You might as well pour that into hot chocolate when you disgrace the taste of coffee with these vile flavors. coffeemate is just chilled flavored glue. When that strong bold coffee flavor hits me, it wakes me up more than the caffeine probably. Mmmmm boiled dirt.

 
The only time I like sweetened coffee is if its iced or one of those canned coffee drinks for a caffeine boost. STOK made a really good one with protein in it, but they discontinued it I think.

ROTFLMAO. I love coffee. And even worse in your eyes I only drink bold dark roast. Which is the most brutally bitter of all of them. mostly because I enjoy the flavor, but also again with acid reflux, its the least acidic. I pour a little half and half in it and thats it. All that flavored cream and syrup is blasphemy. 
I never could do energy drinks. I did like the flavored red bulls, but they're so bad for you I stopped as fast as I started. Monster and Rockstar are nasty af to me. The after taste of cough syrup is just too much. Bang is pretty good, but it makes me sweat with very little activity. Its just way too much caffeine at once. Its more than half the daily recommended intake.

I can't stand sparkling water so more power to you for being able to stomach it (water should not be carbonated, it's just wrong). Funny thing I stopped drinking pop (or soda as you call it) for like 8 years (also quit drinking alcohol as well since I mostly drank mixed drinks) and now all of a sudden I'm back to drinking it again and I'm really disappointed in myself (though in retrospect I really can't be, even though I gave up pop I was throwing back 2 cans of NOS or Monster a day, can't do that anymore since I was diagnosed with high blood pressure. Drinking an energy drink now makes me sick as fuck and causes some serious chest pain due to the hbp meds I'm on). It's not like I'm drinking half a twelve pack like I did when I was a teen, I drink one Sprite a day (I don't consider it pop considering there's no caffeine in it) and I drink 2 cans of Code Red on Saturdays and Sundays (I'm so wiped out from the week at work I need that caffeine just to get through the weekend) it's still a disappointment that I gave it up for that long only to cave in again.
I tend to stick more towards plain water (due to what I do at work I drink like 4-5 bottles of water a day, more if it's during the summer (working in a shop in 90+ degree weather fucking sucks)), low calorie Gatorade (for the lack of sodium, hbp and all), and tea (not your sweet tea (can't stand it), I stick to my Nestea).
I still don't know how people drink coffee, That shit is disgusting

Digital. I doubt I'll ever buy physical again.

I've had dandruff issues my whole life. I guess because my hair is super thick. Every barber has always made a comment about it my whole life about how thick my hair is. Try T/Sal. I think its new? T/Gel works too but damn it smells like road tar or asphalt. When i was a young kid my mom always made me use T/Gel when my scalp got bad, but T/Sal doesn't smell at all... like seriously zero scent... again unless you stick it up in your nostril. I know a lot of things say no scent and they still have one, but this one smells like nothing.

Maybe my skin just doesn't take to scented products very well, I must absorb them or something. Body wash never lasted long on me, even some colognes. I recently upped my game on that since i found the FragranceX website. They sell discount overstock like Tester bottles meant to be used by department stores. Amazon tends to have too many counterfeit colognes going out so I had to find a good discount retailer. I like Tommy Hilfiger Eau de Cologne, but it lasts just a little bit for me. Versace Eros and Polo Green work amazing for me and last all day. In the summer I sweat profusely at my job when it gets really hot so antiperspirant doesn't last all day sometimes.  Its like a last resort second line defense if that happens. I use Degree mostly because its strong. I don't have too much of an issue with stains even on my undershirts unless they're extremely old.

 

I've used TurboTax for years. I did mine the day i got my w2, and got my return last week.

You really gotta try that Popeye's Chicken Sandwich, its magical. The chicken paddy is massive. Its pretty simple though, It's just a big succulent chicken paddy with some zesty sauce and pickles. I love Arby's but its the furthest chain from me so I don't go too often. Their social media is on point though. Raising Cains. ah yes, that's very Similar to Foosackly's but Foo is better (better sauce selection, and bacon queso fries option). There is also another tender chain called PDQ which I really liked, but ours shut down for some reason. I'm surprised they even have a Cains up that far north. Foo is superior because its a local thing and the chicken is super fresh. but Cains is really good. So is Zaxby's but its at the bottom of both Cains and Foo.
Five Guys is so good, but I don't consider them fast food since they cook to order like Whataburger but their prices are pretty high around here. I mean Whataburger is too. You'll pay a good $9-11 for a combo at Whataburger, but its like $15+ at Five Guys for the equivalent. I get the double cheeseburger fully dressed... what can I say? Whataburger is a Texas chain, so everything is big. Their medium drink is the size of a route 44 at Sonic. In-N-Out is really good too, but there aren't any here. I got to go to one in Vegas and it was really tasty.
I fucking hate BK. Fuck them. Their customer service is absolute trash at every single one I've ever been to in several states. Their burgers are hot garbage. The bun is too dense, and they nuke the damn thing before they give it to you. If I only had a choice between McD's and BK. I'd pick McD's instantly for the rest of my life. BK's chicken fries are the only reason I, on very rare occasions, go there. McD's McRib is my weakness. I don't care how many chemicals are in it. Its delicious trash tier BBQ. . But I do crave some McNuggets every now and then. KFC is poor man's Popeyes IMO. The chicken is good, but all their sides are garbage in comparison. Nothing.. and I MEAN ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, beats Popeye's biscuits. Its like they make some Pillsbury Grands and toss them in a pool of salted liquid butter to marinade for a bit. You can feel your soul dehydrate with every bite but its soooooo good.
The biggest travesty in downsize is McD's Big N Tasty.. which I call the Small n Tasteless now. I remember when it came out in the early 90s. I was a young teen. But the paddy was so big it jutted out of each side of the bun. The Monster Burger from Hardee's is a close second. Back when they had super models half naked eating them on TV, they were so good. The monster burger was insanely huge... and then Ruby Tuesdays had the ultimate colossal burger which was even bigger.
Back to Booze like you said. Bookers is so good, but yes it BUUURNS. I prefer Blanton's because its unfiltered like Bookers but the taste is way smoother in a Gentleman's Jack type way..... But way to be a pansy on mouth wash. I use the maximum 7 action burning Listerine. If it doesn't feel like my gums are melting, I feel like its not working. I endure the pain for 40 seconds before spitting it out. The incineration of my gums, tongue, and cheek lining, convinces me that all germs have been eradicated.

Fast Food is definitely different. Unless you're on a tight budget, McD's and BK are utter garbage. Hardee's has gone down hill since their "reimaging". They did more than get rid of their hyper sexualized commercials, they downgraded all their food in the process. Their burgers are smaller and not as juicy, and their "made from scratch" buns are meh. Their breakfast is still top notch though. Thankfully here in the south we have the glory of Whataburger which bar none has the best burgers. Worth the little longer wait since they cook to order rather than letting their paddies sit in a hot tray for hours. Sonic is my 2nd tier because of all the crazy options they have like the current Totchos which are amazing. And Wendy's is solid with its arteries clogging Baconator. Both Sonic's Crispy Chicken Sandwich and Popeye's amazing spicy chicken sandwich beats Chick-Fil-A hands down. Being in the bible belt Chick-Fil-A is king tho. Which is also why I don't like it... its always waaaaaaaaay to f*in crowded. All the ones here remodeled to have double drive thru lanes and they're always packed with a line. They do have amazing customer service and the food is good, but too many damn people at any given time keep me away from there. Especially when there are better chicken sandwiches to be had. Oh and then there is Foosackly's that makes the best chicken tenders you'll ever eat, but its strictly a local chain that's slowly expanding into a regional one. Its funny to see them go from a single location near the college I graduated from back in 2007, to now having several locations throughout Alabama and one in FL.
There are way more good bourbon/whiskey than there are fast food selections. My solid go to's are Jim Beam Devil's Cut, Makers Mark, Wild Turkey, and Jack Single Barrel. Blanton's is my all time favorite, but its hard to find these days. Bookers is another, and they have limited releases now that are even more expensive than original Bookers. I like the stuff Clyde Mays, Jeffersons, and Elijah Criag makes. Angel Envy is also delicious. I don't care for Scotch too much anymore as to me it just tastes like weak bourbon, its still better than the likes of Canadian Mist and Old Grandad though.

lmao!  There is an insane amount of variety now. Its hard to tell if its because everyone and their uncle decided to become a micro brewer or if its just that we have more variety now because of how laws have changed. I remember reading something about many states having shipping laws for alcohols across state lines. I think the laws have changed over the years and now more companies can ship their products all over the US. That might explain some of the large increase of variety. It was in the news here years ago because there is so many wineries in the region, they couldn't ship wines over state lines so they had to hire couriers to go around buying wines at different vineyards to then take to other states to sell. Something like that. Now the wineries can direct ship to customers in limited amounts including other store owners that resell them.
I don't drink much anymore. Like I'll have a shot of fireball or rum occasionally (especially if I have a sore throat) but nothing like I used to because my liver has given me so much crap. Although it does appear to have been ibuprofen that was killing my liver. I had a couple shots not to long ago and I didn't feel any of the negative side effects I experienced before so I'm guessing my liver has finally recovered. I'll do a blood test to confirm at some point after I switch to a different doctor.
Before my liver gave me crap, man I loved the selection. I was never a beer guy. I'd drink one when grilling or after mowing the lawn to cool down, but after 2 or 3 I always felt bloated. Theres a store about 15 mins from my house that is a specialty beer store/gas station. They have over 100 beer varieties sold individually from all over the country and their inventory changes almost monthly with new and old beers entering and exiting within production schedules. They have a rule there that you can only buy 2 of any specific beer at a time so people can't buy out a specific variety. Its really interesting to see the selection available.
As for bourbon my go tos in no particular order were Makers mark (mixed with ginger ale was the best winter drink on a cold night), Angel's Envy, Knob Creek and Evan Williams. Whiskey was my favorite tho, especially Gentleman Jack. I'd drink the hell out of that. Crown Royal was also on my go to list. I liked experimenting by trying something new, but once I found something good I had a tendency of sticking with that instead of throwing more money out there that I didn't have to spend.
Whats really funny is the variety in alcohol available is no different that marijuana shops.  Hundreds of beers, hundreds of bourbons and whiskeys.. meanwhile in states with legal weed, hundreds of strain varieties and edibles. And its the same with nicotine vaping, hundreds of flavors. Why smoke a cigarette anymore when you can suck on flavored chemical mixture that tastes like bubblegum. Same with food. hundreds of fast food and restaurants all serving chicken, beef, pork and veggie meat in different varieties. This is America, the land of excess where too much is never enough.

I mean if you watched subs you could watch the wonderful Eizouken (probably my favorite of this season), Asteroids in Love (this show if fucking adorable), and Somali and the Forest Spirit (another adorable show and my second favorite of this season).
BOFURI is a lot of fun, didn't think I'd actually like it but after watching the first three episodes Tuesday night after work I fell in love with it. Such an interesting premise and by god is Maple a little monster.
Outside of those four and Isekai Quartet S2 (god I love this show and they brought Naofumi in from Shield Hero finally) I'd have to agree. This season is kind of a downer as I have no interest in any of the other shows. I'm pretty much just coasting through this year waiting for Promised Neverland S2, Slime S2, Log Horizon S3 (god damn am I so happy this got a 3rd season, can't fucking wait), the rest of Azur Lane, the continuation of The War for Underworld arc in SAO, Fruits Basket S2, No Guns Life S2, and Yuru Camp S2. Those are the shows I'm really waiting for.

Man that was a rough one. Many manly tears were shed for Nighteye 😭Fucking kick to the nuts is what it was and it didn't help that I knew it was coming, wasn't expecting that much emotion (especially from Mirio who has officially become my 2nd favorite MHA character, this weeks episode cemented it for me with how he's handling everything).

Im about to dump some money into AL for some skins That opening cinematic spoke to my soul.... plus that Belfast skin I've been wanting is an instapurchase. I'm glad this event came up though because I've been grinding for commander level 60 for the last few days as I'm stuck and cant progress in the main missions until I do. I did a 10 pull and got Dido, Gloucester, and Hasley Powell. I just need Biloxi, but I won't blow all my cubes like last time until the end if I still don't have her... AND Takao is in the medal exchange. Its like the game knows what I want.
I blame you. 😛 I pre-reged for Arknights after it launched and it still gave me the rewards. I do like the concept though. I also like how you can't just whale it up and roll into a mission with all 6 stars. That deployment cost will snowball you into failure every time. It seems like a lot to take in. I still don't grasp everything in the base, the daily combat is interesting. I kinda like that you have to 3 star stuff to auto it... which is also interesting as it seems to just copy your strategy and use it to win every time. It's def not as casual as AL, but AL is still my favorite.
If you care to add me for the clue room or whatever it's called, there is my ID.
edit: Off, if it doesn't zoom its 39846036

Already ahead of you  I literally pre-registered for it like 30 minutes before it launched.
My addiction to mobile games is strong. Not to far in it but I'm enjoying it but with the new Azur Lane event it'll be put on the back burner for awhile.

It's been a feature for a while 🤣
On a side note, was ripped from Trillian back when we all used instant messaging. Now trillian is a business messaging tool you have to pay for with different tiers of features. I was looking at it not too long ago just out of nostalgic interest.

A friend of mine asked me to look up some Rec Tec smokers and now all my Facebook ads are for Rec Tec grills. the only Facebook ads I had to block are political ones. Trump specifically. I hate the guy, I sure as hell don't want to see his face on my feed in between posts from the meat smoking fans and pomeranian fans posts.
My feed is like.. onion article, cute dog, smoked prime rib, space article, random friend posts, cat memes, kotaku article, etc. Most of my ads now are amazon and walmart products I've googled.
One of the funniest ads I saw was for traeger grills. It was a smoker and the guy cooking ribs was wearing a suit. The comments were amazing. "When I smoke meat I always wear my suit, that way I smell like charcoal at the office."

Woohoo!

My whole family was sick for the holidays. Acute bronchitis and Flu B. Been dodging germs like

Couldn't tell you as I got her from building and I never had this log in rewards thing when I started, must be something new for new players to the game (from what I just read it seems she is obtainable through log in rewards so you'll get her on day 8).
Not really surprised as Elizabeth is a powerhouse with the right weaponry and auxiliary gear. Quite honestly I really hope she gets a retrofit in the future as she's by far my favorite battleship to date (I only took her out of Fleet 1 because of Amagi's synergy with Sakura Empire ships which made it more of a powerhouse then it was).
Honestly I haven't used Belfast yet. I've had her for quite awhile but have never done anything more then level her to 71 and now she sits in dry dock (I did get her event skin during the last event though). Since my plan is to have a fleet of each major faction I'll probably put her into my Royal Navy one once I get around to fully putting it together.
Heh, I just got Montpelier two days ago. She was the last SR ship I needed from light construction (and with her I think I now have all SR ships available through non-event building). Honestly haven't looked into her yet but I'm pretty sure she'll end up on my Eagle Union fleet once I start putting it together. I just want the Bismarck event to come back because I really want her for my IB fleet and I barely missed out on her last time >.<

I downloaded Azur Lane just for shits and gigs. I normally don't do mobile games but I got a few things coming up that I'll need some entertainment where as the switch is too much of a distraction for it. Its neat so far. I did have Enterprise drop on the completion of the tutorial mission. I dunno if they just let you roll a super rare or what to suck you in, but whateves, awesome. I'll assume the only reason for the joystick is to avoid AOE and special projectile type attacks, and everyone's auto attack is unavoidable.

Ugggh, Too may best girls in one show. Dammit Lisa, turn good! It's clear she really cares for Vulcan even though it wasn't her intent. They did a reaaaally good job, and by good job I mean super cringe and uncomfortable with that Giovanni manipulating her scene. 
Its even worse for dub on holidays. Not everything was affected for Thanksgiving but they did delay Dr. Stone and Azur Lane. But at least its double episodes this week for everything that got pushed back. I'm missing my british ship waifus! 😭

I think that was a shining example of "discipline" and masterful tactics. He slowly assessed the situation with his ricochet control, and then went ham. Didn't even have to hit her directly. The writers are doing a really good job of establishing the villains to make certain characters shine. The white clad where giving everyone a run for their money when they were helping Benimaru, and at Vulcan's workshop. Arrow was definitely established as one of the strongest of the bunch. Hinawa brutalized her, and it was glorious. 
On a side note Suneater's fight on MHA was pretty bad ass too. Its finally starting to get intense.
