Dating after 50

AnneWimsey comments on May 9, 2018:

Younger men can keep up with you both mentally & physically if you give them a chance. I am now dating a guy older than i...he is 73, I will be 70 in July) and while he makes me laugh a lot, he can be a bit stuck in the mud...for example, I want to try fake bull riding, there is a place only about 3 hours away, and it appears I will be going in the RV with just the dogs. Like there isn't a few other things we could do while in Boston.......

Waiting (& Waiting & waiting& waiting!,!) In seats, at DMV, youngish woman with what i took to be her father (turned out to be boyfriend) asked Very Loudly, out of the blue, how I felt about abortion. ??????!!!!!!!! I replied quietly that it was none of anybody's business but the woman & perhaps her doctor. She practically screamed at me, "But what does Gawd say?" People in other seats moved away, I repeated my original statement. Then she moved away, and had to go back & grab boyfriend by the arm to make him move too. Other people again shifted their seats...it was pretty amazing. Geez louise!

I sometimes think there is too much emphasis on science (ie, physics, chemistry, etc.

AnneWimsey comments on May 8, 2018:

History is Very subject to the bias of the recorder.....note how there is a movement towards "herstory" to correct some of these biased reportings. Sort of like thinking DaVinci could make a painting depicting actual "last supper" events & their "hidden truths" 1600++ years after the supposed event. (Stupidest book/movie ever, "The DaVinci Code").

Why do you think some people have such an aversion to homosexualtiy, trans etc.

AnneWimsey comments on May 8, 2018:

If you are a believer in an omnipotent Gawd, then the only gawd-like conclusion is that your Gawd made these people in his/her/its' image, it should be blasphemous to denigrate them. If you are a real atheist, your attitude most likely is, "none of my business" The only thing I can conclude is the haters are afraid they will somehow become infected with beliefs/life choices other than what they were taught, which is a sign of stupidity.

I tried every food additive on the market, a laborious process becauseskin takes 6 weeks minimum to show any effects....keep this in mind! Finally, through luck, I found UNsalted butter, about a tablespoon a day added to high-fat high-protein dog food.

When does hyperbole become a lie?

AnneWimsey comments on May 2, 2018:

I think real estate agents, the good ones, are masters of quiet hyperbole because when you are whining about the smallness of the bathroom, (subjectively true) they redirect you to the size of the closets. Hyperbole is taking a fact, such as " the sky is blue" and going nuts about it....making it impossible for me to disagree without being downright rude...."it's the brightest, best blue there has ever been" (crap, I sound like drumpy). So then the liar works up to..."enjoy it now (pay me) because it will Never be blue again, tomorrow it will be green". Manifestly untrue. So hyperbole is re-direction plus puffery, but not outright fabrication, and has an element of truth, but Outright lies can be disproven, usually quite easily. Good liars Always put a bit of truth in their lies to more easily sell them...or at least raise enough doubt so they have time to make a getaway. Interesting food for thought, and very relevant too.....
