Hi, Dave! Well, my family issues are actually behind me. My stress today is caused by internet and societal nonsense that is happening today, especially with political correctness.

Well family issues could be better, but I have been overwhelmed with stress, and the fact that people take forever on getting back to me over text.

Stress over the bull**** that has been happening to me. It just seems like my situations can't get any better.
I did, Mary. I sent you a PM back. I'll answer your other one later because it was really long.

I know things have been stressful, Mary. I've had breakdowns myself, and I nearly committed suicide a couple of times. Just know that things can get better, okay?

Wasn't around for that
Hi, Sam!

Yeah, I guess rugby is tougher because they don't even wear protection like the NFL does.

Yeah, I know you were gone from FF for a while, so you missed out on some of the April Fools stuff.

Hey, Sam!

I've seen some rugby and it looks rough. We changed the rules when we created NFL football because we wanted to make it safer for the players.

Oh, okay. I guess you missed the one where they went around trolling all the boards acting like pirates. That was funny.


I hope you're doing okay, Mary!

I just think life is getting more ridiculous each day that I'm living. I mean it is taking forever to loose weight. I almost lost my car insurance. People are getting dumber. Karma is taking forever. People don't text back and don't stick to their word. Ridiculous companies are still running.

Ms. Mojo from YouTube needs to stop romanticizing abuse in their videos. They should stop being so hard on Ross Geller and Ted Mosby while giving characters like Chuck Bass, Barney Stinson, and Joey Tribbiani a free pass. I mean Ross and Ted worked for everything that was given to them. They are intelligent, and intelligence is an attractive trait. Being a womanizing scumbag isn't the packaged deal with the least amount of intelligence in the three shows.

Oh, apparently there are more Rachel Greens out there than Monica Geller Bings.

Losing weight is difficult at first, Mary. But once you get into a regular routine you can drop off the pounds much faster. Your body is used to burning calories at a certain rate. You have to get your body used to taking in a different amount of calories and burning calories more often by eating healthier and getting more regular exercise. It seems slow at first, but that's because your body is used to the routine you once had. Once you get your body accelerated to a new routine you'll see the results.

So you still have your car insurance then? I'm glad that you didn't lose it. Yes, people are getting dumber, but there's little you can do about that. I can't do anything about it either, and stressing about what you can't control is not healthy. Also, don't wait around for Karma to happen. It happens in its own good time. Just focus on doing what's best for you and making your life better. Are your family members not getting back to you? As for the companies, I'm with you on that.

Well, I don't lump Joey in the same category as those other guys, but I definitely agree with you on that. Those people are more or less wish-fulfillment types who think they can tame the bad-boy. I think in real life there are more Monicas than Rachels.

maybe if they're teenagers but I can give a million reasons why I prefer Barney over Ted and Ross and it definitely wouldn't be because I think I can fix him, come on.

also, what's wrong with Rachel. she's smart and headstrong, how is that a bad thing?! I like Monica and Rachel about the same but in real life, Monica would definitely get on everyone's nerves, Barney too for that matter. both characters are pretty out there.

Well, I'm not sure how many guys like that even exist in real life, Katie.

As for Rachel, I think that she was a bit selfish and immature at the beginning, although she became a lot more responsible as time went on. But she still had too much of the daddy's little girl thing when she first got together with Ross, and it took a while for her to get rid of that. I think Monica was a lot more responsible, even though she was obsessive-compulsive and always felt like she could never live up to her mother's standards.

So have Rugby, since you can't shoulder charge anymore

I did too

I think a lot of TV characters would get on everyone's nerves in RL

I went to see it today as part of the buy one get one free promo that Regal cinemas last last weekend.... used a gift card to see Captain Marvel Saturday and saw this one almost free today. I've been saying Shazaam all evening hoping to get bigger and gain supers. :lo:

I agree with the critics as the movie paying homage to a classic movie called "Big" [Tom Hanks] and Stranger Things

8/10 for me... light hearted super hero movie wish some suspense and scary moments... but it brings out the kid inside all of us

I've been cutting out the sugar. I have been walking around more as well as some pilate sit ups, and been trying to do more activity.

WHat family members are you referring to?

What I'm trying to say is that Ross isn't as bad as Joey. He's more of a romantic guy than Joey is, and is a hell a lot more intelligent. Women just need to understand that aren't rehabilitation centers for men. Get a man who you can take care of and who can take care of you at the same time. Ted isn't selfish, Barney is. Ross isn't selfish, Joey can be. Dan isn't selfish, Chuck really is. Chuck, Barney, and somewhat Joey should stop getting a free pass. There are intelligent people out there who work for everything they've got, get bad luck, and are good people.

My boyfriend says there are more Rachels out there than Monicas when I was watching that video, which disappoints me because it should be the other way around.
