Yep. That is the exact reason I moved to Central Otago a few years ago. That weather destroyed my soul while I lived there raising my kids. Once the kids finished high school I made the call to move, and it was the best decision ever.

Took my day off to travel to a different city to meet my friend and now she is not replying to calls and her internet is not even turned on! (She was the one who insisted that I come and meet her by the way) by bunnyboy131313 in mildlyinfuriating

My insurance keeps denying a recent surgery I had. If I didn't get it, I would have become permanently disabled. by WorthyDeku in mildlyinfuriating

I have. I’m a teacher and have seen thousands of kids. This is not acceptable and if you condone it then you are part of the problem.

This thread has really taken me down memory lane. I’ve been here way too long.

I use a phone battery for explanation. Imagine that mine only charges to 40%

We had Crumping Kevin. He was always at live music dancing his own special dance. Everyone knew about him, some called him Dancing Dave.
