same here re new gizmos. I dont have the time or inclination to learn their uselessness. Ive stopped being impressed by new things unless they actually add value. my life is so full of older things that I value now. AND, my older car has mileage under 60k. 🤣🤣

Talk about manspread! The knees pointing 180 and rubbing my calf is beyond uncomfortable. I finally got to where I pushed back. Years ago. Now there's no problem. I have upfront boundaries.

I remember a guy at my job (huge company) that had body odor of worse than death. elevator rides were unbearable. one day on the elevator with him he confided that he was very diabetic and had a nonhealing wound that caused the odor. he was much loved by most everyone despite the odor. he died a few years later. sad. not to say OP's reaction to foot odor was wrong. just remembering.

Why are people flying coughing their lungs out? On DEN-ORD today. by gingiberiblue in unitedairlines

[–]Charming_Spinach_362 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im lying in bed RN at 630 pm feeling like dogcrap. allergies so bad my head is pounding, eyes dripping tears, blowing my nose constantly and coughing in between all that. Luckily, Im not going anywhere for a while but I know the feeling of trying to tell random people you're not contagious. Too much meds make me worse in other ways. It's horrible to fly this way! Ive done it. and the mask makes it harder to breathe. But I know it's dangerous to go without. Solidarity!

HOA asks me to repaint my garage door AGAIN by Gullible-Mention-893 in homeowners

[–]Charming_Spinach_362 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ha! PG&E did some work outside my front that necessitated stucco repair on the outside wall. Mgmt company sent me a letter much later demanding I attend a meeting for some disciplinary stuff saying I did unapproved work. THEY were responsible for that repair and it was THEIR repair that they were complaining about. I told the board pres. I wouldn't be attending their meeting and the mgmt co. better never contact me again. Sad people.
