    It occurs to me that even though I am trying, I am terrible at poetry. Give me the option to write prose and I'm fine, but poetry man? Just no. Unless it's absolute nonsense, I suck at it. :laugh:

    I liked yours...it's all deep and *kitten*

    I will continue to bump the thread with dumb poetry, then. Just for you. Until you get sick of it.

    No clue what is wrong with me but my ears have had weird pains on and off recently and now when I’m chewing my ear drums hurt. Sooo this is what mid thirties looks like now. I’m something always hurts years old.

    I’ve been having play dates with my son and his friend, since summertime. They’re both on the Autism spectrum and typically do their own thing. Today, for the first time both boys were interacting, jumping together and making eye contact with one another. These are the moments that mean the most to me.💜

    That’s awesome A!

    ok I could google, but prefer to ask you people, 'cause you all know my grammar sucks and I like to know if other people wonder too

    when writing something in () or "quoties"do you put you punctuation inside the parenthesis/quotation or outside?

    and how do you use ' vs " quoties?

    'Single' vs "phrases"

    (outside). That's what we do writing essays for 'uni' or college as American people call it. I'm a lazy writer in msgs though

    When someone “Disagrees” with another person’s selfie, there is no doubting that the disagreer is showing they don’t like that person.

    I mean, how does one disagree with a selfie?

    Imo, mfp missed the mark with this one as well.

    Maybe not the person per se, but probably definitely some aspect of that person's appearance. That's why I really despise the disagree option.

    All I wanted was a laugh react, man.

    I hate the disagree more than woo. Looking on posts I see people disagree with peoples feelings, like its wrong for them to feel that way. It's patronising to. I want a laugh react too, I'm writing a letter! Dear Mr MFP...

    Having a proud Mommy moment.

    My daughter texted me saying she needed to talk/text. So she started telling me that she was going to break up with her boyfriend because they had been dating awhile and she just wasn't feeling it, and didn't want to lead him on. She's 24, and I'm really proud she was mature of enough to come to that conclusion especially since I know she's a little needy so her taking a step from someone giving her that attention is a big deal.
    It's also a big deal that she even came to me in the first place. She's closer to her step mom than she is with me, and I'm ok with that. As long as she has someone she can confide in like that, I'm ok with sharing mom duties.

    But she came to me, and that was huge.

    That's great!!!! I'm a single mum to two teens and they tell me everything and I love that.

    Starting a family has really been on my mind for a few years now and I kind of feel panicked. Nothing is in order still and I'm 30. The biological clock is so loud. I really wanted to be a wife and a mother but life didn't turn out that way. I guess I still have time but time seems to move so fast.

    About 30% of the time my morning coffee gives me acid reflux.
    I recently bought a bag of Colombian Dark Roast Low Acid Coffee.
    The first sip was very smooth,
    problem was it tasted nothing like coffee.
    I can’t explain what it tasted like but it wasn’t tea and it wasn’t coffee.

    Anyone know of a decent low acid coffee?

    If it’s a complete sentence the punctuation goes inside the parentheses. Quotation mark rules change depending on which country you’re in.

    I learn something every day from you, I just can't decipher truth from humor. 😂😘

    I don’t joke about punctuation. ❤️

    Cool, how about exclamation marks, inside or outside? Is it the same, if the sentence is done for all punctuation?

    I find myself using " for like an actual quote and ' to draw attention to something, or for a quote within a quote.

    i want to try this but it’s selling for $18.75 a case on Amazon.

    It tastes like liquid cake, but that's expensive. Don't trust Amazon prices they have those weird marketers that upsell everything, sometimes. I remember looking for a $5 power cord once and someone was trying to sell one for $100. Smh.

    I hear 35 is the new 25. Also that reminds me of this:
