    The Saddest thing that reminds you that you're old...

    It really takes a lot to make me feel old. Not when a movie or cartoon or crappy pop song turns 20, but... I'm 49, and have classmates younger than me that are grandparents now. Top that.

    The New What Made You Frown Today Thread

    Sounds like your grandma has dementia setting in. After an episode like that, she might have to take another test to drive again (if it gets that far). I'm not trying to upset you any more than you are, but trying to lay out what her consequences might be. For an 85 year old woman to drive to...

    The new What Made You Smile Today thread

    Saw "Coco" Saturday night. Possibly Pixar's best. Went in not knowing what to expect, at least three times during the film, I turned to my wife and said, "This is a dang good movie". There was an opening featurette of Olaf's Christmas, which is not as puke-inducing as " Frozen" was (Disney...

    Dealing with depression and anxiety

    It's still Sunday, so I'm still in my jurisdiction to recommend Psalm 55:22. I totally understand how you feel. I remember the emptiness of not feeling loved. Luckily the older I get, the more it becomes a distant memory. Wanting to disappear though, solves nothing. Because no matter where you...

    R.I.P. David Cassidy

    Free from pain. How can you not feel good for him for that? He had the coolest shag haircut, and back during the show's original run, my sister had all the Partridge Family albums, and played them til the grooves wore out. Little three-year-old me used to watch him, thinking he was so cool...

    The New Am I The Only One Thread

    Alcohol can be just as addictive. Kill a few brain cells, alter your mood and memory, kill your liver. My dad suffered the effects of both. He drank like a fish and smoked THREE packs of Camels a day, every day for 50+ years. Addictions are disturbing, that people will abuse things to excess-...

    The New What Made You Frown Today Thread

    Just because someone is talented or famous, doesn't make them immune to sexual impropriety. During the Beatles touring days, John Lennon, who was married and had a baby at home, would sleep with anything that had a short skirt on. The press knew about it, but never said a word, because everyone...

    The New Am I The Only One Thread

    Nicotine is so addictive, that despite the health risks people still smoke. Not because they like tar in their lungs, but they need that fix. If I understand correctly, pot has higher THC levels than tobacco, so that makes it worse for you. But the hemp plant itself has a lot of beneficial uses...

    The Oh-So-Permanent Thanksgiving Thread

    After I've been helped quite a bit over the course of my life, it's the least I can do.

    David Cassidy in critical condition

    Never smoked tobacco either, never had the desire. Even worse in high school were kids that chewed tobacco. Girls think it's disgusting, and the way it destroys your teeth and gums, say no more. Now that we no longer have Chris Christie as governor, it may not be long before New Jersey legalizes...

    The Oh-So-Permanent Thanksgiving Thread

    I've had retail jobs, but back then it was a given. Thanksgiving meant you were CLOSED. There will be enough chaos on Black Friday. Now some stores still want to open on Thanksgiving. But it's not the top managers or CEO's sacrificing their holidays. It's the low-rung grunts that have little say...

    David Cassidy in critical condition

    A couple of sources are already jumping the gun and declaring him dead. Way to go. Actually, after all his suffering, death would be an act of mercy. Not to suffer anymore, who wouldn't want that? Kidneys fail? You get put on dialysis so you can actually pee, and believe me, the procedure is...

    The "You know what?" thread

    Happy Days followed The Odd Couple's lead (for better or worse), going from single cam/laugh track to multicam/live audience. In both shows, it's a drastic change in the living room layouts, probably accommodate the cameras. It's also typical of 70's sitcoms, to see street shots of New York...

    Questions about anything

    Steve could be the spokesmonster! Just like proto-Cookie was the shill for Munchos. Jim and Frank would be so proud!

    Questions about anything

    Hey @D'Snowth, wanna make a million bucks? We make a cheese flavored snack similar to Cheetos, put Mike Farrell's picture on the bag, and call it "BJ's Cheesy Mustaches!" 8) Are you in?

    The "You know what?" thread

    The last few seasons of "Happy Days" suffers because of that too. Ruins the pace. For a while it became common for Fonzie and Chachi to get a standing ovation and screams from the teenyboppers, because they were such HUNKS! But towards the end, they were even cheering for freakin' POTSIE. Kills...

    Your Schooltime Experiences

    Kids (even as early as preschool) can be cruel, psychotic little monsters. Barf happens. Wait til some of you go to college, attend a few frat parties, someone drinks a little too much, the barf starts flying like it's nobody's business, and not everybody makes it to the bathroom before they...

    The New What Made You Frown Today Thread

    That is so pitiful. At the very basic fundamental level, love is something every human needs. And hugs are such a simple expression of love, it's a shame that people can't even hug freely without somebody getting uptight over it. I admire the people that occasionally you see in public offering...
