Minor things that please you

Sometimes people do that sort of thing (notably married men who don't want to do laundry).

Is that a real thing married men do, or is it just something they joke about?

I'm quite happy to do both the laundry and the vacuuming because my wife cleans the bathrooms.

I usually get out of cleaning the house because I clean dishes by hand, tend the yard and pick up after the dogs.

I have seen it described by enough women that I absolutely believe it happens.

Sometimes the men will go so far as to pour bleach in a load of colors just to sell the fact that they don't know what they're doing and get taken off of laundry duty.

My phone autocorrects Bullhead City to Bullshit City.

Which, having spent an hour or so there today, seems appropriate.

Our hockey ticket partners refer to the lady who sits in front of us at Verizon Center as "Buttcrack" because invariably at some point during the game when she stands up she exposes hers.

My iPhone has seen that "name" so often that if I type "But" the autocorrect option right in the middle is "Buttcrack."

Used to call it "Methhead City" myself.  I hated having to go up there for work since the store I was overseeing LP for was a problem child.

Today the first time I changed my engine filter and cabin air filter in my 2024 Corolla.  The operation took less than ten minutes since Japanese automakers make replacement work incredibly easy.

Wow.  Weaponized incompetence is not a good look.

Those men must have way more disposable income than I do, because there's no way I'd be willing to buy all those replacement clothing items.

autocorrects

With my phone, I'm back to typing text messages in T9, and those are some of the best.  For example, when referring to a friend from church named Jordan, it thinks I really mean "Korean" instead.  So I just refer to her as "Korean" in real life now.

Bullhead City is my "Poor Man's Beach Vacation" spot, along with Lake Havasu City not far away which is something of a kindred spirit.  I suppose "cheap for a reason" applies.  There are some beaches along the Colorado that are quite pleasant on weekdays; don't think I've ever tried them on a weekend, and I wouldn't go to Lake Havasu City during Spring Break.  Obviously you don't want anything to do with the weather there mid-April through early October; other times of the year the weather can be beautiful.

The rhythmic, hearty "click-clack" of a glass bottom railroad crossing flasher relay.

I was on the Worcester commuter rail line and I was passing cars on the pike in Newton even though there was little traffic.

Being on a train next to traffic can be a rubber-band experience of yay-awww-yay-awww-yay!
