I have a cleaning tip you might find useful. I use one of those flat microfiber pad floor mops to clean my shower walls. I spray on the cleaner, let it set for a bit then use the whole mop to scrub it all down. It gives even pressure and I can reach everything easily. I still have to get into the corners and detail…

As a person that had/has a lot of bloody noses, I’ve always just used cold water.

Add this one: Ego sum douchebag.

There was a ‘6' in there too.

Insurance agent here...if you knocked your coffee onto someone else’s laptop and destroyed it, you could make a claim under the liability portion of your homeowners or renter’s insurance. Liability insurance is usually first-dollar (no deductible). I feel a blog post coming on. Thanks Nick!

A therapist suggested the same. I haven’t always been able to practice it, but it definitely helps when I am able. He had the most poignant and compelling explanation for its effectiveness. He said the opposite of sadness isn’t happiness, it’s gratitude. 

That was the big thing one of the Midwives I had emphasized to me beforehand: “It is rough, but you get breaks! And if you don’t, you’re almost done!”

I wonder why women are so obsessed about a birth plan? Is it just an unhealthy distrust of everyone around them, and the need to be elitist about it? I literally have never had one, well, unless you consider ‘just get the kid out of me’. I didn’t allow myself to worry about the labour, because what purpose does it…

You don’t exactly get pop-ups on a Kindle. So I’m not sure the complain here.

what’s a “hard drive”?

Aw, thank you! I just wanted to find a way to get paid for reading novels.

I hate paper books. They are heavy and you have to have bright light to read them. I only buy drm products that I can break the drm on. There are a torrent of ways to get drm free books. You have fun moving your boxes and boxes of books and I’ll move my harddrive full of just as many books.

Whatever gets people TO read is good in my book, I don’t care if the books are branded on the side of a cow.

so books are basically good for reading once then becoming furniture.  assuming you don’t read to many books, marie kondo wouldn’t mind.

Yes; totally correct!

Writing is subjective. With that out of the way, I have an opinion:

One thing to remember though is, if you do fall for a scam don’t beat yourself up about it. Learn your lesson (don’t skip that part) and move on. These people are litterally professionals and you were/are a fish out of water. Given the right circumstances, psychology, and skill of the con-artist anyone can fall for a…

HP says the same thing about an old-ish laptop I have. So it’s not something weird or something you’re doing wrong.

Ha! That happens to me (though not as much anymore). I could never brush my teeth and clean my ears at the same time because of the mess it would make.
