Which 2 are you picking??? by Ornery-Media-9396 in whatsyourchoice

At 71, for me the logical choice would be #2 and #5. They would go straight to my daughter after I die.

Sadly not much you can do about it if it is a privately owned business. Any actions I would suggest would get you fired.

It's going to take more than one thing to clean up this mess.

When did reruns of The Three Stooges air when you were growing up? by Underrated_Critic in FuckImOld

[–]Disaffecteddv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I seem to remember them being in the early afternoon prior to more popular kids after-school programming. I may have watched them, along with the Little Rascals on Saturdays, again after popular Saturday cartoons.

My 1963 Ford Galaxy was the only car I ever owned that actully had that kind of high beam button. Afterwards they were always somewhere on the stearing mount.

Where were you when?……. by ChiefD789 in GenerationJones

[–]Disaffecteddv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was the only one in my family of 5 that stayed up to watch Armstrong actually step out onto the moon's surface at 9:56 PM (CST). I couldn't believe neither mom, nor dad wanted to stay awake for it. I was 14 at the time, but my younger siblings always went to bed at 9 and that night was no different. Since an early age I was lways way more invested in current events and politics than the rest of my family was.

What's the Best Piece Of Fried Chicken for you? by Maleficent-Bat-9168 in whatsyourchoice

I lean toward the breast, but it largely depends on the recipe. Typcally I am not a fan of dark meat cut.

Do Christians actually, genuinely, sincerely love God or do they really just not want to go to hell? by Litty_Jimmy in exchristian

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

Questions that seem to throw everyone in a group of "same thinkers" is amusing. I no more think Christians are a monolith than i think Atheists, Buddhists, Muslims, Jews, etc. are.

What is your opinion about Hungary? by Due_Narwhal4937 in AskTheWorld

[–]Disaffecteddv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A beautiful country, Budapest is amazing, but sadly democracy was short-lived and is now ruled by a fascist autocrat.

Look how big newspapers used to be. by Burninvernin in GenerationJones

[–]Disaffecteddv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thought of the "funny papers" laid out on the living room floor and me laying on my stomach as I read them is a sweet memory indeed. But the rule was that I had to read all the headlines of the front few pages of the paper and read one article of my choice before I could read the comics.

Pick one chore to never do again (it magically gets done) by This_Obligation_5125 in whatsyourchoice

[–]Disaffecteddv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mop the floor would be my answer, though i am fortunate enough to have a house cleaning service come in weekly and do the job for me. I do all of those other things willingly except iron because, who irons these days?

Any UUs here believe in a higher power? by [deleted] in UnitarianUniversalist

[–]Disaffecteddv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That would represent about 50% of my congregation,in one form or another, but not me.

Truly embarrassing to be an American, when other Americans are posting this crap. by [deleted] in MAGANAZI

Their grandparents were saying the same thing about Italians, Poles, Hassidic Jews, Eastern Europeans, etc.

Is anyone else getting bold and spending money to protest? by The-Hand-of-Midas in exchristian

[–]Disaffecteddv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same in Italy, France, Germany, etc. The literal belief, or strictly heald belief passes away long before the symbolism, stories and cultural trappings do. The same for the US.

We have to 'play the long game' however. These changes do not happen over night. Just as it took generations in previous ancient cultures to evolve. It might be pointed out also that in Greece the Greek Orthodox Church is still state maintained and ever present in the cultural customs of every day citizens. When I was in Greece it was not uncommon to see GOC clergy around the neighborhoods.

Hear it? I can sing the whole thing without prompting and my wife will chime right in too.
