My ex’s parents had a vette when we were ~20 and they let her drive it. It was decently speedy, but nothing to write home about.

My experience was that everyone was interested in knowing the gender, but no one ever had any responses other than happy ones relating to the answer. We ended up with one boy and one girl so there was an opportunity for people to comment positively and negatively for the binary genders. We had a lot of people comment on it being nice that we ended up with 1 boy and 1 girl, but I took that as getting to experience raising both binary genders. Also, everyone was excited to buy baby clothes targeting little girls and little boys. While my daughter has a “girly” side to her, she also wears hand-me-downs from my son whose clothes are not “girly.”
I will say, I have worked hard to keep people in my life who are good people and get away from the rest (e.g., I haven’t talked with my biological mother in 20 years because she drains energy and money from everyone around her). So, that may be why my experience was different. Although, I also experienced this with strangers (e.g., people in the grocery store were happy to chat with my wife about her pregnancy regardless of whether my wife was. At least they were all nice.).

3·11 天前Hahaha I never made the connection that this was Clint Howard! It’s been a while since I’ve watched that movie.
Took a ride by a police station. Seemed like something do. Heard a voice saying what are you trying to prove.
I thought about it an hour. I thought about it a minute. I thought about it weeks on end. I couldn’t decide.
Is 20 enough? How tiny are your cats? I feel like 45 (a big weight lifting plate) might not be enough. Might need to screw the stand on a 36"*36" piece of plywood and put 20 on every corner. I guess it depends on the size and weight of your tree, though. 25 years ago we had a cat climb nearly to the top of a 10-12’ tree (seemed like 12, but maybe just seems like that now). Anyway, the cat didn’t just stay on the trunk and we had to make adjustments to prevent a tip. Think we switched stands to something more heavy duty.

6·18 天前No, but the industry in which she works gives people, especially women, less work if they’ll aren’t at peak attractiveness. Less work means less money. I don’t really know her acting beyond her Underworld movies, but it’s less than compared to Maggie Smith, Kathy Bates, Emma Thompson, and Helen Mirren. Those ladies have lasted because of their fantastic acting, despite letting their age show.
I’m not saying I agree with the industry’s choice. I actually think naturally aging women are really beautiful and hate the fake looks. I’m just saying if she wants to be competitive in her industry, she may feel she needs to do it. Also, she might like looking young. I try not to judge people for it, it’s just not my preference.
Is it choosing to remain single, or is it open to dating. I might know just the three-frame to set it up with.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Non-US Lemmings, how is Christmas celebrated where you are?
11·24 天前U.S. sample size of 1 here. I don’t have any Christmas decorations up yet, but we have begun updating gift lists, purchasing some gifts (I monitor sales to find the actually decent ones for the 3-4 months prior, but don’t usually buy unless it’s really good), and we’ve watched a couple of Christmas-ish movies (Rise of the Guardians and Alien X-mas). We’ll put up our decorations the weekend after Thanksgiving. Oh, and I keep an eye out for Christmas decorations we like for a decent price. Haven’t found any yet. Did fine a decent projector for half off. I suspect it’s really more like $40 off, but that’s decent. Haven’t bought it yet, though.

Gaming@lemmy.zip•People are playing fewer games and new releases are "struggling", say Ubisoft UK, warning of falling revenuesEnglish
7·27 天前The reputation carried them for a while because they still sell older games, plus the occasional good new game.

Mario Sunshine’s level design was not as well structured, but it had a lot of really interesting content. SMB3, SMW, and Mario 64 are my top 3 Mario games, but I can’t decide the order.
Yeah, anyone not wear 1 million sun block is gonna have a real bad day, got it‽
Let us old farts start using it and it’ll instantly be uncool. It’s whack to be washed, know what I mean jelly bean? Totes! Lates.
Now, let’s get them and Nick Cage in a plane!





He must be who keeps driving in front of me…
