    I need an extreme version of MFP, with an accountability structure that allowed for literal punches to the face if goals weren't met.

    Not actually for fitness though (though I guess it works for that, too) but for other things.

    Like a terrible SAW movie but for developing good habits

    This could actually work for fitness goals though

    ‘Lose 25 lbs or you’ll lose a leg’ i mean either way you’re losing some weight

    I wish i had a british accent sometimes. They can say basically anything and it sounds posh. “I left the rubbish until after I did the hooverin and now I have to hoover the carpet all over again. Litchrally a proper knob, aren’t I.”

    depends on their region

    I love it and could listen to it all day

    not a fan of british accents tbh but idk why

    Heck, we kicked'em out over two hundred years ago, just so we didn't have to listen to it.

    "Pip, pip... jolly good show, spot of tea, off you pop!"

    ..... what are y'all talking about ??


    I will not rise to the bait.

    I will not rise to the bait.

    I will not....

    Imitate a yank accent! In the voice thread!
    Or hoser!

    Ask and you shall receive. I'll have to do it for you later though and it will be dreadful I can assure you 😅

    LIES LIES LIES! I’ve been fortunate enough to hear a good bit of this voice and.......swoon. 🥰

    Oops....you meant the imitation? Do that for me next!😘

    I LOVE this place. And the way you all banter. So many times I think 'wish *I'd* thought of that'.

    I used to think that all the time too, especially with one particular user that I thought was so uniquely funny and clever, and it used to make me feel so lame. I’ve realized though that it’s *because* we don’t come up with the same things that this place is interesting.

    Lately I’ve been appreciating the people who openly laugh at things. My college roommate told me once that she felt stupid always being the one in the room laughing but never the one making anyone laugh. I was dumbfounded. She consistently made me feel like a million bucks because of her frequent laughter, and it pained me that she didn’t feel that same way around me. I grew up in a household where the one laughing was, by default, the least funny. My siblings so rarely laughed at what I said that to this day I consider a laugh one of the best compliments. For a long time I’d answer a joke back with another joke rather than a laugh because that was all I knew. It wasn’t until I was with someone who did that ALL THE TIME that I realized how much I hated it.

    Now I try to make sure people know when I laugh at their stuff. It’s a great feeling, it should be shared. It’s already hard enough to know someone’s reaction on the internet where you can’t just see it.

    If people had to choose to be around someone who was either very funny or who laughed freely but not both, it would be interesting to see what they’d choose. I know which one I’d choose. Luckily most everyone is some combination of both. Some people trigger me because they would NEVER admit to laughing at someone else’s joke. It’s like this weird power move. But I love people like you who openly share when they think something is clever or interesting. Maybe I have a flimsy ego that requires massaging, but I don’t think so. I think most everyone would feel similarly.

    Ugh so many words, sorry

    I love all these words. Never really thought about any of it this way. Thanks. ❤️

    So the weather is still cooking hot in Palookaville, so I bail for the weekend.

    Head up to the mountains.

    Cool pine trees.
    Fresh air.
    Cold running streams.

    Wrong.

    Even up here. Record high temperatures in the triple digits with the added pleasure of smoke blowing in from the Northern California wild fires.

    ...... maybe I can hop a flight to Antarctica??

    there's room on the couch here - after all - it's going to snow tomorrow :D

    I haven't seen my family in a year and I'm visiting them right now. When it was time for my niece to go to her dad's she threw the most dramatic crying fit running through the house and locking doors because she wanted to stay with me. 😅 I'm getting to see her tomorrow but she's never been good with goodbyes. That kid is sassy, high energy and hilarious. Got my whole heart ❤️.

    To quote an indie Canadian band Stars, “it’s so cold in the country October to May” which is 8 months. so...not entirely a jest. *also hands you warm boots - learn from my mistakes*

    Self improvement and focus is a long arduous journey but its worth it. Learning to be alone and being fine being alone is a very very difficult thing to do.

    Not an introvert are you? I found being alone very empowering, not being held accountable for every decision or action I made. Not being judged or worried all the time.
    If you look hard, there are definite pros being alone, until you find that certain someone who is just right for you. Good luck and glad you're finding the journey worth it. :)

    My criteria for picking out cards:
    -Are there too many words? Because I usually put it back on the shelf if it’s too long. It would have to be REALLY good and for someone REALLY good to have a lot of words.
    -How expensive is it? When did stupid cards become over $6? Unless it’s REALLY good from someone REALLY good I’m gonna throw it away. And I assume they are gonna too.

    Also....50-75% of cards I forget to give anyway. Why do I actually ever buy cards?

    Smart! If I plan ahead I do too. But I usually splurge for the $1 Hallmark ones. 😂
