@Knd502 I was referring to the ones that don't have individual photos as well. They're just trying to be sneaky.

@countrylife The ones who have group photos and don't offer a clue as to which one is the profiler. I guess they are hoping you pick the best-looking one and assume it's them.

Akfishlady comments on Jul 13, 2018:

This site has weed listed as an interest. If someone puts that as their first interest i say don't. I think if that is what you want more than sex, food, love or friendship that is a complete turn off.

BJANINE comments on Jul 12, 2018:

I abhor them. I'd only use them if the products I purchased were discounted. If I'm doing someone else's work, at my inconvenience, I feel I should be compensated. The fact that it's taking away someone's job, to bolster corporate profits, makes it intolerable!

I"ve had an albino skunk as a pet before. They aren't very similar to ferrets at all, but soft. Mine was funny when she got irritated with me for whatever reason. She would stomp at me with her front feet while backing up. Short charge and repeat. Makes me laugh thinking about it. She was a good pet. Ended up giving her to a lady that already owned 15 skunks. She later told me that she had entered the skunk in some sort of beauty contest (?) and had won. She was pretty.

The Big Bang theory is not only false - its ridiculous.

@FatherOfNyx Black is not a color, at least not to artists eyes.

@FatherOfNyx But if it is expanding, it must have boundaries.

New member here, adding my two cents worth I.e. my little flower garden, shown here.

Akfishlady comments on Jul 9, 2018:

Whatever that red flower is in the middle is eye catching from this phone screen. It's very well done. Even if I can't make out that red flower.

Primrose maybe.

Naked Yoga ?

I don't think it would work for you Sheannutt.

@Sheannutt Funny!

When did you last have sex with a partner? (A 50 and over confidential poll)

DrFaust comments on Jul 7, 2018:

What does sex have to do with atheism unless you were fucked by your clergynaut as a child? After seeing some of these responses and comments I wonder if any of you get out and socialize?

AstralSmoke replies on Jul 9, 2018:

I get out but obviously not enough.

Complaining.

Donotbelieve comments on Jul 9, 2018:

I do not complain. I admire those who don't. We all have struggles, some more than others. Saying that sounds trivial, but that's not what I mean. If someone needs help, I will listen and offer assistance. If someone's just complaining, I am less apt to care.

I'm willing if they're are.?

AstralSmoke replies on Jul 9, 2018:

OK, let's give it a go.

Paper or Plastic?

Woodron comments on Jul 9, 2018:

I take my own reusable bags to the market, and one or two empty 5 gal buckets to hardware stores.

AstralSmoke replies on Jul 9, 2018:

I like the bucket idea, but I might feel the need to fill them up.

By Dog, I think I've found the perfect light fixture for the dining room!

AstralSmoke comments on Jul 9, 2018:

Now, I have to go look at your pics!

AstralSmoke replies on Jul 9, 2018:

Done! Too bad we live in different countries.

Well today sure isn't going well.

LadyAlyxandrea comments on Jul 9, 2018:

I'm going to be rational and do what a responsible and mature adult would do when faced with the hatred and disappointment of others Run away to live out the rest of my days in the forest as a midwife to wolves

AstralSmoke replies on Jul 9, 2018:

I've felt like that at times. Sometimes even the wolves don't want anything to do with me.

Oh my......it's an Monet. So very beautiful ! If I emptied many packages of wild flowers on a grated area of my yard, kept it watered, not cut the grass there, would I end up with this ? Pretty pick of a pic.

You should try it and let us know.

I think the prohibition would still apply because of the cloven hoof but not chewing their cud rule.

AstralSmoke replies on Jul 9, 2018:

@Surfpirate My point is, this post accepts some imaginative imagery as factual and other parts as needing proof, which in turn makes this a bogus post. And @VAL3941, I hope you get your belly rubbed.

They already have a name, Glueckschwein.

AstralSmoke replies on Jul 9, 2018:

@VAL3941 We should throw vegetarians and vegans into the list as well. A luck pig is not something you eat. You enjoy it and the products that it brings.
