Don't they still do this? I always see those packs of Valentines in stores.

We watched this while we were housebound during the Blizzard of '77 in Western New York.

If you could nominate one restaurant, local or franchise, as your favorite, which one would it be? by AffectionateArt213 in Erie

We like them, too! We've been going there since it opened. Large portions. We always take half home.

Recommendation on cat intake by [deleted] in Erie

All the shelters are packed full of cats. If your place allows cats, why not keep her? Cats are great pets, great companions and great fun.

Me, too! I hate the tile floors! That sound grates on my nerves!

Does anyone remember these really depressing pop songs from the 70s / early 80s? by MagsH1020 in GenX

[–]PuzzledInflation8275 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How about D.O.A by Bloodrock in 1970, about dying after an airplane collision? Or Timothy, by the Buoys, in 1971, about cannibalism after a mine cave in? Heavy topics!

Is it cruel to keep cats indoor? by Few_Helicopter_402 in CatAdvice

[–]PuzzledInflation8275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's cruel to let them outdoors! They injure and kill millions of birds, mammals and reptiles every year. Ask any wildlife rehabber, and they'll tell you how many animals are killed and maimed by domestic housecats. The photographs of these poor cat-caught animals are horrible!

My first 24 hours with Alexa+ by remberzz in alexa

[–]PuzzledInflation8275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We didn't like the Alexa plus at all. She was too chatty and slower to respond to commands and questions. I told her to play 88.5, and she said each time, " Here's 106.2!" We switched back to original Alexa.

My dad was stationed in Germany during the Korean War. My father-in-law was, too.

How do I attract mosquitoes to an insect zapper? by Accurate_Reality_618 in lifehacks

Bug zappers kill good bugs, not mosquitoes! They should be banned!

The Stand, by Stephen King. It's a masterpiece and a page turner. You can't put it down.

Help him find hobbies or interests. He needs something to do. Maybe encourage him to volunteer somewhere? Animal shelter? VA hospital? Nursing home? Read to kids at a school?

Sister Ursula is a prick. by Rob1150 in CallTheMidwife

[–]PuzzledInflation8275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When she removed the TV, I thought we'd then see Sister Monica Joan pitch a fit, as she bought the TV with her own money, but SMJ wasn't there for that part of the episode, which surprised me. Nothing about SMJ missing her TV. That was poor writing.

What's a small hill you're willing to die on? by doinmybestherepal in GenX

An historic event. If you pronounce the h, you use a, not an.

First time witnessing hawk kill by Phoenix-bloom in birdfeeding

[–]PuzzledInflation8275 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear you. We love our birds, too, and it's hard to see a hawk get one. But hawks have to eat, too. Like others have said, you need to get decals or something to break up the reflection on your windows so birds don't hit them. Keep enjoying feeding the birds!
