The sun sucks, being forced to shower like every 4 hours just to not feeling sweaty, the fucking mosquitoes, the fact you can’t wear anything that you want anymore due the heat, the people outside… The fucking beach. I try to avoid it… The fucking sand, not a fan of it. Is scratchy, harsh, annoying and it infiltrates in...
Gift them a video game console. When I was young we must have drove all the neighbors nuts, running across their yards playing sports. My neighborhood now has kids but it’s nice and quiet. Thank you Playstation and Xbox
I did this exact thing when visiting Europe on a $50 a day budget (early 90’s). I’m admittedly a coward when it comes to trying new foods and didn’t want to pay for something I didn’t like. Rarely do I eat McDonald’s here in the US
It happens. Half the time people get bummed, the other half they are OK with it and will tell you they have a hard time remembering names too. I am in the latter group. When I forget a name and the person is obviously upset I’ll tell them “let me tell you something few people beside my wife know about me, I have this social anxiety that yadayadayada…”. This usually smooths things out as I’ve shown a vulnerable side and nice people sympathize with that. If they don’t fuck em
I googled Tisza mayfly and the images i see are very similar but my picture was taken in the US. My apologies I should have mentioned that in the original post. Also this mayfly isn’t that large, maybe an inch/2.5cm
The irony in all of this is that if he had just paid her out of his own pocket it wouldn’t have been an issue. Like they say the cover up is worse than the crime or noncrime in this case. Also ironic is he didn’t have to cover it up as the evangelicals don’t seem to care he cheated on his wife with a porn star. A perfect example of why we don’t need morality police telling us how to live
A small $25,000 house with a 13% mortgage rate. Driving there in her family car (one car shared by the whole family) that get 9 gpm and turns into a pile of rust by the time it gets to 80,000 miles. Oh and unemployment was 7.5% and minimum wage was $3.10 if you could even find a job
Not trying to pull a gotcha just pointing out there’s a lot of apples and oranges at play here. If you think life was a breeze back then you’re sadly mistaken.
If you look at my original post I provided actual facts that I double checked before posting not anecdotal information. People downvote but haven’t tried to refute. They look for validation not information on the internet. There are good jobs out there now needing to be filled. Trust me the 70’s thru the 80’s were hard times, I lived through them.
Gamers like to make it sound like $70 is a new thing today for video games. When, I've seen adverts of games back in late 90s and early 90s that were priced $70. It's always been around so I find it ridiculous that so many of them complain that the pricing is too high when, it's been a thing....
I can do the same by cupping my hand in my armpit then jerking my arm down like a chicken wing real fast. Is this still a thing? I haven’t been a kid since the 70’s
Summer is the worst season of the year, isn't?

Always looking for new food ideas.
Do people actually get upset if you forget their name?
If so, does that mean people actually remember a persons name & face after only one encounter?!...

What do people today act like is new, when it's already have been a thing or already been around?
