Looks like it is David, constantly gasping for air. But then he is 95.
If the Attenborough’s are woke, I would expect one of his kids to slap you. He has a medical condition, lol

Retail flyers who's pages are different sizes. Safeway is a good example.

Who ever thought that making a flyer hard to page through was a good idea ?

Not only that but Superstore flyers are all on-line.
Screw the small print, try reading the large print.

That leads me to my next "thing".

Superstore in Penticton. Just about anything on sale is out of stock. The sales flyer is basically a list of things they don't have.

When someone, not to mention who, leaves a kleenex in their pockets and everything comes out of the washing machine covered in white flecks. :-X

This is interesting that you would say this because I was thinking just this morning that it would be interesting to start a thread about the things that we do that annoy are spouses and things our spouses do to annoy us!

It drives me crazy when she uses a serving spoon 🥄 smaller than the pot and then it falls in! She hates it when I pick massive spoons to serve with though so I guess we both have things that annoy each other in this department.

But overall I must annoy her a lot more than she annoys me because she says that her friends in their 40s dating and having a terrible time of it are stupid for even thinking they need to be married again. She says that if I died she would not remarry.

Presumably one marriage is enough stress for a lifetime for her.

I replied that marriage to her is so awesome that I would probably remarrying about 2 weeks after her death. She laughed knowing full well it's practically impossible to find a good woman these days.

that's right Grandpa Glac, all women are bad these days * eye roll*

Today I'm annoyed I have to spend my OWN money instead of finding buckets of cash left on my back deck. Sigh

If it's so easy to find a good woman why are all my friends getting divorced at the 20 year mark? I took a day off work last week to help one friend move. Great guy, devoted father, loving husband, and hard worker but she was still upset about how he didn't know how to clean the bathroom 20 years ago, so filed for divorce.

But I do agree, I was being too harsh... there are, of course, many good wimminz out there.... but I will now keep digging the hole I made for myself here :digging:
