I find getting rid of large portions of my things to be therapeutic, and... I don't want to use the word empowering, but certainly helpful to productivity. However, I do keep things like food, or an unworn shirt, sometimes because I feel guilty, and resigned to using them up. I feel sorry for my unworn clothes and

That's sort of funny, but also sad.

The mathematical equipment sounds cool. I must sheepishly admit that I too collect folded aluminum foil and small containers of bacon grease.

I have been using this word 100% incorrectly my entire life.

This is an excellent idea.

I vote we replace bingewatching with knitting, for the sake of both the logical integrity of the game and and fairness to knitters. But you know, this raises another interesting problem; a lot of things on this list can be done at the same time. For instance, how could you choose between Netflix and knitting if you

See? We are not crazy.

Should have read the link before complaining.

Sounds familiar! My mom used to tease my grandmother for saving the smallest bits of leftovers in the world. Part of it was the insecurity of living through very uncertain times, but part of it is good old-fashioned Scottish stubbornness and frugality, which I'm also proud to say I inherited a not-small portion of :)

My grandmother was deeply affected by the anxiety of being poor during the war, and she retained her spendthrift ways up until she died just last year. Going through her things, what amazed me was that she kept everything, and so, so carefully. Every purchased item in its original box, often with the receipt taped to

My guess is that she smears sun-screen on her lips when she tans, and that's actually the real color of her skin.

I was not prepared for the thong. UNSEE.

She's got so much make-up on you can't really tell what she looks like; does she bear a resemblance to her father? Pretty hard to say.

I will check him out. Thanks! My ex got me into New Scandinavian Cooking; that's my style of cuisine, even though I have an entirely different suite of ingredients in Canada.

Can't think of anyone who could pull it off better. She's got the perfect skin tone for it. I would look like faded jaundice.

He's the lake and stars. I wish he were my dad.

The print is amazeballs. She's gutsy.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I LOVE cooking and I find her a bit pedestrian in addition to being a racist bitch. If I want traditional, full fat recipes, I will watch Jacques Pepin, thanks. But I don't really go by recipe's any more, and if I do it's for cuisines I've never tried before, so I will look it up

I made a nearly identical comment; that simply can't be right. Cooking from scratch is not the same thing as cooking cooking-show recipes from scratch.

Oh, she means it's like watching what's ON tv, and made a typo! Got it.
