Thinking about my next-door neighbors. Every winter they head south and escape the cold. They're usually back by now, but they aren't. Last week their grass was crazy long and another neighbor mowed it down for them. Usually the neighbors either have a relative tend to it or hire a service, even if they are still south. I know the woman was having health issues and I hope they are okay. It's not like them to leave their lawn unattended. That sort of thing bothers them. I spoke with the neighbor who mowed their lawn, and she was unsure about them to. I hope they're alright. Beyond that, I'll be mowing their front lawn for them in the meantime. It's a small space and the neighbor who did it last time works full time and has children...she lacks the time to deal with their stuff to.

You know some people walk around and hardly have anything with them.
I don't know how people can do that. When I go somewhere I'm always juggling ten bags and things I might need at some point.

^^Yeah, what if i need a first-aid kit? Or my giant pocket knife? Or 2 balls of yarn i won’t use?

Exactly

I wonder how many people have lived and died since the beginning of time

Who counts as "people"?

People people

^ I reckon the number is astronomical.

I heard somewhere there are thirty dead people for every living person. Don't know if it's true though.

Considering that there are approximately 8 billion people on Earth today alive... if there were thirty dead people for every living person, that would equal 30 multiplied by 8 billion which would be 240 billion dead folk in total.

I am unsure of the accuracy of this proposed figure, as well as you.

I think your calculation maybe off

I'll have to have that tin of pie filling for my tea

I don't think anyone will think any less of me for it

Just thinking what to have for tea. Probably battered Haddock, oven chips and mushy peas with tartare sauce.

Yeah go for it man

I'm not a one for garnish but I don't mind a bit of tartare sauce on the side

Being bullied for and gatekept from liking Elmo in my early teens and how it reflects me being bullied for and gatekept from liking Looney Tunes today.

I remember when someone told me Cuphead was for babies and I can't like it, when that was seen as "acceptable" for a 14-15 year old.

Man people can be so mean
