Accident or wreck?

Judy Evans @JudyEv (369600) • Rockingham, Australia 18 Jan

America and Australia share a language but we also have quite a few differences in the way we use words and expressions. One I’ve noticed is the word ‘wreck’. I’ve read remarks like ‘we were in a wreck’ or ‘following a wreck…’ ....

Even Republicans are flipping out about Trump's threat to invade Greenland

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (126013) • United States 17 Jan

The whole thing is insane. I don't know what his dementia-ridden obsession is with Greenland which is part of Denmark and our NATO ally. Republicans are speaking out against his threats to annex the island by military force....

Go Crossbones I am actually worried more about military. Alot of the top resigned over this stuff. Congress does not matter, the last 4 presidents they reserved it for the President to make the decision, basically giving away their power in the name of stealth. That being...

Will America go to war with Europe over Greenland

Emmanuel Adelakun @ogbenishyna44 (1063) 17 Jan

Europe has made it clear that they will not allow president Trump and the USA to take Greenland from Denmark. They went further to deploy troops to the Island forcing Trump to impose 10% tariff on the United Kingdom and several...

Go Crossbones If they do, we do, I almost don't want to say I am an American because so ashamed how my country is acting. That being said, it will be basically ww3. Trump better think really hard about this and that is not his strong suit.

Good evening myLot

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (126013) • United States 17 Jan

Hello everyone. I hope your night is going well. It is 31 degrees F and dark here at the Jersey Shore. We are supposed to get 2-4 inches of snow starting tomorrow morning. Ugh. Today has been a wash for the most part. I was up...

Found a quarter

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (48688) • Staten Island, New York 17 Jan

I was going to the bank earlier this week and on my way there I found a quarter lying on the ground. Decided to pick it up even though there were some people around. If I wouldn’t have done so someone else would have taken it,...

Go Crossbones I used to get made fun as a kid, because when walking to school the richer kids in my school would see me as they drove by and see me looking at the ground. They thought I was sad, nope just doing what my grandfather told me, always look at the ground because...

A student and I wrote an original song!

The Horse @TheHorse (233978) • Walnut Creek, California 17 Jan

Lela, who is eight, was noodling on piano. She did something "cool." l said "Do that again." Within a few minutes we had "written" other parts of her song. I grabbed some staff paper and wrote out our song. Maybe we'll perform...

Ads and Commercials Really Get My Goat

celticeagle @celticeagle (184551) • Boise, Idaho 17 Jan

I am very grumpy today. An ad on the page I was on here was of a woman with some skin goo and she was supposed to look younger, I guess. The one picture she looked normal but the other one her eyes are slits and she looks evil....

Stupid People Know Everything

kay lar @jaylar (2856) • Kingston, Jamaica 17 Jan

They do no real research, listen to no actual experts. They make some conclusion based on farce, and proceed. Failure never teaches them anything. Anyone who did a slight glance at world trade would know that most countries in...

Let’s Go to Coyote

RasmaSandra @RasmaSandra (93151) • Daytona Beach, Florida 17 Jan

The village, located in Rio Arriba County, was named after Coyote Canyon. The canyon, presumably, was so named because of the large number of coyotes that could be heard howling during the night. The town’s roots date back to...

Stores You Wish You Had

Amber @AmbiePam (110579) • United States 15 Jan

I realized we had an Ollie’s a few weeks ago, which is a store several people on here talk about frequenting for deals. A store I wish we had, but don’t is a Trader Joe’s. I still remember being happy when we got a Whole Foods...

Go Crossbones Trader Joes is good and different but way to rich for me. When it comes to costs, and where I just fall of the ways the US does things. I just do not like how business works in general because its not as inclusive as everyone makes it out to be, its a all...

Judy Evans @JudyEv (369600) • Rockingham, Australia 16 Jan

A few nights ago, we went to bed about 10/30pm and about an hour later, I was just managing to get to sleep when there was an almighty crash somewhere in the house. I shot out of bed with my heart pounding. Some years ago,...

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (53614) 16 Jan

It's been a wild week. I didn't realize until today that my driver's license has to be renewed by the end of the day tomorrow, and that's a Saturday. Usually, they send notices about it to remind us. I am sure they no doubt did...

By now we all know about the shooting of an unarmed woman by an ICE agent in Minneapolis Minnesota. I believe that the perp will get away with a Voluntary Manslaughter conviction, but that's a subject for another post. As I was...
