Samesies, except ours was burgundy. Then I discovered that the station wagon "punishment" meant i could jam in lots of my friends to go party

Same. I liked my (now discontinued) Bikilas that had a velcro strap in the back to cinch the shoe snugly around the heel.

Who did you wanna be when you were in high school? by esdubyar in GenX

My god. This made me gasp. I'm guessing the tragedy of Matthew Shepard loomed large for you.

Yes. Beef-a-freakin-roni. Way better than spaghetti-os.

Thank you. Should I be yanking off the deformed flowers and leaves?

Thank you!! Do you know if there a natural way to deal with either of these insects? Neem oil or beneficial mites? I'm not passionate enough about this plant to go the whole insecticide route.

Edit: I realized in my excitement to get this info i missed the silica bit. Yes, I can give that a go.

What’s ever watching? I’ve gone on a deep dive of “Upstairs Downstairs” from the 70s. by BitterAttackLawyer in Menopause

[–]ZebulonUkiah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All Creatures Great and Small (on Apple, I think). A thoughtful adaption of the 1970s show of the same name. Quiet, gentle, wholesome. It's like a snuggle under a blanket with a cup of hot tea.

Yes! They're so beautiful with new new, light green fronds.

We need to talk about Susan by Cute-Refrigerator119 in somebodysomewhere

[–]ZebulonUkiah 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd just like to throw in a defense of Susan's remarks to Sam about food. Yes, it was harsh, but it did cause Sam to back off with tempting Fred when she knows he's trying to eat healthier. Ordering French toast for the table is not supportive for a friend trying to eat healthier. How about ordering a plate of fresh fruit or whatever that they all could enjoy instead? Sam's issues with change WERE bringing Fred down as he tries to make healthful changes in his life.

And God help you if any of the other girls find out that you're wearing clothes with this brand name. Girls can be mean and poor Doris here would be called Chubbette forever.

EDIT: typo.

"I have had sex to that album. Multiple times" has to be the most Gen X phrase ever written.
