With all due respect, making your child’s life miserable definitely sends the wrong message to them. There are absolutely times that you need to draw a line in the sand, set some consequences, and follow through on those consequences. You can do all of that without making their lives miserable.

What about ‘Particular’ instead of OCD? It gives off more of a “this is a person who likes things a certain way” and less of a “this person arranges their shit like this because they have some kind of tick” vibe.
nothing to see here
To that I say in my best Nelson Muntz voice, “HA HA!”
Only we Gen-Xers know the true power of APATHY!
#ICEBURN! Love this.
Sure, he may get you a championship....but he’s going to look like a serious tool doing it!
R.I.P. Mr. Aaron. Your accomplishments were made before the PED era and therefore will always carry more weight. Godspeed.
She’s bad, but she’s not “Jon Bon Jovi singing The Beatles classic, Here Comes the Sun, during a U.S. Presidential Inauguration” kind of bad. Watching that no talent ass clown lip sync that song made me want to swallow my tongue.
I heard an interview with her on NPR yesterday. She sounds like a wonderful person. Hopefully her poem will begin to reconstitute the dried husk that America has become.
Then it is on us to show them how to laugh! I’m a Gen-Xer and it is our superpower to point out what is funny about everything. It fits with our apathetic nature.
We have a sock hunter, too! She drags them down stairs while meowing....except with socks in her mouth it sounds “EEEEowwwww EEEEowwwww!”. She has also dragged wool sweaters down the stairs as well as wind pants. She’s the coolest.
The kitchen in the house I grew up in had one and I, too, have fond memories of eating at it. The house Mrs. OldNorthBridge and I purchased to raise our family in also has a Peninsula. My daughter named it “The Nook” and we have called it that for 10 years now. Good stuff!
Apple is so lame. Keep your high walled garden, ya jerks!

I like the cut of your jib!
My son has said some of the funniest words I have ever heard a human being say. One Sunday evening, while I was driving home from having dinner at my parent’s house with my two kids, I let out quite the SBD (silent but deadly). I knew that once it had travelled back to where my kids sat firmly strapped into their car…
Thank you for this. I needed to laugh like that. I ain’t even mad that my monitor is all wet now.
This! I have lived in New England for almost 47 years and at one point Dunkin’ Donuts, ss it was known then, used to have pretty decent coffee. It used to pair extremely well with their donuts. They used to make them on premises! Opening the door to a DD used to smell so AMAZING.
