Orwar Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Peeve: I bought a box of dates the other day, and went and grabbed some for a little snack. On the box it says "Dates are good just the way they are, or as a topping for the porridge or the yoghurt. They're also popular for raw-food recipes where they're used for their natural sweetness". Are we so stupid these days we need product descriptions for frickin' fruits? "This is an apple, is nom, also good for putting in pie." Scoffs. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence, the helpful sign in my grocer's that says something like "Haraldson Apple: Tart, good for pies", and another that says "Gala Apple: Sweet, great for a snack". They don't bother putting up a sign that says, "Delicious Apple: Pretty but not good for much". 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PheebyKatz Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) Been a minute since I've posted in here, but it deserves it this time. I'm not into politics, and I hate "influencing" and such, and all I wanted was some basic information on Eastern Orthodox saints. I found an article promising me just the sort I was looking for, too: Eastern Orthodox saints whom one would pray to for peace. And the whole article was about how the Blessed Saint Mary, and several other saints, represent defending the motherland, maintaining national defense, and assisting soldiers in defeating the enemy. They apparently now intercede on behalf of those who want to kick butt. Peace through superior intercession. Don't pray for an end to conflict, or that people's eyes will open and they'll see we're all one big family or anything, pray that we can stomp the other guy and come out on top. *sigh* On the plus side, I did find this fun icon of two dudes kissing. That made everything better, but still. Almost wrecked my mood, they did, for a minute there. Edited August 12, 2023 by PheebyKatz 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you give no source for the text you read I can't comment on that, but I hope I can shed some light concerning the image. The 'Icon of the Embrace of the Apostles Peter and Paul' nicely illustrates 2 Corinthians 13:12 - "Greet one another with a holy kiss". Also they'd be among the first to say don't pray to them; go to the top. Edited August 12, 2023 by Garnet Psaltery Forgot to include the chapter. 3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Zhaoying Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) TW: Bugs Peeve: Crazed bugs. In my part of Florida, bugs exist. Large flying cockroaches, which I rarely see in the house. Yesterday, professional pest control came and performed outside treatment. Last night, a big.."bugger" came crawling after me and also one of my pups a few times, shooing it away didn't help. (The pup actually got up and moved.) Do not think I've ever seen that before, poor guy must've been crazed or really hungry. In the end, he ate my sandal.

Texas (where I was a cub) had the same large flying roaches, and you'd also find shed cicada "skins" hanging onto trees, that seemed like full cicadas. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Mistwalker Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Peeve: Forgetting that I no longer have to TP to an old landmark to see if the place still exists. Instead of hitting the TP button, try hitting the Map button instead. Is the region still there? Can you see a building where the LM shows? There are other clues, too. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you make the mistake of assuming that an event called "The Fifty" is a 50 l sale event, rather than being full price event with 50 merchant, run by the SAME people that run the 50 ls weekend sale list, which isn't a single location event at all? Typically about 2 people a month seem to make that mistake. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
