    We are all done shopping, have lunches for the week, have new clothes and shoes and socks and sundries all laid out for getting dressed in the morning, have 24 glue sticks and hand sanitizer and kleenex and hand soap and boxes upon boxes of crayons and pencils, you all remember this don't you? All we need now is a small miracle to happen, all of us fall asleep instantly at 9 pm and magically awaken at 6 am and NOT fight over the bathroom.

    What are the odds?
    Sooooo glad those days are over for me! :2cool:

    I guess I don't have to worry about what I post and if it offends someone. Or worry about being too outrageous. I am basically a very unimaginative, very boring person who worries about stepping over the line or hurting someone's feelings. I kinda like it that way. And I obviously don't know what funny is because I did not find that funny.

    The odds are slim and none, and I'm pretty sure I saw Slim leaving town.

    Sorry Shari! I guess it's not for everyone. And you're not boring, you've layed down some funnies yourself!

    There's been a lot of guffaw about starbuck's lately, this guy just happened to take it over the top. I like dry, sarcastic humor (in my world anything is up for grabs, so...).

    My humor is quite dry and sarcastic most of the time. I've been called a smart azz more than once, but I say it's better than being a dumb azz. I got a kick out of the responses, too.

    When I was young and broke, I would make what I would fondly call Slop. Saute an onion, brown up some ground beef, drain real, real good, throw in some mushrooms if I had them, make mashed potatoes, heat up some peas or corn, make a gravy with one of those packets. Pile up the mashed pototoes on a plate, ladle over the ground beef/whatever stuff in gravy and put a pile of peas or corn on the plate. Quick, easy, cheap. Ate that stuff on and off for years. Tried it again a few months ago. Even with all the draining of the ground beef, it still looked and tasted super greasy and I threw the rest of it out. Guess some things don't stand up to the test of time. Not as good as I remembered.

    This is us--except mine will open the fridge and see nothing. So I still have to cook/prepare something but he's usually OK with "whatever" (as long as it has ground beef in it, lol).

    Oh, I am sorry. I think maybe last night made up for it, though. Minus the White Russians. I enjoyed the first one, but could not even get close to finishing the second one. I am a lightweight on that front. Maybe next year or two I will have another one.


    I was stuck with you then, too. But I was at work and couldn't participate. :)

    Now that one I think is a riot. I love it. I guess I just thought the Starbucks one was over the top and in poor taste. But that is fuddie duddie me.

    This is another one that had me falling out of my chair. They were so funny I couldn't even bring myself to post in it, but I read every post over several days. Cigarette Newbie

    Me too...usually by people who don't take me too seriously, either. I would edit my comment that anything is on the table as far as humor goes. I DON'T consider making fun of REAL people, or hurting animals for fun (even if it's animals hurting other animals), funny at all.

    Me neither! I don't like hurting people's feelings, and I don't intentionally do it. I try to be respectful but sometimes people have hot buttons in places you wouldn't expect, for whatever reason. And I hope that when I acknowledge that I've done that and apologize that it's understood that I didn't mean to be hurtful.

    I have a few of those too. That Slop sounded good at the beginning but after the peas or corn and gravy it would have been too much for me too.

    Mine thinks he can cook. We watch too much of Food Network and Chopped. He is a master when it comes to the grill, but stick him in the kitchen and I am hiding around the corner with the car keys in one hand (for the trip to the ER when he cuts off a finger) and the fire exstinguisher in the other hand, and I am in full hazmat gear.


    If mine doesn't see something he can nuke quickly, then we "don't have anything in the house to eat". Gaaahhh....men!

    Me too. I actually used to post a lot of humorous stuff - but once I became a mod people took it seriously and everything I said was taken wrong. So I pretty much gave up posting much.

    I find mothers, especially ones with young children, are either stricken with eternal optimism or are quite insane.

    Hey everyone! We went to Sweet Frog and they have made my oldest child's day, no the whole year. There is this Asian drink-stand in our mall where you can buy Bubble Tea. It's REALLY far away, so we don't go often. The Sweet Frog frozen yogurt topping bar has 2 kinds of "bubbles" from bubble tea. She had chocolate yogurt with mango and strawberry bubbles. Life is good, for $3.50.

    We are all done shopping, have lunches for the week, have new clothes and shoes and socks and sundries all laid out for getting dressed in the morning, have 24 glue sticks and hand sanitizer and kleenex and hand soap and boxes upon boxes of crayons and pencils, you all remember this don't you? All we need now is a small miracle to happen, all of us fall asleep instantly at 9 pm and magically awaken at 6 am and NOT fight over the bathroom.

    What are the odds?

    I'm usually like that with people who know me and expect no less.

    Me neither! I don't like hurting people's feelings, and I don't intentionally do it.

And I hope that when I acknowledge that I've done that and apologize that it's understood that I didn't mean to be hurtful.

    I would never hurt an undeserving person's feelings on purpose. What I do is more a of 'gentle' teasing. ;)

    You had me rolling on the floor with your "juice that tastes/smells like dried farts" and the vendor who "stole my address, broke into my house and planted dust bunnies under the bed" comment. I'd love to see much more of your humor if that's any indication. :p
