Sunday mornings start good

Interesting tabletop!

You were great!

Thank you!!

It’s so wonderful of you to share your learning experiences! You are unique!

I see I’m not the only one who plays “Prison Rules Uno”

You playing 0s and 7s to?

I’d never heard of that until now. Maggie googled it and it sounds delightfully sinister! 😈

it can go on forever just be aware.

I could see that happening!

Lee cheats.

Try Dos. We are Uno fanatics here but this may be even preferred.

Nice 😎

Yeah, but try doing that in public where the floor is a lot grimier and there are screaming children. That’s my life.

I make it a game to get it all out in one big ball. Those damn socks ruin everything!

What’s up with the branch with leaves on it in your car? 😉

I got it at the second Nightmare on Chicago Street I ever went to up in Elgin. It was laying on the ground in its own crumpled heap of plastic greenery as I was making yet another of my least hasty exits. When I got back to my truck I stuck it into my cigarette lighter outlet thing and it’s lived there ever since… 🌿

WAIT. That’s a lie. It’s not in the cigarette lighter outlet. It’s in the keyhole next to it that controls the airbags!

I didn’t want to run the risk that this garden-variety plastic ivy one would find at your neighborhood Joann’s art and craft store would catch fire.

In related news… One time I put my truck key in the keyhole, hoping it would open the door way to Narnia. But alas there was no such transportation reward. Only shed tears in the salty realization that I would indeed have to go to work. 😢

Thank you for your honesty. My first thought was maybe it was eucalyptus and you had a koala bear. That would be pretty rad. Please know, I do not judge a man’s greenery he keeps in his car.

This thread makes me smile. 😁 Or maybe it’s just my muscle relaxant kicking in. Either way thanks for the laugh guys

My two cents but the koala ain’t a stranger to muscle relaxants.

Look…if you’re gonna feed us interesting tidbits on conversations overheard. You’re gonna hafta stick around for the ending. You’re public depends on you!

MFer, don’t mess with my comfort food after a hard day on a Friday.

Pint can legit, strong work

Are you an author? You should write a book… your stores are so funny and so well written.

I regularly submit my stuff to publishers, etc. but so far nobody’s been interested. 🙄

I loved this!!
We do love our cheese puffs tho..

Literally clicked the comment section just to ask this question. Past few posts I read are the most simplest interactions that can and likely happen daily and you make it interesting to read.

Thank you!

I write more serious stuff, too.

Walgreens is always located at the corner of HAPPY and HEALTHY, not State and “whatever”

I don’t know. I go into the St. Charles’ Walgreens on the corner of Main Street and Sweet Tomatoes a couple times a week and there’s one cashier that’s borderline anti-happy.

Seriously, she asks for my Walgreens Rewards card each and every visit regardless of how many times I’ve said, “Listen shopping gestapo, you’re not tracking how many sodas I buy in the name of steep discounts and customer perks!”

Well, my wit’s not that quick in public or under Freddie’s pressure so that’s what I like to think I’ll say the next time I’m standing in her aisle as she’s questioning the cards in my wallet and reviewing a 3” ecig box with a scrupulous monocle, flipping the box over and over again looking for the 2” barcode.

It’s on the fracking back where 90% of the barcodes in the world are!!!

Ok. First, Henry is my homie. He is so nice.
Next, ecigs are bad news. When you know better, you do better. You have one set of lungs, take care of them.
Finally, I use my bucks on Cheetos 😂

ahrens, you are friggin killing me. 😂🤣

This is LITERALLY the best thing on the internet this weekend.

This is such a deep conversation, right? Love it.

Perhaps Walgreens is not your scene. For all of the times I have entered my rewards number, I have yet to be rewarded. CVS is where it’s at. Once you get over the fact that your receipt is as long as 3 football fields, you realize you win the lotto during every shopping experience. I earn all of these bucks for whatever reason and I just roll with it. Some people are addicted to crack and/or bath salts but CVS is my weakness.

There’s this dude named Henry that works at the CVS close to my house. He’s worked there ever since I moved to my neighborhood back in the 00s. He, too, asks for my CVS card every time I see him. Even if we’re not in CVS. One time I was out feeding homeless children on the upper west side on a sunny Saturday, not unlike today. Henry pulled up, in what I assume to be his blue BMW and Keanu shades, and said, “CVS card…” in his oh so cool Nigerian accent.

I might spring for a CVS card if they sold ecig paraphernalia by the pound but they seem to be anti-nicotine these days. And then they got those midget shopping carts that people still insist on filling up like their at Costco on Randall.

Regardless, the real question is what do you do with all your earned bucks? Do they automagically discount your next receipt when you go in?

That will be me and my husband in 30 years. He already tells me i can’t get more cheese its. I need a cane…

You could probably buy one at Walgreens. If not, Riley Drug (also on State Street and whatever) carries them. I’ve tried their canes out. Clean finish, solid construction, helpful staff.

She’s diabetic and shouldn’t have carbs. He cares about her.
