My thought exactly. What a waste of money. When the romance with this trend wears off, the landfills will be brimming with these things.

I'm a music nerd and have been collecting records since I was a teenager. Endless fun!

My boyfriend starts getting leery of expiry dates early and stops consuming the product days before the date stamped on it. Then it's on me to use the item up.

Thank you. I should keep a roll of the stuff at my desk for visitors who err on the side of opening their mouths.

Oh, Lee Valley, is there anything you can't take care of? *swoon*

Go piecemeal. Start off with the basics, then acquire more items as they're needed. Also note that good bargains can be had on used tools at garage sales!

Printing cards hasn't been the same since the good ol' days of a Commodore 64, The Print Shop floppy disk, and a dot matrix printer!

I'd prefer it if certain co-workers went with the nothing at all approach rather than opening their mouths. Their silence is golden.

Too bad this won't work in an office environment.

I recently heard about something called Owling. A person climbs up onto something and perches there, watching the goings on around them. Apparently, "it's the new planking." Seriously.

Next, moms-to-be will be stapling Anne Geddes dolls to their guts.

I schedule deadlines into my Outlook calendar at work and add a reminder. For example, one week before the deadline date, a reminder will pop up and I'll perform any followup actions.

Exactly. Most 20-somethings can spell "stress." They can say "stress." But they can't truly define it. They haven't lived it.

I'm with you, Myrna. If people are concerned about stress in their 20s, they're in for a surprise because the 30s ain't no hell either.

One of the big wigs at work always ends statements with "and that." We get a kick out of placing bets on how many will be said during an upcoming meeting.

4's rock. They certainly earn the respect of their peers. And their hard work doesn't go unnoticed, thus these people tend to move onwards and upwards within the company. The downside for a 4 must be existing amongst a bunch of 1s or 2s. Surely quite draining, as I don't imagine many 1s or 2s aspire to improving…

I was shocked to hear about the shootings when I turned on the radio this morning. And I don't understand why the warning system wasn't utilized - which risked more casualties due to lack of knowledge. Students studying in the vicinity and living in residences were on the local CBC radio morning program, complaining…

This is the boat I'm in. I can't control stupidity at work.

That needs to be on a bumper sticker.

I think L.A. is overpowering them in most areas so, frankly, they deserve to win the cup. I shudder saying that but it's true. I wish this series wasn't such a slam dunk.
