Beside the bed chapstick and purse chapstick get finished. If it is in my car, it either melts or gets stolen by someone in the family.

re: How often do you actually sit down and read a book?

Posted by lsufan0229 on 1/21/26 at 9:45 am to CBandits82

4-5 times a week. I will usually read most of the weekend or at night to wind down. My goal is 100 books a year.

re: What is the best office prank you either did or saw?

Posted by lsufan0229 on 12/4/25 at 8:45 am to Purplehaze

My husband hid my son's fart machine in the area where their admin checked in clients coming in for meetings. When the client was checking in, he would hit the remote and it would make loud fart sounds. His admin was mortified.

One time he took a screenshot of someone's desktop, made that the background, and hid all of the icons. His coworker was trying to prepare for a presentation that morning, but every time he tried to click on an icon nothing worked.

I have pretty much stopped drinking during the week. I drink a seltzer before bed. It relaxes me, and I sleep like a baby. I wake up feeling great.

re: Why does LSU admissions take Louisiana kids for granted?

Posted by lsufan0229 on 7/16/25 at 2:52 pm to L5ut1g3r

What baffles me is the government’s push to keep kids in Louisiana after college in the local workforce, but they reject Louisiana residents with good grades from LSU. More than likely, if they leave the state they won’t come back here to work.

Unnerving. My parents told me I couldn’t walk the lakes or to and from class without someone with me. Getting home from my restaurant shift late at night and parking on campus was scary. I used to walk with mace at all times.

Yes it runs and AC works. The oil lights may be a sensor issue.

One of our kids has a 2010 car we are trying to sell. It has a huge dent on one side, cosmetic damage, and the engine and oil lights are always on. Where is the best place to bring it in BR to get some cash for it? We understand it will be scrap pricing, but we are hoping for a couple of thousand.

Does anyone know why they closed so abruptly? Some kids did the class, and they shut down before they got their driving in. Others put down deposits for this summer, and there is no word of how they are getting this money back.

Starbucks baristas on strike to protest new dress code

Posted by lsufan0229 on 5/15/25 at 9:45 am

Over 1,000 Starbucks employs on strike because the company is enforcing a dress code for employees. The new dress code is jeans or khakis and a black tshirt. Can someone please tell this generation that most jobs have some sort of dress code, and at some point they will have to follow rules to stay employed?

Starts projects around the house and won't finish the last little bit.
Leaves stuff scattered all over the house and tells me it is not a big deal.
Will snore loudly but will fuss at me when I grab the remote to tell me "he wasn't sleeping."
