Since you brought up ageism...and it occurred to me I might offend people when I say this.

I hope I don't hear my neighbor snoring again tonight. It makes it hard to sleep.

Quote:
Ageism (also spelled "agism") is stereotyping and discriminating against individuals or groups on the basis of their age.

It's not got a lot to do with ageism...

True. I just seem to be offending people a lot lately, so I thought I'd ask.

Okay good :) .
I do try to avoid stirring up things, but it always seems to backfire. I don't know how you all do it.

It's called "living life."

We have to learn not to get offended over every little thing. That's the truth of the matter.

For some reason it bothers me more online than in real life. :shrug: It's weird. Ah, feelings I don't understand.

I get more affected by people in real life than online.

I was thinking, Aurora.....do you live way up north somewhere? Like in some place like Fort McMurray, Alberta?

The man on the train apologised to me for swinging his arms around when he talked.
He asked, "I didn't hit you did I?"
I wanted to say "no" but it came out "so" instead.
Damn stupid speech disorder.
Then I turned away and stared at the window beside me for 2 hours.
It was very awkward.

I guess I don't have very many real life interactions that go beyond basic transactions. So maybe that's the reason.

I wish I lived in Alberta! That sounds cool (pun intended)!

Is there nice scenery on your train route, Raleigh?

When there's nice scenery, I always look at the window of a train.
