Thereā€™s nothing like the sound of that first shovel of dirt hitting the casket. Nothing.

Roads are icy, but you thought you could handle it. NO ONE can drive safely on ice. What were you thinking trying to come up a hill? Now the car is in the middle of the road, and AAA says it will be hours for a tow truck. Chances someone else will hit the car seem high. Iā€™m relieved youā€™re not hurt but angry with you and angry that I didnā€™t physically prevent you from leaving the house.

Relative who had covid early on and lost his cousin/buisness partner to covid at that time, now is not only showing off on Facebook that he is away for the weekend, drinking and eating indoors, but also getting a new tattoo.

Itā€™s down to about a month now. I have to stay calm but I am dreading this.

So frustrated with the vaccine rollout in MA. H is 66 and is having surgery this week to get a defibrillator but is still not eligible to get a vaccine. There are slots available that we can see online but hasnā€™t been able to sign up for them because they are only for 75+. Seriously, 66 and with a heart condition and still isnā€™t allowed to sign up. Now we are probably off a week or two more because of the surgery.

Yikes, home delivery of the newspaper increased from $158 two years ago to $208 last year to $291 this year. At least I was able to call and give a sob story and get new rate decreased to $247. I do love having an actual paper with breakfast, not a digital one.

I just donā€™t understand when well compensated folks have an unfortunate medical surprise and then have a Go Fund Me. I just donā€™t understand.

You are not more important than anyone else. If you jump to the front of the vaccine line just because you know someone and they owe you a favor then I will shout about it from the rooftops. Your entire life has been all about you taking advantage of your privilege. I will not stand for you taking someone elseā€™s vaccine appointment. I will become the loudest pain in the butt about this. I will make sure everyone knows what you did and I will make sure you never live it down. So donā€™t. There are elderly people, cancer patients, etc etc who need that vaccine NOW. You just sit your arrogant bottom back down and wait your turn.

Cousin - read the words that I wrote! Argh!

Please call with good news. Last year was horrible for you and now this major scare. Has to be nothing. Has to be.

Same goes for tomorrowā€™s scheduled procedure. That also has to be all normal. I am so tired of worrying.

Iā€™m sorry there was no Stanford commencement ceremony for your BS in 2020. Now we learn that Stanford will not have an in-person commencement ceremony for your MS in 2021. Iā€™m sorry. I plan on making that day very special. Not sure how, but I will. You can count on that.

The latest discussion in that long part 2 thread has absolutely nothing to do with the thread topic. I need some extra self-discipline to keep from clicking on it again.

Why canā€™t you just tell me what you want? Food? Water? Go out? Donā€™t use that old ā€œIā€™m just a dogā€ excuse.

Krogers, you are definitely disgusting as a company. I will never set foot into one of your stores again and you were one of our ā€œgo toā€ stores when we were in your area as we are at FILā€™s place.

ā€œDuring the first three quarters of 2020, Krogerā€™s profit doubled from $1.3 billion to $2.6 billion compared with the same period in 2019. Molly Kinder, a fellow at the think tank Brookings Institution, points out that is after accounting for the cost of extra pay and additional safety measures.ā€

Prestigious School X. Really? do you have to email AND send real mail to the sophomore ALL the time?? when you deferred the senior? Hint: you donā€™t have a key thing the sophomore wants and she isnā€™t applying and decided that last year, but you are driving us crazy right now.

I know many people are night owls; I use to be one when I wasnā€™t working full time. But even then, I knew not to call and text people at 10:30 at night! I keep my phone on during the night, so donā€™t appreciate the late even text; that is what email is for! To my cousin that did send and email, but decided to text the same thing 2 minutes later, I didnā€™t answer your email as I was in bed.
