That's rough. Just out of curiosity, what do you do in that situation? Do they all get failing grades or do you take the whole class to task and make them write the whole thing over?

Just been wondering about this lately. Is it just that he's too good at playing various shades of creeps? I don't find him a great actor, but he's always been a solid utility man in my opinion.

Why do so many people seem to hate Justin Long? I don't mean his oft-smarmy characters, I mean Justin Long as a person. I don't know jackshit about the guy as a human being. As an actor, he always does a solid job of playing a jerk and seems to be the "name" to get a lot of things financed.

Got up at 6:30 to get to work two hours early to continue training one of my new employees and they called in sick. I'm not in a good mood.

Covid truly did a number on us. People have been trained to believe if they're not emailing other people constantly, it will be assumed that they're not working.

And because I'm a glutton for punishment, I decided to go through my work email tonight and start answering things.

It's amazing. You take off ONE DAY during the week to not even fully make up for working both weekend days and people hit you with over a hundred emails and followups.

Tomorrow begins the work insanity for real as I have to be in two hours early to continue training a new employee and then on Friday, I have to be in three hours early to train another new employee, and Saturday is an eleven hour day to train both of them. I'm already exhausted.

Quick Q: Do I know anyone who either shoots video interviews in Vancouver, or does anyone know someone who shoots video in Vancouver and maybe even has a location? Shares would be HUGELY appreciated - this is for a doc project.

Thanks, all!

Ah, yeah. Let's maybe not play Kingery at third base for...Oh, the rest of the season?

Gee whiz. Nico Hoerner's gonna have an OBP around .450 for the season if he keeps this up.

Can you imagine if Angel Hernandez or Joe West were still umpiring with the current ball/strike challenge system? If they had a player challenge more than once, they'd eject them from the game.

(And Hernandez would have the worst umpire record of calls overturned by a wide margin.)

Not shocking at all.

Can't remember whose memoirs I read (maybe Don Coscarelli?) where they talked about briefly being courted by rich Hollywood producers who would take them out to expensive restaurants, treat the waitstaff like shit and then tip nothing.

Anyone with the money to waste on something this stupid is bound to be an entitled jagoff. Good riddance.

Der, I guess that should be contracted, not expanded.

My ignorance of pop culture for anyone under the age of 40 is being expanded by working in a public library again, but I do get tired of children’s librarians looking at me like I’m an idiot.

Wait, so K-Pop Demon Hunters is a movie and not some never ending manga?

Tutoring your undead friend? That’s EVIL DEAD LEARN.

Two wheels > four

I cannot stress enough how much good being back on the bike has been for my mental health. It was getting really rough there for a good six month stretch.

A pint of beer.

A beautiful, sunny warm April day and I don’t have to work? That equals a leisurely twenty mile bike ride and an early afternoon pint.

Saw someone mention HALLOWEEN KILLS on here and was reminded that I strongly believe David Gordon Green should have faced jail time for crapping that thing out.

I would love it if those of you who do not have library cards will apply for one at your local branch during #NationalLibraryWeek. Then let me know about it. 😇

Man, I can't believe the season finale of The Pit was the bad guys filling in the pit.*

*I've never watched The Pit. I assume it's a workplace comedy about being a quarryman.
