I am trying OOOzempic and still hungry as fuck. So much for appetite suppressant.

I sold my boat that had twin I/O engines because it was a pain in the ass to service. I went out and got a center console with a single outboard instead.

Took advantage of a promotion from AT&T and got 2 new phones for free with trading in our 3 year old phones. The old phones were perfectly fine but thought why the heck not?

Activating the phones was a pain and shouldn't be that difficult being that it's 2023....

Which is why I still have my SE and especially why wife has her 11.

The cereal from my childhood sucks today. Every now and then, I get a craving for some really junky cereal from way back when, but today they've cut down on the sugar and artificial flavoring so it's almost tasteless.

Again, I don't eat that kind of crap all the time, but when I do, I want it to be as good as it was when I was 8 years old.

I created an entire thread about craving Funyuns and then being disastrously disappointed when they didn't taste like what I remember when I was younger.

Really? That has not been my experience. They have tasted the same to me throughout the years. Wish I had a bag right now as I could house the whole thing.

That was a, "it's me not you" moment. I think my taste buds just evolved. I didn't remember them being so insanely salty.

Maybe they’ve added salt over the years to make it more ‘tastier.’

Speaking of...

I just got a box of 7 of these bags delivered. Imported from Ireland.

Not all for me, of course. Will give them to friends and family with one bag for me.

These were good. Nice, deep onion flavor, cheese flavor was milder but still good, and of course salty like a chip should be. Texture is American kettle chip style.

Its been dry for a little while now, but it rained and now the car is a bit dirty, and im kind of annoyed that i need to wash the car so soon after the latest wash.

The saga continues......traded in our phones for this promotion and At&T received them on March 15th. Still waiting for the trade in to be applied to my account.

Tried to get the wife a free Pixel 7 Pro on ATT last month, but she balked that to get it she had to switch into a new plan which was $20 more a month and required a 3yr contract. Said, she always claims she won't leave ATT ever so what's the problem, get into their new scam now so at least you can get deals in the future.

It gets annoying having a tandem garage and having to move the BMW to get the Porsche.
