Your mention of Klingon reminds me of something I once did that I must now confess.

One time at Thanksgiving dinner we were telling funny jokes. I thought it would be funny to share a joke I had just heard from a friend without thinking that it might not be appropriate for that setting. My Mom gave me heck for it. It's bothered me for all of these years so I am now confessing. I feel better now.

Oh, you want to here the joke?

What do Star Trek and Charmin have in common? They both go to Uranus to wipe out the Klingons.

I originally rented an E-class, but a 420i GC was their substitute. It's pretty much a F30 as far as I can tell, with better navigation experience because they replaced the analog gauges with a screen

trying to keep my cool, avoid confrontation with certain relatives.
i noticed increase in spam calls, unwanted emails.
i googled my name, my number is linked to my brother, my sister and my parents. I have received random calls from telemarketers, vendors... asking for them.
Also noticed email addresses using my name that is link to my sis, and bro.

there has been no contact since 2018

Little League Baseball World Series is currently happening. I confess I like watching it more than Major League Baseball.

I was manager for my son's team for a few years. Those kids are so emotional and they try so hard. Their hearts are really into it.

Was some of the best times I had with my son. That was more than 20 years ago. I remember like it was yesterday. Watching it on TV really brings back the memories.

I got a raise at work, but not RSU's this time. A raise was nice.

But I'm still a bit dejected over the job search. Got through 3 rounds with Amazon, interviewed with 2 other companies, and have my resume ignored or told I wouldn't be considered by about 6-7 other companies.

I'm wondering it my resume doesn't look good, or if some companies are worried that 15 years of experience with the last 6 at Oracle means they think aren't going to be willing to pay enough.

The holidays aren't even here and my anxiety is on full go. I love when it turns fall but dealing with certain family members makes me want to vomit.

Except for right in my nose holes, I shave with my wife's razor.

It's nice to know you still use her razor to shave your butthole. #savageoldman

It's SO hit and miss man. Buzz words, getting through the bots, inexperienced HR cock blocking the people you really need to see etc.

At the absolute worst time you can imagine. You're probably better off getting it out of the way.

Although it's a pain in the ass, and normally inconvenient having to sit around and waste time waiting to see if you're selected. I actually enjoy sitting on a jury. I have been known to change the opinions of 11 people

I remember jury duty decades ago where you'd have to go every day, for a couple of weeks I think. Then if you didn't get picked you were done. That's when it was a real PITA. Much simpler now, though I haven't had to go in a while.
