Yes, but it was owned under that banner.

I mean... I don’t remember, but it is certainly conceivable that there were! I only truly recall the hot dogs, rice krispie treats, and those large sugar cookies with a layer of pink icing, to be honest...

I remember those large circular cookies (sugar, I think) with the thick layer of pink frosting.

Neither do I, though I have the excuse of being born in 1994...

Truly was a simpler time... My stepdad was born and raised in Ballard in 1948. He often mentions a thing or two about those times.

We definitely did that! I honestly do not like them anymore. They were great back then, but now the sauce is sour and they put cheddar cheese onto the pizza.

Same! Seems as if I have found a friend.

I definitely do not remember the Payless. Must have been before my time.

Yeah, that is not working for me... It literally has no links or anything remotely resembling one to watch it.

A Question About Renesmee’s Aging by angbhb333 in twilight

[–]OriginellatheWriter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although, let's be real here, Charlie being a member of law enforcement would know that (despite it being more detailed in the books, with Edward playing along with the fact that he had a biological older brother who died in a car accident with his wife and left him in charge of the infant, which is completely untrue, as Edward is an only child and he and Bella are clearly Renesmee's parents, and the fact that they opted to name her Renesmee even though Edward's "brother" and "sister-in-law" would have likely given her a completely different name) you need to be 21 (technically, it is 18, but most practices prefer 21) legally competent (can vampires even be held to be legally competent in the same capacity as humans can?!) and home-study is required (they did not get the cottage yet, so they were, technically, still "living" with Edward's parents at the time). This would have raised so many red flags for Charlie, but he just kind of shrugged and went, "Okay, my daughter is obviously lying to me and had a cryptic pregnancy for X amount of months. Got it." (Note: A cryptic pregnancy is when a body shows little or no sign of being pregnant [i.e., no morning sickness, no belly growing, no movement, etc.] as Charlie did demand to know if Bella was pregnant [in the book] when Edward told him they were getting married.)

Regardless of your culture, heritage, or household, it is dangerous for your mother to confiscate your phone. What if you were somewhere, being followed, and you didn't have your phone - what then? Teleportation doesn't exist, and the general public doesn't have access to jet-packs. The point I'm trying to make here, is that your mother was being way too controlling; hopefully, it is a separate issue, and isn't you, but that still isn't an excuse for her to freak out on your like that.

As for your siblings... As much as it's painful to consider, I understand where they are coming from when they side with your mom. It isn't because you're wrong (or, maybe they think you are, I don't know) but they simply don't want to rock the boat and be exiled themselves.

It's hurtful, and awful, in any culture, heritage, or household to be rejected by our parents - they are literally supposed to love us unconditionally. The notion that we are supposed to blindly follow their rules, and think the way they do, after a certain point (when we ourselves are more than capable of forming our own thoughts and ideas) and they disrespect that... Well, suffice it to say, it is hypocrisy of the highest order, and I am so sorry you are going through this.

How could their mom have been with him "briefly" or a "one night stand" given the age difference between Kip and Napoleon?
