I'm 75 with one new knee and one 75 year old knee. My idea of mountain climbing is a set of stairs with more than 4 steps.

I am not a Croweater but South Australia and their pie floaters are pretty famous\ud83e\udd23 All I can say is BRING BACK BALFOUR'S PRODUCTS TO COLES PLEASE, ESPECIALLY THE POTATO PIE!

Never, because I live alone! I watch Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy, Best Medicine, DOC, all Law and Order shows, all NCIS shows, Grey's Anatomy, all Chicago shows, sitcoms and everything to do with Nature! \ud83c\udf0e Forgot to add METV! Memorable Entertainment! All of the old Westerns and Sitcoms! \ud83e\udd70

My husband's snoring is so bad it even frightens his cats. He tosses and turns all night every time he turns over it starts all again. He also has episodes where its so loud it jolts him awake. He'll be sound asleep before his head hits the pillow. \ud83e\udd2c

When my cat decides it is time to for us to both dine, which is usually three hours before actual dinner time.

Depends entirely about how you came about your money. If you inherited it and contributed to the running of the family business, then no, but if people died or were harmed along the way to you making your fortune, then a big YES. Bill Gates and his Pharma companies come to mind here....a fortune built on the suffering of others.

2pts for 2 engines on each wing, I would rather just try to fly a small jobber, nothing like passenger airlines

Cuppa tea But for some reason when I visit Adelaide I seem to require a Berocca on a Sunday morning Just can't figure out why ? Any thoughts Razz ?

as long as noodles are gluten free im in.... sounds yum

Just expand on your answer keep going with the thought REALLY

I don't get excited about specials and "specials". I always go by the unit price and very often the product not on special is cheaper if you check the unit price. Dishwashing tablets are typical and Vanish is another. Bigger isn't always cheaper.

My chihuahua had her back leg amputated and I went to get her from the vets. She was so excited she was running towards me falling over repeatedly, then leapt into my arms. The waiting room was in tears, including myself. That was heartwarming.

I chose Switzerland but really the last answer we are an interconnected world and no one seems to understand we only have this planet to live on and we need to get along and stop separating ourselves by country or nation or everyone will suffer.

medical profession

All over now

Yes we are.

I live in Indonesia which is a place the Australia media tell their readers is a third world country. I started wearing glasses in Oz at the age of 40. Now after 2 free (yes free) eye operations in Bali, I can see clearly and have put my $1,600 set of glasses on the shelf.

Never had any. Too many people on this planet already. I had trouble looking after myself. No chance I would be able to care for children anyway.

I never got anything I wanted in life. NOTHING at all, and don't tell me that you have to work at it. I did, but my parents destroyed everything I worked for.

There are so many sayings that I heard or used it would be impossible to name them all - one that my mum used to say is 'a wig wam for a gooses bridle' - I have no idea what it means!!!!!!!

You don't need a Compass. You can tell where you are by the position of the Sun and by the Stars at night (if you can see them).

Oh yes, it really is delicious, it make it quite frequently. Frozen or fresh raspberries and lime juice as well as lemon juice and I replace a bit of the maple syrup with a tad of artificial sweetener. Just think of this as a concept rather than a recipe. Any type of berries would be great, depending on your taste. i dont think any dietitian would give you a lecture over an unhealthy choice of jams with this tasty topping.

First One

I would have made an 'UNBELIEVABLE' lousy father (never learned to care for my fellow human(s)). I got 'LUCKY' and never impregnated a female. When I turned 26 - I got a vasectomy (which made sex more enjoyable for me for the rest of my life)! The 'only' accomplishment I am 'truly' PROUD of - I never become a FATHER!!

Our Local Council has got itself so deeply into Debt it can't afford to do anything. Stupid people running the show, Maybe one day our Councils, Federal, State and Territory Governments will appoin an Economist as Treasurers, Doctors as Health Ministers for only them rather than ex-Union hacks and failed lawyers we might get people running the country who actually know what they are doing!

I will start by apologising to our American rewardians. Usually I don't comment on specific political figures. That said,I was gobsmacked after reading Donald Trumps solution for the Gazza strip. Does he really think America will be allowed to take control,displace thousands,expect neighbouring countries to take in these people. As well as turn it into a "waterfront paradise". This is getting really scary,if you haven't read the news article or seen him make this statement please watch it. Rumours about Ametica leaving U.N and blatantly ignoring all other country leaders in the Middle East( except Israel). And proclaiming he will be the unifying force for the Middle East. One word comes to mind "Crazy". Again this probably won't be a popular comment among rewardians ,I say this out of deep concern .

Cherokee Indian heritage here, if you do not have native american blood in your veins, you are all immigrants, get off my land and go home,,,, as you sure have ruined mine,,,

I used to vote for the Animal Justice Party until I found out that all their Preferences go to Labor. Never again!

It is all rubbish but the inventors and owners will make billions of dollars while they feed us a lot of lies about making the future better.

What the mother don't know any respect for the other people that is in the restaurant and maybe go to the ladies room or maybe not pull out your boob .

An old man walks into a jeweller's store with a very young lady on his arm. He asks to look at a nice ring for her, you know something a bit special ,he says with a wink .. "Sure" smiles the jeweller and he looks through his stock and finds him one that is very nice. " This one is $ 5,000" and he puts it on the counter ... " No no ,i think i would like something a little more spectacular than that " said the old man . So the jeweller goes out the back ,rustles around and finds him a gorgeous ring .." How about this one for $49,000?" He asks .. The young girl's eyes sparkled more than the diamonds themselves and the old man was delighted. " Yes that is exactly what i was looking for !" I will write you a cheque ,if i could and i know you will have to make sure my cheque is good of course , so you can call the bank on Monday and i will collect the ring on Monday afternoon ." The girl was trembling with excitement as the deal was secured and off they went for the weekend. On Monday the man received a call from the jeweller. "There's no money that account sir!!" " Ahhh ... yes i know ..but just wait until i tell you all about the weekend i just had!"

So sorry to hear of your friend, I hope they pull thru. Yes called a 'gut feeling' for a reason, ppl do get a 6th sense of people around them and those close to them, if something is wrong. Empaths get this (feelings) alot, and sometimes it can be a little overwhelming.

What is wrong with this person. My 1767339, read my post on everyone's comments. How rude of a person are you! If you can't be kind, then don't comment.

Linda C., you and others like you are exactly why things like this are being done. We need to teach our kids, whatever their ages, that there are people different from the ones you teach them to accept and care for. Plus, Liane H. describes this jacket in a lot more detail than you have. It says a lot about acceptance and doing your best. Plus, it's optional whether to buy it or not. I believe we all must accept and appreciate the differences in those around us....whether colour, religion, sexual identity/orientation, age, etc. We are all created equal, nobody is better than anybody else. LGBTQ+ people do not decide to be in their community - they just are. I know some people experiment just for fun, or out of confusion, but the vast majority are born who they are; just like you were born as you are. People like you are so judgmental and missing out on some of the best relationships they could have had because of your far-right-extremism closes those doors. I can only imagine the pain and loneliness of someone born into the wrong sexed body. Or a young person afraid of being disowned for revealing their true self, or shot or beaten to death because of who they love. Or going to Hell if they're gay because that's what they're taught in church. Or being shot up in a nightclub. There is so much fear of not being accepted that many suffer in silence. AND THIS IS WHY THESE JACKETS ARE SHOWING THEM THEY ARE LOVED AND ACCEPTED FOR WHO THEY ARE!! The woke movement has NOT gone too far; we are just getting started in educating closed-minded people like you. And your kids are learning to be better humans than you've taught them to be. Your far-right extremism makes us wonder what ever happened to love your neighbour as yourself and treat others the way you want to be treated?

No one should have any Firearms that has a Criminal record for a start. There is no need for anyone to own a firearm that doesn't work in Law Enforcement or a Security Officer or a Registered Collector or a licenced hunter or a Farmer. Here in Australia we don't have kids Murdered that are going to school or at school. One trip to America I got stopped by Police in Ca, the first thing the officer said was, how many guns do you have and where are they ? The other officer had his gun in his hand. I said "We are Aussies why would we want guns ? He said "your not from Texas then" I said "We are from Australia we don't have guns" The 2nd Officer put his gun away. The issue was the number plates on the hire car were from Texas.

I believe all media is already censored. From what we hear on the radio to what kids are allowed to read in schools, we surely don't hear the truth about vaccinations and what's good for us to eat. Big oil, big pharma and big food. They mislead us with fake shortages in gas or food so prices go up and keep making them richer, big food is in bed with big pharma because if our food can make us sick we need to be on drugs for life. For example, diabetes. How many people suffer from heart disease because the Heart & Stroke foundation put red meat on their recommended diet website? They totally contradict themselves. How many people in food and drug safety are actually investors in the meat, product, dairy, etc. industries... and let infractions go ALL the time?!! We're censored from A to Z. I saw a documentary on Netflix where this company was allowed to sell children's pyjamas knowing they were full of chemicals that were quite flammable. They got away with it because the list of their chemicals was under the heading of 'secret formula' and kids died because of it. The chemicals and 'flammable' weren't required to be put on the warning label. They had to warn that the bag they came in could be a choking or suffocation risk, but not that the pyjamas themselves would kill or seriously harm your child if they got close to a flame. It's crazy what we don't know because 'they' don't have to tell us. As far as social media goes, YES, there should be censorship when it comes to bullying or lying. But, NO, when it comes to Mark Zuckerberg getting away with censoring what people were able to read and forward during covid. Pretty much only things Gates and Fauci wanted people to read was allowed to be spread, and Zuckerberg made multi-billions because of it.

I don't understand how alot of people get really good points for doing the same thing as I do and I will only get 1 point for the same thing. Some have said it is about your points balance, the higher it is the more points you get, but that is so not true. I start my rewardia with the 5 point email reminder, then weather 1 point, picture poll, 1 point, discussion of the day, 1 point, recipes, 1 point, polls, 1 point. Then move onto surveys and play some scrabble or some other games for a couple of hours each day.

"Discussion of the Day \u00b7 Sep 01, 26" I don't understand what we are discussing. Is that a picture of the house? Are we discussing your having a place to yourselves, and is it the newly purchased house? I'm not trying to be sarcastic. I'm trying to understand what the Discussion of the Day is exactly. (?) \ud83e\udd14 I blame rewardia for posting it as a Discussion of the Day Post! \ud83e\udd2d

remember, a sign of intelligence is the capability to entertain other outside ideas and facts that differ from yours. :) WHY are we learning more from the European Parliament than our own CONGRESS? Not have our national newspapers reported on this. The cover-up is always worst than the crime...The best part of being a conspiracy theorist is not having Myocarditis. It\u2019s very hard to make an individual understand that they were fooled. Many will choose to live in denialThe FDA. If they\u2019re doing this to us with pharmaceuticals, imagine what they\u2019re doing to the food\u201dThere is no instance in history when censorship and secrecy have advanced either democracy or public health.\u201dWhat people need to understand is just because you feel fine doesn't mean you're not injured. Many often don't feel high blood pressure or diabetes for a very long time until other things go wrong.The European Parliament recently conducted a summit meeting about the ongoing COVID problem, and invited MRNA technology developer Dr. Robert Malone to address the conference.

My Mum passed last week, it was a shame but we knew it was kinder for her as she had fallen and broken ribs and then she had a stroke, with the pain of her ribs and the stroke making her basically immobile and hard to swallow, so couldn't eat much except pureed food, she was helpless, so it was a kinder thing for her to pass. Love you Mum forever.

Had about 20 pink surveys today....all of them ended up with 2 points...yesterday they were azure....as you get closer to 50,000 points it just gets REALLY hard..I don't know why....

People who still support Trump . He is destabilizing the whole world and they just don't seem to understand how extremely dangerous he is .

I am really surprised at the comments below, and I agree whole-heartedly. I saw with my own eyes my father struggling to get out of this world! He had absolutely no rights! In my eyes, he was tortured more than any animal would EVER be allowed to be tortured. He had prostate cancer that led to bone cancer which I heard is the most painful of all cancers, and I believe that to be true! He was a gentle soul his whole life. He made trouble for no one, was a great husband, father, grand-father and provider! His family was all he cared about. For the last two years of his life, he was in the hospital more than he was out. They even castrated him to give him a couple more months of life. The family misunderstood and thought it would give him a couple more years! My mother was devastated at the thought of it. They took even his manhood from him. He had nothing left! All he asked for was to be able to sit down at the dinner table one more time! He never complained except when the pain was unbearable for even the strongest of men! I heard him scream in pain and felt so helpless. My heart was shattered! My sisters stood outside his door while the urologist tried to insert a catheter. There was no room for one because of the tumors! My dad cried out in pain as the doctor attempted to force the catheter into somewhere it couldn't go! I heard him scream then they took him out of bed for the last time. My mother and I looked into his pitiful eyes as he begged for someone to shoot him! I'll never forget that day! Because of it, I am not the same. I know it has produced PTSD in me in some form. He could NOT do a damned thing to end his pain--nothing!!! He was at the mercy of those who kept giving him treatment for something that could not longer be treated just to get that almighty dollar at the price of my dad's suffering! Looking back, I wish I had sued them for torturing him! I found out recently that he had also asked his grandson to shoot him! I doubt I could have pulled the trigger because I was his youngest daughter, and the light of his life. Maybe for that reason, I should have. Prison time would have been worth it to know I had done the ethical thing! After he finally, died, he looked absolutely gorgeous! His hair had come in curly, and he looked like he had never been sick a day in his life! That was the dad that I longed to see all of that time he was sick. Yes, his mental capacity was stable, he knew there was only one end, and he was a Christian wanting to be with the Lord! The tears flow as I write this! No family should ever have to go through this! Please get this legislation passed. We don't want our animals to suffer, but we let people suffer! Don't love animals more than your family!!! PLEASE!!!

Please, look at the Statue of Liberty and the sea level around it, hasn\u2019t changed in over 50 years. Al Gore said the polar bears would be extinct in 2012, nope. Ice caps in some areas have actually increased. 500 wildfires in British Columbia in the summer of 2023, 450 were set by climate activists trying to claim the fires were caused by climate change. The arsonists have been charged, some have been convicted, others still awaiting trail. Mainstream media refusing to cover this. There hasn\u2019t been one climate change claim that has been proven as fact in the past 100 years, remember the ozone layer and the attempted fear with that story?

Italian pizza is the best but I have to have it delivered as I live so far away and yet only a single local (not part of a chain) pizzeria will deliver 5 miles to where I live.

First of all where do you get your opinion on, " more people are choosing to remain single and skip marriage..." ? firstly, many are (also) choosing to live with their partners, so it's not all about being single or married. (you did not clarify if you put having partners in the 'married' section.... Secondly, many people have also gone through 2 and even 3 and sometimes 4!! marriages before they finally come to the decision to stay single. thirdly, some may be single, but really actually do want to meet someone, especially if they are younger. They long to fit in with the rest of society, house, kids dog etc. Those than are a little older (& wiser) may be content to be on their own in life and not feel lonely. Those that are alot older and very wise, are generally happy with their life, and even though some do feel lonely & alone, are content with their lot. Bottomline, as long as people are happy within themselves, and their lives, it should not matter whether you are single, married or live with someone. Just don't feel you need to have someone in your life not to feel lonely, they should be in your life because you both love each other and mean the world to each other.

I answered multiple. As I need multiple myself. It's easy for people (for those that can afford to) throw money at an "issue", when in fact what this person wants or needs is just someone to listen to them, their side, feelings and validate them. Yeah, they might need money, but sometimes the greater need is to be heard, and not judged for what you say.

Well, Ladies and Gentlemen, try taking your pet to a vet and your own medical expenses will become insignificant!, how about $AU200 for just a check-up to which must be added all those 'nexessary' injections at around $AU90 a pop and more. At least we have Medicare for our own medicals. Don't even think about Pet Insurance! There are so many Exemptions and scams, the worst being the 'Pre-Existing Conditions'! For example: Your dog gets Arthritis in one hip, that is covered but should it develop the same condition in the other hip that is Not Covered as it is classed as a 'Pre-existing Condition'! It is no wonder all insurance companies have joined in this massive Hoax because they stand to make even bigger multi-billions on profits.

The biggest worry right now is that Wingnut that\u2019s in power! Caused more wars and turned on the neighbors\u2026what a friggin piece of work that is\u2026.shameful!! Got the whole world in a f\u2026ing mess!

Wudnt touch those with a ten foot barge pole. aside ftom the side effects, they teach you nothing about eating well, nor adressing why u r eating crap foods. Stay away from them!!

Define what you consider rude. Respect is earned not granted. If someone has a ridiculous opinion they deserve ridicule. Lets face it some opinions are illegal, immoral, unethical and downright wrong. I will not respect such opinions. Having an opinion that the Earth is flat or humans were alive alongside dinosaurs will not get my respect just for starter examples. I believe most people here would not respect some ones opinion that say one race is superior to another. A mantra I live with is when arguing with an idiot make sure the other person isn't doing the same.

I agree, look at the horrible demonstrations we have had in Victoria that always end in riots. I am assuming that most people that choose to come to Australia to live are looking for a better life. DON\u2019T BRING YOUR WARING SHIT HERE!

damn,, the nut jobs still with the conspiracy shit,, give it a break, this poll is 3 freakin years old, go find some other crap to lie about,,,\u2660\ufe0f

I'll make a another huge generalisation on why men use garden tools - nagging partners too lazy to do it themselves.

This is all BS. Climate change is created by elites in private jets to bring about your obedience due to fear. You've never even been on a farm I would guess. They don't want farms they want to feed you insects instead. Wake up.

if a chicken and a half, can lay an egg and a half, in a day and a half, how long does it take a cockroach with a wooden leg to bore a hole through an onion,,,

I have just finished 3 surveys from different colours. All gone to the very last page, then I was told I was screened out. Well over an hour spent on these ridiculous last minute screen outs! Screening should be done at the beginning rather than at the end, you want respondents to be honest, then you shouldn\u2019t waste their time or honour with 50 cents (rather than 20points).

I got into trouble when I worked in a bank by the manager for telling people that they would only get ahead on their mortgage if they paid the regular monthly repayment as well as the interest amount charged. My manager was very unreasonable, almost yelling "that is how the bank makes it's money, Cindy"....I protested saying, "come on, you can see theiy're battlers. Every little bit helps"....but no, there was no changing his mind. To him I was ripping the bank off further profits. I left to go nursing soon after.

I am what Linda C will be calling a fool, and proud of it. I haven't eaten meat or meat-based gravy in over 20 years. I stopped eating it because when I started working in a major grocery store I saw how much meat was being sold. I looked into where it was all coming from and discovered factory farming, and what really happens in growing/feed lots, on factory farms, inside and outside of slaughterhouses and the crowding, freezing or extremely hot conditions in the packed trucks to go from 'farm' to slaughterhouse, how cruel the people are to the animals in all of these places. I've read one person's account while getting information working at a slaughterhouse and he said he was witness to cows being pulled by machine after freezing noses and even thighs to the side of these trucks. Yes, noses and thighs were left frozen and stuck to the sides of the trucks and living cows were pulled out. Sick and injured and unable to walk cows are pushed into the slaughterhouses with bulldozers and fed to you. They are called "downers". NO, there is NOT someone going in and making sure the animals are treated kindly or respectfully. Nobody makes sure the animals are even dead before the screaming pigs are dunked in scalding water to get the little hairs off your bacon, or before cows are sliced into. The stunners don't often work the first - and only - time and the animals are 'processed' so many per hour they don't have the time to make sure an animal is dead or unconscious. A LOT of them are feeling the pain. A LOT of them see the pain and fear of what's happening in front of them and knowing they're next in line. It's truly horrific!!!! And I will NOT BE A PART OF THAT CRUELTY!! The dairy industry is almost as cruel with chickens being crowded to death. For meat or for eggs. They live in battery cages where they can't move unless they all move at the same time, or 'free range' barns where you're shown pictures of baby chicks with lots of room but unless you look for it you don't see how crowded they really are when they're all close to slaughter age. Super-size-them-fast so their skin explodes and dead birds are thrown out every day because of that. Cows being made pregnant and making babies so they make milk. Those babies are taken away immediately after being birthed while the mothers scream for them. Videos show men throwing said calves to hurt their legs so they can't run back to the mothers. And what happens to all these babies?? Yes, they are killed. These milking cows are fed hormones to make them give 5 times the normal amount of milk. There is so much pain in the dairy industry emotional and physical. THINK ABOUT WHERE YOUR FOOD REALLY COMES FROM AND STOP PRETENDING IT'S OKAY.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

It is possible if abandoning the world agenda comes into fashion. Self sustainability is required by this country. Back to grass roots, set up manufacturing and supply jobs again. Give people purpose and meaning again. Work for what you want and wait to achieve it. Put more emphasis on community and looking out for your fellow man, instead of being for yourself. Remember back when the village raised the child...we need to get tough on crime, love one another and look after the earth and it will provide.

A few years ago..I arrived home from work to find a mahogany chest of drawers on my front porch...it didn't have a name on it nor the manufacturer's name. I went to the neighbour's house..they knew nothing about it. I waited a few days, no one came, so I brought it inside..and I still have it.

The chicken and the egg are in bed. The chicken rolls over and lights a cigarette, and the egg says... 'Well, I guess that answers that question.'"

I am an American, and I did NOT vote for Trump and will not bow down to him! Many of us are outrage and are protesting against this. It is all over YouTube that Americans are on the side of the Canadians. We support you, and I feel I should cross the border to Canada and fight the US to defend you. However, I love my country, but this is not the country thopat I am proud of. You would not believe the people who are Trump supporters and thinks he is accomplishing great things! He cares only for himself and his power. We are terrified! We love Canada, but we are stuck in the middle and if war breaks out, we could be killed for what we don't even believe in. He thinks presidents do not have to abide by the law, and he can rreign as he wishes. Our only hope is that the people and congress stops him! He has already ruined our reputation. I called him Hitler because Hitler had followers also with mind control or whatever the government is using to control them! Their common sense is gone. There is no way Trump could get elected by people with good judgment with all the things he said during his campaign. He insulted women, blacks, Jews, immigrans and veterans. Virtually anyone that he thinks isn't as wonderful as he thinks he is. I even saw a picture of him with a crown! I will not be ruled. We are losing our rights, and he appointed Elon Musk to audit the government so he has access to everyone's personal information! I did NOT vote for that. They don't care what the average person wants. You should read Project 25! They even wanted to monitor women's menstrual cycles! How scary is that, and supposedly he won the election! I have a friend who read Project 25, and saw nothing wrong with it! When push comes to shove, he backs down, but the damage is done because Canada now hates the US! We need Canada and love Canada and the peaceful decades we have had with Canada! My dad said years and years ago that Canada has never caused problems! That is a huge benefit being so close to us. Trump has lost his mind, and everyone is afraid because he would have his "people" do his dirty for him and keep his own hands clean. However, he has so much blood on his hands that it boggles my mind. If he hadn't run for president, he would be in prison! That's who we voted into office, or did we? He was not going to lose, and we all know with his money and power, he couldn't lose! I am so sick of all the chaos that started on day one. If was the same way in his previous term. Everyday he bitched about something and how bad he's treated. Now he wants revenge and doesn't care about Ukraine and in his mind, the Panama Canal is now the American Canal. We have no legal right to it, and it is not run by China! He's nuts, but tomorrow it will be a whole different story! You can tell how upset I am, and I'm sure people are turning over in their graves. I'm 72 with no children so I don't fear anything he can do to me. People with children should consider moving...seriously! I could write page after page, but it's all out their on the Meidas Touch on their website and YouTube. Trump's neice Mary Trump has a podcast against her uncle. That's pretty bad! We need to band together and fight if need be. I can't see everything I'd like to say, but you can guess what I'm thinking. Congress better see the light and do something. He blames everything bad on everyone else and everything good is because of what has done. It's all lies! I've been praying for the world. It is not a US problem, but a worldwide one. People in power don't care about us poor people. Look at other countries with dicators. They were moving here, but they probably won't now. Immigration problem solved! Great tactic, Trump! Make the US so horrible no immigrants will move here! What an ass!!!

There is a big difference between alone and lonely (and you are deliberately mixing the two of 'them'). ALONE refers to the physical state of being by oneself, which can be a neutral or even positive experience. LONELY, on the other hand describes a feeling of sadness or isolation that rises from a lack of social connection or emotional support. FYI: You completely 'lost me' when you used the word THEM in your SCENARIO!

A huge achievement for my husband when he went to cardiologist and was told he now has an ecg of a 45 year old. This is after a few years of worry. He is a lovely gentle man.

Yep, You're being a Prude. If a person is comfortable in what they're wearing....makes them feel good about themselves...then go for it, wear whatever you like. AND.... who gave you my photo ? \ud83d\ude05

I cannot believe I'm reading this discussion page...Rewardia CHOSE this?...what is WRONG with you?..we have a little racist who is unaware she is... scuttling around....please take this page down.....and fire the person who approved it...

Don't got there. Turn your life over to Jesus Christ. He died for your sins and when you become a child of God Almighty you will have Heaven too. Read your Holy Bible and get Born Again. Don't wait too long or you will miss Heaven all together. Then where will you spend eternity??? One life to live and then Judgement. PLEASE heed, Salvation is today.

When I was still working in the city and had to go to work early each day I came across this guy that was hanging around the traffic lights near my place. When the lights were red he would run around from car to car asking for $20 for food and a train fare. I saw people give him money. After about the 3rd day when he was still there harassing people for money, I got out of my car and threatened to thump him if he asked me again. He swore profusely at me, threatening to call the cops on me, then told me he didn\u2019t need my stinking cash as he had plenty already. He pulled a roll of twenties out of his pocket and waved them at me. Judging by the size of that roll there must have been about 2 grand in there.. After that he never turned up at those lights anymore.

Wow, that is extremely judgemental. If a heavy woman wants to wear a skirt, a bikini, or a midriff top, more power to her. Stop the body shaming, and let people wear what they want. If you don't like it, look away.

It is not political correctness that got us in this MESS - it is racism and sexism that got us in this MESS!! Everybody says honest is the BEST policy - but nobody actually practices honesty.

I'm REALLY good at organising drawers/shelves etc. to make the most efficient use of the space, i.e. storing as much as needed, in a logical/practical/genuinely useful way to be able to access items easily, and in an aesthetically pleasing way that LOOKS organised and hyper neat too. And I have no issue with doing it for extended periods. My autism and ADHD combine, to where I can hyperfocus on a single drawer (and for an embarrassingly long time) arranging and rearranging everything to get the most perfect outcome possible. I guess I'm 'fortunate' in that the two conditions interact this way, because I'm a very atypical ADHDer in that I'm not messy/disorganised - I am INSANELY tidy and orderly, finicky, obsessive about my surroundings.... probably to a disorderly degree haha. (spoiler, I also have OCD). People been both shocked and delighted seeing the results when I've volunteered to tidy/organise their storage spaces.

Just don\u2019t reply when we comment. I wish people would chat with me. I do get lonely sometimes and have no friends. You sound mean.

I like that ..... some patrons once asked ... we are vegans ... don't eat meat or fish and are gluten free ... what do you suggest ... he replied ... get a taxi ...

Sorry, I'm in the most effed-up country in the world (USA) so I'm not qualified to participate. But at least I didn't vote for Metamucillini!\ud83d\udc7f

Mine cheated on me. He wouldn\u2019t consider counseling. Married her. I had a 2 and 4 year old. I have a great husband now.

Agree as allowing pets in stores will open it up and the next thing you know someone will bring their snake etc. Stores need to clamp down more on only allowing SERVICE dogs and there is very few things a dog can be a service dog eg for the blind;deaf;low sugar alert ;autistic child etc;.CAMPION dogs are not service dogs;nor is SUPPORT dogs.Stores need to be educated on the difference. Here in Ontario you can ask what the dog is needed for,just can't ask the person about their disability;eg if they say it is a working alert dog you can't ask what it alerts to eg PDSP;upcoming health event etc.

Reading, Writing & Arithmatic, Home Economics including basic money and its use. The teachers should also teach them some manners. A "Please", "Thank You", "I am Sorry" are the sort of Manners which can take you a long way. However I do NOT think that Teachers and Schools should be required to provide Breakfast for the Children. That is the Parents Responsibility, nor should they be expected to provide Pre/Post School Care, Holiday Care. They are TRAINED to Teach and that is what they sould be allowed to do.

because we don't care about ourselves - we keep electing the same people (personalities)over and over (again)

How can you be screened out after you've finished a survey,that means the survey isn't honest because obviously they don't like my answers!

I don't agree with this discussion, people wear what they wear, if you don't like it, stay off public transport. I wouldn't mind at all. Everybody has the right to wear what they want. People are just to effended these days. I enjoy looking at people and I don't judge them by what they wear or lack of. I don't judge people period. If you don't like what people wear in public then the problem is not them, it's you.

We haven't gone far at all. In fact we are going backwards. I always want to have full control of anything that isn't alive. and make decisions by myself. It is dangerous and will damage a lot of people. Thinking for ourselves is the greatest gift of all.

Ok so just yesterday, I went into work as usual believing \u201cyep, just another day\u201d and I was literally thrown to the floor by a student who obviously started his day on the wrong side of bed (or worse)\u2026 anyways, this severely traumatised, autistic non verbal kid wasn\u2019t happy when the \u2018ants go marching two by two Hurrah Hurrah\u2019 stopped playing (not my fault\u2026 the internet froze for a bit) And he totally attacked me\u2026 I hit the floor, (15 year old M\u0101ori kid giving everything he had to an exhausted 54 year old menopausal pakeha lady who has given her all to the tamariki of Aotearoa Nz for over 16 years) I\u2019m here tonight, reading this, covered in scratches and bruises, barely able to function, due to the mental, physical and emotional stress I endure, day after day\u2026 Yeah nah I\u2019m done I am officially an OLD woman

If your neighbour wants his friend to do it, then he can pay for it. If he wants you to help pay for it, then he and you need to agree on who should do it.

This sounds suspicious to me. Where is such a thing happening? I doubt the gov't can force you or tell you to rent a room to a foreigner or anyone for that matter.

I think you know the answer to your question and are just asking for confirmation. He is a loser and will never change - you sound like a very nice person and can deserve much better than him.

I believe climate change us being blown out of proportion. Yes there are some issues tha definitely need to be addressed but it's not the gloom and doom certain people are saying. Look at the Al Gores yhe John Kerry's and the Leonardo De Caprios. They go around in their private jet's burning mor fossil fuels the u can imagine.period.

The 2 are not necessarily the same things. Many houses used to reuse supermarket shopping bags as rubbish bags. Now we buy rubbish bags that can be made of recycled materials but still can't be recycled. The laminate on the kitchen & bathroom benches in the house we rent are fading where they get wet, but my parents' kitchen benches were solid wood & lasted for more than 40 years. I still use my Dads electric drill & it still works because the only plastic parts are the trigger & handle cover. It has outlasted 2 rechargeable drills. The handsaw I use has a wooden handle & I sharpen the blade with a file. Apparently I recently "upcycled" an old solid wood door we bought to replace a broken modern one. It's still being used as a door - it's been refurbished & reused, same as my Grandmothers' dresser made in 1908. Some things are made to last & some aren't, it's all about money, sometimes for multi-national multi-million dollar companies yet most people reading this rant aren't millionaires.

We celebrated our 54th wedding anniversary in January. I have never experienced any of your issues, though marriage is something that needs to be worked on. Unfortunately I lost him in August.

it is very fortunate your dog didn't eat them. Could they have been dropped by birds, perhaps. I would suggest putting up a shade sail at the back of your garage so nothing can come over the fence. Can you see over to see if they actually grow chillies in their yard? If you could match the type you collected with what they have growing you have a good case to go to the police with, but I would start documenting everything you think the neighbour is involved in. Just in case you need it for future reference.

Having spent many hours in the emergency area of a major city hospital over the past 6-8 months with an elderly family member it's my experience is that many people don't need to be there and are time wasters. Hurt my leg on the weekend and leave it until Monday to go to the hospital (not an emergency), got a cold or flu and go to the hospital (not an emergency), homeless locals turn up for "some attention" (not an emergency), under the influence of alcohol and drug users making a nuisance of themselves (not an emergency). Staff are amazing often working in difficult conditions. Also, my local state government is more interested in spending money on pet projects like car race tracks and huge cost overruns on others.

even without the savings, get out and at least go to the supermarket, help a short lady get something off the top shelf, listen and watch how weird people are when they think no one is watching them...I dont use home delivery.

I always have cash in my wallet and if a store won\u2019t accept it then it doesn\u2019t get my business \u2026. Then we have the Telstra fiasco a couple of weeks ago where the mighty tech went haywire and people couldn\u2019t use the mighty plastic

This is going to dumb down young ones as they will not understand the basic and if technology is down they will have no common sense about the basics.

I have no experience with Emergency Department, but they are understaffed and underpaid. The fault lies with the government and has for years; it took Covid to bring it to everyone's attention. They do the best with what's available. Sorry for your experience but it happens every day.

I have been retired for 6 years and every day is now a holiday for me. If I feel like going out I can, but if I am too tired I just stay at home and relax and work on increasing my Rewardia points. I am hoping to earn enough to buy a large screen TV.

Almost all scrolling on the phone aren\u2019t doomscrolling Nafka! Except a few negative effects, there are heaps of positive benefits of this act! Knowledge seeking, creativity, meeting like minded people, expressing ideas, and experiencing professional content you never came across before are some of the positives! For any elderly person, it\u2019s far better time being spent meaningfully (whether it\u2019s night or day) than logically, I believe! Especially, at your mature age there are no hard and fast rules to be followed! It\u2019s your time and your law! No one can dictate terms to them! Most of their stressors generate positive energy which helps more brain power and a greater awareness in them! \ud83d\ude00
