@bossito sim eu sei, mas sempre o fiz de borla, e há muito relato de máquinas a rejeitar embalagens, etc. aliás o Lidl onde costumo ir nem máquina tem. Tenho de ir de propósito a outro sítio para reaver o dinheiro (e sinceramente tudo que envolva Sonae e companhia não me inspira confiança). Nope, vou evitar o maximo que puder. E sim continuo a fazer reciclagem como já faço há 20 anos ou mais nem sei 😅 #oldfart 🤣

So I'm at a major retailer today. Begins with 'W'. My cashier is late teens / early twenties. My purchase totaled $8.86. Throwing off cashier to begin with, I pull out cash. Not a debit card. Initially, I offer a twenty - which the cashier rings through. But them I find I had $9.00 and offer that instead. So instead of the register telling him out how much change to give back, he's forced to do the math.
*He pulls out his phone and opens the calculator to figure it out.*Now here in Canada, we've gotten rid of the penny, so we need to round up / down - but even I, rotten in math since I was a kid - told him he owed me 15¢. He checked his calculator, looked at me like I had just spouted magic, and gave me the change.
Wow. Just wow.

Yes, yes, it was VERY clever, oh SO clever, to make part of your drum baseline sound like a blown speaker on one channel. I'm sure that anyone who listened to more than five bars of that shit is deeply impressed. #OldFart

In most aspects, I'm a cheap old bastard.

When did people stop caring if everyone could hear their conversation with all the details of their personal lives?

Throwing a party for the one-year anniversary of the State College "FRONT RUNNERS" group was great fun as a young man. Now, as a senior, I can happily live without parties. 1995. #hermit #hermits #hermitting #oldfart #oldcoot #oldgeezer #senior #seniors #curmudgeon #curmudgeons #grump #grumps #grumpy #grumpier #anniversary #running #aerobic #aerobicexercise #runner #runners #jog #jogging #joggers #gladiola #gladiolas #party #parties #entertainment #entertaining #guest #guests

Middle-aged power unlocked! 📢
I can now tell the difference between a new wiry silver nose hair and the rest of my dark brown ones by its feel in my schnozz alone! 👃
🥸Anyone have any other pokey silver nose hair advantages?

Probably just as well I quit trying to push through the tireds and the stupids to try to write; my knee's started doing some nasty, painful twinges for no reason at all that make it _even harder_ to concentrate. (Joy, just what I needed. Aging fucking sucks.)
Maybe it's a night to watch _Harvey_ and _Arsenic and Old Lace_, and maybe live-toot them.
Which order, though? 🤔

Me: (just sitting in my comfy chair, playing a game on my phone, totally normal)
My Left Shin: ⚡PAIN!⚡ RAGING PAIN!!!
Me: Ow, Jesus fuck, what the fucking fuck?!
My Left Shin: ⚡PAIN!!!⚡
(about 10 seconds pass)
Me: What the fuck, why is this happening?
My Left Shin: Oh, never mind. Everything's fine now. Have a nice evening. I'll just go back to being normal.
Me: What even happened here?

Looks like I missed when Highway To Heaven was trending on here. I'm only about 40 years late though 😂😂
I bet most people on here are too young to remember it anyway.

You are preaching to the choir - it's actually kinda difficult to get a well-designed case *without* a window - but it makes us old farts fossils in the gamer kids' eyes.
Same with internal components encrusted with programmable LEDs...

TTW you start writing, realize you'd kind of like a Martini, get up to start making it, get the vermouth out of the fridge, start idly clearing space on the counter to mix in while ruminating about writing stuff, finish clearing the counter, go back to writing...
...and then 15 minutes later you realize the vermouth is still sitting there on the counter and you still don't have a drink. 🤦🏻
Now I have to get up again.
(That's a PITA when you're over 50. #OldFart)
