Since I've never been a drinker, how much is someone "supposed" to drink when they receive another flush letter?
Asking for a friend.

I rated it dumb because I've had this said to me way too many times.

What the **** do you mean I am too nice? Our arguments weren't serious enough? I didn't call you a ***** enough? What the hell does that mean?

I've come to the realization that they don't want to tell the truth so they had to come up with something.

It means you’re a pushover. You don’t stick up for yourself enough.

Not exactly sure.
Not to drop JLH gifs here, but I found this one that just coincidentally has JLH. It is a keeper with everything going on.

Son actually got a couple matches last night. 3-0 but had to wrestle someone. I nearly vomited before his first match with thoughts of his knee blowing out again. Didn't happen and now things seem a lot better.

The realignment threads accomplish nothing except people getting themselves all worked up about something of which they have zero control.
It's kind of like the academic and nutrition center. Several posters convinced themselves it was a north end zone project and then were mad when the sketches came out.

That reminds me - a bulk candy store just opened up in my town that supposedly features retro candy. Told Lew I want to go check it out, because you can't find Atkinson Peanut Butter Bars locally any more. They used to be a full size candy bar in Texas, and I would get some every time we went down there (or have my sister send them to me). Then for a while, Thiessens & Menards were carrying small bags of a bite-size version hanging on the racks by the registers, but they don't sell them any more. I realy really LOVE those things. Picture a Butterfinger without the chocolate, and slightly less crumbly. Mmmmmmmmmmm

For you old-timers, Atkinson also makes Chick-o-sticks.

For our redneck party, my wife found a pack of candy cigarettes at a local gift shop. They cost fiddy cents. They tasted terrible. I think they've been sitting there since candy cigarettes were popular in the 70's.

Also, anything peanut butter is almost always good so I'll have to be on the lookout for some of these Atkinson thingies.

I know they have candy cigs because we bought some there a couple of years ago.
And they just tasted like they did when I was 12, they didn't taste like they were from when I was 12. It is on 169 down around Jordan. They probably have the PB things too. I have had those before but I don't remember when or where.

It's a fun store with a ton of candies you never thought you would see again, a hundred different varieties of apples, a ton of puzzles and other things you would never put together with the title candy store. If you are driving by I would encourage you to stop and stretch your legs.

That's where you go to get the fresh candy cigs? We did go there a couple of years ago. It was really cool, almost to the point of being amazing. It's not a place for the claustrophobic though.

Also, I just learned that it's not spelled clausterphobic.

I'm glad I don't live with you @ImJustKCClone, and not because I think you're nasty or anything like that. It's just that, being diabetic, with you eating all that candy all the time I'd probably have to strangle you.
