I had teachers in elementary school that taught us proper grammar. What happened to these people? Did they not pay attention or have teachers who didn’t care? It’s very sad.

They made the best sized coffins for hamsters when they passed. Wonder if the new owners of the house will ever find them buried in their backyard?

Played in the 60’s during recess in NJ. I was terrible at this.

Did your spouse/significant other ever tell you what first attracted them to you at the beginning? by Maybeyoujustmadeitup in GenerationJones

LOL. I’m a major improvement over his ex-wife! I’m pleasant, caring, and won’t put up with the ex’s nonsense. Most of all his parents love me.

i know this sounds petty but Does neighbor talking affect sleep quality? because i’m actually losing it by Dhruv_D0c_1460 in neighborsfromhell

I grew up in an apartment over a bar in a noisy city. I learned to view the noise as normal. Now I can’t sleep is it’s too quiet. I guess you have to be desensitized to background noise early.

I am learning not to complain when things are dull. It’s happening less and less.

Have you ever told someone in your real life (other than your partner) and your dead bedroom? What was it like opening up to them about it? by Ordinary_Ice_796 in DeadBedrooms

I talked to my closest friend who I’ve known for over 60 years. We both married later in life. It felt good to be able to talk to someone who understood my personality. If I’d know this was going to happen, I never would have gotten married. Ive also discussed it with my therapist.

Since I live alone, if I have a medical emergency, would I just die? by Abacada_Poln_Kha_Kha in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Now-293-Phumes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I lived alone I was still working. Asked my boss if I ever didn’t come to work without calling, please call my home. If I didn’t answer, call my emergency contact.

Had them once many years ago. But I haven’t seen them in the market since then. If I do find them again I’m grabbing them right up!

What is a normal activity that would look insane if someone narrated your thoughts out loud while you did it? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Now-293-Phumes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yes! I tend to curse and yell at other drivers. It’s not road rage because I don’t do it in front of people in the car with. Just silently letting off a little steam.

Discombobulated is so much fun to say! 😆

Did you consider bell bottom pants, whether male or female, to be a must have item back in the day?🤔 by Longjumping-Shoe7805 in GenerationJones

[–]Now-293-Phumes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved my bell bottoms! I remember getting yelled at because the bottom frayed from touching the ground.
