I've been eating Taco Bell weekly since I was a teenager, and I'm 45 now. I can't think of a single time I've gotten sick from it. If all you eat is crap without any balance to your diet, it's not the Taco Bell that's the problem.

I remember the times McDonald's and Hardee's made me sick, but those times were 30ish years ago.

Well, the Capitol of Minnesota could have been called Pigs Eye after a French Canadian fur trapper if it wasn't for a Catholic priest changing it to St Paul.

Clean the surface to get any slime and loose dirt off. Use a primer that adheres to the type of material that the pool is made of, Killz or Zissner. Then apply the paint color in enough layers to the desired tone. Doing it right takes longer, but it'll last longer.

The paint in the pool would have stripped regardless without cleaning and priming which I'm guessing they skipped. The hydrogen peroxide just sped things up.

My wife stopped eating out for nearly every meal recently and started cooking 90% of what we consume, best decision we've made for our health and our pocketbook. Food is processed less and we can control what's in it, and in turn we're both almost back to our college weight. Turning fresh produce and protein into a meal is where it's at.

Derpy cats are the best. I'm sure they look at us the same way, I often feel judged by my Maine Coon when I do anything a normal human does.

People get sick from eating olives? Man I can eat a jar of green olives, pair it with a brick of cheddar cheese and you've got yourself a meal.

You too? Door dash was the first to go, now I'd rather make something and know I'm not going to end up throwing out half of a greasy meal. When I broke down my spending several months ago, food was easily one of the biggest expenses that I had control over.

I'm sorry for your loss. I haven't lost a cat in many years thankfully, but it's never easy and I still remember the fun times with my old friend. I hope you still remember the good times with Gigi.
