So, Annie, you did good. It’s about time, but I’m sure it won’t become a trend with you. I’m looking forward to watching the first few new episodes of Stranger Things later tonight. ---

Nothing as fun as watching a show where blobs of goo suck people’s faces off. You think demigorgons are weird? PEOPLE are weird. Watched fireworks go off last night, happy Fourth everyone! ---

Nothing I like better than working all day, coming home very tired, and being kept awake by noisy fireworks and people yelling. I’m wearing a red shirt, white socks and blue pants today. I am so patriotic. ---

Isn’t there enough jingoism to go around? Yesterday, I grilled hot dogs and watched fireworks. ---

One day, people will post something original, instead of the EXACT SAME thing they READ TWO POSTS AGO! Second earthquake in Southern California in 2 days, l haven’t felt them amazing enough. ---

You didn’t feel them because you were already shaking from yesterday’s bourbon binge. I feel pretty. Oh, so pretty. I feel pretty, and witty and gay. ---

You bump a thread that’s been silent for 10 days to post that? Who cares? Gotta love that summer weather ---

Yeah – nothing like hurricanes followed by 100+ heat indexes! It’s nice and quiet today. ---

I’ll bet it was fun but I don’t know why you have to rub it in our faces. We’d enjoy some fun too, you know. I really enjoyed the potatoes I made with dinner tonight. ---

Two weeks again! The BEST news right after your colonoscopy is “You’re finished with your colonoscopy”! This thread has been pretty quiet lately. ---

That’s because no one wants to play this stupid game. It’s starting to get cooler here, and we never got the high temperatures we were expecting. ---
