So i just saw a Starlink commercial and it said Starlink is available everywhere now! I looked up my address and sure enough, I can get it. Speeds up to 400 mbps. Cost? $120.00 per month. The problem? I have gig speed literally twice as fast and I pay $99.00 per month for it.

I just met the most confused man in America. - The Kroger gas station. - At the pump set in front of me. - Older gentleman. - Korean. - No English other than "OK". Driving... wait for it... A Tesla Model Y. God love him.

The Mayor of Minneapolis looks like they just dragged him out of a crack house. You knew you were going on national TV. Press your coat. Shave. Put on a damn tie. Do something with that mop you call hair. For crying out loud, man...

On showing proof of citizenship: My wife, who is Russian, has a certificate documenting the day she became a U.S. Citizen along with a flag that flew over our nation's capital that day and a letter signed by then Georgia Senator Johnny Isakson. I have none of that. At all. Looks like I'm screwed.

I don't know who started this trend of one and two word subtitles in the middle of a video, but that is the most irritating thing I have ever seen. I now instantly skip it if I see that.

The fastest way to lose a follower is to repost EVERY SINGLE POST IN YOUR FEED. Stop it. See a great post? Share it. But you don't need to share ALL of them. I'd like to read my feed, not yours.

Ring cam goes off. A shadowy figure I can't see walks past the front of my car. I go to see what it is, walk around the side of the house and there's a HUGE hawk standing there looking at me as if to say: You got a problem, Pinky? No. No problem at all. I'll head on back inside. Yeah. You do that.
