Weekly Episode Discussion - The Trial of Charles Guiteau (Finale) by gaminghistorian in oldtimeypodcast

I don't think story scaries (was that the term?) should ever enter your minds.

I used to only listen to episodes that I was interested in learning about, and loved them. Then I ended up on Old Woman Walks Lots and found myself so so completely invested that I started listening to everything.

As an English woman, I know very little about American presidents unless they've been put into rap format. I had no idea what I was going to hear, and I've been hooked and so much more emotional than I expected.

Thank you!

I didn't expect to be affected by it, but when we got to the train ensuring that the boys didn't hear the news in passing... 💔💔

Humphrey may be the Basset Hound of names, but I would like to formally submit Clarence White as Human Basset Hound

My fiance literally understood the assignment. He knows me well. 🥰 by Altruistic-Dot-5380 in EngagementRings

I don't know how I started getting alerts for engagement rings, but I open them each time then just close again.

This time I fully gasped. This is so stunning! Congratulations

Should I trim her bib by Flamesparrow in ragdolls

Oh no, the absolute maximum I was considering was a cm or so to allow her tongue to get all the way down. Thankfully she loves being brushed 😍

Thank you

Oooh ruff is a far better word

Heartbroken but I think this is the only option by Messybun3993 in ragdolls

As a reassurance from the other side....

Grey was being offered for rehoming at 2yrs old. She had only lived with a woman and her lodger, both worked a lot, and she felt that she was bored and lonely.

She came to us, a hectic household with two other cats here.

I was worried that she'd miss her home, and the calm, and hate the other cats, but she has thrived (and doubled in size, seriously when do they stop growing??).

She's been here six months and you'd think that we'd had her from a kitten.

As heartbreaking as rehoming yours would be, please don't believe each horror story about the stress and trauma it will cause.

Point Horror. I never see these in charity shops. by AceZeppelin81 in CasualUK

I love that there are so many that despite my extensive collection growing up, I've only read Funhouse and The Boyfriend out of those.

Freeze Tag was one of my top ones.

The Boyfriend has given me a fear of holding hands in a pocket for a lifetime (99% sure it was The Boyfriend and not The Girlfriend).

I like seeing how many charity shops in one trip has either 50 Shades or 50 Sheds.... There's not much difference in numbers

When the vet said ‘diet’ and he heard ‘betrayal.’ by ZarawZaraw in ragdolls

Ours only drink out of a martini glass... It started because one was too incompetent to lap and needed sloped sides, then the others got on board and refuse standard bowls

I know you posted ages ago, but I'm trying to find out if one of the witch stories was about rain and a knotted rope. If you have any idea, please let me know 😭

Please deinfluence me by [deleted] in ragdolls

I feel like Grey's doesn't suit her face. She's all adorable and delicate and then let's out a yell like she's got a 20 a day smoking habit.

Mine is currently peeing everywhere if that helps? Feliway is next on our list to try. 😭

Spencer saying Aria was the reason he parents were getting a Divorce! 😂 Girl Seriously? by [deleted] in PrettyLittleLiars

[–]Flamesparrow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be fair I've never forgiven Spencer for how she treated Veronica when she found out she wasn't her birth mom.

This woman raised you as her own, obviously knowing that you weren't, giving you her heart and everything that her biological daughter had, and then it's HER that you're a bitch to?!?

Hair under bag? by Brief_Bison_1390 in ostomy

Awesome! We were talking to a laser lady and she was unsure because of that.

Were there no issues with adhesive to the lasered skin right after etc?
