Does This Bother Any of You?

celticeagle @celticeagle (183132) • Boise, Idaho 13 Dec

I am online a lot. I am on YouTube nearly every day, I do a lot of research, I check my emails on different platforms, I interact on Mylot, I add something occasionally to Facebook, etc. I am also a member of a writing site and...

moirai Well, yes, it does bother me. But some more than others. Like, if it's just minor - one or two mistakes here and there... As long as what's written can still be easily understood, it's fine, I guess. I could comment to correct it, and sometimes I do, but...

The Post Office (did something they never did before)!

Anne Marie Guyer @LeaPea2417 (39226) • Toccoa, Georgia 13 Dec

Today, for the first time in my life, I received a piece of mail with literal No Stamp on it! I'm serious. A long time friend from my school days sent me a Christmas Card like she does practically every year. This year, she...

moirai We don't really get mail anymore (except for bills) so... What are stamps for again? I've forgotten. Is it pretty much just a proof that certain fees have been paid? In which case, if the mail got to you, it may be possible there originally...

Do you remember the first novel you ever read? If so, what was it?

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (48) • United States 13 Dec

I can only remember back to about 12 years old and falling in love with Nancy Drew books. My parents had divorced and I got forced to move 2 hours away from my Dad and he bought a monthly subscription and once a month I got a...

moirai Ah. No. I can't remember my very first either. But since you mentioned Nancy Drew books, I would say those are probably some of the firsts. A friend of mine had an older sister who had a collection of those books (not all, but a lot). And so my friend gave...

moirai Ah. Sorry that happened. But it's not the end of the world. Whatever doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. Ahaha. Maybe that's a little too dramatic for scattered beads. But you'll learn from this for sure. Like...

Should I clean out my email?

Angel Nelson @AngelNelson (29) 13 Dec

I have a total of over 118,000 pages of emails in my main account. I have just neglected to keep it cleaned and organized over the years. Is it even necessary? I mean, what could happen if you don't clean out...

moirai I also need to clean out my email(s) for sure. I've neglected most of them, and the main one I only check the important stuff (bills, for example) but never delete anything. Surely there's a way to quickly delete at least some of the mail? For example, if...

You have GOT to be kidding me

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125581) • United States 12 Dec

I always have the TV on in the background when I'm here and not reading or sleeping. Most of the time it is the news but it also could be Friends, Outlander, or a movie. I don't sit even facing it but I am listening as I work on...

Housing Possibilities

Fishmomma @Fishmomma (11627) • United States 9 Dec

I have posted about the possibility of moving and viewed many houses, but haven't found the right one yet. There was one I liked, but it sold so fast. The house I'm living in now had somebody else interested when we bought it,...

Shows and Crushes

Loretta @noni1959 (11519) • United States 4 Dec

moirai On gravitating towards ones who weren't the most popular... Maybe it's a subconscious thought that you'll have more of a chance with them than the most popular ones, or that you subconsciously don't want to be among the ones fawning over the most popular...

New Stargate series coming to Amazon Prime

moirai @moirai (2951) • Philippines 6 Dec

Just imagine if an airplane landed on your car.

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (52207) 11 Dec

I just can't even fathom this. It happened on I-95 near Cocoa, Florida Monday. A small plane, carrying the pilot and one passenger, landed on a Toyota Camry. What's even more unbelievable is that no one died. The driver of the...

Miami Township Ohio Police Officer Foley responded to an emergency call on November 19 when a 79 year old man was choking on a meal inside of a restaurant. Officer Foley used a LifeVac device from his cruiser to remove the object...

moirai Good job, Officer! This made me curious, though... I did not realize there are devices now that can be used for choking. When I read the title, I just thought he performed the Heimlich maneuver. So anyway, I looked it up, and... is it...

Do You Like White Chocolate?

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (48) • United States 12 Dec

As you know I'm a HUGE chocolate fan, but for whatever reason I've never really cared for either white chocolate or dark chocolate. Just plain old milk chocolate for me, I guess. Hubby bought us some European Chocolate Cookies...

moirai White chocolate is definitely the one I least like. I just find it too sweet. Milk chocolate is fine, but to me, the less sweet, the better. So I actually prefer dark chocolate more.

Anyway, ordered sis and bro in law a pet cam for Christmas

snowy @snowy22315 (200009) • United States 12 Dec

I think that is a perfect present. We were talking about that at Thanksgiving. They go away a lot on the weekends, and leave their cats alone. Sometimes they are gone for awhile, so I think a pet cam would be good for peace of...

Question About a Review

Amber @AmbiePam (108026) • United States 12 Dec

So I went to review a candle, and the candle smelled amazing, but the top of the box was ripped halfway off. It did not affect the candle at all, and I got the candle free to review. However, it is a $110 candle. They solely want...
