  • My Mum is turning 54 next month and I’d like to surprise her with a girls vacation but part of me feels bad for leaving my Dad out.

    He might even be relieved... :/

    Why people get so biitchy pants with a person's opinion, I don't get. When I hear opinions that differ from mine, I think about them, I don't ridicule them.
    Bunch of close minded....annnd now I'm sounding judgey...shame on me...it's just where I'm at right now, guess I'm no better.
    I'll just be glad I've inspired comment!?!

    What did you post in lol... I got your back

    I've heard this is the case in the rest of the forums but I've never really seen it...

    Well, yes in the debate threads anyhow

    or better still report it. Let me or another mod get your back.

    if @Mr_Healthy_Habits goes in and they report him, he can get in trouble for violating community guidelines

    I feel like I'm missing out on some good drama.

    Thanks guys, for having my back!!
    It wasn't even anything tho!!
    Made me lol for the hostility...and bytchines
    Probably going to go back there...spewing opinion is what I like about this site, but reminder, chill people are on chit chat, some cool people all over, but be prepared to meet confrontational dork heads!
    Was in the debate section, which is basically an argument forum, to be fair

    I posted in a thread something about whether you should be able to recognize the ingredients in food
    I said I won't buy bread or crackers if I don't recognize the ingredients
    ...and I got replies of something like 'that's what Google is for' and 'it's sad people won't try new things'
    Like wow!
    I just like bread with ingredients I recognize...and I stand by that, bread (and crackers) should have ingredients that don't sound like chemicals
    No big deal, but wow...kinda felt like jumps on the new girl

    And this is why I love you all, mfp chit chat
    For the most part easy going (still upset for my warning that was an honest and positive thing) but in general love you all

    Don't worry about those members Vikka. I sometimes wonder whether they actually have a human filter at times. We can all opt to be dead set on being setoff by others, with every little post, yet it is soooo energy draining on the daily to live like that.

    my Indian neighbor’s house always smells like curry and they are super cool but I’ve never figured out how to ask for curry exactly so let me know how u do it

    Invite them over for dinner sometime and then it'll become a thing.

    OR just be like "hey" at meal time and then casually go "that smells great" and then just go sit down

    You could also ask whichever one you pass, " I smell the delicious curries wafting out of your home, would it be possible to get your masala ratios?" Most families have their own blends. Oftentimes, they're willing to share. Too bad you didn't go over to ask on the 7th of this month, they would have had to invite you to dine with them. Especially, if they'd observed Diwali.

    Simply tell them that whatever they are cooking always smells amazing. You are almost guaranteed to get a plate or 2 or 10 if they are anything like my Indian neighbours! Very generous :)

    Serious thoughts there @bojack5. I hope not. Isn't stem cell treatment an option?

    That they are. Usually, overjoyed when people show interest over being judgemental about spicy foods.

    Double post....I'm so awesome!! Not gonna erase!!

    but @Vikka_V if the FDA approved it then it’s obviously safe because everyone knows the government is there to protect us
    Excellent point!!

    why does life have to be so complicated

    Is it complicated, or is it we dont like the answers to it we must come up with and complicate with rationalizations to avoid the uncomfortable truths?

    Take comfort in knowing that it's just human nature...

    You can spend years studying zen philosophy or whatever but our very nature is too struggle...

    If there is no struggle, there can be no progress, without which we would have never survived as a species...

    It's in our very DNA, nothing we can do about it but become stronger...

    In a twisted way, it's a gift I guess 🤷🏽‍♂️❤️

    This is a good question
