I'm just curious as to how everyone feels about this.

AnneWimsey comments on Apr 22, 2022:

I always insist on paying my way in all early and sometimes most encounters as many men in my age group think if they bought me a lunch, they bought me. This "etiquette" advice above is from the 50's!!!!!! I find it a relatively cheap way to weed out those who equate money with control,(traditional male-in-charge of the wittle, poor woman) and a host of stuff I try to avoid. If you aren't man enough to at least let me pay for me, at the table/box office, we have little to build on.....

Obese people.

1" from the bottom:"...[the]....overweight had SIMILAR (caps mine) longevity....." Ummm, call yourself a liar much? WTF? And ending by saying they have more health problems is probably true, becuz we all know thin people Never have Any health problems, oh, except for thin diabetics, whose disease is far more intractable than anyone's.

I'm not sure if this is a plus or not.

This dumb ass drunk man harassed Mike Tyson on an airplane — and lived to regret it.

AnneWimsey comments on Apr 21, 2022:

Why did not the flight crew 1) Not serve him alcohol & 2) do their job preventing him from harassing Anyone? Methinks if I were Tyson's lawyers I would be looking to sue the harrasser! I know for a fact if I were on that plane & a drunk harassed me similar stuff would occur & then I would sue the airline & the harraser!

AnneWimsey comments on Apr 16, 2022:

I would greatly prefer to be with someone who had an interest more than hanging off my skirts. Fishing is done in beautiful spots, (where I can read on a bank nearby), takes up a bunch of time, and leads to delicious food! Also a guy who loves fishing wants to not waste time with a woman who wants him to give it up. IMO those pics are Very helpful!

1. could tell myriad stories about how i tried like crazy to find something I needed locally (or for a price i wanted to pay) & Amazon came through for me 2. In the RV community, Amazon is Loved.....not only are they one of the few employers who will hire "transients" but many times they provide free RV parking on their grounds (24/7) while you are employed by them. 3. I have read how they require their employees to "keep moving", much as I would if I were your employer....try working in a cotton mill, where you have to keep up with the never-turned-off-since-1896 machinery, or being paid by-the-piece at a pants manufacturer, or being a waitress on Mother's Day, you lazy fucks.
