The surf music in pulp fiction was the same age as pulp fiction is now

Simple date facts like this are millennial horror tweets
I said something like “maybe in 20 years haha” and my son you just met said “you mean when
You are 60 dad?”

And I said “rude” and laughed.

But inside I wanted to self harm.

Damn, I feel for you.  I wish I was a feisty 60 again.   :crossfingers:

Had a tooth pulled today and I'm not sold on getting some cosmetic replacement. Might just gap it.

2 months ago a scratched the hell out of the inside of my arm walking past a piece of metal. The blood spread under the skin & looked like a massive bruise. The bruise is gone, but the scratch is still red. 10 years ago this thing would have been completely within a month.

Ear hair! I mean what in the world? Comes out of nowhere!
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

the amount of youtube videos I just had to watch to figure out how to do math to then have my 6th grade son say "oh yeah I know how to do this" and then do a bunch of crap I have no idea how to do is troubling.

I can guarantee you we didn't do this crap in Meade, KS. We did real world things like manual labor. You'll learn one of these days brother. Once your OPS dips below 1.20 the gravy train is over.

I have been getting dizzy if I stand up too fast. Think it’s low blood pressure.

my hack is to flex my calves like 5 times before standing up. they call the calves the second heart. it works 100% of the time I remember to do it which is like 20% of the time.

My solution is just being unable to stand up quickly

True story... At age 39, I went from laying on the couch to jumping for joy in like 0.5 seconds when Sproles scored on the screen pass in 2003 CCG.  Mid double fist pump, the room started spinning, and the coffee table broke my fall to the floor.
 
I had coached a basketball game mid afternoon and nothing to eat since breakfast.

The boys start calling for mom upstairs as I am slowly regaining my senses.  She thinks I need medical attention.  No way prop back up on this couch until this game is over.

Similar deal with me. I've only went down once and sat down quick on the floor. had football practice like 3 weeks ago and was on the couch watching sports. stood up quick, took two or three steps, then sat down real quick. mrs. dave went into panic mode and still has a complex that I'm dying (I am, we all are, but not from this wife get it together).

I made the mistake of going to the one off 95th today an hour before chiefs kicked off. Shoulder to shoulder everywhere.

Have you checked your blood pressure?  This sounds like high BP.  My mom had it in her late years and I was always helping her get up and being ready to catch her from falling.  This could be serious; might want to see your Dr.

going during the game is one of the best times, you get the place to yourself

i don’t like the layout of the lenexa location, its a little cramped compared to the blue valley parkway one but ill stop by there sometimes anyway

the costco app just updated with warehouse inventory info!

I have very low BP, which I think is the issue.

Me too. Went to the doctor this morning and it was 128 over 84. It’s never been that high. I’m concerned.
