@Jynx oh yes, you must read the Discworld series! My brother only just recently gave his Pratchett books to the op shop. I remember reading them on the train to work and getting strange looks whenever I laughed out loud.

The other series I loved was Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. That's another pearler of a series.

Best quote - "the effect of drinking a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster is like having your brains smashed out by a slice of lemon wrapped round a large gold brick".

@Jynx I tells it like I sees it 😍 Besides, it's true. It's nice to hear you speak about your confidence with how you dress and how you have your hair.

I like to think we should all have that freedom although I also do like the "naughty bits" to be covered. I don't agree that showing breasts (for women) and genitalia (for all!) is necessary. My brother once told me that he would prefer his girlfriend to wear an outfit that hints at something rather than having it all hang out as it lends itself to the mystery of the person.

@Jynx so it can be anyone that I’m get to know. I’ll use a random example.
Lady wants me to housesit dog for 7 days.

The second time I go to her place, she tells me about her spiritual beliefs.

Which I found as interesting as cold sore cream and I don’t have Herpies.

She’s not going to want to go to TOOL.

So another person crossed of the Potential Friends list.

@Glisten hey sorry i was asking is this what it is i not claiming to know or understand i certainly didn't want to offend any one

@Glisten I love that quote!! @Mustang67 I love yours too!! 🫶

@REDLINEZ750 look at pooky he is camouflaging well hehe

@Jynx thaqnks for thread, i relate to that in what it is and it is a lot like fear of flight response being activated in a public busy place and unfamiliar surroundings ending in trouble.

its percieved because its no guarentee i trigger yet ththe trouble i can get in very quickly if i did is actually very real

@REDLINEZ750 Red, you have done nothing wrong! You are great 👍🏼 You didn’t offend me. In fact it is almost impossible to offend me.

No I was genuinely wondering why I have such a quick “off” button with people.

I have ADHD and I don’t have the ability, patience, energy or desire to indulge people in a one sided conversation.

@REDLINEZ750 you are awesome. Keep being yourself.

@Glisten ha ha "as interesting as cold sore cream and I don't have herpies!"

TOOL? Now you've got me curious and this post wasn't even intended for me.

As a Christian, I must find this woman and tell her that she is to keep her beliefs to herself. If anyone is going to proselytise my dear Tomaatti I will Bible bash them until they wished they'd kept their yap shut.

My great uncle had a woman come to visit him one time. My mum and her sister were worried she was after his money (he and his bachelor brother shared a house in an upmarket part of South Perth with foreshore views, of which part was named after them. Most of the houses when they go on the market are sold for 2 million or more, Miss Maud used to have her house Three Flags a few houses up from them. She had a huge Viking head sculpture in the front yard..but as usual I digress.
Anyway, this woman would come and read to my uncle who was blind.
Mum and her sister tried to find out more about her but this was before the intorwebs so they didn't find out much.

My uncle wasn't dumb but mum and sis were still concerned so they gently suggested he be careful.

One day mum went over to visit and asked after her.

Uncle said he had told her to leave and not come back. Mum "Did she want your money?"
Uncle - "No she wanted to convert me to God. Told her to get out."

Mum and her sister laughed for days about it.

Are you still going to dog sit?

@Glisten I hope Monday is good to you.

I applied for a job working in a native plant nursery last week and haven't heard back. It was part time and good pay, plus I would have loved the job and I know one of the volunteers.

Monday I will be doing the Seek thing and pray I find something before I have to re-engage with the job services provider.

I have been craving a bacon and egg wrap all afternoon since you mentioned it. I don't have any eggs but I have the BBQ sauce.
