I was chatting with my favorite son tonight and he said he preferred brownies and cake without frosting and the cookie part of Oreo cookies instead of the cream in the center. I never realized before that he was obviously switched at birth.


Most likely doesn't lick deviled eggs either :drool:. We could be cousins.

I don't think there is anything more awkward that when some starts talking to you like they know you, and you have no fucking idea who the hell they are.
While I was riding my bike past the horseback riding a woman stopped in the middle of leaving stopped in her truck and started talking to me, but I had no idea who she was. I was kinda behind the truck so couldn't really see her.
I did think of one possibility after she pulled away, but I'm not sure if that was her.
I have this happen to me but I always try to be in the mindset of what kind of person they are and maybe they don't have anyone else to talk to. I feel like I could end up being that guy. I was down at the beach one day walking my sister's dog and it was windy and some bird was trying to fly into it but it looked to me like the bird was hovering in mid air. I'd never seen it before and thought it was the best and I start yelling at some rando that walked by "HEY LOOK AT THAT BIRD ISN'T IT WILD THAT'S CRAZY!" kinda stuff. He just nodded and walked by. :D
 
Oh yeah, I always try and be as nice as I can in those situations.
I actually did find out who the lady was a couple days after I posted that. It turned out she wasn't the lady I thought she might be, but she was her friend. I've run into them riding out on the street quite a bit, and have stopped and talked to them a few times. So she might have been letting me know she was going riding, in case I was coming back into the neighborhood, since I usually do two laps. I was already on my second lap though, so I didn't go back after that.
 
I found out yesterday a coworker - super nice guy - died in a car crash.

Take care of each other. Tomorrow isn't guaranteed.

Thank you Troi....... I feel the same way with the news about mum and her esophageal cancer. We found out last week.

Poor Jay Leno! I feel so bad for him. :(

I used to love watching his car videos, so much fun.

Oh and yeah Facebook thank you Facebook you made me do a huge WTF with this

How do I stop my parents from using the speaker option on their phones when they're in public? They've been doing it for years.
 
they (in my case only a mom is left) also expect you to always remember that their phone is on speaker. so if you call someone a moron there's a good chance said moron is sitting on her couch.

My Mom never puts the speaker on....but she also never uses her phone for anything but solitaire. She takes it with her wherever she goes, but never uses it. We were out shopping once and she found the item she wanted but hesitated to buy because she wasn't sure what the competitor charged. I told her to look it up on her phone and she said, "Oh, I'll just have to wait to until we get home and then I can look it up on the computer."

"Mom, your phone IS a computer." I took out my phone, looked up the store's site, showed her the price.

She plays solitaire on her phone for about a hour every day, so I know she can SEE what's on the screen. I think she doesn't feel the phone is "safe" for shopping or maybe moving through sites is too difficult. She won't say. But's she's 89, so the fact that she shops online and still gets around is pretty good.

she does that with her landline - her cell phone is mostly deactivated (she's 83)
