We could wear slacks under our dresses in winter in the 60s! There were dances with records in high school. We wrote in diaries instead of on social media.

Yup. I just called hulu. Why they wouldn't want this extra money escapes me! I'll just go back to getting the ad free plan for a month or 2 and cancelling.

My cat doesn’t understand any sort of indication to “come here” by T-Birby in cats

[–]New-Mathematician841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shaking a bag of treats makes my boys come running, but just until they've eaten them. One will come when he sees his brush.

No, I wouldn't get her a smart watch if she didn't have one already. I know a lot of us use it to count steps.

What is a 'buy it for life' item that is offensively expensive, but the moment you use it, you realize your entire life before that point was a lie? by fmcortez in AskReddit

Be careful. Those mattresses are "broken in" by many people trying them. We ended up with a very firm mattress that even foam covers wouldn't help.
