Whatever: The Open Lines Thread

[Aquarius]

Marital Unit is very stoic, but I am always mindful.
Thank you for your kind words

You're most welcome, Dynamo. Sometimes it takes time. Today is my nephew's birthday, the one who committed suicide four years ago in March. I feel quite sad and reflective about him, and for some reason images of him as a toddler keep popping up unexpectedly in my mind, as I was very close to him when he was younger.

Truth is, he's probably happier over there (wherever "there" is), on the other side than he was here. Each year gets a little less hard, and soon I expect the measurement will switch over to gradually getting easier.

I wish I would stop getting only ads for Mazdas! I'm not looking for a car, and don't like Mazdas anyway! No offense to anyone who has one, btw. 

The algorithms are persistent! My name is Fancy Lady BOOTS. It should not be hard to figure out what to try and sell me.

I'm so sorry, Aquarius.

Aha! Tonight I finally got... BeautyCounter! Makeup and stuff, clicked on it immediately in the hopes that the AI will decide to send me more interesting things than cars..  and then got an ad for a Subaru. Sigh.

Thanks kindly, FLB.

And may you get shoe and boot ads soon!

I finally got a line up of metallic loafers from Macy's. It must have noticed that I've been considering some gold mules I saw on sale. Good algorithm!

I agree! It's too bad I'm not musical.

So sorry to hear of your nephew’s death. Memories of him as a toddler must be bitter sweet. Suicide leaves the loved one with so many questions. With the Christmas Season upon us, I think back on those who are no longer on this earth. I believe in “life after death” and that universe is a better place than here.

Since playing hockey is big in my family, I buy lots of NHL items on line for gifts. Most of my ads are for the things I buy on line. If feels like I am being stalked. They do try to figure you out. Thank God, I do not get fish ads. Fancy boots ads sounds like nice ads.

I bought about $200 of canned food and brought it to the local food bank.
Pull up at drop off and hand 3 boxes to the guy at the door.
He says, "Is that it?"
I hope Santa shits in your turkey while you sleep, greedy food bank guy.

Went to a restaurant in Lionshead last night. They only had three types of poutine on the menu.

There should only be one type!

You got your fries.
You got your cheese curds.
You got your gravy.

STICK TO THE BASICS!

I tried to explain that to the waitress. She threatened to call the police if I continued to refuse to sit down. They did not seem to understand the concept of HOF immunity.
