2 adults a boy a girl and one male teenager. Everyone's competitive except for the girl. We all want to win except for the girl she likes the colors she'll pick red even though she has blue and yellow thus she needs Direction. So my wife takes that role and of course her Direction is on its face self-serving. My teenager is Uber competitive and it's giving my five-year-old self-serving directions that were using a blanket it as the world Uno Championship belt. So we using the blanket as a prize and the winner gets to wear it like a wrestling champion.
. Now I'm the only one that is not giving directions to anyone. And watching it all happen in front of me but when I have a chance to influence the game I'm doing it with my interests involved.
Now the teenager my wife and myself at the same time or complaining to the world Court of Uno that the other two are self-serving in their Direction and therefore this must be illegal. They at the very same time are doing the exact same thing they complaining other two of doing.
Even though I am not doing anything I am treated with massive suspicion when I give advice to either of the children. Knowing this I use reverse psychology. For example I've looked at their hand obviously cuz they show their cards to everyone ican't help but notice someone has yellow and red and you have and you have green and red. So I say choose yellow which immediately puts my teenager on alert and demands the child pick red which of course I predicted and everyone agrees with my teenager that I am doing this out of my self-interest and I am but I'm doing it in the opposite way of course they pick red and unable to play.
My boy is held to a higher standard than the girl mainly because she is not very interested in playing although she loves the excitement. For example you have to say uno when you have one card left and he almost won but we do not his picture because we don't remember him saying Uno which made him cry uncontrollably and had to sit out a game. My teenager lost that round and he freaked out and went up into his room and spazzed out.
Then he came back and beat us only after manipulating my boy to choose all the right colors for him.
When my teen won he jumped in the air super happy ran around like he won the lottery...i said to my wife...he's having more fun then riding the go karts Miniature good combined!
It was the loudest the midst fun and raucous time we've had!
Who would have thought?

thanks for asking. you know it's those little things in life that make us the happiest, so today i am very happy. i got my order of almonds, pecans, nigger toes, golden raisins, dried cranberries and cherries. trail mix. of course, got other vitriols like organic polenta, dried pinto beans, coconut water. i always feel rich when my pantry gets fuller.
btw, i got a bit down after reading that ZH article about that damn fourth turning yesterday. so i have decided i am going to be happy and peaceful until the shit hits the fan. i hope you are doing great. sure sounds like it.

Super jealous loopy. Here I am on vaca and I've eaten all my trail mix. Wait hold the presses my wife had moved it. The universe is in balance. WTF are Nigger toes...Sounds horrific.
It's funny you mention that about your pantry. I feel the same.

brazil nuts are called nigger toes. next time vitacost has a 20% off a food order, just bite the bullet and order the stuff to make your own trailmix. i go organic but you don't have to. you'd save even more.
and i really am gonna have to post pics of that baby hummingbird, funny thing. after i got the boxnest hung in a safe place, i go inside to get the little bowl of sugarwater to dose him up. i see that he has turned himself around with his cute little tail feathers hanging out. i get up real close to see if he's okay. the "door" is face-high. i see him shuddering a little bit and am worried he is trying to die on me. nope. he lifts those ass feathers and this orange/pink liquid poop flies out at mach speed and hits right on the side of my face. through research i discover that hummingbirds don't shit the nest. houseproud little things.
