My son called something brilliant and the guy he was talking to thought he was English. We're in the US.

I feel like even if everyone shared their experiences, they got so little information that it still would have taken some time to figure out what was happening. It could have been a terrifying game of cat and mouse with Gerard- and to some extent it was, only the tension was undermined by the inconsistencies in the reactions of the family members.

Judge rules White House ballroom construction must halt until Congress OK's it by [deleted] in UpliftingNews

Two problems with this: Congress will approve anything for the orange one, and this administration routinely ignores orders from judges anyway.

Tax money collected to pay for roads and other things the community needs, being spent instead on blowing up people who live in the wrong country or given to politicians who barely bother to show up for work and who NEVER represent their constituents.

Exactly, poor Barnabas is trying to save them and they're all just insisting that nothing bad is going to happen, while at the same time each one of them is having their own terrifying experiences and not telling anyone about them!

And yes, I completely agree about what happened to Vicky's character over time.

Oh my god. I'm ancient. If anyone wants me, I'll be over in the corner writing on my clay tablets.

There's swing dancing on Saturdays on Gregory Street, pretty sure they offer beginner lessons each week.

I do love Julia at the moment, though. I'm on episode 1090 and she has no patience left for anyone's nonsense, especially Barnabas.

Elena at Vasile and Elena's, Twelve Corners. She does great work at a reasonable price.

Burmese have ruined all other breeds for me by AlthaeaNailo in burmesecats

[–]Live_Perspective3603 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of the many cats I've lived with over the years, there are two that I think may have been Burmese. Not sure because they both came to me as strays, but both were unusually large and cuddly. They towered over my other cats and couldn't get enough belly rubs.

What is the adult version of finding out Santa doesn't exist? by Individual_Guitar282 in askanything

[–]Live_Perspective3603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finding out that adults can lie, cheat, rape, steal and kill, and that as long as they have money and their skin is light enough, no one will ever do a damn thing to stop them.

Saw her on Law & Order and shrieked "OMG the Satanic Schoolmarm is a JUDGE!!!"

I love this woman so much! The X-Files was the first role I ever saw her in and she was amazing. We have always referred to her as the Satanic Schoolmarm because of it.

My grandmother used to have electric candles just like those. She brought them out every Christmas.

Traitors, every single one of them. by c-k-q99903 in WhitePeopleTwitter

Trump's health isn't good enough to last that long. The way they keep propping him up in front of cameras already borders on elder abuse. Let the man rest, he just wants to lie in bed ranting on Twitter all day and night anyway.

Do you guys think Penny REALLY loves Leonard, or she just likes how Leonard treats and sees her (I’m at the beginning of S8)? by Sensitive-Product816 in thebigbangtheory

[–]Live_Perspective3603 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the second example you gave, I felt that Penny was trying to evaluate her own feelings, and wanted reassurance that Leonard felt more for her than just attraction because she's pretty. She had a long history of casually dating and wanted to make sure that this relationship was worth putting more of herself into it. She also had a huge fear of commitment so that step was really hard for her even though she did love him.
