10 years ago my son was 7 years old. Our neighbor was a single mom with a daughter a year older than my kid. She called me one day and asked for a cup of sugar. I sent my son over her house with the sugar. Our neighborhood was older and the homes are close together, often with shared driveways. My kid probably walked…

When I was a teen in the late 80s I answered phones in my local Catholic parish rectory after school. I used to read the National Catholic Register that the church received in the mail and inevitably, an article appeared warning the Faithful about the Satanic influence of rock & roll. I was a kid who always had his…

Ugh I treat invasive plants from our parks and open spaces for a living and your post is giving me nightmares. Well done!

I’m dropping out of school tomorrow to start cleaning carpets.

Before digital, filmmakers had to keep their work short because film was expensive. Now that it’s all cheap pixels, there is little incentive to edit.

In NJ, we call the drivers who fail to keep right except to pass “New Yorkers.”

When looking at the price per lb of dog food, it may be more economical to buy raw chicken, pork or beef at the supermarket, cook it and feed it to the dog.

Trailers are RVs are above my pay grade, so my family does plenty of tent camping for affordable vacations. Every time we pitch a tent, it rains. Started renting rustic cabins which are little more than 4 walls, a roof and some bunk beds and we’ve never been happier (and drier). Finding cabins that allow dogs can be a…

I left my spouse 5 years ago and we have a teenage son. It was ugly and my ex-in-laws would probably punch my face in if they saw me but my ex and I have rekindled our friendship. We have our separate lives and are dating other people but we talk every day and we each use the other as a reference on our respective…

Something something jackbooted thugs something something 2A something something freedom something something liberty.

And I don’t like the complete lack of bumpers. One minor bump on the front or rearand you’ll be replacing the headlights, hood, rear hatch door and other stuff.... and possibly cause structural damage.

My blue jay is well behaved and I have a feeder full of peanuts just for him and a nuthatch. Starlings are the greedy bastards of the bird world. They clean out my feeder in hours and make a mess. They’re an invasive species as well.

I bought a cheap bird feeder at a yard sale last year and have become a little obsessive over my birds. Staff at my local Wild Birds Unlimited know me by name. I have a webcam on my feeders. I’ve learned to live with squirrels but I spend a great deal of time chasing the a**hole starlings and mourning doves away.

LMFAO that is AWESOME.

I drive a 2005 Wrangler for work and I often receive the Jeep wave from the bros in their fancy, jacked up Jeeps festooned with silly lights, flags, stickers and other paraphernalia. I never wave back.

I didn’t know Audis of that era could make it to 100k miles. CP even before the CEL comes on and the dealership wants $2k to reset it.

I’ve been waking up at 2-4 am several nights/week since the lockdown started and I began taking melatonin 2 weeks ago. I can fall asleep in seconds but I’m still waking up before the sunrise :/

I have a potted palm that is about 5' tall.  It was fine and healthy for 2 months. Now each frond is drying up. I am watering it more frequently but it doesn’t seem to have helped. 

That’s not a bad idea but gosh those THROBBING BIOLOGICAL URGES may drive me crazy.
