    I've been shopping the Marketplace, craigslist and others for stuff in preparation for moving next week. Amazes me how many people can't spell what they're trying to sell.

    It's from a generation of people whose main form of communication is texting on their phones, but are too lazy to actually type the words so they use the microphone instead, then don't bother to make it readable. If all their friends can read it, why can't everyone else? Yes, one of my...

    I admire you working from home while also caring for your toddler, but when your job is primarily PHONE CONTACT with clients, for God's sake, get a babysitter!!!! Do you realize how annoying it is to try to do business with your company over the phone, while your baby is crying or...

    "Go drive that car into a tree!" I wish I'd said when cleaning outside the C-Store where I worked, when those two pimple-faced idiot boys drove by shouting, "Go on a diet! ha ha ha ha....."

    But if your body shape already looks like you're pregnant or worse, there's no point in trying to look 'slim' and most of us know it. We're not fooling anyone, but at least the fat bulges aren't all on display to be gawked at. They help disguise what's below the empire waistline, add at least...

    I used to drive my family nuts with that one. I did the typical little kid thing and kept singing it over and over and over. :lau

    To the moon, Alice, to the moon! It lifts and separates! Kiss my grits. Lucy, you've got some 'splaining to do. It's not nice to fool Mother Nature. Reach out and touch someone. Not your regular sized weiner, but still able to satisfy. How many licks does it take..... Hey hey hey, it's Fat...

    You're going to LOVE IT!!! I was very fortunate in 2017 to live directly in the center of the path of totality in 2017. Only my sister came to see it; we set up lawn chairs in the back yard and had our eclipse glasses and a bottle of wine ready. It was very incredible to see! It wasn't pitch...

    She bragged that her husband covered all their expenses, and that her income was just hers to spend as she liked. No kids. I have no idea if she was telling the truth. But yes, I often remind myself not to judge anyone on appearances. There's no way to know the whole story or what struggles...

    One of my most painful memories was from a difficult time in my life; I was employed, but as a single (divorced) mom I struggled to keep a roof over our heads and my son fed, and could barely manage bologna sandwiches for my lunch. One co-worker, "Emily" (her real name), always went to local...

    In our pasture right now, behind the house, we have our breeder cattle with appropriate names - Corona (born at the beginning of the pandemic), Homer (bull named after a grandpa who had 12 children and uncounted numbers from his mistresses), Missy (my milk cow someday), and Salty Girl, Pepper...

    I went on a week-long canoe trip once (as I'm sure many of you have also done, or something similar) - seven days, always wet, with four pre-teens having the time of their lives. We slept on the ground in a sleeping bag, cooked over a fire, used the bathroom behind or over whatever fallen tree...

    I'm so glad you didn't. I soooo want to get up on my soapbox here and lecture (again) about the frustrations and judgmental attitudes that deaf or hard-of-hearing people endure all day every day, while for others it's just a momentary annoyance. But I won't. This thread is for what you wish...

    People are in too much of f***ing hurry to check their own text and correct the errors. But I agree, computers make it worse because people are depending on computers to do the spelling and grammar for them. It's especially awful for children and teens who are learning the WRONG spellings and...

    Beating a dead horse here, but it still just gets under my skin every single time: Their - possessive! It belongs to someone or something. This is their sign. There - location! Opposite of 'here'. The sign is over there. They're - contraction of 'they' and 'are'! They're putting their sign over...

    I wish I could tell people that posting on a public forum can result in responses that you don't agree with, or even dislike - but you DO NOT get to tell people what they can or cannot answer in response to your thread. You do not OWN the thread; the owners of the website DO. So as long as...
