@dollarrev@_rebecca_la@emilykmay Oh. The one I was thinking about while sitting at the back of the Target parking lot, listening to Sirius XM 80's channel and crying over your smart mouth and takedowns? That narrows it down a little bit but not completely.π
@dollarrev@_rebecca_la@emilykmay ... He wanted the display because it was already assembled and he could take a few key pieces apart for transport but not have to assemble the whole thing himself and the family agrees that this was the most embarrassing dad move ever.
@dollarrev@_rebecca_la@emilykmay Well? Do you remember the time your dad would not stop "checking in" with the manager of Sam's Club until he wore him down and convinced him to sell us that big climbing toy display model for far below its value because it was almost like used since it sat on display but really..
@dollarrev@_rebecca_la@emilykmay Um. Are you one of my kids incognito? Because everything you said, right down to pens borrowed from work, is my husband back in the day! I mean like I'm tempted to quiz you on family facts because I think you grew up in my house.
@grim_prime@DuckieLouise If you saw the giant box of coffee in my motorhome you'd see that relearning appropriate shopping is not easy. And we can't stay out of Sam's or Costco. Old habits. It's two of us and we live in a motorhome, we don't need Costco but we can't quit!
@kween_bees @UpTambourine He is beautiful to my eyes because of who he is. I wish everyone could experience love like this. It transcends everything else.
@kween_bees @UpTambourine I liked my husband when we were young and his lousy pick up lines worked. I loved his dad bod because that flesh was wrapped around the love of my life and I adored every inch of him. Now I love his old Grandpa bod because that aging flesh is still wrapped around my soulmate.
@Limeylizzie I wish I could be that fast with a comeback! I always get flustered and explain myself like it's any of their business what I wear or don't wear on my face. I'm going to try to remember this line and use it.
@katSam93@AngryBlackLady And I LOVED Endless Love, I was a freshman in high school and took that movie to heart. I was looking for my own endless love, a boy who would love me like that. Mercy. But we survived. And no boy ever loved me enough to burn my house down, thank God.
@AngryBlackLady Yep. Except I could not get my hands on it until 7th grade. A friend in home ec class loaned it to me because I could not yet get a copy any other way. It was a lot.
@Allieraine_ @emilykmay@2MuchDigitalSas@LilaGraceRose Exactly. I began to hate him in the mid 80s. There is literally nothing he could do to sway me. His presence flipped me from Rep to Dem, nothing will ever make me vote for him.
@sadie_luck@friedmanadam5 I can name a number of solidly red states with bike lanes, bike paths, and basic infrastructure. (Hell, I've been to red states with rural healthcare. It can be done, I wonder why TN can't do better)
@sadie_luck@friedmanadam5 Bike lanes are infrastructure. For some people in cities, bikes are their main transportation. Delivery people use bikes to make a living. What do you have against using the tax payers money on infrastructure for the folks footing the bill?
