I have chronic pain (though, post-surgery I’m jokingly calling it chronic aches and pains, since it’s reduced and I feel fucking high sometimes from the state of less pain), and while I don’t qualify for medical marijuana, it looks like Canada might make the MJ legal within a couple of years. If they do, I am 100%…

A. That kid is rocking his look, including the socks.

You’re not aging. Come over to my area. We’re just all drinking the expensive wine while loudly saying we can’t tell the difference to piss people off :D

I hope she rehabilitates as well as possible.

to be susceptible to blackmail you have to have done some reprehensible shit.

Monsters.

Ugh, right? It didn’t matter how clean I was and how clean the clothes was. It stunk before, during, and after.

I used to wear cotton shirts under my work uniforms in hopes that the cotton would suck up some of the stink because, well, you’re going to get into trouble stinking at work, especially in food service.

I’ve never used fabric softener and I’ve tried the vinegar trick. Doesn’t work.

a refuge for people who have completely and utterly given up.

I generally end up buying men’s shirts a lot because it’s easier to find cotton. Or I just suck it up and buy $50+ cotton shirts at upscale women’s clothing stores.

I tried that but it never helped. You could tell if I had a polyester shirt in the dryer as soon as you opened the door. They stink horribly. :(

I stink in it. There’s no other word for it. And, worse, the smell eventually doesn’t wash out of the armpits, so it smells coming out of the washer.

I like how their clothes looks, but the excessive amounts of polyester means I can’t actually wear any of it around people if I risk sweating even a drop of moisture, lest I smell like a wet dog next to a space heater.

I’m 6 months out of breast reduction and my boobs still look like I accidentally got breast implants as a free “perk.” No one my age should have boobs this perky.

Right? One of them had her gift giving shower before the wedding so that everyone could bring their gifts to her at the party and not need to travel with them.

I always thought that, too. But then Family member was invited to 3 destination weddings and decided not to go to any. All three brides freaked out about how offensive this was, since they wanted big weddings. Well, I dunno. Don’t have your wedding in fucking Cancun then.

I feel food gifts are the only truly appreciated gift in the world. Because even if it’s a food the person doesn’t like, there is always a guest or a relative who will like it...so it still makes someone happy :)

1 Pembroke corgi and 1 Cardigan corgi currently, plus an english springer spaniel (you’d think it is a weird match, but they’re prefect as a team).

Cats deserve birthday gifts more than their owners ;)
