Four Seasons Landscaping, famous for it's press conference, has announced on Twitter that they are running down to Wegner's (the grocery store at which the Learned Doctor filmed his crudités video) to pick up some veggies platters for Dr. Oz's conference there. $6.99 each -- if you want the one with salsa. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katherine Heartsong Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 My latest pet peeve! Major landlords who list specific properties for rent with glorious descriptions and pictures (i.e., a full 20K or 30K sim) on the forums ... AND WHO DO NOT LIST THE WEEKLY PRICE in their posting! And this just isn't at one landlord either. wags finger 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then, needing to go back and edit a week's worth of posts. Because rando's comment "Hi how are you" on your post and you notice. Back when I used FB, this annoyed me so much. I finally got myself into the habit of just making the post as normal and then after it was posted, changing that one post to Public. Then it did not get set as default. Another reason to hate FB. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never knew how heavy water-logged carpet was until the clean-up, even cut into small rolls. Yeah, it flooded roughly 8 yrs or so ago, much worse than this time (a foot or so or water). Had carpeting in one room at that time, but some sort of tile or something everywhere else. We never completed the fixing of everything after that flood, so this time there was no flooring or baseboards or even drywall on the lower foot of the walls. And we had very few things actually on the floor. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This person has been a chain smoker for a very long time. There's no way they are gonna even try to quit. I understand that. Habits are hard. However, they also are refusing to get a very simple CT scan (non-invasive, gold-standard, insurance covered) screening. This is all kinds of stupid. And I'm helpless. I said all the things about "if not for you, for me? please?" I trotted out caring, logic, snippets from appropriate articles and crying my eyes out. Not a budge. They won't. Every day I listen to them cough. I have a friend like this. I sometimes wonder if she will truly hack up a lung or die during her coughing fits when we are talking on the phone. It was actually a scan that gave me my cancer scare that finally got me to quit smoking roughly 15 yrs ago. The initial scan showed 'something' in the lungs, so I had to have a more detailed scan. Doctor basically said "Given your smoking history (started when I was 10 yrs old), it is 50/50 chance of either nothing or small cell lung cancer". It scared me to death and I haven't touched a cigarette since that day -- even though it turned out to not be cancer. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seicher Rae Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Well, I'm kind of annoyed by the stupid "leaderboard" thing in these forums. Basically because it points out how much time I waste avoiding adulting. It actually affected how/how much I posted today, as kind of a wake up call thing. The board of shame, as it were. Of course, posting this will only add to my score. Yay. But I wish they'd get rid of that and the point system. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure that people even care about that. I forgot it was even a thing until you mentioned it. A points system for posting on a forum means nothing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
