I had to do a double take when I thought you said poison or baloney.

I haven't been to McDonald's in a few years but I stopped into one for breakfast on a recent road trip and discovered that a single hash brown is now $2.50 plus tax!

Realistically, a hash brown probably should cost that much when you consider the number of people involved in creating, transporting, and serving it to you but I don't think we're seeing wages support that.

I think that might depend on who you're hiring though. That's the same line our boss told me when they pushed me back to the office. But in the time since then, we have hired several new staff who actually prefer to communicate digitally. They will email, teams, phone, or text me with questions before actually seeking me out in person.

It was sarcasm, hence the /s

Oof, this one hit hard for me. I've been working a lot of hours lately and I need to start putting my actual life as a priority. Thanks for this.

This is exactly how I feel. I have so many things to do that sometimes I get overwhelmed and end up doing nothing. Then I beat myself up that I just wasted that time (intentionally doing nothing is better than doing nothing out of anxious paralysis). Even when I try to intentionally relax, I find myself recounting all the things I "should" be doing instead. I've learned that I need to stop shouldding on myself. I still do it, but at least I'm aware of it and watch out for it now.

My grandma hid in a nearby woods with a small candlelight and gave treats to whoever dared approaching.

Fuckin What?! I love it, it sounds awesome, but can you imagine, "strange woman lures kids into the forest with candy", that would never happen today.

I liked the theatrical ending. It may have been somewhat ambiguous but it certainly felt like it was the end for John Wick, whether he died or that he was actually free now. I'm disappointed, but not surprised, that they're rolling out #5 just because #4 made money. I think it's time for John's story to end. Not to say that the world they built needs to end, I'm looking forward to the spin off shows. I personally find it a little tiring to have each film set up the antagonist as the best-of-the-best/top-of-the-top for John to overcome (which is why it's so satisfying when he does) only for the goalposts to move and reveal an even bigger/better villain in the next movie.

If it's done right, coconut cream pie is my favourite for sure. But raspberry is a close second.
