Be as boring as possible.

I was tripling a recipe that called for 3 tablespoons of milk. Rather than measure out *9* tablespoons of milk, I looked online for a conversion chart from tablespoons to cups (or fractions thereof). Nine tablespoons = 0.5625 cups.

The chart, however, was a little ... anal. It went up to 90 tablespoons by ones, then to 100, then to 200 by 25s, then 250, 300, 500, 750, and 1000 tablespoons. Who the hell is going to multiply a recipe that calls for tablespoons of something enough times to equal 1000 tablespoons (62.5 cups, or almost four gallons)?!?!?!

This is really boring. Thanks.
 
Today is recyclables day. I wish they would change it, so trash and recyclables were on the same day.
That would be too tempting for people to just throw the recyclables out with the trash. Wait a minute...two different days? That might be worse. Some people would just toss everything into the trash, so they don't have to mess with it two times a week.

Oh, sorry for not being boring enough, but we are talking about trash here. In some people's eyes, that is very boring.

Our trash and recycle days are the same, and I prefer it that way. The reason it works so good here, though, is because recycling is 'free' (we pay for it with taxes). We have, for a family of seven, the smallest trash can possible, and we can do ti because we recycle our asses off.
 
I had a cup of "Sleepy Time" tea about an hour ago. I think it is starting to work. ~yawns~
 
You're right. When I drink water, I want that full water "zest," you know?


I don't mind mine a bit watered-down and/or on the rocks. I prefer mine neat though... maybe you should try that. I find it pairs nicely with stale saltines or dry bread.
 
It's raining, very lightly, but chillily. (Is that a word? It should be.) The temp is in the mid-40s with a predicted high in the low 50s, but it's supposed to get into the mid-60s tomorrow and mid- to high 70s Saturday. I do believe winter is on its way.
 
Commando again?
"NON-BORING ALERT!" :eek: The suggestive image is far from boring (and possibly exciting with a breeze). That is not allowed in this thread!

I'll comply....and eat white bread for lunch!

So, you're a skinny assed family, then? Don't overdo it. There should be at least a small amount of padding to the ass...for it to do its job well.
