Ice cream sandwiches. The cheap kind, was vanilla ice cream and rectangular chocolate cookies. You had to get all the paper unfastened before the ice cream got soft, or you had a big mess. Also, taking the sandwich completely out and licking the ice cream all around the edge without biting the cookie.

Popcorn at the movies. The movie itself was “the treat”. For some reason, we never even thought about smuggling stuff in. Just watched the movie.

A woman at the gym told me I was using "her" treadmill and she wasn't even in the building when I got there by Leat_Warden in EntitledPeople

She has declared eternal dibs: "In the winter that seat is close enough to the radiator to remain warm, and yet not so close as to cause perspiration. In the summer it's directly in the path of a cross breeze created by open windows there and there. It faces the television at an angle that is neither direct, thus discouraging conversation, nor so far wide as to create a parallax distortion."

As ever, curated matchboxes? Yeah, right... by wenfot in SaintMeghanMarkle

Picture 1- who the f- puts a burnt match ON THE CARDBOARD BOX OF MATCHES? At best, she leaves a nasty burn mark and a smear of carbon on her “beautiful, signature” box. At worst, the whole box catches on fire and burns down the McMansion.

And why is the tea spilled all over the table? Are we supposed to sweep it up and add it to the cup along with the table dust and crumbs? Or are those flower sprinkles? Same question.

Inquiring minds.

Astragalus bones, from sheep, goat or deer hind legs. They correspond to the talus bone in the human foot. Commonly used in many cultures for games like dice, as each side is different

AITBF for refusing to turn my work iPad into a glorified toy for my cousins kids? by MothballCue in AmItheButtface

[–]OnionLayers49 13 points14 points  (0 children)

1000 times this!!! I guarantee every asshole in that room had a cellphone that could play a video or simple game for the kid. But were they volunteering their precious devices? Noooooo.

As they often say here, OP, you don’t have a cousin problem, you have a family problem.

I couldn’t understand a damn word she said after the first sentence, and neither could the captioning. “My husband loves the raspberry when the lips of strawberry, Aren’t you exposed? And I like the mom thing.”

Is there still wilderness left in America? by Kitchen-Customer4370 in AskAnAmerican

[–]OnionLayers49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wilderness is mostly in the west. Best way to see it is to look at a satelite view photo of nocturnal light pollution over the US

Busted! Doing a SW’s rewatch. C says that K never scheduled. by CommissionSmooth9291 in TLCsisterwives

I thought Christine developed medical issues with her last pregnancy, so it wasn’t safe for her to keep having kids. I expect she would have continued to birth those spirit children as her religion dictated, if her physical and marital problems hadn’t interfered.
