What about landline users? Yes, I know, “who uses a land line anymore?”, etc. We use a landline. I’m tired of getting the president calling at dinnertime to rant about liberals.

+1 to your comment (it seems your star isn’t accepting my clicks, silly star). It’s the great thing about Jeopardy, no damn celebrities, except for the occasional fund raising week. Just folks you might run into anywhere and have a normal conversation, except that they are very, very well versed on trivia. And have…

Heck, I totally forgot about renting consoles, that was pretty cool too. I never did buy a PS1, just rented it from time to time.

My wife just made us bacon this morning with the method mentioned in the article, but lining the baking sheet with parchment paper. It makes cleanup a breeze.

No, I meant back in the day before there was Gamefly or Redbox, back as the article mentions when Blockbuster had gaming exclusives and discounted used games. I’m talking a couple of decades ago, back before there was a Gamestop either. Our local Blockbuster was run by a pretty cool guy who would call his favorite…

It’s one of the things I miss about my local Blockbuster, being able to rent games I might not be interested in buying, but just wanted to check out so I knew what people were talking about.

The choices are: Alexa, Amazon, Computer, Echo.

Forgive my ignorance (I don’t own an Echo), but isn’t there a way to have the device activate on some other word or set of words? This would seem to be a quicker method. You know, something like “bridge computer” or “M5"?

You left out the enjoyment of screaming the same command repeatedly at an inanimate object.

Well, you’re right of course in that it can be done with constant diligence, but my wife is the one who got stuck with them several times and she has had hand surgery on both hands and so has a weaker grip. This means it’s really important to her that the bags aren’t overloaded. And if she wants plastic bags, she’s…

Use them yourself (or give them to a friend) as cushioning for storage, moving day boxes, or mail shipments.

There are a lot of places like zoos that will allow feeding of animals with provided food. My all-time favorite is Jungle Gardens in Sarasota, Florida. You can feed flamingos which is simply awesome, although perhaps intimidating for little kids since they will sometimes crowd you and try to eat right from your hand…

Thankfully I come from a generation after the grease of the fifties but before the hair products of the seventies, so I’ve never used product. I do use a two in one shampoo. And in spite of my wife’s entreaties, I only comb my hair once a day and according to her I almost always miss the back ;)

Thankfully I come from a generation after the grease of the fifties but before the hair products of the seventies,…

It’s funny but I remember when growing up (a half century ago!) that feeding bread to birds was somehow considered a good thing. We’d take bread that was getting stale and go to the park, break it up and toss it out. I guess it might have been more because we had the bread to spare (no pun intended).

Not true. The problem with having alcoholic beverages is that beer, hot temperatures, beach driving and little kids don’t mix. I guess I forgot to mention that most of the beaches of the entire county are open to driving. You only have to visit on a busy weekend with kids and cars everywhere to realize that those…

The article is very good advice and can even save you from getting a fine, at least in Volusia County, Florida. The county is home of Daytona Beach of course, and mile and miles of nice and popular beaches, and they really do enforce the rules about not feeding wildlife, period. It makes the animals dependent on…

For some reason the feed is not letting me give you a star, but that reply my friend is most star worthy!

True, but Kinja has other feeds for those kinds of stories.

Hmm, this article doesn’t seem very Lifehackery.

I know this is going to sound kind of weird, but thankfully her major, and assumed future career goal, wasn’t something athletic or artistic that would now be in jeopardy after these injuries. As an aerospace engineering major these injuries shouldn’t be any sort of setback. And as a lifetime, now retired, aerospace…
