So they have missed out on immediately seeing that another user in here really appreciated what they wrote, in that post, the same day they posted it!!!
What use is having a "Thanks" button in a SUPPORT FORUM, where you only get about 5 or so to use in a 24 hour period!!?? Seriously!? :idontknow:
WHY do we have to RATION OUT the tiny amount of support "Thanks" buttons we get to use????? WHY? :kickingmyself:
Not everyone has the time to post an actual reply to every post they they are grateful for. Geez. :sad:
/end rant.
Post your random thoughts/feelings etc

I don't know if this is funny or sad. One joke is ok but if he's constantly hearing this kind of comments then it's quite depressing.
That interviewer at 1:07 made me cringe. Is that humour? making fun of someone's smell? and that forced public's laugh...

Oh my god people talk way too much.

Yeah I find it so annoying that some people just continue to talk, even after the person they are talking to. is exhibiting obvious signs that they want them to STOP! :omg:Pacific_Loner said: ↑Oh my god people talk way too much.
However, I don't mind if you can tell that the person is not being rude, they are just genuinely lonely.
Over the last decade I have had an increasing amount of really old people (both genders) come up to me and start a conversation, while I am grocery shopping.
This happens at least 40% of the time I go grocery shopping now.
They are sweet and friendly, and say relevant things about the food in the store, the prices or about the staff etc.
It is so obvious that they are just aching with loneliness.
I do talk to them for a little while, because I feel so sorry for them. They seem so lonely that they don't seem to care how awkward my body language or communication is. 🤭

Oh I absolutely agree with you. I even do it myself sometimes and when I do I always think to myself "will you just shut up?!"
But not only lonely people talk all the time when there is other humans around. The people of my culture especially likes to chat all the time. Right now I don't really live anywhere, I sleep on people's couch, so I'm never alone and I can tell you the only moment in my life where I'm not listening to someone's harmless but endless blabbering is when I go on a lonely car ride to escape.

I have more time for the older people where I work, they seem less judging, have good manners, are polite and are genuinely thankful for help.
Well, apart from the odd grumble bum.. :bigsmile:

And they say having kids makes people better... Aye, sure it does. Some, not all. :thumbdown:

Exactly, some people become great and considerate people when they become parents. But that certainly isn't the case for everyone.
I'd sooner say that having kids tests the people in question to an extreme. Some come out of that better people, others not so much.

There's a saying 'Parenting is the toughest job in the world'.
I have to agree.

Oh, I agree as well. Not disputing that. But if said parent is constantly flying into a rage and swearing at their kid any time the child misbehaves then they probably shouldn’t have bothered having the child to begin with, no? :idontknow: Doesn’t exactly set a good example for the kid. But hey, I’m probably talkin’ oot ma arse saying that. :bigsmile:
