Random Thoughts...or...What's on Your Mind?

[Silvercrest]

Better ... worse ... better ... worse ... I can't decide.

The proximity of two planets... guess what? It teaches you NOTHING.

Not all of the things that people find interesting are just because they teach them something.

I'm not really sure why you feel the need to disparage something that many other people are interested in, but at this point perhaps it's best for everyone to agree to disagree and move on to other random thoughts.

 

[Silvercrest]

Are we supposed to learn anything from random thoughts in the first place? They are random, after all.

Would a sudden epiphany count as a random thought?

 

[Silvercrest]

If you learned something from it, no.

 

[Worf factor9]

Well, if it makes you feel any better neither of you were ever on my list of possible guests.

I will take that as a compliment, I have been socially "distancing."

 

[Avro Arrow]

Would a sudden epiphany count as a random thought?

Yes, of course.

If you learned something from it, no.

I get my groceries with "curbside" delivery. Last week, we got sandwiches at our favorite place via the drive-up window. Today, I got my prescriptions from the pneumatic tube-thingy outside the pharmacy.

My whole life is "Drive-Thru Only."

* Wishes my pharmacy had a pneumatic tube-thingy *

I keep telling myself that next year can't possibly be as bad as this year has been.

It's great. You pull up, press the button , and the pharmacist asks for your name and how many prescriptions you're picking up; you put your ID and credit card in the box and push the button. *phoomf* Off it goes. Then *phoomf * back it comes with your stuff and you drive away. Easy Peasy. Of course, my Mom gets her meds mailed directly to her home. i wish my insurance would cover that.

I keep telling myself that next year can't possibly be as bad as this year has been.

Me: Don't SAY that!
Fate: Heh, heh. Hold my beer and watch this.

Uh-oh, now you've done it.

An old Chinese curse?

I thought it was the title of a Discworld book.

I thought it was the title of a Discworld book.

I was making a smart-ass joke.

Maybe next year is the great alien invasion.
Alien leader "which one of you is Trump?"

Everyone points to Florida

This, exactly!

For the last few years, I've been telling myself that the next year can't get any worse. After what we went through in 2020, I've stopped saying that.

Next year when we get overrun by venomous zombie aliens that breathe fire and shoot lasers from their eyes, that's on you, @JD !

Right! And I was piggybacking on it to make a smart-ass reference to Sir Terry Pratchett, who in turn ....
