I must seem so uncultured

(partly true)

Friday I was wfh and on a meeting with our CEO and CFO, sitting there on cam with a Grateful Dead hoody and a Yeti trucker cap on

we were making fun of the CFO's PPT skills (he's so fkn bad)

I said something like 'he's not exactly a disciple of the Hudson River School' and everyone did a Leonardo DiCaprio 'what the fuck are you talking about' dot gif

so I quickly explained it was a painting style like Thomas Moran and Frederick Edwin Church but my attempt at humor had bombed

CEO said he didn't realize I was a man of culture (I mean, who would guess, apparently) and CFO said 'oh, he's not like the rest of us'

I said sorry I was just an anthro major faking all this finance stuff and now they think I'm weird

Dude, that is next-level impressive not weird!! Look at you using both sides of your brain. I would totally do your decks and sneak in a lightning skull.

I got my wife the $500 Dyson hairdryer I think for Christmas 2021. We moved recently and I just noticed her old hairdryer by her sink. Then last night I saw her using her old shitty one. I asked “do you not use the hairdryer I got you?” And she said “oh, it broke.”

When???
“Like 3 months after I got it.”
Why didn’t you say something? Where is it?
“I got rid of it. I didn’t think something like a hairdryer would have any kind of warranty.”
…I’m pretty sure a $500 goddamn hairdryer would include some kind of fucking warranty.

I’m pretty salty

lmao women are so dumb

Really? So they don't last long? Sad to hear.

My wife has one that is at least 5 years old and still uses it almost daily with zero issues. It might be older. She got it right after they came out.

Same, wife has had one for awhile. She loves it. Still works and it's not nearly as loud as her last one.

Keepin it simple. When I've done Australian Wagyu that is thicker cut, I'll usually sous-vide at 130 for ~45 minutes then pat dry, season, quick sear in cast iron. The above is a true A5 and sliced thinner, so I'm thinking of using some of the fat to coat the cast iron, over medium, wait for smoke, then 30 seconds a side max.

In for results 🤤

Love that spec

I liked my 2020 a lot but found it boring because of the automatic really. It's a really competent chassis and bmw makes one hell of an engine so it should be tons of fun

The one I got for my lady has been used in a salon for months, multiple times a day. I'd say they're pretty hardy.
