Yeah...she should be happy that the bear is wrecking her kayak and NOT HER...especially with all that ungodly fussing/wailing.

This discussion on tumbling made me recall the same thing—I wanted a tumbler, but we could not afford it.

There is no winning this battle. I have lost friends for being “unsupportive” in trying to keep them from doing stupid stuff. Like “I-am-going-to-quit-my-job, leave-my-family, move 1000+ miles-away-to-marry-this-guy-I-met-on-the-internet AND only-interacted-with-him-in-person-for-one-weekend... and OHH,…

I just lugged a 30-pound bag of used coffee grounds from Starbucks to dump into my garden. I frown at these kids and their silly decaffeinated pants.

I went to southern Mississippi last winter (to visit my family...I would have no reason to be there otherwise). I discovered several pairs of awesome brand-name duck winter boots at a Hudson’s Treasure Hunt for $10-$15/pair. I bought 5 different pairs of boots (all cute/functional), took them back to Colorado, figured…

My biggest problem is that I proritize all the crap around the home that needs to be done—recently coming to a head when I started suffocating under all of the $#!& that is cluttering the place up.

Ditto on the thrift store. I have found this massively helpful recently when I decided to declutter my house—the closet is simple because I do not feel financially attached to the contents.

It is fairly common for individuals to find creative ways to scam out of them. This includes pulling rank, getting a medical waiver, getting a permanent waiver, outright ignoring it, and so on.

Yeah...the tongue selfies make the “mentally 6 years old” image stick even better.

I had a similar experience in my co-ed dorms. The men’s bathroom was cordoned off because the water did not work. Over the course of a few days, the WORST smell emanated from that bathroom...yup, the guys were still using it.

NO MANSPREADING. The last thing I want on my flight is some guy’s leg pressed against mine for the entire danged flight. I do not care that your balls need air or whatever that ridiculous infringement of personal space is for.

Ditto. A few months ago, I went into the basement to check out the “man cave facilities” that my younger brother occupies and was horrified by what I saw. I spent HOURS working on a fraction of the filth...and the worst part was that the first thing I got from him was, “I cleaned it last month.”

I am an air traffic controller. One day, I was reading an aircraft his clearance, when I noticed a spider hanging in front of me. I somehow managed to calmly finish reading the clearance—even as I realized that the danged spider was hanging FROM MY $%^$%&%^ HEAD!

Son Goku is voiced by a woman. :-)

Ditto. The crying shame is that they cry all the time about how they need “people who can think outside the box,” yet those individuals are the first to leave because they cannot tolerate the bullcrap anymore.

I got a talking to because they did not approve of me dressing goth on my own time. “It sets a bad example...” and so on. I fired back with the squadron “mattress” down the hallway that dressed in very scanty attire—if they were going to try and fix my unprofessional attire, they would have to fix hers as well.

Cows eat vegetables. Since we are what we eat, cows are veggies.Duuuuhhhh! ;-)

Trader Joe’s carries a spreadable creamy goat cheese. It is perfection when added to my “usual” grilled cheese.

Almost empty jar + dog. It will heep them occupied for hours AND they will clean out the jar for you!

Ditto. If I am going to exercise to keep my body in good shape, then I want to eat healthy/tasty food to fuel it. The key is moderation.
