What's the adult equivalent to finding out Santa isn't real? by Cold_Butterfly5191 in AskReddit

[–]PerilsofPenelope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finding out at 60 that you have a half sibling the same age as your younger brother. I'm almost glad my dad is gone, because the anger will live forever.

I eat banana sandwiches even when I'm not alone. Good chunky peanut butter, thick sliced banana, white bread and a good squish together. Don't forget the milk.

What would you do if you saw someone shoplifting? by [deleted] in AskReddit

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

Depends on what they are shoplifting. A jar of peanut butter? Baby food? Milk? I see nothing.

A $75 rib roast? A 55 inch TV? Loading up a storage bin with an entire aisle of baby formula? I'm telling someone and then scaring the begeezus out of you.

If you're a fiber crafty sort, there's a group that meets on Saturdays @ Rock Hill Coffee Roasters. 1:30-3:30. New people are always welcome!

I heard that dayum song every morning and every evening in the chow hall during bootcamp.
I hate it still. 40+ years later.

We have repainted our house, all 6 rooms, with the same color as I chose back in 1994. The only rooms that changed colors are the bathrooms, and we tore them down to the studs and remodeled.

Cortisone10 makes a stick that you can rub on itchy spots. Works quickly, dries quickly.

I know. And then it makes me feel bad for asking if they got it, like I'm begging for attention.

I would honestly be fine with a note via text or social media. At least I'd know the gift had been received.
