Probably 1997, way before anyone had cell phones routinely, I went to an open house kind of interview for some cell phone company who were hiring people to go door to door. They hired everyone who came on the spot, and I never heard from them after that day. The only thing I remember was when the guy who interviewed me said that eventually everyone would have their own phone number, and that was such a foreign concept then.

Sheesh I didn’t know that one.

You know me so well!

Here is a wonderful sovcitty court case.

Goodness. Imagine spending money on… This.

I think Vince Neil of Motley Crue got a ridiculously short sentence for drunk driving manslaughter because his record company bought off the judge so that they could make money off him performing. I suspect a lot of famous people have that happen.

I honestly think people are lonely and just want someone to listen to them, and when they are mentally ill this is a strange method they use to communicate.

If you’re gonna be my lover, you’d best be able to play Symphony No. 9 for me, booboo kitty.

I had a teacher in high school, who also coached the hockey team, who liked to make fun of you when you bought into something stupid by saying “did you know they took the word gullible out of the dictionary?”.

So when he said it, I grabbed the dictionary and looked it up and said “no Mr Pizzo it’s right here!”.

He looked wonderingly at me and said “I would expect that from one of my hockey players but not you”.

I also liked Motley Crue a lot in grade 7, and because I had just begun learning French decided to ask my French teacher what the lyric about menage a trois meant. It was very innocent of me, and she told me it meant three people living in a house together.

Ozzy with Sebastian Bach, Bas posted this the other day, and Ozzy’s pants are giving me life.

Not so much they can’t be hacked, but that nobody seems to bother to.

It will never go away in health care and government departments in Canada.

Fax machines will never die no matter how they are mocked. It simply is the easiest way to send documents with private information and it’s fast. At least we have e-faxing now to receive documents.

I had one with a bottom freezer and also a side by side and hated them both. A traditional top door freezer really is the best.

Or that yeah.

It’s a really good idea to learn what narcissists and people with BPD are like, because being in a relationship with them is often life destroying, and learning to recognize the warning signs and get out once you begin to realize what they are is the key to not wasting your life on someone who has little regard for you as a human. People with BPD CAN improve, kind of, I still think you should be extremely leery of them, narcissists will wreck your life and make you think it’s all your fault, without a qualm, and never improve because they don’t care if they hurt you. They will both discard you and then try to lure you back in when they need their emotional “supply” or want something else from you. There is NOTHING you can do for a narcissist, so get out before they make it impossible for you to do so. It’s definitely more of a buzz word these days, but if someone you are in a relationship with has chronically toxic and manipulative behavior to you, gaslights you, somehow makes everything your fault, lies, cheats, wrecks your finances, family relationships, etc, they are never going to change. This is not something that they have no control over, it’s deliberate.

(BPD people can progress if they actually get a diagnosis and intensive therapy and have insight, but there’s no question many of them wreck lives. I am sorry if you are a person suffering from BPD and I do wish for healing for you, it’s very difficult, but people do have the right to protect themselves from destructive behaviour, and people have the right to say no to having someone with BPD in their lives who have hurt them irreparably and refuse to get help).

I’m not sure, but the neighbours hand raised a starling who then decided we were his best friend, and I’ve never seen such a personality in a bird. He would yell through the kitchen window for me to come get him and take him for a drive around the block. He loved the car, came for walks with me and my dogs sitting atop my head and rooting through my hair, teased my dog by sitting just out of his reach and squawking at him as a joke, and it was SO amazing, but you could actually pick his specific voice out among all the many chirping birds when he was chirping at us to come outside and pay attention to him and feed him, I had no idea wild birds could be so very funny and demanding. He’s still alive five years later and summons the neighbour to come outside and give him mealworms by yelling through the window.

Panties. Paaaaanties.

Best: my cousint got married in Montreal and that was a wonderful time. Beautiful city and just a rare time when my mother didn’t act like an asshole. I was 13 and I looked SO nice.

Worst: my high school friend got pregnant at 18 by some Italian asshole, his mother was an immigrant Italian and hated her, and it was a rush wedding. I was a bridesmaid. The bridesmaids thought we’d take a silly photo of us with our dresses hiked up one leg in a quasi modeling pose, just for fun, and her new husband told her it looked slutty and not to do it. They’re still together, antivaxxers, convoy supporters, and her teeth are so rotten it’s unbelievable and sad. I know she cheated on him too. She at least got involved in a church and made some friends and took a trip to Asia, but yeah they just run a shitty pizza joint and live in the tiniest falling apart house in the world.

I’m super into glam metal from the 80s these days. I forgot how much I love it.

Groceries. I’m so sick of the price gouging. Ketchup in my grocery store across the road was 6.99 a bottle yesterday. I did not buy any.
