Not even close. I saw a vending machine being refilled. There was a stack of cans of soda. Vending machine guy put his foot right on top of the cans to toe his shoe.

Waze is lame. It takes you through all kinds of residential neighborhoods you have no real business being in. I still like the news

Reply to comment by CasitaBandita in LPT Request: How to stop losing earrings from ears by Sugarpeas
Thank you!
Most do seem to be in good condition, but I’ll check through everything and see if there are any physical adjustments I can make!!!
The screw back indeed were probably wearing down. Ugh. Gold is awfully soft and that’s the trade off for having to get gold earrings.

Maybe just stop watching TV. Life is too short for commercials and reruns. Go live.

I take a few with me to wipe off the toilet if I'm ever using the bathroom at gas stations. Just helps ya scrape the filth right off there. Then when you're done you just put em back good as new.

Speaking about folding and ironing: I iron my cheese sandwiches.

I love the feeling of yanking out a bunch of nose hairs. Anyone else?

Geeze folks, face it: a linen closet is just a rigid stuff-sack.

Teeth maybe?
I've seen plenty of those SpongeBob documentaries, so I know that natural sponges have prominent incisors.

Buy second hand. Mostly because new things are scams. Garage sales with the boys on spring Saturdays.

Ahem!
Maybe you misunderstand?
I wasn't talking about you ironing YOUR sheets. I was talking about you ironing MY sheets.
There's a crucial difference there.
If you do a nice job and I'm all warm and cozy when I put myself down to sleep in those freshly pressed sheets, then I'll give your a good review! (I have 3 followers on Facebook!)

Maybe…. If you’re an alcoholic 😂

Or you could have some self control and only drink a little.
Or at least you'll have drunk a bunch of nice whiskey. Win/Win.

I think it's best to tell people that are very close to you about your resolutions so they hold you accountable and keep you on track. But I don't think it's a good idea to broadcast them on social media. If you don't stay on track, it could lead to feelings of guilt and embarrassment knowing that everyone can see that you haven't followed through.

I just pee in the sink. Usually height wise it’s a better drain and reduces the amount of steps I have to take.

Reply to comment by Just_OneReason in LPT: If you need to transport balloons, use a fitted sheet by DrugOfGods
Thanks! I figured it out a few years ago while trying to carry a bunch of balloons to a New Years party. Figured it might help someone else this time of year.

Costco will sell you a huge bag of baking soda. $10 for 13 pounds.
https://www.costco.com/CatalogSearch?dept=All&keyword=baking+soda
You can use it for experiments on weeds you hate as it is quite hard on plant life. You can use it to put out fires. You can mix it with vinegar (also CHEAP at Costco). This is stuff you need, as much as Mentos and Diet Coke, also available at Costco.
