What I Learned This Week - 9/19/25

1.  Kids today find out about school snow closures via e-mail/text, they will never understand the anxiety of getting up at 5am to watch the bottom of the TV like the NYSE. #Victory
2. My friend refers to his spouse as his candle because she is hot, brings light to his world, and if ignored will burn his house down. #maybe
3. My wife believes, no matter how true, I'm not allowed to refer to a wake as a “going away party”. #LessMorbid
4. I may be the last generation that can remember the distinct sound the glass doors made on the stereo cabinet. #TheSoundOfGoodThingsAboutToHappen
5. For future texting reference, referring to something that is over-the-top elegant, the word is spelled, “B-O-U-J-E-E”. #VoiceToTextNightmare
6. Three-beer-Lee finds a teeny-tiny TV mounted to the side of an RV displaying the Denver Bronco game, far more entertaining that he should. #StupidLatePenalty
7. Operation manuals that come with new technology rarely demonstrate to the reader how to actually operate the thing you just purchased, but a different version of the thing you just purchased. #SoManyFeatures
8. Having space granting one the ability to turn around 360 degrees in a shower is actually a luxury you didn’t realize you had until you are in a position you don’t have it. #NotGoodAtYoga
9. It’s amazing that I live in a time when someone asks me if I’m ready for the fall, I have to think hard for a moment to determine if they meant “autumn” or “the fall of society”. #maybe
10. I think “the best thing since sliced bread” needs an upgrade to modern times, from now on I'm using “the best thing since skip intro”. #GameChanger
11. My wife has decided we need to role play more and her favorite scenario is “sexy librarian” where she gets to read and tells me to shut up. #NotEvenTrue
