I took the day off. I work as a coffee roaster, so I’ve been doing a lot more lifting lately for two reasons: It’s been very busy due to black Friday/holiday season and the fact that we’ve been waiting for a container of coffee to come in. That container will have supersacks, which are huge 1500-pound bags that we load into a hopper instead of the single palletized 132# bags that I have to break open one-by-one. I’m glad my boss is super-chill and that I have my roasting protege to fill in for me so calling in is no problem. I go to the chiropractor and massage therapist every couple of weeks but all the help is instantly undone once I come back to work.

Did a 7 mile cow move, and the horse I was riding has an extraordinarily terrible canter. My back has been screaming for 2 days. I feel your pain, brother.

Dull Men's Club

Create post

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men’s Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases, like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

8. All polls must have an “Africa, by Toto” option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.
