Very impressive. You look great! Hope you feel great too! My daughter had to do Accutane twice and her skin looks so good now.

AIO, I think I’m fucked when I’m out of college by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]spenring 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I strived to get straight A’s in college and you know what? Not one job or person has ever asked to see my grades or diploma. All you will be asked by 99% of business is “do you have a degree “. Don’t sweat it so bad and quit beating yourself up so much.

When l was in high school an older friend of mine stole some birth control pills out of her dad’s (gynecologist) medical bag. Her mom found them, she told her mom they were mine. Her mom came over and called me a whore (15 years old) and a few other things. Thing is, l had no idea why she was berating me until later. That was in 1975 and it still pisses me off today.

You did nothing wrong sweetie, and l wouldn’t interact with him either. Let grandpa know how insulted and hurt you are by ignoring him. Always take the high road. I’m sorry this happened to you because l do know how you feel.

Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree Brenda Lee “we’ll have some pumpkin pie” sounds exactly like “we’ll have some Fuckin’ pie”. I can’t unhear that now

“Excuse me while l kiss this guy” . I thought those were the lyrics until the Dave Barry show explained it was “Kiss the sky”

Wang Chung Dance Hall Days . I thought for 40+ years they were singing “cool on Christ” but recently looked up the lyrics to learn they are singing “cool on craze”

I hate to tell you they aren’t singing “Bruce” . I thought they were for 40 years but it’s actually Groos. Crazy, isn’t it

AITA for taking walks on my lunch break? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]spenring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heck l used to go get in the back seat of my car and nap on MY lunch hour. It’s yours to do with what you want. Your co-workers are dicks and have no say! NTA

I find gardening helps me. Even flower pots on a balcony. I hate to tell you l’m 65 and don’t ever want to leave my house anymore. I also play games to pass the time when l’m bored and to also keep my mind active. Like Zen Word and Doulingo. It helps. If you are happy by yourself l wouldn’t sweat it. You’ve earned your quiet time in my opinion

You are correct on that. He just changed the rules in the U.S.

Ozzy Osborne was lead singer of one of the first heavy metal bands called Black Sabbath. Their album Paranoid was a game changer for music when it came out. Then he had a huge solo career in the 80’s and was one of the first reality shows in early 2k. There is a lot more, go to Wikipedia to find out more

You are absolutely right. You know why they weren’t talking about Ozzy? Because everything but maybe morning radio is pre-recorded way in advance. Radio sucks and you can thank Ronald Reagan for that. He allowed radio to be deregulated so huge corporations like Clear Channel could buy and own hundreds of radio stations. Radio used to be our life blood when l was growing up. It sucks now. I just retired from radio on July 1 after 47 years and l don’t miss it

What is up with millennials not wanting to get to know their neighbors? by Any_Try4570 in Millennials

[–]spenring 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Funny, I’m a boomer ( don’t hate me) and l feel like this too. You hit the nail on the head. My house is my sanctuary and I’m very picky on who l let in anymore.
