Moved to a smaller town this summer for a new job, and when I went to the town's only gas station, I immediately started looking for the place to insert my debit card prior to fueling. I must have stood there just long enough, searching without success, because the attendant came to the door of the building and told me, "You just take the pump off the hook and put it into the tank."

Totally crazy to me that they still ONLY have pay-inside fuel, and that you can pay after fueling, as well.

Dh just spent like 30 seconds doing the closed eye laugh. I asked Google something on the voice thing and then I said "thank you google" dh found that funny. I was just being polite!

Tell him about the article you read on gizmodo about how google put in an algorithm to see if you're nice, or a jackarse, and tailors your results accordingly.

Totally made up, but perhaps enough legit details to make it believable.

Sounds like free gas?
 
Mrs00 has been working on our Christmas photo card. Using a template on Costco.com. Asked my opinion...it's all "Peace, Love, Joy" and "Wishing you a Peaceful holiday season and a happy new year"...I'm like "can we just say Merry Christmas?" We're not sending a peaceful holiday card, it's a Christmas card.

Sounds peaceful. Never know..it may put many at ease to see your faces on a card. Toss up!

My dad liked peaceful Christmas. He teared up once in church on Christmas Eve and told me he had been thinking about Christmas in the Battle of the Bulge so many decades before and how he thought he would never live through it let alone have a family to sit in church with someday. BTW, old man Boxster was not very religious.

Along the same line, he also hated the song White Christmas because they played it on Army radio that winter and it made everyone homesick as hell.

I can support that, it just seemed like they were trying hard to be as nice as could be without mentioning Christmas specifically.
