"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I was not at all happy to let people use my bathroom when they were here for ltc's outdoor social distant birthday party, and I cleaned the hell out of it as soon as they all left.

I think that's a reasonable response. My stepdad was 100% serious that my mom should have made my brother pee in the yard. It's the being 100% serious about it that I think is insane.

I mean, I have peed in a friend's yard due to covid rather than going in their house to use the bathroom. Granted, only friends who have a big yard but only have one bathroom.

Really? It seemed like an overreaction to me (on my stepdad's part), but I didn't realize it was a thing people were doing. That was a hasty assumption on my part, and I need to adjust my opinion.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I wouldn't make someone not use my bathroom, but I'd Lysol the hell out of it once they left. Telling someone to pee in your yard is a little over the top, imho.

I highly recommend watching the convention with a 5 year old who sticks out her tongue every time the current occupant's name is mentioned.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I would recommend making that a segment at the convention.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

possibly have her watch some of the RNC, video tape it and put it online and go viral!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

We have food year-round AND we flush the toilet whenever we want, like goddamn ROYALTY.

Ok now you're just showing off.

(But also, fomite transmission is not a thing with this virus, letting people use your bathroom is fine as long as they don't lick the doorknob on the way in.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Man, my freedom to lick doorknobs has been seriously oppressed for a long time now
