How do the liquid soap folks get the anti perspirant underarm deodorant off? I’ve started bringing my own bar of Dial yellow when traveling for that specific purpose.

re: Has anyone treated flu with Oscillococcinum?
Posted by FCP on 12/25/25 at 10:35 pm to Sheepdog1833
Don't know anything about Oscillococcinum, but I do know that oseltamivir phosphate (Tamiflu) gave me a textbook case of the "confusion, or abnormal behavior" they list as a side effect.
Ended up regaining consciousness about 36 hours after the first dose. Found myself barricaded in the corner of my bedroom, hiding because "they" were coming to get me. Threw away the remaining doses and recovered over the next couple of days using saltines, ginger ale, and, finally, some chicken noodle soup.

Morning Army and others.
Sitting in an airport outside Rome, waiting for a flight to Amsterdam, thence onward to ATL, and finally BTR by mid morning Christmas. Twelve hour layover in ATL b/c Delta cancelled its late night Xmas Eve flight to BTR.
All good though. Got a couple of rooms at a hotel near the airport and plan to get a few hours sleep. And a Dr. Pepper. Because Italy does not have that sweet nectar of the gods.

re: Been dipping tobacco for 30 years.
Posted by FCP on 12/20/25 at 1:12 am to TechDawg2007
Same. Approximately 3 decades of dipping. Stopped slowly over a couple of weeks. Stopped for good when, after doing the Zyn swallow thing for a few weeks, I climbed up a pole with a dip in my lip. Instinctively swallowed a full mouth of tobacco juice. Turned green. Felt sick to my stomach. And haven’t had a dip in over a month.
Depends. Which one of them baws is willing to start a roux before grabbing ahold of a gator. That’s not exactly the kind of dude you want to mess with.

Nothing to add here. Just checking into the GMT from chilly northern Italy. Riding on a train from Venice to Florence. Already past sunset here—not that it could really be seen due to rain/fog. It’s 5:15PM already, and I’m hungry.

re: Baton Rouge - Miami gay connection (down low) **Now updated with video**
Posted by FCP on 12/16/25 at 8:31 am to OysterPoBoy
Known a couple of gay dudes who separately came to BR from Miami. Like lived there 20+ years and then moved here. Never figured out any “good” reason for them making that move.
Not a Christmas bonus per se, but basically a year end $200 plus a factor of how much the company stock price increases YOY. Total has been over $1K some years, and just a straight $200 in years that stock went down.
Spent a couple of years in management at the same company before going back to the technician side. They had a similar bonus structure, but it was 10x what the technicians get. Those were a couple of nice years, getting an extra 8 grand deposited in the bank.

Dunno. It’s usually slow this time of year for me, but Dec 2025 is mandatory 6 days, 54 hours all month long. Hell, they’ve even brought in technicians from out of state to help our workload. Doesn’t matter. They’ll get 8, maybe 9 more days out of me, then I’m off until 2026.
MIL insisted that it was 2 hours early for domestic, 4 for international. So, I spent the better part of Xmas Day 2005 sitting in MSY.
FTR, we could’ve arrived 15 minutes early and still made the flight. Apparently no one who is sane actually travels on Christmas Day. OTOH, the last time I flew into MSY on Thanksgiving, we had a packed flight from LAX, even on a flight that touched down after midnight.

Just another day at work over here. Fixing y’all’s internet so you can shitpost about the latest Coaching Changes news.

re: Most and least common birthdays
Posted by FCP on 11/25/25 at 7:50 pm to Disco Ball
Feb 29 makes sense since it’s only available once every 4 years. Although I know 2 folks with that date. Otherwise, it reads like a list of major holidays towards the end. Christmas, New Year’s, and 4th of July are the only major holidays with fixed dates. It’d be interesting to see if things like Labor Day and Thanksgiving have similar spikes.
Can’t imagine anyone post 2001 would voluntarily induce on 9/11, even though that’s apparently peak season.

First time working at all during this holiday week in a long time. Ended up burning a bunch of vacation earlier in the year and have 2 weeks off at Xmas for travel. So, just another week in the field, minus Thursday.

re: Was the first time you tried Raising Cane's the best day of your life?
Posted by FCP on 11/20/25 at 12:03 pm to Boondock Saint
Meh, I tried it at the original location back when I was in law school around the corner. Probably went there 5-6 times. Or 6-7 as the kids say. Anyway, it wasn’t memorable enough to register “first time.”
