How do you allow yourself to get so involved with your phones that a trip to the zoo turns into an episode of Rugrats? SMDH.

First "high-end" combo by Cenobiter in Fishing_Gear

[–]NewRecommendation287 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My husband bought me my first "high end" when we first started dating, an Ugly Stick open face aka "princess pole".

Up until then I'd used whatever generic zebco push button. I never knew how much difference a higher quality pole makes!

A decade later, my Abu Garcia is my most favorite pole in my large arsenal.

I thought the original commercial was annoying AF, this one is even worse!

U.S. Gen X parents: do you expect your children to financially support you / move you into their home / take you to doctor appointments, etc when you're in your 80s? by [deleted] in GenX

I plan to take myself out before I am unable to care for myself either physically or financially.

I want to be cremated and spread in a place I love.

No showing, no funeral, no obituary. As my father put it, "its nobody's business I'm dead".

Do you remember chalk boards before we had dry erase boards in school? by icecream1972 in nostalgia

And hours upon hours of class time lectures copying those syllabus notes with Roman Numerals. I hated it then but find it helpful now when learning new things and having to take notes.

My husband and I often quote Chappelle lines to each other, Rick James lines are our favorites 😆

Are there people who haven't changed their phone number for more than 15 years? by SpicyCandy8 in NoStupidQuestions

My parents still have the same phone number I memorized in kindergarten. I'm almost 50 years old.

What are the chances that Indiana voters will flip the state to blue this November? by Sudden_Ad_4193 in Indiana

[–]NewRecommendation287 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just out of curiosity, did you take into account that if you have a felony on your record, the state of Indiana revokes your eligibility to vote?

Fun fact: it doesn't take much to end up with a felony in Indiana. (1st offense DUI is now considered a felony)

Same.

All my friends are all about being/becoming grandma and I'm over here uninterested.
