| A lot of people here in Canada aren't happy with the USA, either right now, in case you haven't noticed. Mainly because of Orange Raving Lunatic. But Canadians are more like Americans than anywhere else in the world, and I'm sorry to say that the most Canadian thing I probably do is not wear shoes i... |

| It's not hard, I'm just lazy I can be lazy too. It's why I don't wear makeup or have a fancy hairstyle. Can't be bothered. :lol: I haven't worn makeup or made my hair look fancy in forever, either. I don't like the way most cosmetics feel, anyway. Greasy, heavy, powdery... and then you have to wash... |

| Brushing your teeth and showering too often can be bad and make your teeth, skin and hair worse, respectively. But in North America there is so much stigma that you're seen as a slob or a creep for not constantly keeping yourself clean. And that's why so many people have less resistance to disease a... |

| I'm back at my apartment with the power back on. It's a long story. Yesterday in the early evening the power suddenly went off in my area. I called up my mother on my smartphone and she fund out there an issue with a transformer that caused the outage. They said, whoever "they" are, that t... |

| If God doesn't make mistakes, then why are some people born with too many fingers or toes? Maybe some people are born the wrong gender as well. But don't bring anything scientific into a debate with someone who is convinced God creates everyone to be perfectly made. Which is a laugh because humans i... |

Today is not only Canada Day, but also the day that Americans raided a British Settlement in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia.
As someone who lives in Nova Scotia, that hits, quite literally, close to home. |

| As a Generation X (which I've mentioned being about 87400 times), I do have nostalgic feelings for things I grew up with like My Little Pony, Care Bears, Cabbage Patch Kids, and Garfield comics. But it also kind of annoys me when people go on as if we Gen Xers are superior because we grew up with sm... |

| It seems I was both very rational and irrational at the same time. As a kid I loved to swim but new that you should never swim alone, so I'd always make sure my parents were watching. On the other hand I had plenty of anxieties and irrational thoughts and feelings that got especially bad as I entere... |

| Yeah, I get anxious because unless I'm bleeding or literally dying I will have to wait for hours because of triage. I don't think it's good to be jealous of someone who looked like they just went through a meat grinder because they got in sooner. :lol: And then there the patients who literally did d... |

Alec was able to get the detector to work but unable to find the bullet lodged in James Garfield's body. Also the metal of the bed ... |
