Hope you're feeling better btw.

I still feel down but I know it is just one of those spells that I gotta work through. It sucks but I'm used to it. I indulged in capitalism to give myself something to look forward to.

I eat salads without lettuce that are delicious and filling and the worst thing I'll ever put on one is whole fat feta. Git gud scrub.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #28562 on:** November 03, 2015, 11:03:00 AM »

Who eats lettuce salads outside of babies and the elderly? I use spinach like a real person.

Kara · « **Reply #28563 on:** November 03, 2015, 01:19:07 PM »

Spinach + kale.

CatsCatsCats · « **Reply #28564 on:** November 03, 2015, 01:23:06 PM »

Kale is bullshit. Spinach is great. I do feel like people who unilaterally shit on lettuce probably just tried iceberg and gave up.

Roquette

Actually, the dressing is what makes most of the salad

I love that, VK. So much flavor from so little a leaf.

Learning to replace lettuce with spinach is one of the best things I've discovered as an adult.

I bought the latest Kindle Voyage. It's such a magical piece of technology. I love that the screen is flush with the bezel, surprised it's taken this long to get it there. The backlight is significantly better than previous models and the haptic feedback next page buttons on the side are super neat.

If anyone else runs into spinach problems replace it with arugula.

So this just happened.

Went to Subway to get some sammiches and after the girl behind the counter rings us up, she goes "are you a gamer? You ARE?! Did you play BLOPS 3 yet?! YOU DID?! You like it? It's better than Advanced Warfare?!? Are you getting Fallout 4? WAIT YOU HAVE IT NOW!? IT'S OUT?!?! OMG YOU JUST MADE MY DAY I GOTTA GO BUY IT AFTER WORK!!! I keep on watching Twitch streams and let's plays of BLOPS it looks awesome!!!!!"

My wife, who doesn't play games, is just like:

It then hit me that at work, in a place full of nerds, not one person has said a word about either one of those games.

To be fair, half her tinder pics are of her in spandex doing insane shit on a stripper poll. I just want to know if she extends those abilities to crime fighting.

If it's something you wouldn't post on The Bore, you probably shouldn't say that either.

Coffee is a fantastic drug as long as you get a constant supply of caffeine into your bloodstream. Quitting cold turkey is not a fun experience.

Fifstar · « **Reply #28605 on:** November 15, 2015, 01:14:19 PM »

It makes me more restless than actually concentrated. I think most of the effect that regular coffee drinkers experience is that they need the coffein to get on their regular level.

It's definetly worth it for the flavour though. Didn't drink coffee for the first 32 years of my life and I'm becoming a fiend now.

Crash Dummy · « **Reply #28606 on:** November 15, 2015, 01:44:17 PM »

yeah i managed to avoid coffee until i started working in an office with a free coffee machine

brawndolicious · « **Reply #28607 on:** November 15, 2015, 02:04:09 PM »

Caffeine is good for a morning pickup but don't use it for staying up late working. It fecks your concentration at that point and will give you a headache. I usually have less than 250 mg/day but can feel it a little when I skip a day.

Today I learned you can't rent the original star wars trilogy. So stupid with the new movies around the corner.

archnemesis · « **Reply #28608 on:** November 15, 2015, 02:30:13 PM »

I avoid caffeine in the evenings. You don't want it to mess with your sleep schedule.

It's very individual. I need a four hour break from it. A co-worker of mine swears he can't drink an espresso after 1 PM.

Well I'm still addicted. I get an awful headache if I have no coffee by 7am. But I don't need much. I got addicted to the coffee at work and the caffeine probably barely registers. I just need my morning fix

I conquered drinking Guinness IPA and a bottle of Yellow Tail Shiraz but I was so disgusted with the conquest that I went and bought an absolutely disgusting orange liqueur to cleanse my soul.

Probably will do a full write-up, but the Yellow Tail was so revolting that I had to let it aerate overnight.

Also it's not a $7 wine, it is in fact a sub-$5 wine, which makes the fact that I found it on the bottom shelf at the store all the more apropos.

It may be worth noting that Charles Shaw is now just a label applied to other vineyards' surplus wine. Anyone who knows better please correct me. I haven't indulged since the "two buck chuck" days.

I haven't had Shaw since since my early Twenties and I don't think I've ever had Franzia. Franzia doesn't bother with a Syrah I gather, but maybe Shaw does.

This article from July says Shaw is still a real vintner.
