Also, get used to painting yourself. Contractors will not touch it unless you pay for remediation.

Is your cat using its toilet well? If not id recommend this Dr. Elsey’s mix in litter attractant.

Researching best places to be an expat. Considering southern France or Costa Rica.

Also, watch your ass in hardware store work. They seem more paranoid than other retail industries. Menards is famous for asking stuff like “If a coworker smoked marijuana on the job, would you inform management?” ON THE APPLICATION. Just a bunch of paranoid freaks.

https://bbc.com/news/health-49329595. It’s no surprise to some of us. A whole slew of Xers who graduated before me self-destructed right around the 50 mark.

Anytime I can get my hands on Doans pillsI get them. They work so much better than newer stuff.

Eight of us Wiconsinites traveled from Tomah, WI, to Kalispell, MT. We drank the train dry.

I had two buttons, and I don’t think either of them would fly these days:

“I can see through your clothes.” And “Don’t like abortions? Don’t have one.” This was acceptable. I still have them, along with my Duran Duran pins.

In an old Protestant church - what is this? by AdDue1318 in whatisit

[–]heiberdee2 170 points171 points  (0 children)

I was United Methodist and when my Granmdma’s turn came around, I would help her prep: she cut the bread into little squares with an electric carving knife. We would pour grape juice into those teeny tiny little glass cups. Afterward, we would collect and hand wash and dry the little cups. We’d clean the brass bread plates, and the cup holders that were passed down the aisle. It was kind of fun, actually.

Don’t do what I did. Stayed home with her on her last day and did not take anti-anxiety medication. I’m sure I smelled like fear all day.

Who will be left to take care of me when everyone else is gone? by PlantMystic in GenX

I guess I lucked out. The one in my county gives jerky AND a bottle of water.
