Ah but what you did not see is herself trying to pick the best pack of 4 9v batteries off the rack. I find this behaviour astonishing, a woman will spend 3 minutes deciding which pack to take, not fresh fruit but packaged goods - weird and annoying.

Oh I assumed you had gone one day forward in your time machine but six days back sounds more impressive.

What does it mean that a used Amazon Lambda AWS long-sleeved t-shirt, size L, is on sale for 80 baht (about US$ 2.40) in a used-clothes shop in a smaller local market (not on the tourist maps) in Chiang Mai, Thailand:
1. they have found me, and this is a warning ?
2. an ex-employee of the company is in hiding here, to escape persecution, or prosecution, after being photographed at a Trump rally wearing a MAGA hat ?
3. the wife left him and his cold land of unsmiling obese people and spiceless food, and returned home, taking his favorite t-shirts as revenge ?
4. it is an omen of the future of Amazon whose interpretation will require me to return to the US, and live in rain-soaked sunless Seattle where my income would only allow for a tent on the street, or jail for vagrancy ?
Or ?

Luxury. We used to have to get out of the lake at three o'clock in the morning, clean the lake, eat a handful of hot gravel, go to work at the mill every day for tuppence a month, come home, and Dad would beat us around the head and neck with a broken bottle, if we were LUCKY!

Well we had it tough. We used to have to get up out of the shoebox at twelve o'clock at night, and LICK the road clean with our tongues. We had half a handful of freezing cold gravel, worked twenty-four hours a day at the mill for fourpence every six years, and when we got home, our Dad would slice us in two with a bread knife.

I'm afraid it is all of the above Bill, all of the above.

I have that one!
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

What you need is the Bosskey Stone power ...

That's useless when your 3d printed hat[^] gives you away. The Bachelor Stone is the only thing that helps.

Nah, I'd wear that just to answer the phone.
I'm tooling around Skyrim in an enchanted Ebony Helmet[^] to go with the Ebony Mail[^] I'm quite fond of.

Ever tried the expansions or the special edition? On the island of Solstheim I 'inherited' a Dunmer house at Raven Rock which is by now stuffed full up to under the roof with stuff. A lot has changed there ever since I helped to get Raven Rock built (in Morrowind/Bloodmoon). Anyway, being a very modest Elf, I can't run around like a barbarian, like everybody else. Early in the game the Thalmor always donate some armor, which I improve a little and that ought to be enough for every occasion.

No, I haven't got any of the DLC yet - I'm still on the main quest (heck, I haven't decided between the Stormcloaks and the Legion yet!) I am in charge of the thieves, assassins, and mages though.

I have a house too, but forgotten where it was, maybe it's the one at Raven Rock. So stay out of my house

Could it be that you were the previous owner I had to evict from that house and you now live in Sovngarde? Funny, but I don't remember seeing you when I was there. My visit was not long enough to shake hands with everyone there. Barely enough time for some smalltalk and then I had to kill Anduin and was sent home afterwards.

That sounds like a plausible explanation, wish I wasn't that senile and could remember where my house was, it was stuffed with goodies too

If you don't have expansions, then it's most probably the house in Whiterun. Just try the door. If it opens then it's your house.
