Hope you have a good week.
Have you noticed the popularity of the extended shopping cart, where there is a "driver's seat" for a small child? Why do shoppers view that as a good idea?
As a Parkinsons patient, my balance is bad. When I get knocked, I usually fall over. The problem is that as I pay for my groceries, there isn't enough room on the conveyor belt for the next person in line to load the groceries while standing behind an extended cart. And I get knocked over frequently as they push their cart as far forward as possible to reach the belt.
One day, I got bumped while far back in the line. The mother apologized. But I also cautioned that I get bumped a lot while paying, and I didn't want to land on her child if I fell over.
About 5 minutes later, as I paid for the groceries, that same woman clipped me right below the knee, and my feet flew out from under me. I grasped for anything that would prevent a fall, but I landed in her kid's lap. She was livid, saying that I should control myself better.
I wouldn't even make eye contact with her - not even in the parking lot. I never said a word, but forget how it hurt - my reply was "You idiot."
I hope you are well and you have been missed.
those are all very good questions! like spyrick, i can anser all the questions about science and none of the ones involving idiocy.
The day that the mattresses are not on sale is the day you have to buy one.
and yeah I do the vacuum string all the time and wonder why it doesn't take.
Why do we drive on a "parkway" and park in a "driveway"?
Why does "Non-stick" coating stick to a frypan?
