To add to the fun, AOL was also an internet company in the UK back in the 90s/early 00s. Used to get the free cd spam in the mail.

If it's consolation the one I went to was about that much, but happened 3-4 years after their registry wedding and with them in their early 40s (sadly missing a parent though). Tying the knot and a great ceilidh!

There's still the possibility, just sad and annoying that it's a long way off for now.

I went to a lovely Scottish wedding a month ago and it brought on a similar sadness after. The affording it, and by the time I could (comfortably) afford it my family will have aged away.

Growing older and grieving the opportunity windows closing, because you didn't strike big in your 20s, sucks.

I did not! It's adorable! Is there a name for the behaviour? My main experience of horses is when I did a catsit and had a horse to look after, he was sweet with me but apparently hated other horses so I've not really seen horses interact outside of riding.

The original wife guy.

Some folk swear by paint sticks (big long stick handle where you rubberband a bunch of models in place).

I am lazy and go for "ontop a cardboard box, then pick up for the final pass and tricky-to-reach areas". There are those who wear gloves to do the latter and not be goth'd but again, am lazy.

It clearly heard of the last time you took an innocuous shot of an animal and put it on the internet.

It's times like these you can in turn appreciate your own parents forgoing giving you the name Richard instead of Brent.

Holding on desperately for a "Bugsy Malone" strap.

This is just like those times drunk you leaves a glass of water and snack for sober you to wake up with. Thank your altered-consciousness self for thinking of your future needs.

I wish I knew when to take a rest like this after 10 days at the (rat) race, but when my energy is low and mood awful I keep pressing Train Wit and getting terrible results.

Drawn out flare up from the heat? My Crohn's still hasn't properly settled down again yet to not be waking up at mad hours.

Honestly I think very little of yours ever underperformed, and the fact you've had this job for two decades is tantamount to that.

Seeing you go from plugging away in PCZ with Gibbage to still making fun things full time is pretty cool (and a smart way to break in vs those costly expos mentioned).

Thanks for the inspiration, might go get the pre-emptive strike in and tell my niece this about my brother.

Saw a video about the real life Goldship and that had me intrigued. I'd heard of the anime but didn't know it was based on real horses. I'd written it off as a pervy show!

So to checking it out and finding several of the characters irl died from race related injuries I was not prepared emotionally.

Aloof, slender, seemingly smart but actually dumb, liable to skitter away then show excessive attention but only on their terms? Cat.

Positive, loyal, dashing headfirst into danger, slightly oblivious and dumb? Dog.

Wild, needs breaking in, will kick instinctively, dumb with a sweet tooth? Horse.
