slade* · 05-09-2016, 01:14 PM

Took vacation this week since yesterday was my birthday. Well I'm f*cking sick now and will probably be sick all week...

*Utrommaniac* · 05-09-2016, 01:25 PM

The trouble with this particular character disappearing is that she really did just vanish from the story. It doesn't help that she was a very shy and quiet woman. I'm assuming she married (very, very vocal) Rev. Applebee-Thornton and they went off together to whatever he was working on, but I don't seem to recall them saying where they went.

Call the Midwife has a weird habit of having secondary characters come and go, sometimes two or three times, before cutting them out completely for whatever reason.

Can Chummy just...please come back??? I miss her!

There's a live action version?
Didn't know this, I wonder how Ryuk was handled.

Yeah, I vastly preferred him to his two "replacements". It took both Near and Mello to finally catch Light, when L did better all on his own.

I concur! The ending was SOOO much better!

Yup. It's in two parts. And Ryuk and Rem were AMAZING in CG in it!

I watched the whole series on Netflix. But L was the best character.

Coincidentally, I was rewatching it last week.

...But again I stop when L dies. lmfao, in my world, Death Note's anime ends when L dies. My brother does this with Bambi [he stops the movie before his mother dies] so that it never happens in the story.

Clearly, my family has healthy problem management skills. :V
