Headed to the N Ga mountains with a bunch of Pagans to go camping. Should be a hell of a party.

So he was "totally not into drugs" but ODd and died. Um...

Against illegal drugs. Caffeine is not a monitored and controlled substance. So yes, the child could have easily been anti-drug "just say no" etc and still been addicted to a legal substance (caffeine).

That's not against drugs. That's against not breaking the law. Which is totally fine, but a very different thing.

You're splitting hairs here.

A person can morally be against the use of drugs, or they can want to "not break the law". But your assumption here is that if drugs weren't illegal they'd be used (and that is a bad assumption).

My assumption is he wasn't against drugs as he took one liberally.

He took an uncontrolled substance liberally.

Eating catfish is a form of a drug, because everything is just a chemical bag in a specific form. Just because one chemical in that chemical bag can be dangerous doesn't mean you are pro drug use.

Caffeine is a drug. Plain and simple. There's nothing more to it. It's a mood enhancer.

And so are all of the chemicals in literally everything.

If we could suck serotonin and dopamine out of water does anyone think we'd bother with anything else.

If I had vials of liquid serotonin and dopamine, I would inject them straight into my eyeball if necessary. That would save a lot of unnecessary steps and calories.

well damn... funny but damn.

Why bother with the stuff that "makes me happy" if I had the happy juice at the ready?

Technically you do... its getting your body to release those chemicals at will . .

Maybe you do. Not everyone's brains make all the neurotransmitters they need. I'll take those vials of happy juice now.

Just booked my Air BnB in Toronto... and check out the decor:

Welcome back Americans - y'all have a good weekend charring and consuming some food?

Friggin rights we did! Check this bad boy out:

Served with a grilled mango and cabbage slaw.

We ended up putting the grilled mango in the dressing as it was super ripe and soft. All agreed​ that is was amazing.

I have yet to see my company take on a new contract that:

1. Already had DNS forwarders set up correctly.
2. Didn't use their domain controllers as file servers.
3. Had more than one Domain Controller/DNS server.
4. Has a renewed self-signed certificate or one that expired within a year.
5. Has a licensed UTM (They all have UTM's that are unlicensed)
6. Takes proper backups.

It's days like today where I feel oddly confident in my abilities when I see what else is going on out there

Have you been snooping on the company I work for???

Why are sweet potato fries even on this list? Totally different animal, plus you could do literally all the other styles with sweet potatoes. Good job, internet... you failed again.

Why are we still cracking on IE? MS has admitted it sucks and moved onto Edge. I have no idea if it's better, but MS isn't pushing IE anymore - in fact, they are doing everything they can to pull away from it. Not in the start tray, not in the Start menu, etc.

Edge sucks just as badly, or worse. Besides, I love to bag on IE, because we still have to use it here. When a user asks me something browser related, I always answer "it didn't work because IE is garbage, always has been. But since you aren't allowed to use a real browser for this, let's take a look..."

I literally just had to explain to our receptionist that "enter your credentials" in an RDP session means "enter your user name and password". I then had to explain what a user name and password are. I need 5 drinks. And a new receptionist that has something a little higher than mid-double digit IQ.

Jeez, Monday... how about a little lube next time???

Broke a temporary crown this a.m., had to leave work to get it fixed. On the way to the dentist I get a call saying the power had been out for a few minutes (max 15 min runtime on our UPSes). Now the network is being squirrelly. Yay Monday.

Had to put in a ticket with Cisco about the ASA. This never ends well.

It did for us... we finally decided to scrap the Cisco and got a Watchguard. That's a happy ending, because the Cisco garbage went away.

@gjacobse Stranger Things is like next week I think! Just in time for Halloween!

Which is totally different than the easily confused zend.whisky.peas

Probably going to binge the new season of Stranger Things this weekend.

Yes, Jamaica, I used to be in a roots reggae band... but y'all gotta get over it and stop calling me.
