Getting new pads made, and the team I play for is called “Death Eaters.” So I wanna do a slytherin; green, silver black combo, with a Salazar Slytherin mask


Unfortunately I do not have an eye for visual art whatsoever. Is there a better option of these two? Do they both suck? Any recommendations?

For you young'uns, this is what 32 years of marriage (anniversary yesterday) is like. "I made a hair appointment for you in 2 weeks because it was bothering me."
So you’re telling me in 26 more years my wife will give me two weeks notice of a haircut being scheduled rather than “get a haircut tomorrow”?

I can’t wait.

Yea, as said above, definitely the 1st set. I also think Voltron pads would be the GOAT, so take that for what it's worth

The first set helps create the illusion of extra 5-hole space. Also, the second set just looks boring. Love the idea. Kind of want to design goalie equipment and masks for the HP houses and Game of Thrones families.



On another note, anyone happen to know any lawyers in the Southeastern PA area who practice Defamation/Slander/Liable? I'm heading back to the area to work at a school district again and the official "vote" to approve my hire was last night. During the Public Comment period one of the local riff raff who speaks at every meeting decided to bring me up during his rant. Dude made three completely false statements about me, including attributing a direct quote to me. I'm done with these people coming to publicly recorded meetings and saying whatever they want, especially since I'm a consultant and future potential partners can easily see his comments and think they are true.

I sent him a letter today detailing what he said, how it was factually false, the laws he broke, and an expectation that he retract his false statements about me the next time he speaks at a school board meeting, which if that doesn't happen or he continues to attribute false statements to me, legal action will follow. Based on my entire history with this man, I have little faith he will retract or keep my name out of his mouth moving forward, so I figured it would be a good idea to at least start to explore the legal option.
 
Gave birth to my fourth child last night. I'd been fighting with this bastard since Sunday morning at 2:00ish. Went into work the last three days with it. Still kinda sore now but nothing compared to the last week. I'm scheduled to leave for a week in Disney tomorrow and had been on the verge of canceling this trip I've been looking toward to for months when it finally came out. I am not the most pious man in the world but sometimes it's hard for me to believe there ISN'T someone up there looking out for me... especially considering that this past week is the week I had originally wanted to take my vacation.

Also... I now never want to see a bottle of water again, lmao. My life this past week has basically been drink and piss. I was legit drinking at least a bottle an hour.

It's dawned on me that Bob Clarke is a kidney stone. Thank you.

You need to start drinking lemon water.

I do not but I’d take down the description you put here.

I always get extra lemon with my water at restaurants, lol. I mean it when I say I drink almost nothing but water ever since my first stone four years ago.

My mom, aunt, and grandpa are all stoners so I was behind the genetic 8 ball from the start. In college I found that when I drank a whole bottle of water before my first class, I always had to go every 15 minutes so I pretty much much drinking what I should. Then I would always get soda when I ate on campus which is also a big no no. So I really screwed myself too. I've been on potassium citrate for a couple years to help stop the formation of new stones and I think it's been working- my CT scan for this one showed I still have the same amount of unpassed stones in both kidneys

I've been drinking lemonade and crystal light regularly for at least a couple years now
 
So lemon water works? I had been drinking it for a long time and recently changed to pomegranate which has tons of other benefits but might go back to it now. Never got a stone but I think my dad had problems

The best GoT goalie pads would be pictures of Tyrion Lannister saying "I drink Gatorade and I save things."

Citrate, a salt in citric acid, binds to calcium and helps block stone formation. "Studies have shown that drinking ½ cup of lemon juice concentrate diluted in water each day, or the juice of two lemons, can increase urine citrate and likely reduce kidney stone risk," says Dr. Eisner

Dr Eisner...pfft...Dr ChatGPT is the resident expert. But yeah looks like it helps unbenownst to me.

It's been a week since we got our new king size mattress in. I was able to pit Mattess Firm Online, a redditor who works for mattress firm, and a local mattress firm employee against each other to end up further reducing the sale price of the mattress by another $800 when the redditor decided to use his personal purchase code for me. I also got the upgraded head/foot adjustable base for free. A purchase that would normally cost $4200 and I got it for $2500.

The 100lb soaking wet meth tweaker delivery guy that single handedly lifted a 250lb adjustable base, then a king size 16 inch mattress on his back earned himself an extra $20 by taking it up the stairs and putting it in the room.

Mattress sucked for the first few days but its finally starting to break in a bit. Now im looking for a good pillow and featherbed choice. Anyone have suggestions on pillow or feather beds?

no gender reveal party beforehand?

I've tried a few different pillows, but just go with an old school feather pillow. The newer ones I've tried are too firm for me. I don't want to sleep with my head propped up. I like to sink down in. I have to fluff it once in awhile, but that's no biggie
