I'm 39 and an engineer, pants...I have no idea what things are things, but I do recall hearing about it, so I thought it was a thing. A dumb thing by my estimation, but a thing.

I will say it's somewhat big here, because of the high Japanese population, but so are Crocs for the same reason, so that's not saying much.
 
Took the girls to Culver's for last lunch before school tomorrow. Also had a BOGO free double cheese burger, 4 free kids' custard tickets, and 30 Scoopie tickets which gets you three free toys (aka pieces of junk). I think the average age in here right now minus our crew is 80.
 
Just mowed the lawn for the first time in about 2 months.

After going on a 2.5 mile dog walk last night and using a push mower today, I've realized how out of shape I've let myself get again. Going to go on more dog walks and start going to the gym on campus 2-3 times per week. You know, so I can stare at.... nevermind. Going too OSU frat boy on y'all.
 
Also, bringing up an old topic...littlest00 got stung by a bee last night at little00's soccer practice. Guess he really wailed for a few minutes, then was okay when mom said he could have a bandaid when he got home.

One of my neighbors needed a couple of new suits so he went to a clothing store that had a "buy one, get one" sale going on. The store was out of his size so the salesperson took his order and gave him a business card with a note on the back that read "Grant BOGO." When he went back to the store to pick up the suits he had ordered he asked to speak to Grant Bogo.

Needless to say we heard this story from his wife, not him.

Z happened upon a preschool cartoon and now asks for it. I don't know if littlest00 would like it, but it isn't girly themed as much as the lead person is a girl's family and her brother. Peppa Pig.

Speaking of strange toddler mood swings, ours has recently started saying she wants x eats a tiny bit then wants to eat y and repeat with z.
 
Is bubble tea still a big thing?

I've never had bubble tea, I do like the iced chai at starbucks, but rarely get it. If I'm going to spend $5 on a drink, there should be at least a little alcohol in it.

Was it ever a thing?
There was recently a story on CNN about how Bubble Tea shops outnumber Starbucks three-to-one in Iowa City. Is it a "thing" if it's a"thing" in Iowa City?

We have watched that, not sure if it's on netflix/hulu. They've got a rotation they switch up.
 
I work with Sasha Kaun's roommate from KU. Sasha is in the states signing with the Cavs and showed up to our office over lunch. He's frickin tall.
