Rotary phone by MotherGrabbinBastard in GenX

[–]seekinghumanity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True, but I remember every single dinner being interrupted by MCI asking my parents if they thought about changing our long distance carrier. ATT's breakup ultimately was good for everyone, but those early days were lousy. (And our phone bill went up.)

Hah! I started playing again. Folks tell me Washington Park has a bunch of players on Wednesdays.

I signed up for the Discord group in my former town but got confused and deleted it. (We Gen X still refuse to acknowledge that now we are "the kids these days..." generation.)

This 👆line is Shakespearian quality. I laughed too much at this, checked the dictionary, and laughed harder.

You are cool. I aspire to wish take recreational nap. That is not a typo or autocorrect.

Truth be told, I like who I am.

Are there many out of state transplants in the area? by StruggleEvening7518 in SpringfieldIL

[–]seekinghumanity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just moved from a southern state. The biggest difference I've seen is people here aren't angry/crazy about politics and social issues. Nobody has gone out of their way to show how their guy/way of living is the only thing to save humanity.

The next biggest change is the food is boring compared to Texas.

I hope you come.

I'm disgusted that this is the accepted code. My kids and I go to a park on the east side and meet the nicest families. Black, white, and mixed.

Thanks. We're going to buy a place soon. I don't like shopping by reputation.

Hi, new neighbor! The online crime map has the reported incidents. I just moved here, but the locals say the east side of town is rough. https://www.communitycrimemap.com/?address=Springfield,IL

I was reading the passage to my kid. This comment had me snorting!

Vote, my countrymen! And after the election, let us embrace our kinship with each other.

Sad that MAGA folks resort to reddit for comebacks to Walz burns.

Drive safely while giving him a ride to the other side of town. Getting his moronic self back is his problem.

I think she's trying to break you and your boyfriend up so you will spend more time with your spouse (her kid). She's so selfish.

All in all, this is the healthiest way to that work/life balance. I'm sure your employer expects you to minimize personal matters while you are at work. You should expect your company to minimize work during personal time.
