I'm on my 3rd day here in Egypt and after how many years this my first travel solo and it was indeed fulfilling... thanks to my local guide from https://gowithguide.com/egypt making my first solo travel worth while .. I will here until first week of december hoping for smooth travel.

Thats cool, book a room at that influncer air B&B and get a sweet tiktok of you playing p99 instead of enjoying the majesty of the pyramids.

Something good? Bots self destructing and linking the video of their deaths here.

Hay guys I just got back from my amazing trip to some shithole I booked with trip scammer, and when I got back I went out and got a new shitbox of a car I bought with car site scammer. I also recently got engaged to my girlfriend I met on Cam girl scam. I also work for the FBI and will need you all to verify your identity by sending me $1000 in Amazon gift cards

What a great day!

Not today but this past saturday I played a fantastic show with my band of eight years, whose primary songwriter and guitarist died two years ago and it was like a memorial thing for him so our sax player filled in and somebody else played sax. There was a great turnout so we got lots of free food and booze so I ordered a huge reuben like a fatass cause it was at this nice hotel with a good kitchen

Had to shell out $1300 but got my AC on the house fixed. It’s old but the AC guy is a friend who was saying that the older units like mine should be able to get like 18-20 years with proper maintenance. So I felt I made the right choice vs balling out $6k+ for a new unit

I’ve had multiple friends and family members have their brand new units breaking frequently and I said to the guy what’s with not just AC’s but older appliances in general just being so much more reliable than the newer stuff? Is this just my conspiracy brain but is the newest stuff being built to break or just has shit quality control or something?

He was already smiling like he agreed as I was asking it and said he can only speak for the AC units but the newer ones have many more sensors where if one of them gets tripped, everything shuts down

I just notice with microwaves, ovens, hot water heaters, etc, a lot of the older stuff is reliable as hell for years and years and the newer stuff seems to be kinda crap /shrug

Some pics from the Holiday light parade tonight. As the only available dude there, was fun flirting with a nurse and therapist separate gals as they each got more drunk. As long as I played it safe and didn’t commit to either and get too physical in front of the other, no resulting drama and neither finding an excuse to leave early or anything. Now can meet up with either again in the future

More light parade pics (had prettier ones than this but the files are too large and I can’t compress them enough so meh)

Hey nopenopenope do you have a soft cap on your AC?

Also a bad thing happened but for a good reason in my lil town. Christmas/streetparty postponed cuz we got 6 months worth of rain in a day. Luckily our council has spent money wisely on infrastructure so the flood waters barely wrecked anything important. Some people got minor garage flooding.
Zero power outages. Zero deaths/injuries.
Dam at 100%

Overall id swap a shitty street party for a dam full of water.

Also got out of mowing lawns.

Edit
Wow your light shows are awesome. Worth going out to see.
Re the gals: You dawg you.

Last year’s light parade we got DUMPED ON by some freezing cold rain. I wish they would have preemptively canceled it because that kinda sucked. Luckily no floods though damn! When you get rain you really get it

Yea for a free show it was a lot of fun. I just felt bad because people had gotten there hours early and put up chairs on the sidewalk, and my group who got there drunk and late (I was drinking rum and some juice from some girlie yeti container or whatever those are) was corrected multiple times to not stand up at the edge of the sidewalk because the people who were sitting behind us couldn’t see

Well eventually enough procrastinators like us showed up where there were dozens and dozens of people standing up blocking the people sitting down who got there early’s view

And at that point the girls especially in my group who were more drunk than me adopted a “monkey see monkey do” attitude to do the thing we were told not to do. But I continued to look behind me and step to one side or another, and turn sideways to try to avoid blocking the people behind me. Even if it meant not being able to yell conversation over the music at times, I went out of my way to make sure the only thing I could see behind me was concrete wall

Sometimes I feel like I’m the only person cognizant about other people around me [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
