My new gear grinder......all these pitbull attacks recently. Been 3 of them in the past 24 hours involving little kids. People need to train their dogs better and people need to keep a better eye on their kids. All those kids that were attacked, wandered off, came across said dog that was either locked up or tied up and tried to hug or play with the dog.

Not even pitbulls, just dogs in general. Some people I see walking their dogs, it's like they don't even care if their dog does something to other people. Or they'll calmly just be like "Don't worry, they won't bite you".....Don't care if that might be true,you can't just have your dog doing certain stuff around strangers and not expecting people to overreact abit when the dog might just suddenly start barking at them when passing by on the sidewalk.

And similar for kids too. Parents need to keep better eye on them for sure. I've seen so many times where parents are walking with their kids somewhere on a busy street, and the kid might be like 30-40 feet ahead of the parent. Sure,they're within eye distance and all,but still, anything could happen,especially in a fairly busy section with lots of cars/people.

I don't knew where you from but we just had a kid get killed by a pitbull last night down here in the Tampa area. Kid was only 6 iirc.

Microtransactions.

I have MLB Home Run Derby for my iPhone. It's pretty fun. I really want to unlock Giancarlo Stanton and his 101 power rating.

I could buy the necessary currency to do it. For 20 bucks.

Or I could save currency (aka tickets, in the game). Giancarlo costs 700 tickets. Every time I win the Home Run Derby I get...... 5 tickets.

**** this and **** free-to-play. That crap is going to kill gaming someday.

Pay2Win model is plaguing a lot of games.

Most casual players, newbies get frustrated they don't have the time/skill to grind out the the rewards in a game, so in fear of the player base shrinking the Developers just allow them to buy the high end rewards with real world currency.

When people put together a bunch of words without spaces to mock "typical reactions" of people.

Today's Best Buy Deal of the Day is just cruel to people, especially if they don't look at the specifics closely enough.

Keep in mind I already have a briefcase for my laptop, but a backpack wouldn't be too bad either.





Not exactly like these are bundled items anyway, but put them right next to each other and you can't help but think that one supplements the other.

The fact that I have to go to a meeting at noon today. Who schedules a noon meeting? Seriously?

Not sure I understand, is that too late? Too early? You have a phobia about not casting a long enough shadow?

It's just more of an annoyance than anything. Normally my lunch break consist of 1 of 3 things. 1) Going to play basketball with a group of guys who meet up at the gym at noon. 2) going home with my wife to let our dogs out. 3) Going to eat somewhere and stuff my face.. which I'm currently on a diet so that is not an option.

Basically, all of those are screwed by a noon meeting. Also add in the fact that wife works with me too and will also be in the meeting. She the payroll supervisor and Tuesday afternoon is their crunch-time when it comes to getting payroll in. So more than likely it's either go at 11 or not go at all.

What makes it even worse is it's a meeting about "voluntary enhancement to our medical plan" which cost about 1800 a year and neither of us are interested in. However, only a select few people were invited and if we don't go our boss is the type to hold that **** against you.

I mean, missing on lunch certainly is not that big of a deal and I realize this is pretty petty. It's just grinds my gears when they literally could have picked any other time of day and it wouldn't have mattered. But like I said #firstworldproblems

I'll take your noon meeting and raise it with a 4pm meeting on a Friday.

Don't they know I leave early on Fridays??

There's a special place in hell for those people.

The good news about the noon meeting was that they brought in Greek and Lebanese food, so my lunch wasn't that unhealthy.

The bad news afterwards I received this in an email from my wife... Titled "Not It"
