When I lived in upstate central NY I used to think it was kinda weird and comical when I would see them inside Lowes with their horse & buggy parked outside.
When we first moved here we were stunned to see them at the grocery store buying so much junk food. Not the way I expected them to eat. The guys love their wine dipped cigars too...lol

To each their own but one time I frowned on them specifically was when I got back out to my work van and the (amish?) guy left his young daughter alone in the buggy in the middle of the Lowes parking lot while he was inside shopping.

What sucks to me is I miss being a dad to my girls. Being there for them. Their ups and downs.

I loved being domesticated or whatever

Taking them to their appointments

Corny I guess

Nylons are.....pantyhose

Sorry y'all :laugh:

The most evil invention known to women
Swore them off when I turned 50. There are just NONE that are comfortable, and like WHY are we covering up our legs?
In addition, in Arizona, you could die wearing them in 110 degree weather.

Nope nope.

Ok so the moist cake situation….

I may say light. I may say fluffy.

Sometimes though, you just gotta say moist. When I have to use the word, I tend to say it in a very deep voice with a lot of emphasis on the s so it’s like moisssst.

For some reason, saying it like an idiot takes some of the sting away.

Panties is worse than moist to me. Undies, underwear, or underoos only.
Knickers....

Poor kid. Sitting there by herself :(


Though a part of me kind of respects the Amish. The ones who don't know or care what's going on in the world. Blissfully unaware.

Wish I could be that way for a few days.
Ya I agree. I just couldn't believe he left her sitting there by herself, well the horse as well, but. . . The guy inside was looking at carpets lol. I will say that horse was giving me the death stare when I was loading things into the sliding door on the passenger side of my van.

Better than the parents who leave their kids in cars when they go to casinos don’t you think .

NeelyDan's Friday Five:

1. You have been angry many times. Is there anything you still have that you can't shake off? An incident long ago that you still can think about and over which you can become angry? Tell us about it.

Can’t , Id break no politics rule and have to ban myself.
2. Tell us about something that surprised you in the last six months

my daughter getting engaged. Didnt think it would happen. Very happy about it.
3. Hey, look, you've had a baby boy! What will you name him?

Been there, done that. First was Connor. Then second was Matthew. I was over ruled on both by the Bride. First I wanted as Cameron but that rhymed with our last name. Rejected.
The second time we had twins Matthew & Sarah. I wanted Phil and Lil because I got a kick outta the Rug Rats. Severely rejected.

4. If you had a time machine, and could witness any one event without altering or disturbing it, what would you want to see?

Jesus Christ



5. What words make you cringe?

Literally, irregardless, woke, boomer
Okay Boomer, woke or not, "irregardless" is not, literally, proper English.

The way "supposably" is.

Farewell Brian O'Donavon. May the road rise with you.

Kinda crazy if you look at the radar today how interior New England has been spared from both storm systems so far. Probably won't last lol but it's interesting if you're into weather.

I carpooled with friends downtown to meet the train. On the way back I ended up squished in the middle seat of a Toyota Highlander for the 45 minute ride, during which time I realized that my body and more specifically my back is no longer equipped to ride for 45 minutes in the middle seat of a Toyota Highlander.
