  We should have a virtual uncruise for all the people who intentionally are not going on an actual cruise in March. Kind of like Concellation.

I’ll eat 45% fewer slices of salami. I’ll just have to slice them 45% thicker. Maybe a little more.

- @werehatrack I get tired of people serving to me and then walking right into my shot. I give them a warning and they deny doing it claiming they give me plenty of room. So I tell them I’m going to take a shot straight to the front wall and if you are in the way, you will be hit.
  
  I used to enjoy hitting them but now I sort of feel sorry for them and take an alternate shot instead. It avoids arguments that way even though I know I’m in the right.

  Correct. Donald Trump’s claimed net worth would not be enough to get me to move back to Florida, despite the fact that I live in Texas now.

  Maybe if I happen to run across some 1440p monitors for under $20, I’ll upgrade.
