You have Nutella smoothies? Tell me more.

It only looks nasty because it was all over everything, I don't have anything against Nutella at all.

 

I actually just had a similarly nasty experience with catfood -- one of the cans exploded, and smelled to high heaven when I got home today (I received it last week some time, and it had exploded probably during packing -- not even shipping, the box was fine).

 

And it, too, looked nasty.

 

EDIT:  So nasty -- it had started to mold, that's what I was smelling.  Hairy like a caterpillar mold.  (involuntarily shudders)

We have a little bit of everything to go in our smoothies at work.  Nutella is quite good in a smoothie.

I can't think of anything much worse than wasted Nutella, especially with the Great HazelNut Shortage of 2015. Turkey needs to get their act together and defeat ISIS and make peace with the Kurds so they can steal Iraq's water. If not my kids lunches will be ruined forever. Not to mention the global impact on Smoothie Bars and Crepeirs.

So where can I buy HazelNut futures?

I suppose I should try Nutella, eh?

I highly recommend you don't.

 

Also do not try Speculoos Cookie Butter. 

Speaking of very odd Amazon shipping choices, I ordered some shower trim and nozzles via Prime Same Day a short while back.  At about 9:30PM, a red car pulled up next to my house and sat there for a minute.  I had no idea who it was; I figured the guy was lost or something.  I stood by the door peephole to see what was up.  The guy got out and walked toward my door, so I opened it a bit (I live in a safe area but was still on guard).  While holding the Amazon package, he asked if my name was the one on the package and then delivered it to me.  Intrigued, I watched as he got back into his car and drove off.  He had a GPS unit and was doing deliveries on behalf of Amazon.

 

That's the only time that happened thus far, but what the fuck?  That is some shady shit.  Uber delievery, anyone?

As I recall, in some locations they had advertised same day deliveries.  Was that it?

Was he a drone?  Maybe this is that new-fangled "drone delivery" ah keep hearin' 'bout.

 

I wonder where the queen was.  You know she controls 'em with hormones.

Just caught Dusty's cat mold food story.....Tapatalk on a phone screen means I miss some things

 

That made me shudder a bit too.

 

What kind of cat food that you get it shipped?

Cheaper, that's all.

 

Anyway, they're shipping out another case (yes, just for one exploded can).

Cool, good on them to send a whole case.

 

Me: I sent my resignation email this morning.

Did it feel good?

The email did feel good, to some extent; it was just to my immediate boss, though, who i like a lot.  The fallout will be MUCH better 

 

Already my boss told me that he forwarded it to his manager and an a-hole director I've complained about, just before a meeting with them and some others.  That Director was shaken up some, apparently stumbling over words in the meeting and not 100% concentrating.

 

He now knows that a critical project is at an even greater risk without my knowledge/experience.  He also knows I will - tactfully - say some less-then-stellar things about him.

Sitting at the airport waiting for my flight and of course my 3 month old iPad Air 2 decides to no longer turn on.

Did you try a force restart, Jeff (hold sleep/wake + home for at least 10 seconds)?

My mom's Air 2 has locked up a few times, as you are describing. Nate's recommendation has worked each time for hers.

Yeah I got it working but surprisingly for the first time in a long time I am on a United flight that is not one of those stupid little planes and I have WiFi and DirectTV.

I love the move to allowing you to use your personal device for inflight stuff. No more garbage screens.

Fucking United got me to Chicago but now they have neither attendants nor flight officers to continue on to Phoenix.

That sucks, Jeff. Fly to TX to pick up your car and drive the rest of the way?

 

**BRENT**

You say that, like its a bad thing, Jeff.

On the plane, completely full at 687 degrees with 600% humidity.

I miss flying United.  Never.
