If 3 patrol cars speed through town with lights flashing and sirens blaring anytime anyone needs a manager’s phone number, that’s even worse, sheriff.

Over a freaking whopper! This was totally an abuse of power. I’d love to see what happened to make the employees feel so unsafe that they’d lock the doors.

Stalking. It was a typo.

If someone is attempting to use her card, maybe it’s time to talk to police? That’s illegal, right?

His mom is in assisted living, not a nursing home. My mom is also in assisted living. She’s got a stove in her apartment, she can cook her own meals if she wants to! Until recently, she could drive herself to Walmart if she felt like it. She has decorated her apartment in her own style because–get this–it’s her home!!

Plus he hasn’t said one thing about pointing a camera at his mother’s bathroom!

It is her home. How disheartening to see you think it isn’t.

Do not give your senior pet to an animal rescue. I think the mental anguish they’d experience they’d suffer from feeling abandoned would hurt them so, so much.

Do your best. Talk to your vet and ask for guidance.

We all face this, eventually. It is hard to face that our cherished pet is aging, but it’s our duty to see them through.

I do not know where I got this from, but I thought all dogs were male and all cats were female. I thought this while I had a dog named Betsy and a cat named Sebastian.

If that’s not bad enough on its own, I think I was in first or second grade when I learned the surprising truth. I wasn’t a dumb kid, either. I learned to read when I was about 3.5 yrs old and started 1st grade as a 5 yr old.

I’m now in my 70s and I still can’t figure out where I got that from!

My gastro uses propofol. When they wake you up, you are wide awake. No stoned as balls over here, alas.

I love the name Otis. It’s such a classic.

Are you living life on your own and making it ok? Are the voices/conversations interfering with what you want or need to do? Are they interfering with your relationships?

That’s a lot of questions, but my nephew would have answered No to the first question and Yes to the others. He’s a diagnosed schizophrenic, and I’m telling you about him because getting on meds turned his life around. He’s working now, has an apartment and is maintaining relationships.

I know it’s frightening, but you’ve had two doctors diagnose you. It might be worth trying the meds. Ask if there are programs that can help you pay.

I hope things work out for you.

It is exactly as quacky as quacks.

That is a rough looking 31. He could easily pass for 5 to 10 years older.

I’m happy they got him and can’t wait for him to be held accountable.

When done correctly, this is always the outcome.

South Louisiana here. It can be used affectionately (seeing a sick child and saying Bless your heart) but I find it is more often used to point out someone’s lack of intelligence or bad behaviour (Karen is pitching an absolute fit in the checkout lane at Albertsons because she misread a price label…Bless her heart)

Maybe you’re from a more polite area of the south, but where I am we are heavily into calling out morons.

So, I’ve got a theory. She killed her pup not because it upset her by scattering the birds she hunted, but because it embarrassed her in front of the neighbors when it killed their chickens. Cricket wouldn’t listen to her and it made her feel publicly ineffectual and weak. Being made to feel that way absolutely enraged her.

She’s a massive POS and I really hope this ends her career.

My momma always said when you first smell yourself, other people have been smelling you for two days.

So they’ll be hoisted by their own petard, and they will deserve it.

Haha!! I was trying to type 55!!

I think you can sue the estate, but the executor follows the parameters of the will.

IANAL, so grain of salt.

Nasty nasty man.

I knew of a girl when I was in high school. She was a senior and I was a sophomore. Word began rushing through the school that she (head cheerleader) was pregnant by the quarterback on the football team. He came from a super wealthy family, and honestly we all expected an immediate marriage and a ‘premature’ baby.

What happened instead was an announcement that she had died during emergency surgery and let’s all pray. She had had a (what we called) backstreet abortion and hemorrhaged.

We all knew how to access an illegal abortion, we knew the risks, and this girl just was the unlucky one.

She was super smart, in the Latin club, debate, 4.0, just destined for success. And instead she died.

This was in 1969, and I cannot believe we as a nation are willing to go back over 2 decades in women’s healthcare.
