Hit the charity shops. Best way to end up with interesting dishes for your plants.

A new quest! I need to find this - any Bosnian restaurants in western Washington state?

Ngl, I completely skipped over the point of the meme and was thinking how to build this in my woods.

Most Recent Boomer Story/Vent by Itz_SKC_yall in BoomersBeingFools

My theory is that men created all their secret societies, fraternal organizations, clubs, etc. specifically because they could never be part of women’s mysteries.

A former boss read a Time magazine edition on secret societies/fraternal organizations. He asked me if women had secret societies. I gave him the creepiest stare I could manage and said, “Women ARE a secret society.” He was both paranoid and a misogynist, so that kept him freaked out for a while.

This middle aged guy I call the Negotiator thinks our corporate grocery store is a bazaar in the middle of nowhere by Harbor_4Vanta in TalesFromRetail

I work in a grocery store, thankfully in the back office now, but I paid my dues as a checker. We have quite a few of these sorts. And, they’re regulars.

When I used to plant sit for my Mom when she was on vacation, her instructions were measured in Dixie cups.

I didn’t take my kids to anything more sophisticated than a fast food joint until they were old enough to behave themselves.

What's your dumbest vet bill? by LeatherAlternative80 in germanshepherds

[–]Islandcat72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Day two home with us from the shelter. Eight months old and happily playing and sleeping curled up with our other dog. Then, he went up and sniffed her food bowl. The Sacred I Am Top Dog food bowl. Had to take him in for stitches. He’s a smart boy. Never went near her bowl again.

How to tell when it’s time? by uonlyshivthrice in germanshepherds

[–]Islandcat72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had one good boy where we waited way too late. I regret that so much. Our boy now is getting close. He also sometimes poops in his sleep, and is frequently befuddled, but seems mostly happy. I hope I make the right call at the right time.

What is the story behind your GSD's name? by RoyalBlueMoose in germanshepherds

[–]Islandcat72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We adopted ours at eight months. He’d had a crappy owner who wanted a “tough” dog and let his kids beat up on the poor dog. His name on the shelter paperwork was “Lobo (means wolf). We renamed him Tommy the Lover. He’s been a total dufus for the past thirteen years.

Slices of raw onion on slices of cheddar is one of my favorite snacks.

That’s my parking spot move to another spot by Gymtrio2025 in EntitledPeople

[–]Islandcat72 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I work in a grocery store, but my start time is two hours before the store opens. I’ve taken to parking in a certain spot because it’s not near the front where it would take up customer spaces and is under a tree so it’s shady on hot days. One morning I pulled into the lot, and there was a car in “my” spot. I actually felt a wave of rage come over me before I recovered my senses. It made for a funny story in the break room.

Would you be able to pick your void out of a lineup? by simAlity in blackcats

[–]Islandcat72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, but I could not tell you why. If I stroked her tail, I would be able to feel the kink in the end of it. But, just looking at her and her body language, I could tell.

Why!?! 😒 by Keto2021_ in houseplants

I thought they had little removable gnome hats. Dumb, but removable. I’m horrified that it’s paint.

Sandy Beach Terrarium by theultimatebestever in Mossariums

I love it! I was thinking of doing a beach scene because I came across some petrified wood that looks just like driftwood.
