Why do onions ruin everything?

Ordered a "Chicken Stir-Fry" from a popular place that rhymes with "Cry Success" and I swear it was 80% onions, 10% broccoli and carrot and 10% chicken.

Onions as flavoring? No problem. Onions in my mouth to chew on? UGH 🤢 🤮

Onions... always ruining a good thing

Scored this Jada Toys Street Fighter Guile (Player 2 variant) yesterday on my lunch break. I already have the regular green version.

Swore I’d only collect the other ones if they “fell into my lap” as in, not hunting it down from store to store.

Sure enough, it landed in the one store near where I’m currently working. What are the odds? 😇😅

People who use outdoor furniture... when do you have the time or energy to enjoy it?

I have furniture in the backyard all wrapped and covered in a tarp for winter. The last couple of summers, we were so busy and the weather was so uncooperative that we never ended up using any of it (despite spending hours cleaning it all up at the start of summer)

I might get an hour to indulge in a cigar here and there but entertaining guests or just lounging on a summer day seems so far out of reach.

The last couple of weeks have me in a dusty warehouse preparing inventory for a sales website.

It's a dirty production job taking photos of items and listing them on a website. A departure from the regular PowerPoints and E-blasts I usually get to design.

The things we do to stay off the dreaded list of potential layoffs 😩

My teacher-wife is incredible. She devised an Easter Egg scavenger hunt around the house from the Easter Bunny loosely based around the show Amazing Race.

She had my kid run around the house getting clues from riddles inside colorful eggs before finally discovering her mega Easter basket filled with candies and crafts.

My kid was losing their mind with excitement.

These two drive me crazy most days but occasionally they’ll rock my world 🤓😊

I had a dream about popcorn last night. I eat a lot of popcorn despite my lack of consistent flossing - don’t judge me.

Anyway, in my dream, instead of the typical powdery chalky shaker flavours, they had DORITOS shakers with crispy flavoured chip crumble!

All the different flavors of Doritos but as toppers for your buttery popcorn!

Someone send Frito-Lays my idea and tell them where to send me my MILLIONS!

It's a slippery slope...
I had to do some concrete work in the garden during the week, embedding the base of a rotary washing line (and yes, I'm aware that a real handy-man would have mixed his own concrete rather than using premixed, just-add-water, cake mix-style concrete, but its the first time I've ever done this, okay?), and now I'm considering getting some tools and mortar to repair part of the front garden wall that has toppled over.
*sigh*
What was that I was saying about "I don't do DIY"?

I find social media interaction a very tough nut to crack.

It's been incredibly difficult getting consistent interaction with my posts. I know people see my stuff, I'm getting views. I just can't get people to like or comment or share which is puzzling

It's all insignificant and is not a reflection of my work (LinkedIn) BUT it does have me up some nights wondering why some posts do well and others don't.

Maybe I need to show some skin... Is there a demand for bald depressed dads on Onlyfans?
