    Wondering if I should should shovel my elderly neighbours driveway. Or if it would be insulting to him, he’s like 75+ but he has better posture than me, he seems really strong still. I’m just wondering because I remember a lady saying someone opened the door for her and she felt as if the person was insinuating she’s a was a lil old lady and couldn’t do it for herself.

    But if the snow accumulates too much it’ll be too heavy for him to carry. And my snow blower I bought last year, stopped working so I have to make a decision NOOWW before it gets too heavy ya feel me.

    I would do it. I am fully capable of doing my own driveway, but the times I've come home and some kind stranger did it for me - they made my day.

    Instead of snapchat i think there should be a sharkchat where people can post pics of themselves as sharks and interact with people who also like sharks. i think it would blow up the internet but there’s still some kinks to work out idk

    I like this, but instead of sharks, maybe go with Dung Beetles?





    okay.... maybe 'sharks' is a better idea.

    My kids and I do this in my grandparents' neighborhood when we're there during the holidays. It's a way for us to get out of the jam-packed holiday festivities in the house for a bit, burn off dinner (or lunch, or breakfast) and chat.

    When folks come to the door confused, I just yell: 🗣️ "We're exercising!"

    They shrug or wave and go back inside. Wins all around.

    TLDR: Do it anyway.

    Okay, so what’s on my mind is: why do I feel it’s okay for my husband to chat and DM the female internet friends he makes through the internet channels/forums he participates in (e,g.: Twitter groups, other forums) but I feel guilty when I chat with dudes who have proven to be harmless here on MFP? WTF is up with the patriarchy making me feel like kitten?? 😠

    why does that make you feel guilty

    I'm always up for blaming the patriarchy for just about everything. But how does it apply here assuming neither of you are having flirtatious conversation (and/or have established what "crossing the line" means for your relationship with each other)?

    Also, why is the "Strong Curves" book thicker (pun intended) than the majority of my grad textbooks?

    It's fairly rare that a post/thread gets under my skin the way this one is currently doing I keep repeating I'm a nice person over and over in my head to stop me from saying it without saying it I digress but someone may need to hold my cosmo for me soon

    I get this way sometimes, too.

    I have waited years to hear this from any one of my gfs. Sigh...one day.

    Just keep trying. Practice makes perfect. :flowerforyou:

    That disagree must be a scroll click. Who would disagree with this?

    I empathize. 🤪
