I overdosed on OREO double filled cookies awhile back. Now when I eat a regular OREO I feel like I'm getting cheated.

I gotta ask, does every post of mine make you think of Double Stuf Oreos? That's a very old and obscure reference at this point, so much so that it doesn't even qualify as a forum in-joke anymore, so it's kind of sad that you're still stuck on it. But, if that's how it is, I suggest you block me (i.e., add me to your Foes list, in your user control panel) so that you won't see my posts anymore. Maybe then you can get back to posting about insurance company mascots, or whatever.

Either way, I'm blocking you. It's nothing personal, I'm just reducing the noise…

Sorry.

edit:
Thanks. Learned something new today. Never knew it existed. Always thought it was a joke or a facebook thing.
I thought you liked Oreos with all the research you did. It was the first time I tried the double fill and I ate too many and was sorry for it. Sticking with the regular conservative one.

I went to a paint bar for the first time last night. You know, where you can drink, eat, be merry and try and follow along to someone painting a picture? Yeah it was fun but I went rogue pretty early on and just painted my own thing that was close to the original. Of course time ran out at the end, I panicked because the group was with was ready to leave so it remains unfinished.

I’d do it again though. It was fun. We even got to add songs to the running playlist. I abused that very much.

Quiet in here. I broke down and got an air fryer. After getting it, the size is a little big. But, I don’t think I’ll ever do without it again. I cooked chicken and little potatoes in it tonight for dinner. Two things I’ve always struggled with to cook right. They both cooked quickly, so quickly I was skeptical it worked. But my chicken was super moist and the potatoes were crispy and creamy on the inside. Now I want to roast everything! Brussel sprouts, carrots, all the things!!!!

The only drawback is the size. My kitchen is rather tiny and this is pretty big. I’ll have to juggle things around and make it work because I see myself using it, a, lot!

Hmm, I don’t really have room for extra appliances, but that sounds tempting!

It does sound tempting. Though I think the only way I could fit one in my kitchen is to just get rid of my deep fryer.

I finally met my current insurance plan's out of pocket. It was $1,000 this year. I guess my latest x-rays did the trick.
I've been looking into advantage plans, which is honestly headache inducing. The biggest things for me are co-pay costs and whether all my drugs will be covered or not.

I've always been curious about air fryers, wondering if they actually worked as advertised. I don't think we would get enough use out of one to invest, but if I ever get the chance to eat something cooked in one I'm taking advantage of it.

Giving Youtube Premium a try.
The ads on mobile as well as the increasing number of videos that could only be accessed as a Youtube Premium subscriber made me decide to at least experience the first trial month.

Though how they think they can charge 11,99 €/$ while something like the upcoming Disney Plus is 6,99€/$ is pretty nuts.
Different target audiences but still. With Disney Plus and Apple's streaming service launching soon, I hope prices settle to about 9,99€/$ per streaming service.
I'm already paying for the highest Netflix Plan and use Amazon Prime.

[Zunu]

I have YT Premium for a long time, from back when it was (only) the Google Play Music plan. It's definitely better than just watching with the constant ads, but most major YT channels have embedded sponsor pitches in their shows, so it doesn't entirely eliminate advertising.

So I teach 8th grade math and we were going over a word problem that involves someone sending a photo on Facebook, and my students were all like, “They need to change this problem. Who uses Facebook? Only my mom uses Facebook.”
