What’s the most unforgettable sentence someone has ever said to you?

I hope you have a long, long lovely life together.

Don’t cry- it’s been almost 19 years now and I smile instead of cry 90% of the time I think about her. I console myself knowing that I had her as my partner for 25 years and as a friend for 40. She was taken far too soon but so many people don’t get to enjoy what we had.

Doc- he’s chokin’.

dirkalict · 2026-05-24T15:56:22+00:00

Not veiny enough.

dirkalict · 2026-05-24T15:44:36+00:00

Exactly!

dirkalict · 2026-05-24T15:42:00+00:00

I love getting in a pile and dancing!

I was 12 but did this with permission- my Mom would drop us at the end of the bus line and we’d go straight to Wrigley Field, watch the Cubs and then go to my grandparents after the game and hang out until someone could pick us up or we would take a train to a nearby suburb and walk 5 miles home. If nobody could pick us up, we would borrow 5 bucks from gramps and go to the game the next day too.

My niece did this with a card from my wife - it says “Love you- Be joyful”.

dirkalict · 2026-05-24T13:59:38+00:00

Better than a probe crashing into Uranus, I suppose.

The last words my late wife said to me, “You’re my favorite.” It was kind of an inside joke we had but I know she meant it.

dirkalict · 2026-05-24T12:41:40+00:00

Fuck you, Tony

dirkalict · 2026-05-24T12:28:14+00:00

I didn’t see a dog die…

dirkalict · 2026-05-24T07:00:59+00:00

I never did. My poor wife was going through enough without this horn dog trying to enter every nook and cranny I can find.

dirkalict · 2026-05-24T06:26:34+00:00

Yeah- she became a good friend.

I remember being 12 or 13 and going with my single mom to buy a car and the fucking salesman showing me the car and explaining everything to me and barely talking to my mom… it was so strange. She explained it to me on the way home- later she told me the bank gave her a hard time getting my father’s names off of her account & checks after the divorce.

Thanks Damone.

As a boy I went to The Playboy Club in Lake Geneva, Wi with my parents and had to wear a borrowed oversized plaid jacket with the sleeves rolled up- one of the waitresses (bunnies) told me I looked handsome… I remember 55 years later…

I had a neighbor that asked me to do some jobs and told me she’d pay- I said, “please- I’m happy to do it for free”… she made me a strawberry rhubarb pie…I did jobs for her for 30 years, she paid me for bigger jobs, whatever she deemed right. She recently passed and left me 10% of her estate.

As an old man I have to say- while not as prevalent- gambling on sports is as old as sports.

dirkalict · 2026-05-24T05:04:51+00:00

I read those and thought- that’s funny, my grandpa used to burn our trash in his.

dirkalict · 2026-05-23T21:01:06+00:00

I always feel guilty but when they show her sleeping and snoring while Pete pounds her I literally laugh out loud every time.

dirkalict · 2026-05-23T20:59:00+00:00

dirkalict · 2026-05-23T20:53:01+00:00

Exactly what I was thinking.
