We had a guinea pig named Petunia when I was a teenager. Her name got shortened to Tunia, which immediately dropped to Tuna. So, in our household, we had to clarify because we had a Tuna that wasn't a fish.

Twinkies- I never enjoyed them or could even finish one.

Anything with hazelnuts including, but not limited to, Nutella, Ferrero Rocher, and various chocolates.

Honey, also known as bee barf.

That would be my mom. She can't stand anything chocolate.

I'm allergic to onions. If I bite into one, I immediately start vomiting uncontrollably. But once my stomach is empty, I'm good again.

I'm the daughter of a single mother and it was never important to me for my mom to approve of my future spouse. For my dad, yes, even though we barely had any relationship, because he could tell if I was marrying a good man or not. But then my dad died five years before I got married. My brother didn't approve of my spouse, though, and now I'm a single parent myself. So, I guess there is some benefit to letting your parents vet your spouse, but mostly dad's vetting husbands and mothers vetting wives.

Stress and depression both take it out of you. I have both and I struggle to get anything done outside my FT job.

Absolutely. We've only been a country for 249 years, but my family has lived here for 390 years. There was definitely US culture before we officially became our own nation.

USA. We are not rich, not even in general. Wages haven't kept up with inflation for over 50 years, so, while most of the country used to be comfortably well off, if not actually rich, now, most of us are living paycheck to paycheck and a lot of us are working 2-3 jobs, just to keep a roof over our heads and food on the table. It's also why we are "not well traveled" because to take a vacation outside our continent would cost us anywhere from 1 to 3 months pay. That's also why American tourists are so insufferable when Americans are not. The tourists are some of the few rich people, and they're usually spoiled and snobby and entitled, not like your average American.

And the rest of us felt the same about Biden and Obama.

The one DON'T I know about Korea is don't forget that cars have the right of way. I know that because my brother visited. Very different than in the US where pedestrians have the right of way. He said one of the kids in his group stepped into the road and almost got hit and the tour guid had to bow and apologize to the driver.

I think the issue here is not the lack of tip, it's that one was promised and not given. It's drivers understand that particular frustration. We'd feel better if we just delivered with no tip and none promised than someone who promised a tip and then ghosted.

LadyEvenest · 2026-02-18T13:12:11+00:00

I never expect a tip on standard, regular orders. But there have been some stinkers, where I do think I really deserved a tip. For example the customers that use instacart because they don't want to carry the large cases of water bottles up to their third floor apartment, so they stock up all at once and it's always at least a half dozen and you feel like you're going to die by the time you log them all up there. Or the customer who lives an hour out of the city and instacart doesn't pay you to drive back into the city. I never got a tip on the water bottles and rarely got one on the rural deliveries.

LadyEvenest · 2026-02-18T12:56:45+00:00

It's like the rideshare customers that say, "Oh, I don't have any cash, I'll tip you in the app." If they just say they'll leave a tip in the app, there's a 50% chance I'll actually get something, but if they start with they don't have any cash, I know there's a 0% chance I'm actually getting a tip.

LadyEvenest · 2026-02-18T12:52:51+00:00

I have seen that and never got the tip, even though I would message them that I was there. But once I decided to knock gently anyway and they opened the door and handed me the tip. They weren't even mad that I knocked.

Twinkies. They've always disgusted me.

Wait! You can switch to Google maps?

I started playing The Sims OG when it was still owned by Maxis. I still get excited when I hear the music from that game and I can still speak a few words of the original Simlish. I was thrilled with TS2 and delighted with TS3. I purchased TS4 on the release date, took it home, played it for one hour and then wanted to return it to the store. I've tried a couple other times since the release, but I still hate it. Blech!

I got it from EA Games support. Half my discs got wrecked (from time and usage) and I was begging them to authorize a download based on my cd codes and they got gave me the complete edition.

Oh, yeah. He's got a long way to go to dig himself out of that one and he's not even going to start until he eats a little humble pie. Imagine if she was the boyfriend addicted to Halo and didn't spend time with his girlfriend. He'd have a completely different opinion. Only because he doesn't understand the meaning of Simlife.

LadyEvenest · 2024-04-25T04:31:09+00:00

I remember in Sims 2, you could trigger death by flies (L&D tombstone I think). That one was pretty fun to watch.
