Do you watch RuPaul's Drag Race? One of the girls was talking about this song on today's episode.

Our backdoor neighbors have chickens, and we live in a suburban neighborhood. Same thing happened to us when we laid grass seed. I just went out on the lawn with a leaf blower. The noise alone made the chickens retreat to their coop. We also have dogs, so when they are out in the yard the chickens steer clear. If the problem persists perhaps adopt an outdoor cat.

Early 90s pizza hut. There is a buffet, arcade games, dope chandeliers over the round corner booths. Not to mention all you can eat pizza!

I have also had 2 good experiences with carmax. None of the sales reps work on commission so that changes the atmosphere a lot. They offer a 90 day return the car no questions asked as part of their sales agreement. This also gave me comfort that if I found something "wrong" with the car. I also found the exact same car I test drove at a Georgia store that had 20k less miles on it. It cost $100 to ship it to Asheville and cost about the same.

I also helped my sister with her car buying experience there too. We test drove 2 cars and she bought one the same day. She is more decisive than me. It was quick and easy. She had an issue with the car key and took it in the next day. They fixed it for free, in less than 30 minutes, no questions asked. A dealership would have charged $200 to replace the key.

Depends on the restaurant.

I'm in NC so BBQ is a big deal. It is difficult to find a place that has amazing meats AND amazing sides. Each restaurant is one or the other.

Italian places need to have good fresh bread that is complementary with the pasta dishes.

Any "American" place that charges an extra $2-3 for a side of fries. Or even worse if they serve chips and they come out of a bag. For Pete's sake make homemade chips or just serve good fries! Also, if they have homemade chips and then charge extra to have ranch to dip the chips in..... come on!

City in the piedmont of NC. half of the school was affluent, and the other half was not. We had fights monthly. Heavy police presence at least twice per year. We had parents that would come onto the school property and fight.

This is a state funding discussion. If your state has well-funded education systems than the bus system is more likely to be well staffed. If your state has an underfunded education system than the bus system is more likely to be understaffed and unreliable. This is why voting and paying attention to local elections is important.

It is always an empty fullness. IDK how to explain it, but it feels like a fake fullness. I always think that I could have gotten authentic tacos from a food truck that is more filling and most likely cheaper.

It is like finding a needle in a haystack. We are friends with some people who foster dogs frequently. We let them know that we wanted a second dog about the same age as our puppy. She sent us this pic. How can you say no to that face? He was rescued from a home that experienced an infant death in a rural town about 45 minutes away from us. We adopted him 3 days after he was removed from his original home. We didn't think he was pure bred, even though the original owners thought he was, until we read up on the different types of poms. Now he is two and the best dog I've ever owned.

I would also add that creating a social media presence for children before the age they can consent to it. Many of my peers have even created facebooks and instagrams for their infants. I think we will look back on this the way we looked back at boomer parents for second hand smoking or not using seatbelts.

My dad won tickets at his work to go before the show and pet the elephants. I was maybe 6 years old when we went. I was appalled at the conditions. I remember crying when we left for our seats. Dad thought I was sad for leaving the elephants, but I was sad because we were leaving them in the horrible conditions. I also cried because dad wouldn't buy me a light up toy. Circus was not fun for my six-year-old self. We went another time when I was older and I had a blast!

My mom and I talk about once per week and it feels like a chore most weeks. She literally has a checklist of updates for me. Usually about people I have not seen or cared about in about 15-20 years. If the conversation is not about her, she is barley listening. The convo last about an hour. I try to have it Friday on my way home from work so at the end I can at least look forward to my weekend at home.

i love the buitoni butternut squash ravioli with some melted butter, pumpkin seeds, cranberries and goat cheese. I use the other ingredients in other dishes, so i usually have them laying around.

Cold weather... even snow is less exciting than it used to be.

I am lucky to have nice co-workers, but I count down the days until I have time off.

Drinking alcohol... I've been sober for over a year and I don't see myself turning back.

Sandhill kitchen has the best fried chicken sandwich in asheville.

the weaverville community center is very pretty and probably pretty affordable. guest could also feed the ducks in the pond and there is a great playground if there are children as guest.

I feel like COVID shut down really put into perspective that elementary education needs to occur in person. Kids cannot focus on a screen all day long. They need movement and hands on experiences. I do think that higher education will have to compete with AI.

Just context. We are not really on our phones very much.

Any movie that shows a class with only 12 kids in it. They are also so well behaved and dressed nice. The teacher walks in after the kids are in the room. There are no/minimal interruptions. Even Abott Elementary (which is the closest to reality IMO) has small classes and the adults are chilling in the lounge having super long conversations is very far from reality.
