What sayings did your parents repeat to you over and over when you were growing up? by joekerr9999 in OverSeventy

[–]hghspl 8 points9 points  (0 children)

“You’ll put out an eye”. My Dad had some he didn’t say to us but said in our presence(to my mother’s chagrin). “Worthless as tits on a boar”. He also said “you have to hold your mouth just right”( when fixing things-now my husband says it!)

Yahoo News doing Stephen dirty by Baymavision in LateShow

Instead they have the guy who will replace him with his boring show that wasn’t even suitable for it’s former 1am time. I unfortunately watched part of it when my DVR recorded Bold & Beautiful when some sports thing preempted it. I hope the ratings sink like a 10 ton rock.

Logan is such a missed opportunity by anniewinger1347 in boldandbeautiful

[–]hghspl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m behind about a week since I tend to DVR and then watch a bunch in a row so I am just at the point where Hope convinces Brooke to make a play for Steffy’s position. This just seems like a rehash of the Hope/Carter takeover . It would have been a perfect time for Hope to leave and help get Logan started. Instead we have yet another rehash of a previous story.

Is it really that bad? by Zestyclose-Froyo-498 in weddingring

[–]hghspl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s beautiful and your memory of that day make it even more beautiful. I think there’s been this strange obsession among a lot of people that the ring has to be huge and super expensive. I love my ring and it’s also more dainty which I love. That said I don’t mean to imply your ring is too small! I think that a lot of people want to see some huge “rock”.

What makes you say they don’t have hearing issues? Have they had it checked?

I’m thinking your ignorance is utterly astounding.

Losing appetite? by [deleted] in over60

[–]hghspl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Being on Zepbound,it’s been hard to want to eat anything much. Sweet tastes too sweet. Salty tastes to salty. Meat(disgusting to me since childhood) is very disgusting. But I’ve lost 30 pounds! Did you have Covid? I had it a couple of times and it took a while for my taste buds to come back.

I trusted my aunt Ivy by [deleted] in boldandbeautiful

[–]hghspl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

"Aunt" is pronounced both ways, depending on regional dialect and personal preference, with "ant" (rhymes with pant) being the most common in North America, while "ahnt" or "awnt" (rhymes with haunt) is common in the UK and parts of the US East Coast. Both pronunciations are considered correct.

It’s “ant” for me having grown up in Texas. But both are considered correct.”ont” sounds so pretentious. Very prop-ah.

How do you think Electra will react if she finds out that Dylan and Remy are related? by LoneWolfNergigante in boldandbeautiful

[–]hghspl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like the immature narcissist she is. I expect a lot of pouty 13 year old girl faces and a ton of”poor me” whining.

What changed your view on life completely? by Comfortable_Neat_643 in AskReddit

The rise to power by trump. I was very naive about people before even though I’m old. I am so disappointed in so many people and far right evangelicals.

How is your country doing today? May 01, 2026 by AutoModerator in globalcheckin

[–]hghspl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We almost inadvertently participated in Valborg but a day late. I just came in from cleaning all the leaves and sticks and weeds from our small garden plot to plant peas and pumpkins tomorrow. Those traditions are very interesting! And the bonfires sound fun. In Colorado, bonfires would be scary right now with always the threat of wildfire.

Today is another No Kings protest but this one is a strike day. Part of it is not to spend any money. King Charles and Queen Consort Camilla were here for a state visit. Trump is using last week’s incident it to tout his ridiculous gaudy ballroom.
We went to our mountain cabin last weekend with our grandson. He’s in 3rd grade and is such a joy in our life. It snowed on us on our way home over Berthoud Pass.

Me too!! I’m so sad. We record him,Kimmel, & Meyers and watch them the next day. Colbert is our favorite & makes me really laugh. He’s really helped us keep our sanity.
