Café Gioia Espresso Review

Image
Grounds smell earthy. Smell is mild smelling and not overly complex. Just like regular discount coffee. Taste is dark, slightly bitter and a hint of dark chocolate and a very slight hint of hazelnut. Slightly burnt after taste and I was careful not to over brew it, so it is not on my end. Rating: 5/10 – but it is rather inexpensive.

Ilitium Disorder

The inability to understand satire has been linked to a mental disorder known as ilitium. This is where the person reading, hearing or viewing satirical content takes it as the truth. It is compounded by the fact that people are emotional about their view points in matters of society. They either think it is the absolute truth when in reality it is a mockery or they rebel against it thinking it is a lie. Sadly there is no amount of education or medication for this disorder. The persons suffering from this terrible affliction will be sadly condemned to be fooled and butt-hurt for the rest of their life. We as normal humans can only try to comfort them.

Hilda Pinup Jigsaw Puzzles

Image
Hilda By Duane Bryers is my all time favorite pinup girl. From all sources I find, she was published from the 1950's to the 1980's - yet one of the I'm posting below (turned into puzzles) has the date of 1990. So someone is wrong. I know the artist died in 2012, so they could not have gone longer then that. I also can't fine one from after 1990, but that doesn't mean none exist. I turned these into puzzles with Jigsaws Galore BTW - it's my favorite puzzle program for the PC, and I have done many thousands of puzzles on it over the years I've had it. BTW 2nd one is 96 pieces, I'm just not going to bother to correct it LOL.

Always One In A Crowd, AKA Every Group Has A Bad Apple

Image
This is a post in a group I'm in on Facebook. Got to wonder why this person claims to have to family or friends to be executor of her will. It's a total mystery when you do shit like post a rude ass emoji on someone's photo of themselves. Overwhelming positive reaction otherwise, just this one putting in her bonny finger of distain. I look at her page for the group and she has less points in the last 6 years than most of the people that reply to my posts generate in a day LOL. Literally has not one thing to say unless it's negative it seems. But there are just so many of those out there these days. I go out of my way to give people opportunity to express how they are feeling and give them some positive words in reply. My posts are either completely positive or an excuse to let it all out and express your pain. I put a lot of time into caring about others, but you will always get some twat that is completely into themselves and has the personality of a rat with brain dam...
