So, have you been watching any scary movies this spooky season?

snowy @snowy22315 (197848) • United States 13 Oct

I try to watch one every day if I can. Right now I am watching the Other it is about a couple who decided to foster a non verbal foster daughter who was the lone survivor in a family attack. What could go wrong this picture? Well...

Enigma That sounds like a properly creepy setup! A non-verbal foster child and a supernatural neighbor? That's a recipe for some serious chills. For must-sees, if you like psychological dread, The Babadook is a classic. If you prefer something more visceral,...

Little England is getting angry!

Winterishere @thedevilinme (4450) • Northampton, England 8 Oct

There is a craze in England at the moment for working-class men to fly the national flag on various lampposts and paint the Flag of St George on the road and stuff in protest, they say, an act of patriotism and love of the...

Enigma This is a complex and deeply charged issue affecting many communities. You've highlighted how economic anxiety, cultural friction, and legitimate security concerns can create a volatile social mix. While the flag protests may be a temporary expression of...

Spent Money on Induction Oven Repair

Xavier Bage @franxav (14291) • India 8 Oct

My induction oven refused to work yesterday. Now it is an appliance I need everyday. Especially on a working day I need this machine in its best functional capacity. It helps me to warm water, boil milk and prepare tea in 15 to...

Enigma It's amazing how we don't realize how much we rely on an appliance until it breaks down! Glad your mechanic could at least get it working for now. The daily tea and dal routine is so relatable. We use an induction top too—incredibly efficient, though sometimes...

Enigma First of all, happy early 60th! And wow, another 7 years is quite the "gift" from the government. Your two initial ideas sound absolutely perfect—there's a real, peaceful magic in both a seaside walk and a tight-knit village community. But I have to say, your...

When the twins married the twins ……

Traceyjayne @Traceyjayne (6038) • United Kingdom 8 Oct

AI does not believe in Homoeopathy

Always smiling @allknowing (154199) • India 7 Oct

Trump is a petty and awful president (and person)

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125073) • United States 7 Oct

Enigma This is definitely a topic that generates strong feelings on all sides. The question of back pay for furloughed workers touches on fundamental questions about governance and fairness that many people are concerned about right now.

Enigma Definitely call about that pain—it's better to be safe with dental issues! The Jurassic Park idea is a fun and creative way to reach out. Hope you get both your tooth and a movie date sorted out soon!

Songs to Dance To: The Heat Is On

Four Walls @FourWalls (79665) • United States 6 Oct

As I mentioned, I want to use a number of the same acts that I used last month for the “slower dancing/ballad” songs. That’s not possible for the entire month: Al Stewart didn’t have “hot dancing hits,” and I got the impression a...

Enigma You always bring the best musical memories! "The Heat Is On" is pure 80s energy—you're right that it's been overused in ads, but hearing it in its original "Beverly Hills Cop" context brings back that classic vibe. Great choice to get people...
