You can leave the room. If an adult wants to binge, they should be able to.

Help me understand why you think people who don't choose college should pay for those who do.
November 17, 2025 at 3:21 AM
Help me out here. Why should people who don't go to college get stuck with the bill for those who do? A high school friend of my son got a Bachelor's degree in...philosophy. You really wanna fund that?

Hang in there. *hugs*

I *love* possoms.

People are still breeding like rabbits. ZPG!

Oh, please! What about personal responsibility? Minimum wage in Seattle is $20.76 because voters demanded it. Why don't those poor people in poor red states stop electing people who keep their minimum wage at $7.25?

Nonsense.

This reminds me of people who buy bottled water. Don't they have a faucet at home? When I moved into wooded acreage on Puget Sound, my younger brother commented, "Ugh. You can't even walk for a cup of coffee." Well, I can walk to my kitchen.

It's ok, you can refer to her as "she."

What in the world were you reading? Nothing by L. Frank Baum. Ozma was hidden by being disguised as a boy. Nothing trans about it. As a former librarian, I *never* endorse anything which steals from the original material.

Yes! Fine and incarcerate those who hire illegals. It's cheaper and certainly more humane than what is currently going on. (Many people support unions. Those same people also support illegals who work under the table. And they don't even see their hypocrisy.)

It *is* woke. For no reason. Most people don't care; do not at all care about someone else's sexuality. But to needlessly point out that someone is gay, is just a way to say, "Hey, look at us! We're inclusionary! Aren't we cool?!"

The issue for many is *illegal* immigration. My father followed the rules. He filled out the forms, waited his turn & came in legally. My daughter worked in a Thai camp for Karen refugees. They are following the rules, waiting their turn, (for years,) because they respect the USA. Illegals don't.

Most likely he'll need a map.

I feel that way about my dental hygienist. But she doesn't need to have her name on a theater screen.

I think they should all get a participation sticker for showing up and doing their job. And a little trophy. And a certificate.
November 16, 2025 at 4:34 PM
You do you. I do not care to know who punched the little holes along the edge of the film. Or who designed my trunk's latch. Or chose the finish on my coffee table. Is this just "everyone gets a trophy" for grown-ups?
November 16, 2025 at 4:32 PM
I want a list of credits for *everything*! Who designed my mailbox? Who decided on aluminum with black paint? Genius! And my coffee cup. Who designed it to have the handle on the side like that? Their mom must be so proud. I want a list of credits for traffic signs. Red paint or yellow? Brilliant!

Tabbies are the best.

And over population isn't helping. ZPG!

I'm down on the Key Peninsula. I *love* this rain after several years of drought. I may feel differently by mid January.

For many people on this thread, they think it does. You have to have sympathy for their old science teachers.
November 16, 2025 at 4:14 PM
But, but... It's warm (or cold,) at their own personal house! Quit being so sciencey!
