        @Aetas thank you

        I think the worst is well behind me

        There were a few pretty rough hours earlier today but I turned the lights off, put this album on in my earbuds and made it through

        Good to hear! Quick recovery!

        God has blessed you richly, so get down on your knees and thank him. Don’t forget the less fortunate or God will personally kick your ass. I’d love to do it for him, but I can’t be everywhere. Willie Nelson

                    @Giles sadly, those not to be bothered looking into the magnify glass (located next your freaking account profile) will never read past the first line of a how to. I’m all for indirect shaming however. And while we’re at it, you should be using your fucking turn signals.

                      @Denimhead-0 I didn’t get a cool eyepatch otherwise I would have posted a shirtless pic 😂

                      @tody yeah, it happened at work. I poked my eye on a piece of grass/straw when bending down. It felt like something was under my eyelid so I wanted to get it checked. Feeling better today👍

                        Where I live people either don’t use their turn signals or even worse have them on and dont turn. Had a friend killed years ago by a driver with his turn signal on who didn’t turn. I just wait until they either pass by,or make the turn.

                          Carlin was mentioned, a couple of days ago. My personal favorite rant...

                          Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

                            I feel like everyone who has never sold stuff on a forum should be aware that when someone has commented "DM'd" after the initial listing, it does not mean the item is no longer available.

                            9 times out of 10 it means that this person has messaged the seller to offer maybe half the listed price. Or a quarter of the listed price. Or a trade for a partially eaten turnip.

                            But everyone who's never sold stuff on a forum before assumes the person who wrote "DM'd" was genuinely interested, and therefore no one else tries to buy the item and the thread goes cold.

                            (I have never tried to sell stuff on this forum. This is just par for the course, is all 😅)

                              While we are at it, asking if something is still available or posting interest in a thread and then never sending a message to follow up is super-annoying. Like, why, though?!

                                So, use the Filthy Mike clause, which I think is genius....

                                To paraphrase:

                                "I believe this to be a fair price. I will not entertain offers, nor will I respond to them"

                                Can also be read as "get fucked, loser"

                                I urge you to use it in your listings.......

                                  On Facebook Marketplace,I deliberately build in a haggling price,because that seems to be the game over there. If I want $30 for something,I list it for $40,and when they offer me $20,I say $30,and they think they got me. Everybody wins. I don’t do that here,and even though,I don’t post the Filthy Mike clause,that’s the philosophy I have.
