Paying extra for the Lindt is worth the price. At Christmas time, a box of Lindt chocolates are always around. I could eat 3 or more of them and feel fine. One Hershey kiss and my stomach rebelled.

If you read the labels on chocolate bars they say “chocolatey” flavour, not chocolate which means there is a minimal amount of real chocolate in the candy. I love chocolate and will pay for imported chocolate which labels chocolate as the main ingredient and not an afterthought.  A little bit of the real thing goes a…

I used to have a TD account and they pulled that BS a lot especially at the end of the month when people were most likely to be writing cheques. If you caught them, they would reverse the charge, if not then it was found money for them. 

Some parents are determined to make their kids suffer in order to “build character”. A smart parent teaches the kid the most efficient way to do things. Show them how to make their beds once the proper way and you won’t be yelling at them every morning for doing it wrong. 

An ex and I must stress this ex, got angry with me because I used an eggbeater to make meringue because his mother had always used a fork to beat her eggs. Therefore, I was lazy. He also grew up with a well and drawing buckets of water and saw showers as decadent luxuries. It’s a very strange mindset.

I remember that movie and thinking that this could happen in almost any fast food restaurant and no one would bat an eye. Keep those fries frying at any cost. 

Yeah, all those Africans who were enslaved? They thought it was just a 3 hour cruise. Mistakes happen!

I’m kind of surprised that she wasn’t followed home from the inauguration. She looked pretty suspicious because she was so well dressed and happy. /s

Yeah, the dickhead needed to be charged and locked up as well. Andrea Yates probably thinks of her kids every day knowing what she did. Meanwhile he gets a do-over with another woman.

I worked fast food and we ran out of fries. The next day when the manager opened we got reprimanded for not re-stocking the non-existent fries. When this was pointed out to them, the response was because fries weren’t checked off on the closing list as stocked our work was considered incomplete.

This goes on my list of “Well, that’s never happened before.” Which is why my fear of being eaten by a shark in an inland lake is rationale.

I had a first and last date with a guy who switched tables 3 times after we were seated. He was going for a fourth but I refused to move.

He’s  the kind of person who would put a $5 bill in the collection plate and take back $4.

I’ve only put mine up when freezing rain is in the forecast because chipping ice off them results in breakage.

Or a blue-eyed Jesus on velvet.

It’s a no-win situation. Take a minimum wage job to support your family. Get crapped on because you work minimum wage. Take welfare or the equivalent because you can’t find work and have hungry kids to feed, you get crapped on. Take a minimum wage job so you don’t have to take out crippling student loans, you’re…

No, first they have to clean and re-stock, THEN, they can go home. On their next shift, they get a write up for not properly cleaning and stocking.

Several years ago I was chatting with someone on a dating website. They started talking about their second home in Florida. How it sustained damage during a hurricane and their efforts to repair it. My late partner had taught me a lot of basic repairs since we lived on a farm and I offered some advice. Then they made…

Seltzers make me pee a lot and there is a chemical aftertaste. Alcoholic apple ciders for the win. Cranberry apple and I just found an apple ginger flavour that is very refreshing.

You may want forgiveness from me, but I don’t have to give it. I’m not holding onto anger or hurt.  I’ve just decided that you aren’t worth the time.
