I used to have a neighbor who had a plaque in her bathroom that said "Women's Lib" showing a man and a woman both using a urinal and the man looking at the woman shocked. She was often making fun of trends.
Random Thoughts or Whatever
- Thread starter whoaru99
- Start date
The young lady sitting across from me at Starbucks is using a Mac and she put a fur coat on it! 
So, now that I am laid off for about 5 or 6 weeks, depending on how the weather goes, I'll have to file for unemployment tomorrow. Beyond tomorrow, I don't know whether I should keep my alarms on or turn them off. I could keep them on in hopes of maintaining my schedule so that when I go back to work I am ready or I could turn them off so as not to hear them for a while. Not sure if it really matters.
I went ahead and turned them off. I don't need my beautiful chillax playlists interrupted by Mike Lee shouting "smoke and fire on your lips again!" over and over. That's an alarm tone I made back before Google bought YouTube. It's an excerpt from "Deadlock" by Barren Cross. It's about drug and alcohol addiction. It'll wake you up fast!

This morning, I had a random thought. But now I can't find the damn thing. I must have laid it here somewhere. I'll let you know when I find it.

..the curiosity and subsequent exploration(s) have yet to die or otherwise be squished out of us...Hmmm?Elvis would have been 90 this past January 8th.
Random thought: Why is that some of us are still teenagers...at heart?

"Fairy tales can come true
They can happen to you
If you're young at heart ...
... And here is the best part
You have a head start
If you are among the very young at heart"

A match made for divorce court ! LolThere's this new guy at work. Let's call him Joe Hipster. He always talked about the best Smashburgers. "How can you like that (fill in the blank)? It is so boring, old-school, passe, gay, whatever."
He continuously checks the latest dating apps: "I can't find a girl who meets my high standards!"
Okay, he finally goes on a date with Ms. Perfect. The week before, he constantly talked about the date. However, he was strangely quiet after the date. A few days passed, and I asked him, "How did it go?"
"Oh, I can tell she's a bitch. Not my type. She's too Pleb."
A month later, they hired an intern. She is super bubbly and outgoing. Then, she talked about her Net date, "Oh, all he talked about was his rich friends, the Ferrari he must have, and the fancy vacations he goes on. I couldn't get a word in edgewise."
You should have seen it when Joe Hipster and the Pleb met the next day.
Yes, God has a sense of humor.
There was never a second date. Her choice. He did ask.
It's nice to hear both sides of these stories. The truth eventually emerges.
Follow-up: Two years later. She married an ER doctor and lives in HI. He's still single.

Trying to come up with a valid number for % of divorces is like nailing jello to a wall.
There's CIL marriages, people living together, an aging population and Covid which also had an affect on people divorcing.
And with the COL rising, shortages in housing, populations moving, along with astro rental rents happening... all have had their influences on people staying together or not.
"To death do you part" has little meaning, along with "in sickness and in good health" also factors in.

Why did the engineer get a divorce?
Too much compression in the relationship.
