    Don't Get Too Attached

    tldr: What kind of attachments would you want for a phone? There is a phone called an HMD Fusion. It has two tricks. The first trick is, you can take it apart and replace the camera, screen, battery, whatever if it breaks or wears out. Replacement parts are pretty cheap too. They claim they...

    Next Antichrist

    Pope Francis is dead. Now they will have to elect a new Pope. The new Pope, whomever he may be, will be automatically heralded by some as the Antichrist. It is inevitable. So who do you think it will be? Any bets to place? How about bets on how long it will take between the announcement of...

    Does Anyone Else...

    This is a thread for all those things you do that you're not sure if anybody else does or if you're just ahead of the game. Or maybe crazy. One time at my job there was this teenage girl really stressing out because she was stressing out. She was exhausted and stressed to the point that little...

    Hidden Tech Gems

    This thread is for anything you have noticed lately that has improved life, but nobody has announced it. They just did it and didn't tell anybody and now our lives are better. Brussels sprouts, for example. Anybody noticed how they are soooo much better now? If you remember yucky, bitter...

    Ignore This Thread

    I just discovered something. If you have somebody on ignore, and that ignored person starts a thread, you don't even see that the thread has been started. If the thread already exists when you put the person on ignore, it disappears from your screen. Even if other people have posted in the...

    What Did You Do For Valentine's Day?

    No I didn't make a mistake. I intended to start this in the singles forum. We have a life too and we can have fun too. So what did you do? Did you go out to eat? Did you go see a movie? Did you watch a movie at home on a streaming service? Did you go out or watch with a friend? With a...

    Inequality

    This thread is about mistakes: How you made them, what you did to fix them and how you make sure you will never do them again. The title comes from my memories of trying to cut a pie into equal slices... Then I get to the last slice and realize I have messed up terribly, and I'll either get...

    Freeze Your Eggs!

    No, not that... This thread is about batch cooking. I was doing batch cooking before it was cool. See, about six or seven years ago the doctor said Grandma's blood sugar was sky high. Investigation revealed she had started just grabbing whatever food was easy to eat instead of actually cooking...

    TIMBER!

    How long until the tree comes down? Does your family leave it up until January 6th? Did you take it down today? Is there always an argument between those who want to take it down fast and those who want to leave it up a while? https://www.gocomics.com/arloandjanis/2024/12/26

    Did you believe in Santa?

    When you were a kid did you believe in Santa Claus? Did you not believe? Did you argue with kids who believed differently? Did you ever fight with other kids about whether Santa was real? If your parents did tell you Santa was real, when did you find out he was not? If your parents did...

    Bible Accent

    I'm laying out of w*rk today because my body says it wants to stay warm and horizontal until it deals with this intruder I picked up. Actually my body said that yesterday but not quite as loud, so I probably infected a few people at w*rk. Oops. So in the meantime, here's a conversation from my...

    Single Breakfast

    A comedian once observed that single people get weirder over time because they consider themselves normal and they don't have anybody else to measure what is "normal" against. There is nobody to tell them, "Don't EVER do that in public." So they just out here living their lives, with no idea...

    More layers or more heat?

    It's that time of year again. Time for everything to freeze, including us. I have observed there are two kinds of people. Those who deal with cold by putting on more layers and those who deal with it by cranking the heat up. So which are you? Do you hibernate under a mound of blankets...

    I'm SOOOOOO

    I'm SOOOO certain this thread will have a good run that I am starting it. What are you SOOOOO? Will you play it straight? "I'm SOOOO epicurean that I refused to eat Swiss cheese in Switzerland. I eat only imported cheese, and all their cheese was domestic." Will you play it sarcastic? "I'm...

    Pagan Holiday Thread

    Back in the day we could count on a good crop of pagan holiday threads. Halloween is pagan, Christmas is pagan, Easter is pagan, even Thanksgiving... From 2014 to 2019 or so we had lots of them to enjoy. We would have a grand old time every year arguing about this or that holiday once again, in...

    Newfangled Junk!

    This thread is about old people getting used to new things. I picked up a 2016 Hyundai Elantra. Lord help me... Before this, my latest model car was the 2003 Mazda minivan. Lots of stuff for me to get used to now. The motor starts if you hit the lock button four times, and I'm never quite...
