Gen Z Pussies

So there I was, yesterday, minding my own business. Mindlessly eating a baked potato while somewhat listening to the local news. Shark attacks on the rise, just like every other summer in recorded history. It’s gonna be hot. Just like every summer. Gen Z is taking their mommies and daddies on job interviews with them.

Hold. The. Entire. Fuck. Up. Naturally this was a national story. I actually dropped my fork of buttery, flakey potato goodness when I head it. Of COURSE they are. The generation that won’t make eye contact IF they talk to you HAS to have their collective hands held for a fucking job interview. Because it’s so terrifying. Pussies.

These are the same fucks who demand a litter box to shit in being placed in fucking schools. What the fuck? You can shit in saw dust but can’t look a potential employer in the eye without your mommy holding your hand?

It’s no wonder the greatest generation is dying off. They don’t want to hang around to see this shit. Hell, I don’t either. Not that I have designs of ending my life early. I just retired and have plenty of stuff I want to do. But I don’t wanna see this kind of shit in my wake. My grandson is gonna have a difficult time. More so if I can’t tell him how things are supposed to be. I don’t know what I’m gonna do if he wants to shit in a shoe box.

I’m getting another headache. Time for some Dewar’s Headache Remedy.

That is all.

My Electrocution

So, as part of my continued battle with migraine headaches, the VA has given me a new device to use to shock myself with. Now I know some of you are probably thinking “It’s about time”, but it’s not a corrective shock. It’s a vagus nerve stimulator. As seen here:

This thing zaps me in the neck for two minutes and makes my upper lip curl up in a very “Elvisesque” fashion. It’s not COMPLETELY unpleasant. Certainly doesn’t suck as much as a migraine, but it does feel very weird. One treatment is two, two minute sessions. So far I am up to a number 34 on the “zappy scale”. I’m not sure how high it goes.

I have learned that if I feel a headache coming on, if I zap the snot out of myself, between 20 and 30 minutes later the headache has pretty much gone away. Except for last night. Last night sucked. I zapped myself for 3 treatments and still had a migraine. It didn’t get to the point that I was all pukey, but it didn’t go away either. So, not sure if that means the device worked, since the migraine didn’t get worse. It didn’t get better either. Just stayed the same. I was able to sleep last night though. I wouldn’t call it a good night’s sleep, but I slept.

Welp, I guess I’ve just about said all I wanted to say on this entry. Guess I’m gonna head out and give myself some more electroshock therapy. Ya’ll stay safe out there….

Remote Controlled Truck

I took these this past week, when I was on a “mini vacation” with my wife. The neighbors were “testing” their daughter’s new remote controlled truck and just happened to be out with my camera. This thing was unbelievably fast. 0-60mph in 2.5 seconds. And that’s not scaled 60mph, it truly hits 60mph! It was good practice for me to try tracking such a fast moving object.
