White nationalist/supremacist does seem a convenient label. if I, as an experiment, wore a 'MAGA' cap about town for a day I wonder how long before the label applied to me. I live in an area highly populated by First Nations (Native American) and work with them directly in my job. I can imagine...

LOVE this^^^^^ (until it happens to me :) )

Well, considering two members of Megadeth are Christians and the lead singer of Slayer is Catholic, maybe we need to re-examine our biases. Meanwhile, the lyricist for one of the most successful bands in the world (Rush) uses his lyrics as an Atheist platform.

There's one in town here that's excellent. I've only been once, but it attracts a good crowd

Okay, may be fair, but how's about a bunch of bears ripping kids to shreds for laughing at a temperamental bald guy?

*Disclaimer - tread lightly with anything else from them

Oh, wait a minute! Waiting for my daughter. To get home from jury duty, the judge dismissed everyone because she's bringing me Thai food for lunch! Yum. :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: (Maybe I am bored...) How was the Thai food anyway?

You have to admit that was creative :)

Let's play "Fun With Grammar"! Waiting for my daughter to get home from jury duty. The judge dismissed everyone because she's bringing me Thai food for lunch! Yum. Question - Who's bringing home the Thai food in the re-arranged sentence? Better yet: Waiting for my daughter to get home from...

I typically stand on escalators, but will stand on the right, knowing that there will most likely be someone who will want to save that extra second by walking. I think it's just good etiquette. With moving sidewalks the directions are usually pretty clear - stand on the right, walk on the left...

For sure. At times, though, I wonder "Come on, God, really...?" And the answer comes "where were you when..." and I shut up and take it :D

This has always been on my mind. For years. I'm determined to have it

Had a chance to meet the lady renting the place. She has three kids, not two, so has her hands full. She's aware of the noise and was apologetic. She seems pretty reasonable and seems like she'll be a good neighbor overall. It's a period of adjustment for her kids, too, as she said they're...

For sure I'd want to go the route of some sort of soundproofing if anything, and leave that to the landlord. The residential tenancy act stipulates that each tenant adhere to the principle of "quiet enjoyment" of their property - essentially the right to a peaceful environment for self and...

I might have shared before that I live in an above ground basement suite in a decent area of town - outside the city center, good location, nice environment. My rent is below the market for other suites of this type and I have use of an outside patio area. It's a good place. The family that...

I don't know that I'd be too worried about them swallowing bits of fluff or foam - good that you found it though. Just watch them for any behavior that seems 'off' or if they're not eating, etc. Maybe be proactive and just leave the bones within reach for them and let the owners know why - I'm...

But I know they go to something, and if I throw them out then I'll find that 'something', and then what?? :D

Oh, yeah, that's invisible and ignored. :D

I recently did a clean-up of some of my wardrobe. I found a number of things that didn't fit as well as a couple of jackets that i really didn't need since I have newer ones that I'll wear instead. With my job we do drop-in's (or did when it was colder) at some warming shelters, so I gave most...

Well, obviously. If confidence and self-esteem (self-worth, actually, is more valuable) is lacking, what would be a suggestion to build those up? And how would you respond to those who might think that fighting back at times may be a necessary evil? I think of 'Ralphie' in "A Christmas Story" as...
