And you don't have to be old to be bothered by it.

What the hell?

Oh and I think cmyx6go has run out of popcorn by now but is gonna crack a bottle of wine and continue monitoring the otherwise unrelated thread.

No whining here. Can't speak for you, though.

What he said. Some of us don’t whine.

That’s not whining, that’s complaining or ranting. Went to carwash, problem solved. Whining is bitching about something you won’t or can’t change. Bitching just to bitch.

What? Well crap, now I have to go read the Dog Poop thread. I skipped past that a couple days ago.

That’s time you’ll never get back. Typical forum stuff. Poster asks for an opinion, gets opinions he doesn’t agree with. Rinse, repeat.

Thank you, but too late. 10 minutes of life gone reading about dog poop disposal techniques and etiquette. 🤪

More so in the car forums. But we’ve had a few epic posts in the dating thread. I wonder what happened to the two most recent guys.

As for the two recent guys, good question.

In honor of fiveohwblow get the screen shot before the delete.

I drop way too many things these days. Like my hand just decides to go on strike.

That said, I was getting my teeth cleaned today and the hygienist rinsed out my mouth and then dropped the suction tube before he could use it to remove said rinse. So I had to sit there with a mouth full of water I wanted to spit out while he opened a new tube end and got it all inserted. And he's in his late 20s or early 30s, so I had a silent chuckle thinking it isn't just us old farts who are fumble fingered.

Could you drop something for me?!

Show from the 70s. My parents had the board game. Still being played by many to this day.

When half the steps you take every day are caused by going back to wherever you'd just been to do something you forgot to do while you were there.

Related, if you keep driving in circles to accomplish the thing you originally started out to do but - hey look, a store!!!

Anyways, shouldn't those circular miles be rolled back off the odo?

Wifey and I just went and got our second boosters. Then we went next door to the grocery store because we're out of butter. We ended up buying salad stuff, milk, chicken (my gawd that's getting expensive), and bread. We were half way home when it hit us that we never grabbed butter, which was the one thing we went there to get. Like I was saying earlier, repeated steps because you can't remember shit.

And earlier today I was tying up a long electrical cord with a zip tie and when I snipped the excess tie with the scissor, I somehow managed to also snip off a good chunk of flesh from my index finger knuckle. I'm so dangerous with any tool at all in my hands.

….you are sitting at home on the couch eating orange chicken, white rice and a baguette from Cheesecake Factory while watching "…And Just Like That," the Sex and the City reboot.

How embarrassing! ….maybe I'll watch "One Life to Live" instead. I started watching soaps in 5th grade.

I think before you really hurt yourself bad today, you should sit down on the couch with a nice drink and just call it a day
