I love her, but maaaaan, I’ve been trying to slog through Ship Of Destiny for MONTHS and like, I just wanna be DONE with the ships and these characters and get back to Fitz and that side of the world. I know, I know, it all ties together, but I don’t care, I’m so done with the pirate stuff.

Bizzy Bone from Bone-Thugs-n-Harmony. Dude was a serious alcoholic. Saw his show back in like 2012 or 13, I forget the exact date, and he was completely shitfaced. He carried a handle of vodka and a bucket up onto the stage with him and alternated between drinking straight out of the bottle and then coughing/spitting/possibly puking into the bucket between songs. People in the crowd were like wtf man. It was disgusting. He had a fucked up childhood, so I’m not surprised he hit the bottle hard, but damn.

On the topic of China’s secret police, what are your thoughts on the Chinese government attempting to repatriate Chinese Americans and Europeans through covert operations, such as Operation Fox Hunt? I remember hearing about operations like this a few years ago, and it always seemed really freaky to me.

$24 of gas for my car

I just think the Grasshopper Mouse is neat

Whoa. Did they reconcile before he passed, though?

Oh, I still believe it, no worries. Sorry for your loss, no matter how long ago it was.

That’s wild! I never heard of that law. I do remember in boot camp back in the '90s, they told us that people could get kicked out if they snored too much because it could potentially give away your position to the enemy. That being said, I knew plenty of soldiers who snored, and none of them ever got kicked out for it.

Sabaton is on my go-to playlist whenever I play Valheim.

Creed

A matter of seconds, but I attribute this to my time in the military. It is VERY hard for me to fall back to sleep once I’ve woken up because my brain is like “It’s GO TIME!” instantaneously. I could wake up, walk straight out to my car, and drive it safely if I had to.

Arnold Schwarzenegger compares going to the gym with sex: “It’s like I’m coming day and night!”

Did your spouse at any point ask you what you wanted for your birthday, or did you at any point tell them (of your own volition) what you wanted for your birthday?

If you ever figure it out, you have to update us!

We Don’t Need Another Hero by Tina Turner? I dunno, I’m out of ideas. Good luck though! You’ve got me curious to figure it out.

In all the relationships I’ve ever had, I’ve never had pet names for my partner, and they never had any for me, which I guess is kinda weird? Like, are there “pet name people” and “non-pet name people”, and do they only attract the same type?
