sober4life Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 There's a point in life where you hope someone runs you over or shoots you every time you leave the house. It doesn't really matter how it happens just as long as it's over. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the beginning they said we're all in this together. They probably went back and destroyed all those commercials. They never want anyone to see them again that's for sure! 100%. I just read an article how companies may not be charging more for certain products but finding clever ways to change the packaging and contents so you get less for your money. I am not huge on boycotts but there are some companies that are just so egregious in the behavior that I cannot in good conscience do business with them. One in particular that has been in the news a lot lately I have avoided for years. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monicott17 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Everything totally snow covered again and going to have more on and off throughout the day. At least this time it appears that it will be short lived as temps will be going up steadily during the week with some 50’s and 60’s thrown in so it should melt rather quickly. Still makes me miserable though and I suspect this isn’t the last storm for the season. It snows well into April here sometimes. Once again, I find myself extra sad on a Sunday. Usually go out to the store and to eat and will probably still do that but even that doesn’t do much for me anymore. Maybe it is the weather or maybe just I am a miserable, hopeless person. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One in particular that has been in the news a lot lately I have avoided for years. Well people will never believe it but I'm so old I remember the times when they used to actually fill up the packages with products. My whole life they have been trying to figure out how to keep the same weight on the package by making the package itself heavier because it's made out of different materials and adding as much air as possible inside the package. Money is all that matters. The leaders of all the companies is someone like JR Ewing from Dallas. Remember he even sold his own mom's house on the show.

JD4010 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I'm very conflicted. I'm being pulled in two very opposite directions at once. The conundrum goes right to the heart of my F'd up personality. "Stockholm Syndrome" is a part of it too. I've put off making a final decision and now I'm under a lot of pressure to do it. I'm in a no-win situation so no matter which way go, the results will suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No win, does that mean both lose……. go with the least painful for you, that’s all I can offer……. the one with the least sucky results 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Often disrespectful comments can be made because people are simply unaware of an issue, or with somebody else’s feelings towards the matter. We can protect the innocent, especially babies and those on the autism scale, because they cannot properly defend themselves. However, its really important to not let your frustration with their behaviours, impact your own health. Be sure the victim(s) is safe and ignore the rest. I like you wish we didnt have to do this but in this world we must. If you can educate the offensive person without hurting yourself then do so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
