This happened to us one winter. We had installed the cheapest security camera system we could buy about ten years ago and it gave out an image that was just one step better than standard definition … but the great thing was that we were able to access it remotely online with an app on our phones. We thought we had entered into the future world and we were technologically more advanced than anyone we knew. The image was terrible, the connection was spotty and it frequently dropped connection if we logged on too long and scrolled through the video notices.
Then one night while we were hours away from home, we went to review the security cam again … an alien creature was sprawled out on our lawn with dozens of legs and appendages that moved in various directions. We thought it was just dust, or sticks or grass and monitored it for several minutes until it started moving like some intelligent creature.
My wife stepped back and walked away, disgusted at what she saw … then from far away, she started laughing and said, ‘put it down’ and I stepped back … from ten feet away, we could clearly see that a spider had made a web over the camera

That’s also hilarious logic … God creates man in his own image … God creates woman because ‘reasons’ and makes the decision to give her an opening that physically compliments his appendage … then places them both in a garden where they are completely unaware of why the anatomy between their legs is so different between the two of them. Tells the two of them not to eat this particular apple … but they eat it anyway, so God throws an epic eternal hissy fit, throws them out of the garden because the apple has caused them to look at their junk and think that they could rub up against one another and he could penetrate her and it would be totally fun for both of them
For a guy who totally created everything in the universe … you’d think he could be able to hit the reset button on all this and just not allow any created person any chance of gaining any kind of knowledge and just let them live out their existence like a beautiful flower or a tree and not disturb anything or anyone

Also creates two sexes so that there can be a complicated method of procreation … makes the act very enjoyable … even makes using the parts by yourself very enjoyable
Bans everyone from doing it or even thinking about it and only allows them to do it to reproduce … watches everyone who even thinks about doing it or acting out on it
- Comment on Nobody ever knows 5 weeks ago:
The thinking, mentality and emotions about all this are normal … I know, because I’m getting to the age and experience in life that I feel this way too sometimes …
… the part that is not normal is that many of these people choose not to be polite, considerate, accommodating, compassionate, empathetic or kind and keep these thoughts and ideas to themselves.
Think about it … if I applied every idea or thought that you thought was a good idea, it would satisfy a good percentage of everyone, but it would not be suitable for everyone. The same thing applies to everyone else’s ideas or thoughts. None of our individual ideas will ever perfectly mesh with everyone in society … we all have to learn to accept and live with the idea that we all have to live within certain limits and learn to accommodate others around us and hope that they do the same for us.
We all have to compromise a little bit for one another and that way, we all get to live in a little bit of peace … because due to human nature and our ever expanding ability to screw with one another in ever more creative ways, it’s the best we can hope for.
Perhaps the first step towards any kind of sanity in all this is in first understanding that this is how we all are.

Slather it in butter … then fry an egg on top … keep cooking eggs and start up a small breakfast place and call it the ‘Ground Nut Breakfast Joint’

I’ve often thought of doing that … but around here, enough people do that that it isn’t that scary for people any more … my idea was to create three or four identical scarecrows or dressed up characters and sit in as one of them.
- Comment on In case you weren’t sure which box 1 month ago:
They are common up here in northern Ontario in Canada … but it’s just a habit with people up here … everyone prefers using the back door and when you get there, you knock on the door. The front door is more or less decorative and seldom used and usually used only for days like Halloween or mail package deliveries (and package carriers are better as they almost always use door bell)
- Comment on In case you weren’t sure which box 1 month ago:
lol … my favourite is Halloween … a few years ago, I put up a paper sign on the door with an arrow pointing to the ‘DOOR BELL’ … I even added extra instructions ‘RING DOORBELL FOR CANDY’ … and at one point I even put a sign lower to the ground so that kids could read it. My wife laughed at me and said that people weren’t that stupid and they’ll see the large bright glowing button of the doorbell and use it to get our attention.
About three quarters of the people - whether they be kids or adults or both - knocked loudly on the door and ignored all the signs. I even had some miffed adults look at me weird for taking too long because I didn’t hear them pounding on the door.
For the past few Halloweens, I gave up and now I just sit by the door and wait for people to arrive and greet them before they even have a chance to knock.

You’re right it doesn’t … but if you’re a good cook, you spend about half an hour preparing food, about ten / fifteen minutes actually cooking your food, ten minutes to prepare everything else, half an hour or more (depending on your company) eating and entertaining guests … then another half an hour or more cleaning up and putting things away.
Working in the kitchen is more than just frying, boiling or baking the actual thing you are making … you spend a lot of time preparing and a whole bunch of time after cleaning up.
- Comment on Oh that is BRUTAL 1 month ago:
This works depending on the cook.
If he is a good cook and knows how to work in a kitchen … he doesn’t get distracted and his first thought is on the food, the hot grill and things burning or catching on fire. He’ll respond in an hour with a picture of a perfectly cooked sandwich
If he only cooks from time to time and doesn’t care that much for cooking … he is easily distracted and will burn his food with a simple text message. He’ll send you an angry text back.
If he never cooks … he’s texting you right back with a meme reaction, 27 instagram posts, 12 tiktoks, 5 youtube shorts, and 10 angry political posts for twitter because you just set him off as he’s sitting on the couch doom scrolling while eating a dozen grilled cheese sandwiches he ordered from Doordash

Same here … I think it’s an age thing. I used to be intimidated by older people who talked too long … not intimidated by aggression or anything, just intimidated out of respect … I was taught to always give time to your Elders, give them space and let them talk because they give wisdom and knowledge. But of course, more than half the time, it’s just old person either talking to amuse themselves, or just talking just to talk with no rhyme or reason.
But once you get past a certain age … most of everyone around you is becoming younger than you and anyone older is talking less and if they are talking, they seldom want to talk to you. So anyone who does talk to you and especially if they want to talk too long or too much, you just don’t give a shit anymore and there are no more cultural rules or taboos, so you can freely cut down the length of the interaction, be polite, say you gotta go and leave. And honestly, it feels great to leave those kinds of long winded empty conversations because it feels like you just gained an hour of your day back.
