I think I'll buy a few pairs of those and save them for ~40 years and I'll be ready for them.

They are comfy and when the soles wear thin, duct tape fixes them right up ....

Well, I got one bike put together this evening ...... I'll do the other one tomorrow (I don't want to over do), after I drop off the two older granddaughters at their school.

Now, how do I keep up with them when they are riding their bikes .. ??

Option 1 - I have two 10 speeds down in the basement ...... somewhere ...... that are over 20 years old - most likely have rotted tires.

Option 2 - I have a 1970 model year dirt bike in the basement ..... somewhere ..... hasn't been run for over 25 years - I doubt it will start.

Option 3 - put a GPS tracker on each bike and sit on my front porch, watch then on my cell phone and sip iced tea - I'm liking that idea a lot.

Any more ideas ......??

People who don't clean up after making a mess in the microwave are fucking assholes.

At home, cool. At work? Go kick rocks.

And I'm supposed to be the lazy millennial according to stereotypes.

They are second only to those that microwave fish dishes. I worked with 1,200 Vietnamese and Cambodians. The microwaves were no longer fit for use with "normal" food.

Yep. And I bought it without whining about how much it cost.
