In the seat next to you or a few grades below.

I'd rather take those two options over most things.

As Chris Rock said, "You can drive a car with your feet, but that doesn't mean is a good !@#$ing idea"

For the life of me, I don't understand why people choose to air their dirty laundry on social media for the entire world to see.

AARP is strong in this thread.

Don't get too attached to it Clark, we'll be taking it with us when we leave next month.

The good old **** list......I have one of those too. I'm sure I'm on a few other peoples as well.

Oddly enough my wife makes no lists. She wants to live like flip or flop and thinks it magically happens.

I heard a saying along the lines of "money can't buy happiness, but it sure makes it a lot easier being miserable". I like to be self sufficient and try to do as many things as I'm capable of, but it would be damn nice to have enough scratch to pay someone for everything without having to worry about the bank account.

I'm working to improve my multitasking, please pardon and grametical errors I'm cleaning the blinfs.

This is my problem right now. Well actually the opposite. There's never any time. With two young kids, work, etc....I feel like I cant accomplish anything. My mom said this is one of the most chaotic and stressful times in ones life, so I'm trying to ride it out. I think I read in the seven habits of highly effective people, or a similar book, that it's good to make lists so you can cross things off and feel a sense of accomplishment. I'm having some trouble crossing things off these days I have some work to do, but I'm trying.

Do you know any gnomes?

Ever since I was a young, maybe 6 or 7 years old I've always made lists of things. Things I want to buy, things I want to do, tasks that need to be done. I used to write them down, now I keep them on my phone. I probably have over a dozen on various items. The one that's weighing on me right now is the chore list......if you have any post them here, or maybe I'm just insane. Build up berm by steps Prune trees in front yard Bare spots in grass Trim bushes Weed flower beds Mulch Mower wheel Change receptacle switches Paint deck table Label electric box Clean blinds Paint master bathroom & bedroom ceiling Touch up paint in master bedroom ceiling Install ceiling fan in great room Light fixture in entry way Light fixture in master bath. Line flower beds with rocks

Around these parts we call it Planet Fatness.

I get it....kind of like mowing the grass and doing electrical work.

I would venture to guess that it probably is, but if you were to ask my 7 year old her opinion of the park, the crowds would be an afterthought. I think as we mature social interaction becomes more burdensome.

I prefer the drinking of beer as opposed to the making of beer.

We went to an amusement park last weekend, and I didn't really find it enjoyable. It's just so crowded. You're constantly weaving in and out of people trying to avoid bumping into them, struggling to find a place to sit when you get a bite to eat. It's more burdensome than fun to me.

There are so many terrible things that could have happened. I think back on it with dread of how my life could have been completely altered if I hurt or killed someone or even got a DUI. Probably the single dumbest thing I've ever done.

Self inflicted problem. I bought a brand new Subaru WRX when they first came out in 2002. I had the car for 9 days and had just under 400 miles on it. I was driving back to the house from a bar after having 1 too many. I want hammered drunk, but I had enough to give me the false sense of invincibility. I drove this road hundreds of times in the past, so I was getting on it pretty hard. I took a turn marked 35 mph at about 60. There is a slight bump in the turn, so I ended up wheel hopping and spinning out and smashing 3 of the 4 corners of the car into an embankment and ended up stalled in the middle of the road. I tried to start it.......nothing. I tried to push it off to the side.....No dice. I got back in and sat there ready to cry and turned the key and it fired up. I ended up driving back to my place on one 1 tire and 3 rims. Did 13K worth of damage, which was just under the amount that would have "toatled" it. To this day I don't know how the airbag didn't deploy. I thank God every day there wasn't someone coming the other way. God looks out for children and fools.

I've never had an official diagnosis, but as I grow older I'm getting more and more averse to large crowds or crowded places in general.

I'm still not convinced you'd get a 10 if you add them all together.
